i eat two types of eggs

* nice crispy fried eggs when i pull out the nonstick skillet
* "ugly eggs" when i throw them in cast iron and the yolks break and i say "gently caress it" and dump in a handful of shredded cheddar from a bag and dump it all on a plate

former good with soy sauce, latter great with sambal oelek

i have a cast iron stomach most of the time but for some reason mixing spicy with eggs fucks me up every time

the flavor is good as hell but it makes my digestive system go nuts for the rest of the day if i eat it

I have an electric stove and I make okay stir fry. You just can't make it in big quantities.

it’s one thing to live it? another to step back and think about it

i’ve been thinking lately about how what i want or don’t want is really irrelevant and yet i let it guide me all the time.

the part of brain that wants things can get hosed! wish the smart part of brain that knows what i should be doing could take over.

yeah outside of direct charring over flame (and honestly even then...) there's really nothing you can't do on electric that you can on gas. cooking techniques may need to be modified but no real dishes are outright impossible. wok cooking is tricky but again, the wok is great because it's versatile not so much because it enables the creation of things that can't be done in any other fashion

I need yospos' help, my immersion circulator is broken because my temp probe is hosed:



On the right, it's a pt100 that I've cut off and adapted to a 3.5mm TRS--only after a decade it's started fluctuating wildly in temp. I unwrapped the heat shrink and there's nothing obviously wrong with the wires.

Perfect would be re-ordering another Pt100 like that but the Amazon seller is long gone and I can't find any pt100s that are in a tube like that. Any ideas for how I can find one, or get a new one and ship in a bottle it back in the tube?

The probe is submerged in the water part so I'd prefer it to be in a waterproof tube like that, I just can't find anything like that any more.

your probe doesn't really look any different from the multitude available on amazon, with one exception - there appears to be a collar over the holder nut, or where a nut is on other probes. there are already tons of stainless steel probes available. here's one example (there are cheaper and more expensive versions, i picked this at random):


https://amzn.to/3tmucqU

of note for this probe in specific:

review posted:

The securing nut is NOT stainless steel and if you plan to immerse this in water it will have to be replaced. Other than that everything looks alright and it is well built.

but honestly something like that would be fine, and if you were really concerned with the nut assembly beyond replacing it you could cover that section in a bit of shrink wrap.
