anyone have experience using sourdough starters in bread machines?

I tried it once for the hell of it with no dry yeast and it was way under fermented. I guess you could up the levain content and eventually get something that would rise properly, but all the proper recipes I've seen just cheat and use dry yeast in conjunction with levain. Really at that point, I think you're better off using unfed starter just to get the flavor and letting the dry yeast do the work since active starter has a much less pronounced flavor. For pure levain bread I've gone entirely to overnight ferments or proofs anyhow so I don't see any value in trial and erroring a breadmaker recipe with active starter.

I'd love to be proven wrong if anyone has done or wants to do the work though.

It's weird that I can't find a rice-to-water ratio in weight. We've got the science of brewing coffee down to an exact 1/16 grams of coffee to water but the sagely wisdom for rice is still twice the water, making certain you use the same device for dry ounces to fluid ounces so you get that nice pudding texture as the kernels blow out and fuse together in a homogeneous lump of starch.

Maybe you can't, but Zojirushi sure can.

So, please don't dox me ... but this stupid gay comedy forum helped me form a relationship with my stepdaughter with cooking. One of the first serious cooking projects we did together was the absolutely ridiculous chicken-cheese thread here in Goons With Spoons where we did sous-vide chicken breasts with homemade pasta and an alfredo sauce, and that has led to her becoming quite the accomplished pasta maker and baker. She was featured on tonight's MasterChef episode and got a white apron from Gordon Ramsey. Thank you all for the education.

Wow, congratulations.

for how much I shamed people for not cooking for themselves years ago, I rarely cook these days, and when I do, it's not nearly as enjoyable as it used to be. Adulting sucks. Commuting sucks. Most days I just want food to magically appear so yeah, we eat out a lot.

We both work and commute so time is tight. We still manage to get by with a combination of cooking and buying prepared stuff on the way home. Weekends we all cook together and do prep for the week, but weekdays can be stressful.

My hangovers are getting worse and worse, to the extent that a glass of wine with dinner gives me a headache the next day. I am trying various cures to see what helps, and there are a couple of very promising avenues. One thing I haven’t tried is a prairie oyster, which I kind of just want to try anyway, regardless of efficacy.

One thing I want to know is this: in principle, is there any reason I couldn’t make it the night before and have it waiting in the fridge when I get up?

Prarie oysters work for me. Also, I don't think it's possible to get a hangover off a glass of wine, you might be having bigger general hydration issues.

Holy poo poo I love mustard. My favorite is usually Lowensenf Extra but yesterday my butcher recommended Zakuson because I wanted something hotter and wow this is the hottest mustard I've ever had. It's gonna be good on brats but not gonna use too much because wow will it open up your sinuses. Also I love that the logo is an disapproving Russian lady in a babushka. What's your favorite mustard? In my fridge I currently have:

Zakuson
Lowensenf
Dijon
Honey Mustard
Plochman's Yellow Mustard
Spicy brown
Inglehoffer Stone ground
Coleman's (english and dry is in my spices)

I think I have a mustard problem.



Have you ever tried Chinese mustard?

I should have said this sooner, but your tragedy kind of brought it into focus.

I've always enjoyed your posting and your willingness to throw yourself out there which is a courage a lot of people on this forum don't possess. You've always been eager to listen and learn, and even more than that you've done so.

I wish you the absolute best, and I can tell you with confidence your parents are proud of you because I, a random rear end in a top hat on the internet, am also proud of you. You're a credit to this forum.

Don't be surprised if you have some PTSD-like symptoms. Especially if it was sudden and unexpected. Even when things settle down a little more, you may have trouble sleeping, nightmares, greater anxiety, panic attacks, etc. I'm not trying to scare you, because you might not have anything like that! But I did with a very unexpected death in my family, and it was like holy poo poo, what's happening to me? Because I had never had a panic attack before. Make sure you take care of yourself right now, that's super important.

After my dad died I had dreams for months that he had faked his death to avoid legal troubles. He had never had any legal troubles. Brains are weird.

The one word of consolation I can offer is that it does get better. It's never gonna be quite right, but it does get better.

I've bought a bottle of kewpie mayonnaise before. You can put it on fried rice, white rice, fried chicken, braised meat, beef liver, chicken breast, chinese leftovers, shrimp, soft shell crab, fish, anything but italian/indian food honestly. If I grew up with it and wasnt self conscious to avoid it it's seriously appealing stuff. I don't think it's healthy that it's a thing that is put on everything ofc.

Ranch I just don't get, it's like mayonnaise without the things i like about mayonnaise.
