For a long time, I thought I hated whiskey. Then I learned I just hate bourbon, as all people with working palates do.

Ratoslov posted:So what's the state-of-the-art with bad D&D Next design decisions? The two best things to do with rum are a Cuba Libre with real has-sugar Coke (from Mexico or kosher) or a Dark & Stormy (1:3 rum:ginger beer over ice, lime slice, do not use ginger ale or you are a horrible person).

Winson_Paine posted:I make my own ginger ale. It will make you weep with joy. Ginger ale is wonderful, and so is single-malt Scotch, but neither has any place in a Dark 'n Stormy.

hey guys I don't have much of an opinion on what makes an RPG D&D other than being pretty sure most of you are wrong, but how about cryomuddling up a thai basil rum daiquiri?

TalonDemonKing posted:So whats TGs opinion on Glennfiddtch? It's a single malt whiskey that got introduced to when I was first able to legally drink; during a bout of DnD games. I always tie the taste to minis, DM screens, and dice now. Glenfie's perfectly acceptable tipple. My own taste is more in the direction of Aberlour's superb A'bunadh, mind you, but Glenfiddich is tasty stuff.

AlphaDog posted:4) You know how a lot of people in the USA talk about "good meatloaf"? I've never had a good meatloaf, and I'm not sure such a thing exists in Australia. Can someone point me at a recipe that produces meatloaf that isn't bland, dry, grey, awfulness? Did you ever make a good hamburger? Ok, do that, but in a loaf pan. BOOM DONE.

Ulta posted:if you are putting Pablo breadcrumbs, and egg into a hamburger, you don't know how to make a good hamburger. Why would you put breadcrumbs and egg into a meatloaf Who would do that edit: Given that most meatloaf recipes insist on breadcrumbs (gross) and also baste it with ketchup (double gross), it's no real wonder so many people hate meat loaf. It's really not that hard -- it's just a large, oblong burger that you slice. palecur fucked around with this message at 00:31 on Mar 6, 2013 |

Winson_Paine posted:Meatloaf that doesn't have breadcrumbs is way, way too beefy. I'm prepared to believe this assertion, but I'm going to need some kind of explanation about how a six-ounce slice of no-breadcrumb meatloaf is too beefy, but a six-ounce no-breadcrumb piece of steak is not too beefy.

Winson_Paine posted:Hamburger gets dry as gently caress, especially when baked. That makes a lot more sense to me than 'too beefy', yeah. Mixing with sausage and adding a bit of egg as a binder seems reasonable too, but I am still having trouble seeing breadcrumbs as structurally necessary. Data point: I never use or eat bread-based stuffing for turkeys. I love bread, but not generally as an ingredient in meat dishes.

Old Kentucky Shark posted:Given the amount of grease involved, it's actually more of a laxative, but Chicken and Waffles is seriously loving delicious. Sweet things and meat don't go together. Pineapple on ham is an abomination, and so is maple syrup on chicken, or mayonnaise on absolutely anything.

PeterWeller posted:I like playing clerics and other types of religious characters. I like coming up with tenets and theologies for weird fantasy deities (one of the reasons why I like FR's god for every little thing pantheon), and I don't think you need to play them as fanatics or zealots. I particularly like how the backstory for Invokers lets you play someone who just stumbled across a fragment of divine power and is, essentially, drafted into divine service, much like The Secrets of Isis and other representatives of the 'intrepid archaeologist touches the wrong artifact and is imbued by ancient forgotten gods' trope. Okay, you fit that onto any of the Divine classes in 4E, but it's a great fit for Invokers, and weirdly, a good off-model for Avengers, who otherwise lend themselves nicely to full-on zealot models.

AlphaDog posted:Edit: Do you really boil the water in the microwave? My granny would have cut you for that. The whole point to a microwave is heating water; that's, like, its core operating principle. It takes 88 seconds and I can heat just one glass' worth. An electric kettle takes at least 4 minutes and a 1 liter minimum. Also, the right brewing temperature for tea is 'whatever temperature will be just barely not too hot to drink 120 seconds after putting the tea in'. That applies to all teas, infusions, tisanes, and whatnot.

Sourdough's taste profile is worlds apart from challah, to the point where I'm wondering if you've ever had any of either.

Reason posted:I want to share this empanada recipe, my family is from Ecuador and we made these for my dad and he loved them. I'm not so keen on the sauce, but man I love empanadas. Make sure to get the fresh chorizo and not the nasty pre-packaged poo poo from Fred Meyer though, that really makes a huge difference. Reason if you can tell me where to find potatoes in the US that will make an acceptable locro or llapingachos I will debase myself in any way that you like, nothing available locally has the right waxy/starchy ratio and I wind up with decent potato dishes that are emphatically not locro or llapingachos.

Halloween Jack posted:Is there another way to scramble eggs? The best-and-only way to scramble eggs is in a double boiler for 45 minutes, the way Nero Wolfe directs you to in The Mother Hunt.

Wouldn't the use of AND mean that, to maintain a rage, you had to both attack and take damage each turn? Because that seems far worse.
