augh, the garlic too?! Curses. </3

It would probably be tasty without, but I admit I've not tried it that way. Drat, I was excited I found an onion-free recipe in my heap for you. :D

Would also work over any other protein, I reckon. I throw vegetables in sometimes, often onions but I know you're dodging those, mushrooms would work. Eat it over a pile of rice or noodles. I make this as often as D. will eat it.

1.5lb ~ 2/3kilo
1/3c. ~ 80mL
tablespoon and teaspoon by kitchen cutlery terms.

Brown the hamburger, drain off excess fat, add everything else in. Add a little cornstarch if you want the sauce thicker. I often do a double batch of the sauce.

I was putting a recipe back in the drawer just now and realized it might work for you. It's Korean(-ish) beef.

1.5lb hamburger
7 cloves garlic (~1 tbsp minced)
1/3c. soy sauce
1/3c. water
1/3c. brown sugar
1 tbsp. sesame oil
1 tbsp. minced ginger (~1tsp powder)
1 tsp. red pepper flakes

(cont'd)

so much this. I have a friend who landed on the discover feed for daring to share cute pictures of her pets and her reward is... well, you see it, too. It feels very unfair.

on one hand, thrilled more people get to be familiar with your work. on the other hand, the roiling mass of jerks that come in off the discover feed. -.-

Yeah, much like chicory. Caffe (caffa?) d'orzo. It's roasted and then ground into a powder. I brew it in my french press on nights where I want something heartier to drink than a herbal tea, but also want to sleep that night.

I really enjoyed some of the responses he got to that, but I'd still like to slap him with a trout.

Damn, that sounds delicious. Love me some barley in a soup, but never once considered it in a miso broth instead of beef. TO THE SOUP MINES!

(very unrelated, on matters of barley, have you ever had the Italian barley coffee? I've gotten fond of it.)

I want to mention this one too, even though I'm only ever watching it, not playing it. I'm Very Not Good at this sort of game, but gosh it's a treat to watch. The level design, the music, the /everything/. I think it's really worth a look.

I'm often watching him play, and it'll get right into a frantic combat moment and then- (sound of screenshot in Steam as game is paused) "One sec, I found a bug."

Love me a dill pickle chip. I can't imagine dill pickle ranch, but I'd try it.

It's so damn weird and frustrating. Like it's the first time they haven't been patted on the head and praised in their life, or something. If it was solid technique advice when you were looking for ideas, it'd be one thing, but... ah, I'm preaching to the choir, carry on being excellent. :D

Guess that means it's time for me to read the original work and do some compare-and-contrast!

Some dudes just completely melt down when their suggestions are shot down. I'm sorry you're dealing with a flood of it. I'm always delighted to see another post of yours.

Oh, I bet it's the most delicious tea ever, and also one that wants to slapfight with my prescription, then. Isn't that always the way? :D I appreciate the heads-up, tho, I will do some research before buying any. <3!

Sorry I'm not more open-minded about LLMs, it's just some fucking maniacs shoveled out a bunch of useless bloatware featuring that technology, did not give me any chance to opt out, reorganized the entire economy around it, zeroed out gains made by green energy, and made it impossible to buy RAM

I somehow missed it on the list of ingredients. </3 The rest is all good, but... ugh, chamomile just tasts rank to me.

Time to just buy dried bits and steep them myself, I guess. I'm just trying to establish some bedtime routines and a nice tea seemed like an easy choice.

I'll see if I can't find some nettle tea! I don't mind a, well, green/leafy flavour, there's just something extra in chamomile that tastes like regret to me. This one has lavender and a couple other nice things in it, I just missed chamomile was in the mix, too. </3

My kingdom for a sleepytime/nighttime/calming tea that doesn't contain chamomile. (It tastes like a dirty wet dog squeezed out into a cup, to me.)
