Oh, I’ve got Shaoxing wine and some sherry. Had no idea that’s how they were made. Thanks for sharing!

What is a dry yeasted cooking alcohol? I’ve got nutritional yeast and baking yeast, but I’ve never heard of dry yeasted alcohol

Another vote for WalkScape! I’m doubling my walking time since joining, and it’s feeds the “gotta chop 100 birch trees” part of my brain.

Time to break out the grow lights I guess. I had no idea they could turn purple, it freaked me out! The specks on the leaves are just soil from me planting another plant next to it, just haven’t dusted it off yet. Is it okay to replant it while it’s fragile?

Not sure if this counts, but the way I chop my onions and garlic changed after watching a Joshua Weissman video on it. Leaving the end on to hold it all together while I chop was so genius I don’t even remember how I chopped them before. Especially easier to thinly slice onions. Also learning my spices so I can spice mostly by smell. Makes it easier when I’m experimenting to just smell the pan and know which spice I should add to make it taste better.

I have never heard of water kefir, just the bottled raspberry kefir I see next to milk. Where can I find these grains?

I was considering that, but I wasn’t sure how useful they are? Like, it seemed that people either swear they worked or said they were the equivalent of praying to the old gods for better digestion. Figured food was probably a more reliable path.

I believe I did as a very young child. 10/10 would recommend all kids to eat.
