Some say that giant Koreans don’t exist.

See this in Dubai. 70F outside and several people were bundled up.

I can’t think of any particular dishes that my mom made per se, but she only knew how to cook things that took a long time. So lasagna, spaghetti with meatballs, chili… all wonderful. Steak and broccoli, on the other hand… Oof. I loved my mom, but she could not cook these things well. When I finally had a well cooked steak that didn’t eat like shoe leather it was a revelation.

Indeed.

Absolutely.

I’ve done this, works great.

This was another route I was thinking about. Any idea how hard it is to do now?

TheGiantKorean,

Absolutely. Touch would just be a nice extra feature to me.

[QUESTION] What's the most interesting thing you've eaten?

When I travel, I try to taste the local cuisine and love to try things that I’ve never had before. Recently I tried haggis, which was outstanding. I’ve also had hakarl (fermented shark - not really my cup of tea, but glad I tried it) and balut (surprisingly tasty)....

TheGiantKorean,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

That actually sounds quite tasty! One of those foods that tastes the opposite of how it looks. (Balut is very much like that)

Damn, poor bats. What did it taste like?

The rendang rice brick dish sounds amazing. I love rendang.

I’ve had baby octopus before at a Japanese restaurant. Delicious, but I feel bad about eating octopus now.

Haggis is great! I just tried it for the first time last week. So good.

Sure, chicken feet are interesting. I don’t think most people outside of Asian cultures have tried them.

Edit: never had deep fried brain, but I’m had it sauted. Pretty good!

We switched to these also, and they work great. We also tried this with dishwasher detergent, though, and didn’t have as much luck. Maybe it was the brand we chose.

This would be fantastic! I’ll look around in my area.

My move was a Five Guys frequent customer card with all the holes punched out. Who would pass up a free burger?

TheGiantKorean,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

Gotcha. Thanks. I thought maybe they might be more durable, but I guess not.

TheGiantKorean,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

OK, thanks! And thank you for the brand rec.

I’ve got a carbon steel pan, too! It works great. The only issue is that it’s heavy (not as bad as cast iron, but certainly heavier than my teflon coated pans).

TheGiantKorean,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

These look nice, thanks for the links! Some reviews say the coating comes off after a bit, but I guess that’ll happen with anything. These don’t look like teflon - any idea what the coating is made of?

TheGiantKorean,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

Nice! Thank you! That sounds fairly durable.

Cooking time, maybe? I’ve had some dry bakes before when I’ve cooked for too long. Adding butter is never a bad idea, though 🤤

These all look great! I love pumpkin bread. My wife makes it with chocolate chips in it.
