Cooking @lemmy.world•What is your favorite way to cook beans?
6·12 days agoI’ve been on a bean kick since I found bags of 15 bean soup mix for less than $3. The creamy large Lima beans are my fave. I toss the ham flavor in the trash and make a batch with whatever I have on hand. The following batch was my favorite so far:
- 20 oz 15 bean soup - soaked overnight
- Two small white onions - diced and browned with a pinch of salt and sesame oil
- Eighth red cabbage chopped and browned in a skillet
- 2 celery stalks diced
- 6oz crimini mushrooms coarsely diced and browned - finely dice stems
- 6oz white button mushrooms coarsely diced and browned
- 1/4 cup textured veggie protein
- 1 heaping tbsp chili powder
- 1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes with garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp potassium salt
- 1 tbsp MSG
- Half tsp cracked black pepper
- Half tsp garlic powder
- Half tsp paprika
The biggest thing to remember is to make sure that you get the rehydrated beans in a good boil for at least 10 minutes to denature the toxic proteins, otherwise you’ll have an upset stomach.
Do you like beer, senator?

14·2 months agoI’d like her to be primaried. She’s better than Cuomo, but she was his lieutenant gov and it shows. Her mishearing “Tax the rich” as “Let’s go Bills” bullshit really illustrates her place as a corporate Democrat.

Looks great, now the question: how do you pronounce it? In the Northeast US it’s often pronounced fahzool for some reason.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What do you love the look of despite it being impractical, uncomfortable, or high maintenance?
9·4 months agoI agree for the front and side profiles, but from the back it is identical to a dumpster.
Subway and most buses $2.90 a ride, and if you use the same payment method it has a maximum combined fare of $34 per week. That means that if you pay for 12 rides, any more rides are free within a 7 day period.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is it a bad idea to let my kid's friends rent from me and live in my house?
16·5 months agoI think it’s great that you’re willing to offer help to those in need. $500/mo is enough to really help you out with expenses, but likely cheaper than they’re able to find elsewhere. Especially considering that the environment is supportive and safe for them.
That being said, I would strongly recommend getting them to sign well-defined contracts that you get from a real-estate lawyer to help shield you in the case of it turning sour.
My coworker just got finished with a year-long legal battle trying to kick out someone that he allowed to bunk in a spare room for a few months (completely free). Despite them not paying room or board they were classified as tenants and therefore had legal protection that they took every advantage of and made my co-worker’s life hell. I’m all for strong tenant protections, but there’s always going to be the exceptions that abuse the system. I would follow your heart on the payment side, but insist on contracts to protect your livelihood. Don’t let a good deed ruin you.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•This is for people who have moved away from their home town or have lived in multiple locations long term. Do you ever forget where you are?
7·6 months agoI can’t say I’ve forgotten where I am, but very occasionally I’ll see a landmark or just a general vibe of a place while driving and get hit with immense deja vu or memories of somewhere I used to live. Then I’ll get on Google maps and look the place up to see how much it’s changed.

Anime@ani.social•Takopi's Original Sin • Takopii no Genzai - Episode 2 discussionEnglish
2·6 months agoAfter the first episode I was expecting something like March Comes in Like a Lion & A Silent Voice, halfway through this episode I thought we’re going the Re:Zero route, and now I have no idea where we’re headed. I suppose the opening animation was a misdirection, I’m curious if it will be different next week.

The can of tomatoes has chunks of garlic. We were out of garlic when we made it, but turned out fine.
I’m a garlic fiend too, don’t get me wrong.
