No, there are various content farm groups that spam poor content onto social media for profit. They make shitty content quick and don't care about accuracy/taste, so they can poop out tons of these things. Then other tubers come in and debunk their shit slop.

Just tried Marco Polo. So far, it is not as amazing as I remembered it to be. I used the recommended brewing ratios on Mariage Frere's website: 200ml, 2.5g of leaf, and 95C water for 5 minutes. I think that was not enough leaf, however. I got notes of strawberry, raspberries, chocolate, and vanilla. It was pleasantly sweet like a dessert -- yet, it was not sickly sweet. It was also not perfume-y despite being a flavored tea. I will eventually try this at 4g of leaf at 5 minutes or 4g of leaf at 3 minutes.
Will try Wedding Imperial and French Breakfast tomorrow.
Then, I also got the 2025 Old Way's Tea Oolong Sample Set

I tried out the Shui Xian. I used a whole 8 gram package for 100ml of water at 100C. Brewed at 15s, 20s, 30s, 45s, 1 min, 2 min, 4 min, 8 min. I got a very clear mineral note that reminded me of San Pellegrino mineral water. I also got notes of sweet potato (the most dominant note,) baked bread, and maybe wood. The wet leaves smelt roast-y, like charcoal, and dark chocolate. Should I be using less leaf? I found that the strength wasn't too bad. What else should I try next in my set?

Do you catch or hunt your own food? And if you do, did you make something yummy with it?

I would like to hunt but I'm poor so whenever I find a game dead on the side of the road I put it in a bag and eat it.
I would have liked saying:
>we'll see if I die
but it was a month ago. I found a coypu, he was dying of cold. I came back 6 hours later he was dead at the same place.
I took it. When I cut his belly open a sticky stinky light green batter poured, like an entire liter. I feared dying if I ate the inside, could have been contaminated or something. I still don't know what it was. ChatGPT told me it was bile and it was probably nothing, but thing is I checked, bile is present in very low quantity, so it was probably wrong. I usually eat the animal entirely but this time I only ate the 4 legs. It was terrible, despite the fact I washed it during several minutes under the water in the sink, the meat was full of hair from the fur.
Next time I wash it in the bathtub to entirely remove any hair.

This will be is first serious thread I've made here. Gotten a few three day bans for trolling.

Believe it or not, I'm 39 years old, and I have barely used an oven in my whole entire life. The reason why makes me sound like an absolute stone cold retard. Well, I'm on the spectrum, which means I'm weirdly smart with certain things and weirdly stupid with others (like using an oven, for example)

I've barely used an oven because I got confused by the "preheating" instructions. I was like "preheat? what's that?"


Well, last month, I had a severe manic episode, and one thing I've learned about myself is that it takes a severe manic episode to make me wanna do normie shit like socializing and preparing food that isn't microwaved.

So anyhoo, the mania hasn't worn off yet, so what the fuck should I do with my newfound oven prowess before the depression sets in and I go back to microwaving frozen taquitos?

the fuck do you mean? you turn the oven on and it tells you when it's hot. if you're being insane (no judgement, been there) give it an hour or use a thermometer.
>>
>>21788812
>preheat
Literally warming things up to desired temps. You do this with stuff like cast iron too and grills. It's "start the fire" level shit. This is done to remove heating variables that vary widely across homes and geographical climate areas.

You CAN bake without a preheat. But the time to warm up an oven varies so much based on time of year and position, recipe writers removed that variable and set a designated starting point for when you put food into a hot box. Which of course was included as an electronic feature on any modern oven to alert you that preheat is done.

And yes, grilling has a specified temp range too. It often comes labeled on the thermometers: smoke, grill, pizza, etc. Smoke is 200-400, grill is like 400 - 600F, and pizza needs 700+F.
>>
>>21788863
Digital ovens have both a timer AND a cooking clock. You can 100% have the oven shut off after a set time if you want it to. The timer works independently of the oven.

If you are the type to wander off and forget shit - ALWAYS set the oven cooking timer. You won't burn the house down, though you might get slightly toasted/overdone food thanks to the cool down period.
>>
Literally just ignore preheating. You don't have to do it. Just turn the oven on and put it in. There's too much inherent variation in the process to tell you exactly how long something will need to cook in an oven. You will have to assess when it's done for yourself no matter what, so just put it in, set it for the time the directions suggest, maybe add 2-5 minutes depending on how quick your oven heats up, and check back later. For anything over say 30 minutes you probably want to check it at least halfway through, and for everything, check maybe 5 minutes before it's supposed to be done. Some things can go from not quite finished to burning in a very short time, you just have to do it more often, check more frequently towards the end of the cook time until you get an idea of what items take how long.

American should just melt into the other cheese with residual heat but you can leave it in longer if you want the bread toastier. This is the fastest way to make a grilled cheese.

Did you treat yourself, your friends or relatives to any expensive whiskies for the holidays? Or do you plan on doing so?
For those of you who only drink bourbon and purchase many, many different bourbons, what keeps you interested in it? I like bourbon, but I don’t understand people who only drink bourbon and buy so many different bourbons. While I understand that there’s a decent amount of flavor variance between, say, a high rye bourbon and a wheated bourbon, and a decent amount of flavor variance between, say, a young bourbon and an older, cask-finished bourbon, the amount of flavor variance still pales in comparison to that which can be found in Scotch, and I just can’t fathom limiting myself to only bourbons.
For the record, I like Scotch, bourbon, rye and Irish. I just like whisk(e)y.

Old fitz prime 1978: Some funky buttery butterscotch as a result of diacetyl. This is common with 20th century bourbons because a lot of them would rush their mash into production as a result of not wanting it spoiling due to a lack of modern sanitation procedures. It's a very long lived chemical and comes through here, but to a lesser extent than it does for National Distillers Old Grand Dad products. It's delicious, just providing background. There's more mint in this one. More normal oak. It's more modern and would be less weird to a normal modern drinker than the 65. A little bit of fruit, but again, tobacco, sugar, and that mint
>1992 BiB: The swan song, since the place closed that year. Here we go, since this thing is pretty much like it was on the shelf at its date of purchase. Sugar, vanilla, tobacco, with some spearmint gum and leather. I really like this, but it's, again, bourbon drinker's bourbon without flaws or any wacky attributes except the mint thing. It's just what someone would make if you told a genie to make a "perfect normal bourbon".
>SR: BRIGHT oranges and some cherries. a little grain but it's not bad, but it's like watching spongebob after requiem for a dream. citrus, mild cherry. a bunch of fucking happy fruit in the place of what i just described. light because it's a modern 90 proofer
12yr: a little bit of the old book i just described because it's older. but again, oranges and cherries. no mint, a little leather and some solid oak, but holy fuck not the same
>full proof barrel pick: This is good whiskey, but we're back to a strong, very solid version of the citrus and stone fruit. There's a lot of good stuff here, especially the thick mouthfeel and all that cherry and tangerine or whatever, but you get the idea.
So, what happened. Most people associate Buffalo Trace's Weller lineup with "wheated bourbon flavor" meaning they now expect all wheated bourbon to taste like cherry-orange bright, soft liquor. Stitz doesnt have that.

>LIGHTNING ROUND
We take another taste of the 1992 and check in on a 10yr7m OESK pick. This was a hunch, and there could be closer things in the world, but damn it's a hell of a lot closer to the Stitzel than buffalo trace is. Basically great tobacco, leather, sugar, vanilla with a tiny bit of varnish due to the age. Doesn't quite have the unique mint thing going, but I thought I remembered Four Roses actually being pretty fucking similar and yeah, not too bad as a match. Of course it's ryed and not even a wheated bourbon, go figure.
>what the fuck is "Fairfield"? Glad you asked. So back in the 90s when buzz about the Van Winkle brand was starting to get going, a lot of people remember this as being the best time period for it. There was a batch of bourbon at one point made by Old Boone Meadowlawn in the 70s. It was bought by Wild Turkey who were going through a crunch in the late 80s/early 90s as they got ready to release some new brands and their sales were climbing. Eventually, they released these Old Boone barrels because the profile didn't match up anyway, and the Van Winkle bought it pre-Buffalo-Trace and released it because they liked it and it characterized their 1990s stuff. Whoa, more varnish. Some stewed spicy tomatoes almost bordering on that minty flavor. The mouthfeel is shit because it's 86 and charcoal filtered but you can see how it bridged the gap. It's all those sweets and almost like jambalaya. I bet when they bottled this as Pappy 20 at a higher proof, it really was good as hell.
This concludes my exploration of the Weller thing, hope you liked it. I was already drinking before this and I am pretty fucked up now, merry christmas

How old do you want? If it's 90s straight facing bird with the old label and it's in the 200s, you would buy it. It's bad man, and if I could find one cheaper I'd sure be grabbing it myself lol. You're going to need to find it online since the days of Indiana Jonesing around stores and estate sales is sadly over though it was good while it lasted, but good luck out there man. I'll try not to take yours
