>Trump isn't blameless but his administration fucked up far less than the Biden administration did and this was when the US GDP contracted by TWENTY EIGHT PERCENT in a single quarter.

That's because Trump was just laying the groundwork. But hey, let's all come back to this topic in 4 years time. I'm sure Trump is going to do so many great things that you'll be drowning in high quality cheap orange juice! Good times are ahead!

/ck/ I'm being transferred to another location at work, I'm completely alone there. There is nothing there, it is at the bottom of the world. There is no kitchen in the location, microwave absolutely nothing. There is no delivery service or bakery either. Apart from my office, there isn't even any heating in the workshop.

I don't feel like freezing my ass off all day in the winter and eating nothing but cold sandwiches.

I can organize my time there freely, I only have to work 8 hours with a 1 hour break. I was thinking about buying a slow cooker so I could be there 20-30 minutes earlier to prepare a stew. then log into the system and work. so that I can eat something warm during my lunch break.

Slow cookers aren't that well known in youropoor, any recipes you can recommend? Is it even a good idea to use a slow cooker?

>Is it even a good idea to use a slow cooker?
During work? Not the best idea. Consider an induction plate, it can be controlled by time, heat and power. I cook during work, only a few minutes needed. When the food is ready it beeps. You can e.g. cook eggs for 10 minutes and after the cooling down you can checkout for meal. Works very well forme (have two plates) and my espresso is made same way (with an induction suited can).

I've made chicken and sausage gumbo tons of times and I thought for this thankgiving instead of feeling left out I made a small amount that is just vegan for one of my inlaws.

I looked up a few recipes but I didn't like them too much (including dice tomato or other things I wouldn't go for a cajun flavor).
So if you got any ideas that would be similar in mouthfeel or flavor to a chicken sausage gumbo I'd be down

My idea so far for about 1 gal
Typical roux and trinity (with garlic and jalapeno also added) I do for a gumbo with the usual beer to deglaze before adding the veggie stock
Some chickpeas and darkred kidney beans (15oz can of each)
Sliced mushrooms (may dice them and add them with the trinity to cook them down even more)
Babycorn and waterchestnuts (16oz cab of each)

I wanted to avoid peas and carrots to not just look like a stew
But am on the fence on cauliflower

You need some type of smoked sausage for it to be gumbo. Get one of these plant-based meat products or look into making your own out of seitan, it's not difficult.
>>
>>20983646
can't speak for chicken/pork alternatives, but plant-based sausages in my experience tend to be very firm in texture and would handle being seared and boiled.

I'll give it a try
I'll at least pansear it first just to be sure.
And I'll hold off on some of the canned veggies I aleady got to make sure it doesn't end up just looking like a crowded stew until I see hiw much space I still got.

Based soap maker, I strain down my bacon grease and mix with the cheapest shittiest olive oil and a tablespoon of coconut oil to soften it and increase lather. 1/2lb of lard + 2 cups of olive oil is enough to make like a pound of soap that lasts almost a year.
How do you sell your soap. Use any add-ins, or just as is? I'd like to do the same.
>>
>>20984356
haven't sold any soap but I plan to. winter market is coming up. I'm already selling moose meat
thanks for the coconut oil tip
>>
>>20984361
I forget the percent but 1-2 spoonfuls of coconut helps create a foam when using the soap rather than the sticky sickness of Castile style soap. Like you said, animal fat is too hard, so it also doesn't spread too well, so if you're using cheap homemade animal fats for soap, it helps to make it much more useable.

yeah I'll probably have to experiment. I found this page on purifying: https://bumblebeeapothecary.com/how-to-render-and-purify-tallow-so-that-it-is-odorless-and-white/
TL;DR: use saltwater to pull out impurities. this is a common thing in chemistry as well, where two immiscible liquids and sometimes a salt are added to separatory funnel, shaken and then let settle and each layer drained off
>The biodiesel stuff is cool as fuck too but that's above my DIY/chemistry level.
it's not terribly complicated beyond having to heat it to around 50°C and leaving it for a couple of hours, then gravity separating

What's your chocolate chip cookie recipe? I'm looking for a cookie recipe that spreads well when baking, has a nice chew and is gooey inside.

>>
>>20983703
I think they're on the chewy side yeah. Sadly I don't have any pic at hand.
I think it also depends on the shape you give em before putting into the oven. I usually make a big salami with the dough, wrap it, and refrigerate. After some hours I just cut it in ~2cm thick slices, and into the oven they go while they're still cold.
Maybe make half the recipe and try for yourself

I had one popty ping since uni twenty+ years ago but it b0rked a few years ago. Missus forgot to unplug it, picked it up to move it so she could clean under it and when it reached the end of the cord, it snapped out of her hands, onto the floor, breaking it and smacking her knee as it went down.
We've had this one since 2018 and it's been nothing but trouble the entire time.
At least I still have my minifridge from uni. It's still going strong. We keep it in the garage and use it for drinks.
