India does yoghurt better than any other country IMHO. In particular, the dishes where yoghurt forms a delectable sauce either with other ingredients, or on its own.
This Parsi dish is amazing. When I first had it, at the home of a Parsi family, the whole room ceased speaking. The sign of an amazing dish when all conversation stops. Cooked with love.
If you are cooking lentils, don't throw the lentil water away - use it to make rasam.
Or Osaman, the Gujarati version of rasam.
Some Empathy, Compassion and Understanding Would Really Be Nice, I Could Really Truly Use Some HELP and SUPPORT Right NOW!
I am a #disabled man living in #poverty, my #disability is 60% physical and 40% mental, and as I get older, both of those are increasingly hard to deal with, each day I try to do what I can where I live, as part of my rent is to help out when and as I can, but that is getting harder and harder to do, I am spent, between losing what little strength and physical ability I have left and not getting decent sleep nor having a decent diet, things just keep getting harder, and that causes my #anxiety to get worse which causes my #bipolar to cycle, which causes more lack of sleep, and I am in constant pain, and on and on it goes, at 47 years old I sure wish people could see the value in helping me #fundraise $5million dollars so that I can buy my own property and build my forever home, and have everything I need to never have to worry again, and to alleviate the stress of my day to day situation, and so I can really just age at a pace that wont effect anyone or anything, because in my own home, if I cant or dont feel like it I dont have to do anything for days, weeks, or months at a time and no one can get mad at me. People seem to forget that I am disabled and they dont realize I am getting older, nor do they comprehend that I simply cant afford #food to eat 3 meals a day, often not even one meal a day, that I have no #healthcare, people in general expect me to just keep going like the energizer bunny, when the reality is I am an old broke down ford truck, that on occasion I can get fired up and get a few things done, but more often than not, I really dont have the gas to even stand up, being #disabled and living in #poverty Fucking Sucks! you cant afford to eat when your hungry, you cant afford to take care of your health, you cant afford anything a person needs in life, Poverty Fucking Sucks, but when Your Disabled, it Fucking Blows, and every little thing is compounded a 1000 times and no one really cares to help you. I have so many unseen issues, most don’t realize the true difficulty I endure each day, first I don’t sleep well, for many reasons, from a brain that is constantly in overdrive, to relentless nightmares, to being in constant pain, to not having a decent supportive bed to sleep on, so my days start of painful, tired and overwhelmed before I even get going, Often I go hungry because living in #poverty I simply can not afford #food to eat, I typically only get around 600-800 calories a day when a man my size and age should be getting around 3000 calories a day, as a result despite my appearance I suffer from malnutrition, I have a great deal of difficulty cleaning my tiny cave, from not being able to afford the basics to have cleaning supplies to being physically limited in my ability to do so, I cant hardly bend over, nor can I very easily get up and down off the floor, taking a shower can simply become a serious challenge, and often leaves my exhausted not to mention I cant often afford the basics for personal hygiene, simply washing a dish or standing at the stove at times can be brutal on my back, then there are chores I need to tend to as part of my rent, and those absolutely can be a painful and exhaustive event for me, and those around often don’t even realize and expect more as a result, and if I say I have had enough today, I am questioned, because they assume I did what I did with ease, but they have no idea of the pain and struggle I had to endure to deal with to accomplish the tasks at hand, reading has become trouble some, as world become very blurry and melt together, writing is becoming increasingly difficult, as finding the words is getting harder and harder, being creative used to help but I have been in so much pain, and under so much stress that I often cant even muster up the energy to attempt to be creative, not to mention my camera is failing, my laptop is struggling, and again no money to obtain what I actually need, I have no #healthcare because the laws people pass have really messed that up, and after years fighting to get it resolved I have given up, so I fight through each day to just to suffer the next, I reach out constantly for financial support yet receive nearly nothing compared to what I actually need, this #disable man exists in #poverty, constant pain and my #anxiety exacerbates my #ptsd, my #bipolar cycles, and several other issues, my blood pressure has been all over the place and frankly in a rather obscenely high range for to long, my core body temp has been far lower than the average, while I often feel as though I am on fire, things get darker with my sight each day, and yet to bright, I hear and see so much that is not actually there, so very much wrong and no support nor help to be found, it would really truly help if people could and would help me #fundriase the money I need each day to live, and the money I need to set up a life where I can take care of myself and lessen the effects of poverty and disability on an aging body and mind.

Smitten kitchen spinach & cheese stata. Listen to the lovely blubber noise it makes while it cools right out of the oven

Combining it a "roter Elbling" from the Mosel vacation two years ago...
A major difference in the Chinese diaspora:
People with HK / Toishan / Guangdong roots: this food from source land is really good and authentic, I like it
People from SE Asia with Cantonese or Chiu Chow roots: this food from source land needs a lot more spices and chillies
Sunday cook and prep. Black pepper and sansho tuna tataki with sushi (vinegared) rice made first thing this morning; spicy mayo tuna, and some onigiri stuffed with it. Packed up for delivery to Kid1 to help her through her next week in college.
Hong Kong Chinese breakfast places are very nice and familiar places for me. Usually they have good breakfast sets, in flavors and configurations I like (omelette with soy sauce + soft bread + noodles + tea = $10 or something ridiculous)
In SF I like VIP and G & Y. In LA county I like JJ Cafe.
The food, tea, soft and warm breads, and overall experience of being surrounded by old Chinese people in the diaspora is what gives me joy.
My spoken Cantonese is not great (I understand better than I speak, and I speak chiu chow) but I’ve learned if I make the right sounds and just say yes to every good thing, I win anyway. I don’t need to say the right things, I just keep getting great food
Die Blüten von Tulpenmagnolien sind übrigens essbar. Kann man wohl sauer einlegen oder frisch zu einem Salat geben.
Ich habe es leider nich nicht selber probiert.
So ein Bäumchen will leider saure Erde oder zumindest nicht ganz so alkahlische, wie ich sie hier habe.
Und wo der Gedanke gerade herkommt weiß ich jetzt auch nicht.
Working thru the freezer in anticipation of filling it up again shortly.
And look! Frozen cherries from last year!
Thank god, we got our #BigGreenEgg long before that #Trump moron started his freakin' tax disaster. #Yesterday, we did our version of canton #Obwalden's traditional Ofetori. But we left out the bacon and replaced it with mushrooms because we don't like bacon too much.

i'm usually disappointed by camping food and camping cookware, but here's a bamboo steamer for steaming food during camping i can get behind
i will be fine if i never eat a single marsh mallow again in my life
Popped open a jar of last summer's plum jam. I used citrus pectin and it made the texture funny. Kinda like quince paste. Still tastes good though. #food #preserving #jam

Wer nach etwas Besonderem für Ostern sucht: Wie wäre es mit wundervollem No-Knead-Kulitsch mit ukrainischen Wurzeln? Versüßt euch den Osterbrunch doch mit Orangenaroma, herber Schokolade, Mandeln und getränkten Cranberrys und Aprikosen in flaumig-warmem Hefeteig!
Der Teig für dieses reichhaltige Osterbrot wird am Vorabend angerührt, geht über Nacht und wird dann erst gebacken - so wird der Hefeteig ganz besonders! Das Rezept habe ich inzwischen mehrfach gebacken, das Osterbrot lässt sich auch gut in Scheiben/Segmenten einfrieren, so dass es nicht nur das Osterfrühstück versüßen kann.

I am increasingly surrounded by vegan people and considering a change in my diet. Years ago I tried a low carb vegan diet because that’s what my doctor follows (he is also diabetic) I found it unsatisfying 
and spiked my blood sugar levels 
…. But I reckon I could be vegetarian - any long term diabetic vegan or vegetarian people here? Thoughts?#diet #food #diabetes #vegan #Vegetarian
