Just lay leaves on top and keep it submerged. I set the cover on loosley. Grandpa just put a towel over it. I let it go only 2 or 3 weeks then jar it and keep it in the fridge. If your a nervous nilly. You can can it but that kills the probiotics

Made fried rice independently from my stir fry and did a better job of managing both.

I made some pretty killer pickles last year from pickling cukes in our garden. I added 1 reaper pepper to each jar and I must say they are incredible with just the right amount of heat. On the last jar of them now

Not me cooking…
Appointment up North today… Got there early… said to wife “lets try Burger Kings impossible burger”… Only drive thru mind you… I asked for two 1/4 pound Impossible burger, no pickles on one… “what do you think we are, McDonalds?”!! was the reply… 
So they only put that in a whopper, I was told… “OK, skip all the trimmings and we’ll have two”… It was very quiet for a minute… another attendant then started talking…
We ended up getting just one whopper… scooped the trimmings off… Weren’t they the ones that said “have it your way” a while back? I just wanted to try that plant based stuff… curious…
Wife read about it on the way home… All you are skipping is the cholesterol… I will not be trading in my beef any time soon…
That was like 2-3rd time we’ve tried dine out in the past year… Perhaps might be a long time before we dine out again…

I recently bought a flat bottom one for the ceramic top electric stove. Works great.
Impossible burger is my favorite of the plant based burgers. You just have to dress them up a bit IMHO. You’re also skipping a lot of the fat, the slaughter of a poor stupid cow and the environmental damage from cow farts and corporate farming. Honestly, I’m with ya though…none of the plant based burgers can rival a good fresh sirloin or prime burger.

We eat a fair amount of Beyond Burger here mostly in a frequently served Goulash. I prefer it to beef in the goulash as it has a crispier fry that I think compliments the otherwise stew like ingredient. I saw an Instagram meme that cracked me up the other day. “100 companies are responsible for 71% of the planet’s pollution and they are telling me I’m supposed to eat insects to save the planet?” Speaking of invertebrates, we’ve been eating a lot of precooked but flash frozen shrimp these days. It’s a really nice treat and prices aren’t that bad.

Spot on!
We only buy flash frozen shrimp anymore. It’s way better than the oft times mushy “fresh” shrimp in our local stores.
I made instapot chicken pho today. Recipe i found on the interwebs. Turned out pretty good. I’ll change it up a little next time though. Chicken needed more salt before cooking and needed to be sauted a bit I think to give it a more roast chicken flavor. The radishes and shallot were quick pickled with a technique I mentioned above somewhere, rice wine vinegar, salt, sugar, 1 min in microwave then let it marinate until ready to eat.
