'Get It Done'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Or, as Rick Bayless said about truffles, "They don't make things better, they just make them more expensive."
And truffle oil doesn't make things taste like truffles. It makes them taste like truffle oil.
My favorite restaurant in NYC serves a truffled egg toast (made with truffle oil) that is TO DIE FOR, but it's an exception rather than the rule.
Truffle oil in salad dressing? EW EW EW. GET IT OFF.
he saw his therapist on Tues. We see the psychiatrist today, probably more prescriptions. and we see the therapist on Friday again.
I can't manage getting him anywhere for more than that.
I have really only managed one call to an advocasy group. Hopefully they will call me back today.
Well he refused to go with grandad and uncle and so is pouting in a cube at my work (against company policy) and now we leave in 2 min for my appt with his therapist. good times.
Wishing you all the best, msbelle.
I'm sure the doctor and/or the pharmacist probably mentioned it, but remember that any meds might take a while to start working if they need to reach a certain level.
Hang in there, msbelle.
I had some truffle fries in Seattle that were pretty good.
It's one of the better uses. Similarly, I've had amazing truffled tater tots. No. Really.
I also like it used sparingly in things like mac 'n' cheese, and certain types of tomato sauce. But it gets overused, both in amount and the number of things it's in.
I've never had truffles or truffle oil. Does it taste like good mushrooms?
Truffle oil + Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese + French fries = OM NOM NOM GET IN MY FACE.
Truffle oil + Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese + French fries = OM NOM NOM GET IN MY FACE.
That's what I'm talkin' about!
Truffle oil is a modern culinary ingredient added to foods, which is intended to impart the flavor and aroma of truffles to a dish. Most truffle oils are not, in fact, made from actual truffles, but are instead a synthetic product that combines a thioether (2,4-dithiapentane), one of numerous organic aromatics odorants found in real truffles, with an olive oil base. A few more expensive oils are alleged to be made from truffles or the by-products of truffle harvesting and production, though the flavor of truffles is difficult to capture in an oil.
"Their one-dimensional flavor is also changing common understanding of how a truffle should taste," Daniel Patterson complained in a New York Times article.
And it's irritating the because people assume that the outrageous price is due to the use of expensive truffles, but it's all chemical.
