Beans Are a Vegetable: an Overanalysis ( lemmy.ca )

“Of course beans count as a vegetable!” I said to my wife. We have this house rule that it’s okay to eat mac and cheese for dinner so long as you add a vegetable.

Does Anyone Have a TIFU Moment When Cooking?

Fermented jalapenos with herbs

This year I have lots of jalapenos. Now I want to experiment a little bit. I want to make a hot green sauce with different herbs. A list of herbs I want to use: basil, salad burnet, parsley, cress, chives, borage, sorrel, chervil. Any ideas how to do this?
