Eggs are a good candidate for nonstick pans as are pancakes/crepes. Cheese things work well here too- one of my favorites is to crust a slab of halloumi cheese with za’atar spice and fry it with roasted veggies and couscous. Such a feat would be disastrous in a regular stainless pan.

Things not to stick in a nonstick include anything acidic (tomatoes or citrus), anything that needs charred or seared, and pan sauces (usually rely on browned bits left behind for flavor)

AttackBunny, in Anthony Bourdain died 5 years ago. Here's 5 ways he helped reshape the food industry.

It's kind of hard to watch Parts Unknow, or No Reservations, at least for me, now that I have the benefit of hindsight. He was a deeply unhappy person, and you can frequently see it in his face/body language in the in between moments. Still amazing shows, and an amazing personality.

I absolutely love them. 🤤

morganth, in What is a Momo? A dumpling delicacy from Nepal

A Nepalese restaurant moved into a former Indian restaurant’s space in my neighborhood just last year, and I got to try a momo for the first time. It’s delicious. Anyone who has the opportunity, go and try them.

You won't believe #4! More clickbait trash, yay.

bayaz, in what’s up with the users posting Amazon links?

From the kbinMeta thread: this is a known issue with the kbin codebase. Moderation does not always federate correctly. Unfortunately, it appears there is likely nothing I can do about it until that issue is resolved. Sorry!

Thanks for checking on it!

bayaz, in what’s up with the users posting Amazon links?

FYI -- I've started a thread about this on kbinMeta. We'll see whether they can help us out.

bayaz, in what’s up with the users posting Amazon links?

As far as I know, I'm the only mod at the moment. I think the kbin admin would be the only person you could go to if I'm not doing my job, but hopefully that won't be necessary, because I'm trying to continue deleting the spam.

Current situation:

I check at least once a day (and usually more often) for spam, and I permaban the accounts and delete the posts. But, the spammers are just creating new accounts, so there are always posts that are up for a bit before I remove them

Possible technical issues:

  1. You should not see any of the spam posts at the moment. From what I'm seeing, I've deleted them all. Maybe this is an issue with federation. How many spam links are you currently seeing?
  2. I have not seen any reports from any users so far. Again, perhaps a federation thing.

Future:

I'm happy to add another mod if someone wants to do it. Removing the posts every day is tedious. If someone knows a sensible way of automating the process so the posts are removed faster, all the better.

If there are spam issues for users from other instances but not for kbin users, I can try posting on another meta-type magazine/community for advice. I don't know enough to fix an issue like that at the moment.

Cris_Color,

From lemm.ee there appear to be a number of spam posts still visible, though the authors show as having been banned. I would assume its likely the same for lemmy broadly

bayaz,

Thanks for the info. I won't be able to look into this further tonight, but I'll ask tomorrow about how to make the deletions propagate.

Or, if anyone reading this already knows, then I'm all ears.

Cris_Color,

Glad I could help, even if I don’t have a solution. If you need someone on lemmy to check if they’re still visible feel free to reply to me again or message me on matrix and I’ll take a look

Good luck, wish I knew how to fix the problem

And the ones I reported before were not removed. Who do I contact if mods aren’t active?

choafa,

Why not

hsinner, in Looking for non-stick skillet tips and tricks

Great for eggs and omelettes, just don't use metal utensils on them. Also great for sticky things like grilled cheese. Definitely don't put that in the dish washer even if it says dish washer safe.

I'm not a huge fan of ceramic coated pans as they can have issues over time with hairline cracks that cause things to stick. My preference is anodized aluminum (the dark grey colored pans).

r4venw,
@r4venw@kbin.social avatar

What causes those hairline cracks? Just regular usage?

hsinner,

Sorry, never saw your reply. Yeah just regular usage and fluctuations in the temp when you're heating it up and it cooling down. They take a while to form, and the more careful you are with it, the longer it'll take for them to form and have an impact to the performance. For example if you cook an omelette and immediately put water in there to clean it after, they're more likely to form.

Looks like that was a tasty and healthy meal :) What had you added to the rice? Bell pepper?

CharlesReed,
@CharlesReed@kbin.social avatar

Diced tomatoes, and a tiny bit of green chilies and lime juice, just enough add a little kick!

zugzwang_03,
@zugzwang_03@kbin.social avatar

Sounds tasty! I never thought to add chilis into the rice itself, I might have to steal that idea for meal preps when I don't want to use chili slices as a garnish/topping.

xicorea, in Looking for non-stick skillet tips and tricks

@darknyght00 gave some good tips on non-stick. But I believe you'll need another, more heavy duty skillet for burgers and meats. I use cast iron for that.

@FrostTom@kbin.social avatar

I have heard to use milk or cream instead of water but I’ve never tried this myself.

I just make normal cakes though usually. Also explore chocolate peanut butter ganache. I’ve always wanted to do a two layer cake with that in between the layers.

@OurTragicUniverse@kbin.social avatar

Adding a can of full sugar soda works too. I've tried cherry vanilla coke in chocolate cake and ginger cake and both were delicious.

I think zero soda works too, I've seen in on diet forums but never tried it.

Also ganache is super easy- heat cream (vegan stuff works too!) till it's steaming hot and add chopped chocolate and stir. To boost the flavour, add a pinch of salt and a sprinkle of instant coffee in with the chocolate.
