This little cutie, has just been diagnosed with PRA (Progressive Retinal Atrophie) and has become completely blind. I'm looking for people who have some experience with blind dogs and can give me some advice.

Thank you for boosting

@Charlie I'm really saddened to hear that! :( Sending warm thoughts to the two of you!

You might've heard this concern about veganism: "I couldn't live without cheese!" ๐Ÿง€

And indeed, the vegan cheese that's available in supermarkets is oftenโ€ฆ not great so far.

So I wanted to show you how to make a simple, quick & cheap cheese from cashews! It's tangy, savory, and has lots of protein!

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

This is what we'll need:

  • 300 g roasted, salted cashews
  • 1.5 tbsp lemon or lime juice
  • 1 tbsp vinegar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp mustard
  • black pepper

This time, I used distilled vinegar concentrate, with you need to dilute 1:4 with water to get to an acid content of 5%.

But I've also used rice vinegar in the past. Any other vinegar should work, as well.

Put all ingredients (except the pepper) in a blender.

You could also use an immersion blender, maybe you'd need to stir it up a couple of times with a spoon.

@deBaer Haha, really? Curious to see the result! :D

Blend until you get a consistency like crumbly ice cream with chunks! :D

The trick here is not to blend too much, or let it get too hot โ€“ otherwise, the result will be more like a cream cheese.

So put the blender on a rather slow speed, take breaks, or stir it in between.

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

Almost done! Shape it into a wheel, and try not to snack to much, because it's already so delicious at this stage!

Finally, I like to roll the cheese in roughly-ground black pepper, which adds an extra kick to it!

If you'd like a less intense version, you can use other herbs or spices โ€“ I've once used dill, and that was very tasty! Oregano could also be nice.

Put the cheese in plastic wrap, and chill it in the fridge for a few hours โ€“ it will firm up quite a bit.

Done! :) If you try it, let me know how you like it, and send pictures!

This is a style of cheese alternative that I first found in Spain. It doesn't try to imitate cheese made from animal milk, and instead does its own (delicious) thing.

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

@lritter It doesn't fit that definition, but it's delicious, you can put it on bread, or crumble over pasta! :)

I think there are recipes that involve fermentation, or even mold cultures โ€“ but I haven't tried that, and I wanted to share a simple recipe that just takes a couple of minutes, instead of weeks.

@blinry@chaos.social avatar

@OliverUv Hehe, yeah, longest I've stored it is for a week or so, I think!

@fiee I haven't tried with raw cashews โ€“ for me, roasting makes the taste more interesting in general. But I guess you could roast the big bag yourself in the oven!

I made this a long time ago and never really shared it, it was the first/only piece of digital art I've ever made. It's a rendition of "my world under covid", my little office space in my apartment in Philly

Wie kombiniert sich eigentlich Aussagenlogik und Beleidigung nach dem StGB?
Kann ich straffrei "Herr Mรผller ist ein Arschloch oder gelb ist meine Lieblingsfarbe" sagen? Wird es dann strafbar, wenn ich spรคter "Ich hasse gelb" sage?

Our roof garden is shaping up nicely! :)

Among other things, we planted spinach, kohlrabi, peas, and radishes this year, and it's fun to see them getting bigger! ๐ŸŒฑ

I want to try the "make 50 of something" technique again!

So this week, I'll try to find 50 things to do with a Software Defined Radio! ๐Ÿ“ป

I'll use this simple USB dongle, which you can get for around $30.

My current monthly challenge is to eat at a 1000 kcal deficit for 30 days! :breadnommed: Posting about my challenges here has been really motivating in the past, so I'll do it again!

I started on Tuesday (Day 1), where I consumed the amount of energy required to charge my smartphone battery 92 times!

@sn0opy Jep, calculated the burned calories using Cronometer and added them :) My running days were the best days, because I could eat more!
