I can't believe how good the bread from this vending machine was. I almost got the set with eggs but we already had some.

@FlockOfCats @imabuddha There's a lot of French bakeries but they're more boulange / patissier style (I have no idea how to spell French words). The funny thing is that with the government rice flour initiative, it's easier to lean into the more hardy breads imo.

@imabuddha It was fluffy but not mushy.
Do you mean like the hard European style breads?

I made a new TikTok account, and the stuff the algorithm is showing me is trash

  1. no, a famichiki on an egg salad sando is not a food hack
  2. i watched the video of Sandy in Japan doing a racism. That doesn’t mean I want more Sandy in Japan videos
  3. I don’t need Japan Tips™️ from influencers who are in Tokyo for 2 weeks (I know Donki sells random shit and you can do <random task> at the combini)
  4. Seriously, I can only handle so many “<name> in Japan” videos. Stop. Please.

Machine learning is prime for a "what people think I do" vs. "what I actually do" meme, where the public discourse about it is that it's some kind of AI revolution that will change the nature of work, and what it actually does is provide better modeling for predicting public transit ridership.

@Alon it def has great use cases for this kind of modelling but the unimportant ones take up too much space and resources. (A familiar story.)

Made a belated birthday cake for Ms. FoC.

Turned out perfect….under the whipped cream there was a dark brown, almost black crust and a soft, gooey, medium rare interior!

@FlockOfCats it's the thought that counts... did you do this in the not a Le Crusset? hehe

@soycamo@famichiki.jp avatar

@FlockOfCats I haven't made a cake in mine yet (I have one too) but 230° might be too hot... that seems more like a roasting temperature. You can try putting it in the middle if it has a rack but you'll have to put some aluminum foil on the top. Wondering if I should consult Cooking with Dog since they made cakes in a similar oven

i'm sofa king™ sick of eating the same hospital food over and over and over again, but i'm also glad that they've made me yōshoku ＊alllmost＊ every day, so i'm not going to complain (too much 😅)

Japanese hospital food of the "western vegetarian" variety, which involves a soup with potatoes, beans, and onions every day; some form of salad or vegetable, often with a mayonnaise packet as accompaniment; two bread rolls and a packet of jam or honey; plain Japanese tea; and a few bites of fruit if I'm very very lucky.

@kawasemi @mangotable @scoutie I full on agree about ketchup inferiority. The Kagome packs are okay in a pinch and you don't have to measure anything.
For bona fide tomato paste, I'm keeping an eye out and will report back.
(I don't use tomato paste too often except Spanish rice, and I always burn it 😅)

Another thing I miss about America: good Vietnamese or Thai food

@rdviii @FlockOfCats that's what I thought too! Sadly they're not within walking distance in my neighborhood. (In the US, all of this was in my neighborhood. The Italian neighborhood became the Mexican & Vietnamese neighborhood. I was very spoiled.)

TIL that turnips are the same species as bok choy and napa cabbage 🥬 🤯

“Brassica rapa is a plant species growing in various widely cultivated forms including the turnip (a root vegetable); Komatsuna, napa cabbage, bomdong, bok choy, and rapini.”

Thanks @wikipedia :gosh:
