 If you want to learn to cook, start with a sandwich. Then spaghetti sauce from
 a jar. Then sautee some vegetables and throw them on top of rice. Then go to
 the store, read the back of a tasty-looking package, and make the recipe it
 suggests.
 
 Then you know how to cook. Don't bother with online recipes.
 
 Also, more butter, more salt.

 if you're cooking, and you want a specific ingredient to have a stronger
 flavor, use more of it.

 don't know how to make decent rice and beans?
 
 get the heartiest vegetable soup you can find from the store and cook some
 jasmine rice and lentils in a pot. You should be able to do both in the same
 pot. cook them like noodles by boiling some water and adding the rice and
 beans. add some salt to the water. make it salty like the sea.
 
 then drain the rice and beans once you taste test them to be done. be patient.
 add the hearty, savory soup to the mix alongside a big hunk of butter.
 
 boom, protein, calories, nutrients. all in one meal. the more vegetables in
 the soup, the better, and if you're feeling fancy you can sautee some of your
 own instead of soup by dicing them into inch large chunks and throwing them in
 a pan on medium heat with some butter and whatever seasonings you want for a
 while, stirring only when they start to stick. Just enough to brown them, not
 burn them.
 
 butter and salt and garlic and boullion are your friends. don't do too much,
 if you notice them a lot then it's too much.

 does anyone know of a recipe that uses only flour, butter, yeast, eggs, and
 salt? It doesn't need to use every ingredient, but those are easy to acquire.
 
 ideally with the ability to include nuts or dried fruit or something else
 nutritious.
 
 the requirements include the ability to cook it using only a rice-cooker (or
 crock pot, or other kind of slow-cooking ceramic dish which heats from all
 directions at once)
 
 in addition, it must NOT need kneading. It must be able to be cooked passively
 without attention. The fewer steps, the better.

 when you run out of an ingredient you use often (like butter, seasoning, or
 flour) put the container by your shoes.
 
 then, when you go to the store, look through all the empty containers and make
 a mental list.
 
 when you get home and are putting things away, if you forgot something just
 leave the old container by the door. everything else can be recycled / trashed.

 a good spoonfull of better than boullion italian
 
 a medium amount of large colby-jack cheese cubes (about one for every other
 bite)
 
 boil with just enough water for the noodles to start sticking to the pan once
 entirely cooked and add cheese, butter, and top with generous dashes of smoked
 paprika and lime juice.
 
 don't strain the noodles. have just enough water left to have a thin sauce.
 
 if vegetables are desired, firm carrots and peas (read: frozen or fresh, not
 canned) or diced/shredded onions.

 did you know that you can steam eggs instead of hard boiling them? it's much
 easier, and the eggs are easier to peel as well.
 
 you need one of those strainers that fits inside a pot. or you could probably
 jury rig something with a plate and a cup, but make sure they're heat
 resistant.
 
 boil some water, put the eggs in the strainer for 11 minutes with a lid on,
 and then cover them in cold water for a bit. boom easy peasy.

 I love cooking. My favorite food is "melange" also called "gruel" by the less
 culinary people in my life. It consists primarily of a rice or noodle base,
 plus a bunch of other ingredients (usually sauteed) that are quite nutritious.
 Then, you season in a way such that it tastes delicious and savory and BOOM
 you have the perfect food.
 
 Well, not as good as steamed eggs, but still pretty good.

 rice in the rice maker with butter, worcestersire sauce (not too much!) and
 salt
 
 when it's done, flake hard boiled eggs (2 eggs per cup of rice) on top and
 douse with a small-mediumish amount of soyaki
 
 could do well with either a packet of dehydrated vegetables or perhaps some
 diced carrots or green onions. Honestly carrots go well in most things.

 if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
 than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and
 then work on seasoning them.
 
 Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
 flakes for spice.
 
 level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
 herbs.
 
 be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily
 do too much. better to salt to taste.
 
 also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium

 when eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, always make sure the jelly
 side is facing you before biting.
 
 that way, you have sweet jelly on your tongue before the sticky peanut butter
 overrides your tastebuds

 lentils are easier to cook than beans and are nutritionally very similar.
 Heck, I just throw them in with the rice in the rice-cooker and it works out
 great.

 When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that
 you can see before going to the store.
 
 When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a
 sweatshirt or jacket that you wear when doing errands. Maybe even just on the
 ledge next to your shoes. Something that reminds you to get this particular
 seasoning, and no others. It's easy to get others...

 If you want to clean your room, try pushing everything loose into a pile in
 the center. Then, sit down next to it and sort things into piles.
 
 "here's a pen pile, here's a paper pile, here's a rubber band pile, here's a
 trash pile" etc etc. Then, when you can't reach anything more or the piles are
 too large, find a spot for them in the bookcase or drawer or wherever.
 
 If you can't, then reorganize. If you still can't, then pick things to get rid
 of.

 Highly recommend "Better than Boullion" - if your recipe involves boiling
 water, unless it's tea there's a good chance that some broth-in-a-jar could
 make it taste better.
 
 Did you know you can boil oats like noodles? Yeah that's... that's basically
 how you make oatmeal. Use less water than with noodles, though.
 
 EDIT: Also, add some bits of nutrition like dried fruit, nuts that have been
 soaking in clean water overnight, nutritional yeast, dehydrated soup mix
 (delicious), or frozen vegetables.

 Go until you're tired, then go a bit more. Then, stop for a bite to eat.
 
 Then, go until you're tired, then go a bit more. Then, stop for a beer or
 maybe some coffee or tea.
 
 Then, go until you're tired, then go a bit more. Then, stop under a tree and
 read for a bit.
 
 Then, go until you're tired, then go a bit more. Then, [do something else
 that's nearby and repeat until the sun is low in the sky].

 If you're packing for a long car ride, it's a good idea to put the things
 you'll need first near the top of the bag, and the things you'll need at your
 destination at the bottom.
 
 if you don't know where you're going, well then just try and pack more of the
 essentials.
 
 for example sandwiches go at the top, because you're going to be eating them
 en route.
 
 however clean underwear should probably be near the bottom.

 the broth they sell at the store is way too thin. boullion is much better
 because it's so concentrated. think of it as "essence of X" when you have
 "broth of vegetables" or "broth of carrots and onions" or whatever... can help
 make it easier to cook something decent by using general flavors

 heat makes things squishy. it works from the outside in, and the longer you      │
 cook it (meaning, the lower the temperature) the more the heat can spread        │
 through - meaning if you want an even consistency, do lower heat for longer      │
 periods. if you want a different texture on the outside compared to the          │
 inside, do higher temperatures over less time. just make sure you devote extra   │
 attention to stirring to make sure you don't burn it.                            │
 seasoning is sorta like a coating / dusting that you can apply to food. the      │
 longer it rests on the food (and the more the food is porous / cooked) the       │
 more the seasoning can penetrate into it - meaning if you want the flavor of     │
 the seasoning to be distinct from the flavor of the food item, then add the      │
 seasoning toward the end. if you want them to combine into one combo-flavor,     │
 then add the seasoning early.                                                    │
 some seasonings degrade with heat though, especially herbs. so add them toward   │

 people.

 make more money" "I should put out traps for the rabid wolverines so they
 don't start hanging out in my underwear" "I should pick up detergent at the
 grocery store"
 
 Should is useless. Do; or do not. There is no should.

 "Fighting back" doesn't necessarily mean standing on a street corner with a
 rifle.
 
 Begin to orient your life around guns. How can you support the people who
 wield them? We all need food, shelter, kindness, and inspiration.
 
 Your fears and your worries shall bother you no longer, for your life as
 you've led it so far has been the life of capital. It's okay to miss what
 you've lost, but remember who took it from you and enrage. Then, engage.
 
 Nothing starts today. It has started quite a while ago, and it's only now
 beginning to flicker and spark. It burned low for all this time, and it will
 burn low again. But it's the dry season, so prepare for wildfires.

 honestly, how much is "YouTube" retaining? I don't care if it's educational,
 sometimes kids just need to be free. Free from obligations yes, but free from
 the emotions that drive them - the ability to make their own choice. As a
 child, you don't know how to understand your emotions, but growing up you
 learn and you do. It's part of being mature - the idea that you can handle
 what's presented to you.

 in the past, people could eat canned food not necessarily because of the way
 that it was canned, but simply the fact that it was sealed and comprised of a
 liquid form that was inhospitable to bacterial life. Like vinegar with
 pickles! But only for the things that were meant to last for a while - if it
 was just for next month, then you don't need BPA liners or microplastic
 dissolvers or any of that junk. Just a fully recyclable can that vacuum seals
 itself shut using the power of machinery and heat.

 @user-5 It's still best to make vegan food without substitutes. They're tasty
 and delicious, (which is new), but they're not that great for you and kind of
 expensive. If your normal diet is mostly fresh fruits and vegetables with some
 lentils and grains, you're on the right track imho. But still they can be fun
 sometimes, and the melted vegan cheese enables nachos and mac&cheese so...
 worth it

 special someone - but the time is "loose" you can do with it what you will.
