I'm not a great fan of asparagus but this dish sure fits my pistol.
I'm kinda neutral on the taste of asparagus, it's the sulphurous fumes it imparts to liquid bodily waste afterwards that make me avoid it.
Artichokes are just not worth the trouble to prepare and eat. And so little edible on each one. 40% yield on a properly prepared artichoke with all possible edible flesh stripped from it. If you want just the hearts, one site said that it takes 6 large (14-16 oz.) artichokes to yield 8 oz. of hearts.
Even baby artichokes, which have a higher percentage of edible material (~70%) are a pain to prep:
- "Fill a large bowl with cold water and squeeze half the lemon into it. Cut off the rough spiky tops of the artichokes and peel away leaves until the pale green leaves are exposed. With a paring knife, cut off very bottom of stem and peel dark green layer off sides of stem. Repeat with each one, dropping each cleaned artichoke into the prepared acidulated water."

Shawarma, aka döner. No receipts, just what you can discern from the videos. Posted more for technique rather than ingredients.

What's the difference between tocino and bacon? I see it comes in both flavors. I looked up tocino and according to the all-knowing Internet it's just the Spanish word for bacon.
Tocino is usually somewhat sweet and/or savory and not smoked. It also is much fattier than bacon, more akin to salo (see Viands and Victuals) than American bacon.

Even then we would be quite happy to sit and think about nothing.
Unfortunately for us the women don't like us to do that.- 3

It is always tickled me how garbage food - trash that was fed to either the lower classes or to animals - has now become expensive and "oh boy we really want that".
Other examples are "baby back ribs," which used to be trim that butchers almost couldn't give away. Salt pork, used to be dirt cheap because it was made from trim and used for the cheapest of military rations or for seasoning. Bacon was just a small step up from that. I looked at some salt pork in the "managers special" section and it was marked down to $6.49/#. Pork picnic shoulder I ove $4.50/# around here.

Does that mean that Macadamia trees can kill you like everything else in Australia ?
Yes, but slowly. Every 100 ounce single serving of those highly addictive nuggets is known to contain 200 ounces of fat.
That said, Spam Flavored Macadamia Nuts sounds pretty good.

It's what friends do. And you can tell they're guys, quite happy to sit in quite company, likely thinking about nothing at all, just basking in companionship.

So.....a thread about scams with a link that shows the usual "Urgent!" buzz word that's almost the hallmark of scammers?
Does just clicking on this thread expose all our information to scammers?

This recipe appears to be double the one in the link and does not say 12 large eggs.
Yeah, some strangeness going on. There were several other sites that had a half gallon each of heavy cream and whole milk, but all other quantities the same.
