There's two kinds of coriander. Might want to check what he means being suspiciously canadian. I'm guessing seeds but who knows.

If he didn't mean seeds he'd say cilantro.

I've been confused before. Also who the hell thought to call it an aubergine

Pretty sure there's only one 'ground coriander'.

I made your rub over the weekend and used it on some chicken. Good stuff! Thanks for sharing!

Actually you can buy it dried preground but.

AFAIK coriander is always the seed of the plant referred to as cilantro

Same here, but in England, Jamie Oliver calls cilantro “coriander”

Lots of recipes call for "fresh coriander" or "coriander stem" or whatever. Thai and Vietnamese recipes pretty much always call it coriander, and call the seed "coriander seed".

Usually it's pretty fucking obvious in the recipe what they're calling for, though. So if you end up making guacamole with avocados, lime juice and coriander powder then that's your own damn fault.

I made a key lime cheesecake for Mother’s Day, it was pretty awesome.

While not as pretty, ATK has a super fucking easy cheesecake that is DELICIIOUS. They call it La Viña–Style Cheesecake.

Mrs. Chikken bought me a wok for my birthday so I can stop ruining her pans.

I make a lot of improper fried rice with leftover meats.

No vegetables because they’re nasty.

Add cup of pre-cooked rice to avocado oil, then meat, some sweet chili sauce.

Drop a couple of eggs in the wok, whisk in place, dump a ton of cayenne powder in.

Add garlic paste and ginger paste, stir maniacally.

Let fry a couple minutes then sprinkle with soy sauce.

Wait until the soy sauce finishes boiling off, then serve.

We have an All-Clad wok, which is the worst, as it weighs like 10 fucking pounds.

@APRIL and I went to an all you can eat brunch at 1pm yesterday. That was my only meal since then and I'll still not very hungry. I think I ate a bit too much.

I'm getting a carbon steel wok directly from China. One of the vendors I buy equipment from sends me a gift with every order. This time we're all getting awesome woks and toolkits. I'll post pics in like 6 weeks once it's here

 

[Syrup Beaver]

Ooooo.

Can’t wait to see it.

I bet it comes wrapped in 4 miles of tape.

This crusader helmet I got was, perfect protection.

That is like... I guess it's fried rice... in the sense that it's rice... and fried.

Grats on the wok though.
