I say etch that bad boy. Such a nice pattern, the contrast of an etch would pull out even more of the subtle details/lines.

These exist, but I've never spotted them in the wild. Mammal on the left.

If you get a can of Campbell's condensed cream of anything soup and follow that recipe and don't like it, then you need to re-wire your comfort food receptors. But if you're following those recipes on a weekly basis, then you better be drinking water by the gallon jug to make up for it.

Probably a store/distributor/service brand. The OEM makers would leave their brands off and knives would be house-branded. You see this with Russell, Dexter, and even some of the Sabatiers sold in the US (where there's only a a "France" and then an NYC department store name.) Bigger knife...

@refcast That's a really clever method! It has the benefit of keeping the texture the same since it's wood too. Wish I knew this trick years ago.

@HSC /// Knives should be on.the radar--very nice petties

Don't forget to tape the whole blade (don't ask me how I know). I use a piece of 2x4 abot 2 feet long and a 32oz hammer. Sometimes you have to hit harder than you think is necessary. Keep in mind, all you really have to do is break the bond--and so just move the handle a mm or two. Then you...

Seriosuly though:

Same here. I think just a little extra height (40mm not 35mm) is helpful, but too much (45+mm) gets into baby-gyuto territory. Also, just that little bit of height difference at 40mm can be helpful with a pinch grip. Every now and then with short petties, the blade corner will nip my finger...

Not just popular in the west either, https://www.vice.com/en/article/3d9p5y/how-indomie-became-insanely-popular-in-nigeria

Jongga is another Korean brand. Jongga Kimchi ramen is good--and comes with a pouch of actual kimchi. Use all the kimchi, half the flavor powder, add sesame oil and Worcestershire. Good stuff. There's all types of good instant ramen available these days.

Box joint bolster? In wood, that's a box joint (aka a finger joint). Looks beautiful whatever the name is :)

...and insurance. Seriously.

Well, since it's the unpopular opinion thread: Roads are for cars.

Things that go with eggs: --Coffee. Potatoes. Toast. Things that don't go with eggs: --a half-pour of champagne-adjacent industrial sparkling wine cut with fruit --a breakfast negroni spritzer or whatever carbonated hipster abomination tries to bring 'mixology' to the morning Things that...

I’d say give a strip a try, especially since you’ve found a place that’s local and top quality. I find strip has a little more of that nice iron-y taste, while ribeye has a little more of that fat-driven umami unctuousness. Very different all around so it’d be fun to do a little comparison--buy...

White handled swingaway, a cast iron pan, and two Revere Ware saucepans--all crammed into an orange crate with dish towels. Isn't this what everyone got/took for their first apartment? If you're lucky enough to find a NOS old one in a hardware store, see what else they have. Those old...

Sure. If anything, the flavor might intensify/darken a bit overnight. One technique I really like for mushrooms comes from Coleman Andrews book on Catalan cooking. Saute quickly on high heat just to lightly brown, then lower heat and salt (the temp change plus the salt pulls the liquid out)...
