Can you keep the stock that long? Hehe

ApostrophePong @apostrophepong.bsky.social · 3d

You sound mastering it.

I made my homemade stock: coriander roots, peppercorns, garlic, and shiitake mushrooms as the base. Meat and veggies are your choice.

I find that glass noodles and fungus are to dilute the minced pork. I was gonna make it with pork ribs this week but got chicken breast and choy sum instead.

My fascination is the backlash from the local and expat communities. Remember UK’s ad of a tech giant that was eventually taken off because of the reputational damages to the brand? I’m interested to see any responses from this UK public broadcaster this time.

I think he’s aware of what he’s signed up for. I’m not looking forward to a snap election though.
