How cool is this?!
The Voith-Schneider Propeller is a vertical-axis marine drive whose spinning blades change pitch continuously, letting a ship generate instant thrust in any direction, like a helicopter rotor underwater. Super-maneuverable, perfect for tugs and ferries.

Hey, friends who cook:
Does anyone have a trusted recipe and some tips for mujaddara?
I’ve made it a few times, but it’s completely different from what I’ve had at restaurants. We have two vegan guests coming for Christmas dinner, and I’d like to make it for them without it being soupy.
