My vote too.

If you expand the format to rice + dried bean/legume/grain (e.g. lentils, quinoa), you can really expand your possibilities without breaking the bank.

I'm super eager for others to respond to some initial posts I've kicked on @webnovels. Come on by! 👋

I have success going the route of adding spaghetti directly from the pan with the bacon (or guanciale if I happen to have it) right into a bowl with the egg/cheese instead of egg/cheese into the pan. Residual heat does a good job of getting egg to a creamy texture.

Coffee and fruit juice. ☕🥭

It's a common add-in with some Tiki drinks with juices including pineapple, orange, passion fruit, and lime. When my SO makes something, he'll commonly toss the excess volumes into a glass sans alcohol for me to enjoy.

Every morning, we rotate between a Bialetti moka pot + an Espro P3 french press for coffee depending on what level of expression/mouthfeel we're craving out of our beans that day.

For cooking uses, my most used gadgets are:

• a Ninja digital air fryer to toast/crisp things on the fly.
• a Instant Pot to pressure cook beans or meat when meal prepping.
• a Zojirushi for plain or zhushed up rices for meal prep also.
• a FoodSaver sealer is also used on the reg every time we restock on meat in the freezer or need to store leftovers.

Orange slices and salt. 🧂🍊

I've not followed his poolish recipe yet. Thanks for posting yours for inspiration!
