In which I discuss the properties of several salts - and provide a recipe for delicious caramels (which you can dip in chocolate & pretend are Fantales).
@CharleneTegliaThis is a good time to buy all the T Kingfisher books you do not already have. (Insurance just means you don't have the FULL cost, not that the copays are affordable) #SFF #Bookstodon https://twitter.com/UrsulaV/status/1669789721776513024

“So…uh…the biopsy news wasn’t great. The big painful lump is malignant. I go in next week to meet with the surgeon and we find out stuff like “what stage” and “lumpectomy vs mastectomy” and stuff. It’s weird, but as much as I was panicked, I don’t think I really expected it.”

It's Friday, it's a gorgeous day here in the valley, and the jasmine has started blooming. Think I'll knock off early and sit on the balcony with some ridiculously cold white wine and a good book.
To remove some of the bitterness from kale:
- rip the leaves off the main stem
- cut up the leaves
- roll over them with a rolling pin, or crush with clean hands
- rinse
The brutal treatment creates isothiocyanates some of which are removed through washing. It also breaks down some of the tough fibres - leaving you with milder tasting tender kale.
