  • I enjoy an over hard egg sometimes. I don’t like gooey eggs, especially when the whites are still raw.

    But a liquid yolk doesn’t necessarily mean raw. Cooked yolk should be thicker and has a great egg flavor. Hard yolks begin to taste bitter from the sulfur dissolving out. I recently learned I had been sleeping on soft boiled eggs.

    The key is that yolks and whites cook at different temperatures. That’s why if you want perfect hard boiled eggs, you need to put them into boiling water (or sous vide if you’re bougie, which if you’re able to afford eggs…) for 8-10 minutes. That’s all it should take. Drop them into an ice bath and then enjoy.









  • You also don’t know what you’re getting from Amazon. A lot of vendors will ship you new old stock from the back of some forgotten warehouse, or found in the corner of an auctioned shipping container that’s been to Indonesia and back a few times. That’s fine for a pair of pliers, but that bag of a flavor of M&Ms they discontinued in the 90s that you can only find on Amazon? Roll a D20 and add constitution.


  • I mean, yeah. This is an important part of the German language. They create composite words to describe a thing, and learning to break it down into its constituents is a fundamental part of reading German.
