  • If the pan is hot enough and little enough wine is used, all the alcohol will quickly evaporate out. It actually tastes bad when that doesn’t happen; you’re supposed to let it stir around until that bit has boiled off.

    That being said, the deglaze is there to get the fats and other caramelized components unstuck from the metal and reincorporate them into the meal. Any highly acidic liquid ought to do although it’ll change the flavor profile quite a bit depending on what you use. To be safe and stick to the spirit of what the recipe is trying to get you to do, you can use apple cider vinegar. But you’ll need a base to offset the acidity if you put in too much.





  • If someone is so socially inept and surrounded by equally socially inept people who don’t call out this behavior, then it’s possible they don’t have anyone who is part of society at large that would inform them of how their actions will be perceived by most members of the public.

    I’m not commenting because it hurts me in any way. I’m commenting because this person is going to have a relatively difficult life socially if they continue with the behavior they currently exhibit.








    • What happens to the ball?

    It slowly rolled toward the edge but stopped before falling to the ground. The path was somewhat eccentric because of the texture of the ball.

    • What color was the ball?

    Yellow

    • What gender was the person that pushed the ball?

    Male

    • What did they look like?

    Green and white track suit (why? IDK), mid 60’s Italian, chubby

    • What size is the ball? Like a marble, or a baseball, or a basketball, or something else?

    It was one of those foam Nerf bullets, so about the size of a shooter marble

    • What about the table, what shape was it? What is it made of?

    It was that black IKEA table where the four metal legs screw into the corners. About 6ft by 3ft.

    • And now the important question: Did you already know, or did you have to choose a color/gender/size, etc. after being asked these questions?

    The entire scene sprung into my head at once after reading that someone interacted with the ball
