  1. Why Pasta Water Is the Unsung Hero of Cheap Cooking

    Countless TikTok videos focus on cheap recipes, but a lot of them don’t take into account ingredients that the creator sees as a staple, like seasoning. TikTok creator Chef Moe, on the other hand, has a series of $5 dinner…

  4. My fave #BigTree yesterday, was this large #HorseChestnut #tree on a side road beside Wark Street Commons Community Park in #VictoriaBC in #QuadraVillage.

    In Britain & Ireland, their seeds are used for the popular children's game conkers. During WWI there was a campaign asking everyone to collect the seeds & donate to the government. The #conkers were used as a source of #starch for #fermentation using the Clostridium acetobutylicum method devised by Chaim Weizmann to produce #acetone for use as a solvent for the production of #cordite, which was then used in #MilitaryArmaments. Weizmann's process could use any source of starch, but the government chose to ask for conkers to avoid causing starvation by depleting food sources. But conkers were found to be a poor source & the factory only produced acetone for 3 months; however, they were collected again in WWII for the same reason.

  17. November 23, 1862
    Alexander Pierce Anderson, an American #Botanist, is born.

    His work at the #NewYork #BotanicalGarden (#NYBG) led to a fantastic discovery.
    Alex suspected that microscopic amounts of water existed inside the #Nucleus of #Starch crystals in #Rice. Once he found a way to extract the #Water, he created #PuffedRice... and #Breakfast #Cereal was changed #Forever

    Alexander sold over 20,000 lbs of puffed rice at the 1904 #St.Louis #WorldFair.

    Why do we love carbs? The origins predate agriculture and maybe even our split from #Neanderthals
    Study from The University of Buffalo and The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine finds the gene for #starch-digesting saliva may have first duplicated more than 800,000 years ago, seeding the genetic variation that shapes our modern diet
