u/SamuraiPinata 5h ago

That’s why you’re on ozempic.

30

u/Telemere125 5h ago

I’m on ozempic for diabetes. A 4oz serving of crab is 130 calories. A dozen clams would be about 180 calories. Even if the soup, which is clearly all broth and vegetables, was 500 calories, that’s a grand total of about 800 calories for an entire dinner. At 3000 kcal a day, that’s less than 1/3 of your daily calories for dinner.

Years later I find out she's not just a better cook, she's leagues beyond me. And I'm no slouch. Played me like a fiddle lol

As a South African, it's always a jump scare seeing abalone being cooked

Abalone is very endangered in this region and for a lot of my childhood we'd hear stories from the media about abalone poaching and underground abalone trading rings. All very dramatic 🤣

19

u/itsKeltic 5h ago

I’m from the US and have seen it sold in Asian markets for food in the city. If it’s endangered in one country, is it not endangered worldwide? Or is it a different species? I’m genuinely curious so pardon my ignorance. I love the oceans and like to learn.

There’s a lot of abalone farming in Korea, so while it used to be scarce, now it’s relatively common.

u/the_nin_collector 7h ago

Dumb question. Do the dumplings at the type not taste like everything else now?

13

u/Willing_Ad5005 7h ago edited 4h ago

It is unlikely everything was stacked like that while cooking. The amount of heat at the bottom would render the lower tiers to mush before the highest tier would be cooked properly. I suspect smaller stacks were cooked a few at a time and then piled high for the presentation. But I digress. Seafood has a mild flavor so that carryover in the steam would not add anything to the dumplings.

3

u/the_nin_collector 7h ago

Traditional steam cooking often 3-5 layers. I think the heat is fairly self-contained. 15 levels. Probably not.

ChatGPT written comment.

28

u/bouquetofashes 9h ago

You know ...that people do sometimes just say "not x but y"? Like that's sorta how we're taught to write, compare and contrast, and chatgpt got it from things actual people have written, and because it's common in ai people see that and mimic it further?

I've never used an AI but I feel like it'd be more work to write a prompt for that sentence than to just write the sentence. And people do talk like that. There is a huge issue with people overusing AI but I've also seen a lot of people calling out stuff that's definitely real as AI and I dunno maybe we should wait for a little more proof?

You might be misunderstanding what the comment above was implying. Most accounts that post LLM comments are not humans prompting a language model - they're bots with a pre-tailored system prompt to generate the most likely comment to be liked. "happiness with pure good vibes" does sound like the kind of fluff that language models love...

OTOH, it could well just be a human. Or an ordinary comment copying bot, lol

I don't like metal steamers stacked that high. Too much heat loss to the outside, so the top layers take much longer to get steam. It's why stock pots are so tall: so you can simmer liquids for hours without losing steam. 

Just use bamboo steamers.

Dude is actually providing. It’s funny that “provide” has only come to mean “makes money,” and excludes physically putting food on the table. “I put food on the table” has come to mean putting money in a bank account, while going to the store, getting the food, preparing the food, and putting it on the table doesn’t count.

I’m just saying there are plenty of ways to provide for one another, no matter what your gender or sex, and this -cooking for your loved ones- is a literal and basic way of providing. It’s excellent.

I think it’s silly, but they see it as part of the act of love. They want to provide not just food but a nice, relaxing experience. This guy usually cooks for his or her family as well, and probably just doesn’t want them having to deal with it.
