They contain 1 ingredient, soybeans. I imagine they are made into a paste, extruded, and dried.

- Comment on What to do with a surplus of fresh veggies? 3 weeks ago:
I love when I get a lot of onions and peppers. I grill them up then make a wrap with them, usually the grilled veggies, cheese, cyclospora free lettuce, and ranch dressing.
I have also done the veggies on a sub roll with cheese and soy curls for a cheese “steak”.
Same with the veggies, soy curls, in a tortilla for a fajita.
Carrots make a good carrot salad, raisins, and a mayo like sauce, I think it might actually be Cole slaw sauce.
My go to way to cook carrots is in a pan with a little veggie bouillon, some honey, maybe a dash of cayenne. Cook covered until almost fork tender, uncover cook and them until the bouillon is mostly gone and thickened, add a little butter to further thicken the liquid.
They can also be boiled/steamed and mashed with potatoes, or other root veggies. Diced browned onions added to mashed potatoes add a great depth of flavor too.
Depending how small the baby potatoes are, I cook mine in a pressure cooker with copious amounts of salt (only use potatoes with the peel fully intact or they absorb too much salt), they come out really tender, and are great served with some butter.
Most if not all of this can be frozen once cooked.
As for the cucumbers, there was a dude on TikTok that had some viral videos of some great cucumber salads. I think his name was Logan or something. The videos were so popular a lot of places were experiencing cucumber shortages.
I have recipes for most of suggestion’s and Will gladly share if anything interests you.
- Comment on Do you toss food once the date on the label has passed? Experts say that's often a waste 4 weeks ago:
In more progressive regions, food past the date is given to charity, who then know more about the meanings of the dates and the safety tolerances.
I volunteer at a food bank, and I can tell you
food past the date is given to charityis correct. Howeverwho then know more about the meanings of the dates and the safety tolerances.is wholly incorrect at our food bank. As long as there is no visible mold it is given out. If there is no way to inspect it, it is given out. - Comment on Do you toss food once the date on the label has passed?

Only on milk.
Milk is usually good for at least a week after the sell by date.

- Comment on Sun protective clothing 2 months ago:
The material is so thin, i am unsure that my caliper would even register a thickness. I did finally order one in black, because we’ll, i am one of those people that only wears black until something darker comes along, but when I am working in the sun, or hiking with the dogs i do wear these in the light colors… But I really want a black one to wear when I am out and about.

- Comment on Sun protective clothing 2 months ago:
I am not a fan of the water repellent nature of them. But other than that they are the best sun shirts I have found otherwise.
- Comment on Sun protective clothing 2 months ago:
this is the brand i get here in the states. I am in New Mexico, we get our fair share of sun and heat. These shirts are thin, and relatively cool. They are upf 50 i believe.
- Comment on Sun protective clothing 2 months ago:
Just wear something made of synthetic fiber and/or with a dense weave, colored a dark color
Why dark colors? All of my sun clothes are as light of a color as I can possibly find stop they reflect the sun instead of absorbing it.
- Comment on How does one get started and quickly learn to be a hacker? Explain please like I am a 10 year old because he is. More inside 2 months ago:
is illegal just to be a hacker for good
No it is not.
A white hat (or a white-hat hacker, a whitehat) is an ethical security hacker.[1][2] Under the owner’s consent, white-hat hackers deliberately hack software or system with the aim of identifying any vulnerabilities or security issues it has, helping to reinforce it from black hat hackers. [3]

as a casual dabbler, I just use whatever is easily available
Same, which is why I switched to dumbbells. Before that I had a press made of plywood, hours of it sitting in the whey was causing some funk. I even tried wrapping it in plastic first, while that helped it also created unnecessary waste. The dumbbells we already had, so it was no additional cost.
In the beginning I used to use the pot with the whey still in it. Now I would worry the cats (one specifically) would knock it over.

U.S. Gallon
- Comment on DIY Cheese Making (Paneer) 2 months ago:
have wondered about cost efficiency of it because of how little you get from so much milk.
When I am able to get paneer it is between $9.98 and $13.99 a pound. Milk is $3.99 a gallon currently.
- Comment on DIY Cheese Making (Paneer) 2 months ago:
Do you ever salt it, or is that just not common with paneer?
I do not, I have no idea if it common or not. But all of the recipes I have tried do not add any salt.
- Comment on DIY Cheese Making (Paneer) 2 months ago:
If you have ever bought paneer, you will find this is about half the price, and twice as good! I made this while I was cooking dinner.
