Grandpa's kitchen + my 2 cents

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH-j8QNCjMg He really feeds his children well. See how to cook clean and well with the barest of facilities, but good water and supplies. Plastic spoons should be provided. I cook Hyderabadi biryani, but process is a bit different. Doesn't matter. Like me he foregoes saffron, the most expensive spice in the world, maybe now $5 for 5 small stamens of saffron crocus. He stints on nothing else. I like the way he does not talk much, sits and waits for it to cook, and tastes everything first, then shares widely. Do the same, kmk 6-17-2018

Much to read from the Atlantic--incld--Friday Night Massacre.
