DailyDirt: Homemade Meals And Ingredients
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
Everyone likes a good home-cooked meal. And making everything "from scratch" seems to be a popular thing to do, especially if you have entirely too much free time. If you're up to the challenge, here are just a few pointers to recipes that you might want to try someday.- Making a small batch of your own artisanal High-Fructose Corn Syrup is possible with a DIY kit that includes glucose isomerase and everything you'll need to produce HFCS in your home kitchen. That lab-produced enzyme prevents this product from being labelled "organic" -- but rest assured that the result will contain a carbon-based food. [url]
- Homemade Soylent is a DIY liquid diet, made from blending up a bunch of powdered nutrients. It doesn't taste so great, and you'll probably miss chewing and the texture of regular foods... but liquid diets are at the very least a time-saver since it doesn't require cooking (or that pesky chewing).

- Gourmet marshmallows can be handmade with a wide array of flavors like lemon coconut, chai and cherry chocolate chip. Making your own marshmallows isn't rocket surgery, but the tricky part is making them shelf-stable.... [url]
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team

How Jello is made.
- Get all those bones from cows and chip them.
- put it in a container and add sulfuric acid to dissolve the minerals and some other stuff and dry the collagen, to know when it is good push down a rod if it gets to the bottom all hard material is gone and it is ready for the next step.
- Turn down the acidity by throwing some lime in it and
