YSK - for all the things that can make your life easier!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.

All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.



Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:

**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- The majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Unless included in our Whitelist for Bots, your bot will not be allowed to participate in this community. To have your bot whitelisted, please contact the moderators for a short review.



Rule 11- Posts must actually be true: Disiniformation, trolling, and being misleading will not be tolerated. Repeated or egregious attempts will earn you a ban. This also applies to filing reports: If you continually file false reports YOU WILL BE BANNED! We can see who reports what, and shenanigans will not be tolerated. We are not here to ban people who said something you don't like.

If you file a report, include what specific rule is being violated and how.

Pickled radish is delectable, amazing on salads and sandwiches.

[–] Statfish@lemmy.world 1 points 11 hours ago

I love freshly made, quick pickled radishes, but I feel like they get a weird odor if kept. Am I doing something wrong? Making them using hot vinegar & salt mixture, let sit for 10min or so, then eat.

I like radishes raw but pickled sounds really good. I'll have to try making some.

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

I don't like raw radishes, but I will devour pickled ones.

[–] khannie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't think I've ever seen those in the shops. Do you pickle your own?

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I do, brew wine out of maple syrup I make and apple cider I press, buckets get infected and become vinegar, mother of vinegar eats alcohol below 5 pc concentration.

I throw cut up veggies in there, peppercorns and spices, lots of spicy peppers as I am a fiend. Radishes take longer to soak through than zuchinis and cabbages and the like but go great with them.

Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom.

Separate question.... How's the maple syrup wine? I used to home brew but haven't had the time in a while.

And how are the hangovers from it? It sounds delicious tbh but I can already hear my brain screaming.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago

It is good, but not like you might imagine, there are a wide range of flavours that can result from it. I haven't noticed any hangovers outside of the turbo yeast but that's not made for wine, but I've used it when in a hurry, that is like the 48 hour stuff. That produces off target substances that cause hangovers more.

But it's good, very interesting complex tastes result from it. The colonists traditionally used their off tasting syrup for it, the french made mapleesqueue or something like that, a maple liqueur, where they added syrup to the finished product to back sweeten.
