  3. What are you Smoothifying Now

    in Food and Drink

    Posted · Edited by deepak

    Cool, I love that stuff but find it too salty as well.  Must try. 

     

    I assume you took the seeds out of the jalapeno first? 

    I keep them in for the heat. My juice machine obliterates them so I don't have seeds in the juice. If you're using a blender, maybe straining should remove them while maybe allowing some of the heat from the seeds to remain in the juice? I am not sure.

     

    I am not too sure how V8 Spicy Hot gets its heat, I could not find anything in the ingredients list. Jalapenos are the closest I have found taste wise (I tried chilli powder, green and red chillis and small amounts of habenero).

     

    I should have added the beet is the most sensitive of all ingredients, it can dominate the flavor if you use too much. A spicy beet drink is no good :laugh:

    I have been trying to replicate spicy hot V8. Which is delicious but has nearly 700 mg of sodium in 8 oz :eek: (and a bunch of other crap)

     

    This will make roughly 8 oz after another straining

     

    2-3 tomato

    2 large sticks celery

    0.5 large beat

    plenty of spinach

    plenty of parsley

    1.5 large carrots

    1.5-2 jalapenos (do to taste, sometimes I get decently hot ones, sometimes they are completely mild)

     

    another strain with strainer and add pinch of salt and black pepper. More juice consistency than smoothy. Chill, significantly better very cold than at room temp. The color is off being a much darker blood orange, but the taste is quite close.

    Use Picasa? Import to Folder by Date Taken (YYYY-MM-DD) , then no problem unless you take more than 10,000 photo's in a day :)

    Then there is some logical segmentation to the physical pool(s) of photo's

     

    You don't keep all you audio files in one folder do you? :)

    I was viewing the files directly off the camera via USB. I have an organization system once I copy them over. I am lazy and generally don't delete files off the camera until it tells me the memory card is getting full, if I was deleting stuff as I copied them to my computer I wouldn't have encountered this. It's really a moot issue, I just shared my story since I thought it was sort of funny because like rtn I would not have been happy about these pics not "being there". Also I can't remember the last time I did the view all files trick (maybe Windows 2000 days?) which was also :) moment.

    I think windows is the problem there doc. These things don't happen on a Mac. :)

    Whatever OS I would run I'd have folders set to organize by file name, I think I would go mad with anything else. It's the camera itself that looped over and started with the new numbering of file names.

     

    rtn I appreciate the advice, I'll look into it. This was an old Sony P&S, oof marone a 1D... I can't spend that kinda money on anything other than audio gear :)

    Didn't know where to post this... so might as well do it here. My digital camera threw me for a loop today. It has passed 10000 photos taken and reset the naming from DSC09999 back to DSC00001. So the pictures I took at last nights party were no where to be seen since Windows organizes pictures by file name. So they were somewhere in the middle instead of at the end. Around 10 minutes later of trying old tricks like view hidden files, etc and I realized what had happened. I think it is time to retire this old war bird :laugh:

    It's the classic troll.  I think it's the same guy, either Billy or Aaron or someone I don't know.

    Beeely knew how to troll. I sort of miss him. Where else can I find lol, jagbag, and Ray Samuel (and other incoherent rambling) in the same post.

    Sometimes, when I start a song when I'm wearing my HD-800, I am startled, because I think I've left my speaker system on, because the soundstage is often well away from my head.  Damn these sound good.

    this is a nice effect, 'specially on some live music. IIRC you are anti-Miles, but you should listen to some of the Plugged Nickel concert on the 800z, I finally got this guy on the vinyl box. Almost sounds like my ESL63s in the dark
