Yes, I suppose so. Not fully as planned. I went without buns, because for the life of me, I couldn't find anything with which to form buns. And... time was ticking away. So, just two quarter pound burgers (before frying), two slices of cheese (real, cheddar), some very finely sliced onion and tomato, mayo (I just made, it is actually rather solid, right off, just added a little less oil than recommended... who knew!), and some of my homemade mustard. Nice, very nice.
This time I added onion and garlic powder. I could have done fresh, but... I was out of time after looking for the cutters/forms for the buns. So, dried had to do. Salted to taste, with a touch of white pepper to hide in with it, two eggs, a little less than two cups of oil, and three tablespoons of kefir. Teaspoons, actually? No, definitely tablespoons. I got the measuring spoon out, I remember. And, yes, it tastes... like storebought, only... so much better. Oh, and two or three tablespoons of fresh squeezed lemon. Amen.
The mustard is really good. I did a medium heat, with it. That is chosen by the temperature of the water. I went with room temp. I can't remember if hot or cold water makes the mustard hotter or more mellow. But, this is good. Plane to me, but I... wanted to make sure. Plane, but wonderful. Half of it was ground to powder, half of the seeds were just barely cracked. Like the old time stoneground mustard, but without the sugar and shit they now add. Oh, I should add some of that to the mayo. I... did add it to the burger. Vera noice.
Another meal, later? Maybe, though very well maybe not. It was up to 74, or very nearly, when I was coming in. I closed up shop, hoping it stays a bit cooler in here. But there are limits. It is partly cloudy out there, which helps. But that sun, this time of year and on, becomes a sun-of-a-gun. Clouds can help, but just a bit. Even when they are really thick, there are simple limits.
I did call my mother. She must have been talking to someone else? She turned it off almost immediately. I checked blood sugar just before eating. I had eaten the half of a lemon left over from squeezing into the mayo. I wonder if that did it, but it was up to 214. I'll finish coffee, and then my vinegar tonic. Set the timer and check it in an hour, and then two hours. Hmm, if I have something this evening, it will be another kefir.
Well... good. After I rest up from eating, I'll check on the laundry and start in on the dishes. Hmm, actually I'll set the dryer to a twenty minute finish run. Probably did that last night, but maybe not. Better to be a bit dry than a bit damp. Anything else? I... don't know. I may set up the other keto flour, so I don't have to juggle next time. These flours can make mug bread too. I'll see which works the best plain, with cheese in there... and possibly spices, and in the microwave and in the oven. It won't be science. I won't do a hundred runs, or a dozen. I'll do one run each, score, and let go. If something is close, and in a different recipe, I may run several tests. No more. No need. Engineering, not often useless science.
But, first, to finish my meal, then vinegar, then relax a bit.
