1·9 days agoThey are, yes, but they’re special. I think most other agua frescas are mostly different fruits blended with water and sugar, but these two are special enough to stand apart from the rest

2·9 days agoI agree! Horchata is my absolute favourite from Mexico, I make it pretty often. Agua fresca is also versatile and balanced

3·9 days ago¡Gracias! Me gusta más lo dulce que lo agrio, entonces para mi, no me gustaria sin azúcar 😅 He probado tejuino y algo similar, pero no me gustan las bebidas muy agrios o salados

1·9 days agoYeah, I reduced both sugar and hibiscus for next time, effectively increasing the water content

2·9 days agoThe hibiscus gives it a sour taste. With the amount of sugar I used, it turned out about as sweet as sour, but very intense in total

2·11 days agoThat sounds like a good combination! I’ll add the onion gravy, so it gets more varied flavour

2·12 days agoAh, you’re right. I was unsure if there were different names, but now I know: I used elbow macaroni instead of normal macaroni/maccheroni

3·12 days agoLike, when the majority of the taste is salt and umami, and there are few spices or “risky” flavours. Tasting safe is being inoffensive and accessible, but less exciting

2·1 month agoIs the egg thing a hard rule? This is fettuccine from a local supermarket, but it doesn’t contain eggs. Might they have the name wrong?

3·1 month agoNo, don’t worry, I did not interpret you as critical. I just wanted to explain the mix of languages
Sounds like linguine is the best substitution then. I feel like the slight flatness improves the consistency, and makes it grab more sauce
It’s good that it looks ok on screen reader! I’ve made sure to have enough contrast all the way, with at least 7 in contrast ratio wherever possible. That way it should be readable even if the reader has cataracts, or the device is used in an environment with bright light
Responsive layout has also been a focus from the start. People usually follow recipes on their phone, so it’s important that it works well in any form factor. I have a friend with a tiny phone, so if something isn’t responsive enough, I usually hear it from him
A tip: If you press the amount shapes, you can see the amount in other units (volume if it’s shown as weight, vice versa, and weight if unitless like the lemon in the photo). I’m not sure how to make that functionality obvious, but it’s there
A ton of improvements are planned, I just need to prioritize, haha

8·1 month agoWell, if you go to the about page, you can see how the name was chosen. The domain was then chosen to have a shorter URL. I first write recipes in norwegian, and then translate to english and spanish. I switched to linguini/fettucchini because it’s so much better than spaghetti
Thanks, is there anything you would change about the site, or that is missing? Except photos, that’s coming

Ah, I didn’t notice! I’ll correct it
