    Fresh Dill anyone

    I am not in BA so I'll check in the market and some of the "finer" verdulerias in town again and see if they can get some in a future shipment, or I will get it next time I am in BA. I have never fermented pickles before but that is the plan. I want to try and make something like Strubs Sour...

    Fresh Dill anyone

    Curious about the pickles, are they more normal size pickles or just the long cucumbers? do you cut them down? I'm struggling to find 4-5" cucumbers.

    Fresh Dill anyone

    I want to try and make some pickles but I can't find fresh Dill here. Just dried dill seed. I was wondering if anyone has seen any in the country. If so, could you please give me a general idea. Thanks!

    Argentina’s textile sector reels as import surge hits job

    This assumes both jeans are equal. In reality they are not of equal quality or price. So if one can buy $10(15,000 pesos) jeans from China, instead of $100 (150,000 pesos) jeans from Argentina, the buyer, La Chiqui, now has the remaining $90 ($140,000 pesos) of disposable income that can now be...

    How did you rent before getting a DNI?

    At a Tuesday meetup, this website was mentioned. I think it typically allows rentals up to 3 months, but you might be able to talk to the landlord for longer lease. https://www.4rentargentina.com

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    10) In all fairness, it looks like since in H1-2022 it ranged from 3 to 7.5% monthly. So from mid 2020 the curve indicates a trend up. Did the government do anything to alter course or not? I understand this is also during the pandemic but from my understanding he didn't do a great job handling...

    1) This administration is not doing those things. They are meeting foreign debt obligations, they are running a fiscal surplus, they have removed some capital and FX controls and have relaxed a band system which has been supported by the IMF and US. The currency has and is mainly been trading...

    Shortened your quote due to character limits. 1) How is it a drop in the bucket and stop gap? Construction phase of projects are typically when you have highest direct and indirect employment. Once in operations numbers tend to decrease. 2) Why does it matter when first production occurs...

    In Argentina, locals are taking loans to buy food

    You have completely ignored my previous post. You are attributing feelings to which I have clearly stated are not my own or others in the previous posts. You are not providing any opposing points to debate fact. You are just attacking the person instead of ideas. I can spend time to respond to...

    In Argentina, locals are taking loans to buy food

    And around the world? Is it really shocking that inflation hits people without physical/hard assets hardest? What food prices are soaring? Beef prices increased because of increased export.

    In Argentina, locals are taking loans to buy food

    I'm not sure what you are referring to. I don't think anyone here is happy with the unfortunate situation going on for people. But do you think 80+ years of governments borrowing and either defaulting or printing can be reversed without some tough times? It is notable that in the article it is...

    Chorizo opinions

    1) I didn't say that soy protein isolates are dairy, I said they are serving the purpose that milk powder is used for which is to act as a binder in sausages contributing to the texture you may be more familiar with from the US or other places. 2) Nitrite is a chemical compound. It doesn't...

    Do the same thing and expect different results is the definition of insanity. They don't appear to be doing the same thing now though. Again, you might believe what you hear in the news or social media about protests, but the fact is those are minorities of the population, hence the electoral...

    You have thus far just stated opinions. The market and facts of what is taking place counters again opinions you are raising.

    Chorizo opinions

    I'm not sure how much space you have, but a Kamado or an Ugly Drum Smoker or Weber Kettle/Smokey Mountain style can fit and work well on a balcony. In terms of casings I can get 38/40 locally from a shop that sells them buy the ring or so. Otherwise, there is a place I can order 34/36...
