Now that my dad is home and I get to take a day off just to recover my energy while we still need to handle his catheter draining due to his p3nis UTI has not been fully cleared, I have been doing a lot of house work at home, including some cookign and clean up.
Previously I purposefully bought this roaming mandolin so that dad could help mom shred ingredients before cooking, to enable him to feel a little more useful at home; but since he is constantly knocked out from antibiotics, plus the inconveniences hanging his UTI trace catheter bag around which is not hygiene, I gave mom a break and just do some simple cooking
This rotating mandolin is seriously not bad. Even frozen hotdogs it can shred to smaller chunks pretty fast.
I shredded and soaked the potatoes earlier, drained and pat dry them before airfry them a short while to get it half cooked so that I can use it as a "hash brown"-ish protein "patty" for the bread for easy chewing since both my parents have lost quite a bit of their teeth.
Frying the hotdogs a bit before mixing together with the half cooked shredded potatoes
Use scrambled eggs (with some seasoning) as the "batter"
When all mixed together and just scoop them back on the frying pan (like the first photo) to create this patty that is great as a sandwich
Well, my parents had the bread, I just went for the patty.
(Been having too much carbs of late haha)
And with the water pollution issue still yet to be resolved, I have to keep changing the filters so that my parents have less skin irritation from all this mud and rust 😑😖
the additional filter inside
I actually had some clay and stone filters inside to try to "soften" the water further and that does help with the filtration, but it has to be washed off in order for reuse until the stains can't get off anymore
One of the methods I tried was pouring these washed gravels into the ultrasonic jewelry cleaner, and with hot water and run it for 10 minutes, it does managed to get some dirt out because the water became slightly muddy / mirky.
I would just take that as "effective back wash" , then I will dry them aside before reusing them for the next newly changed filters.
(I have another set to rotate it)
how about you?
Do you usually back wash your "internal filters"?
Or maybe the place you stay doesn't have this issue, especially Europe that taps on the water system from the alps?
(Boy I missed those super clear tap water encounters)
There are more "washings" to come, but will just leave it here for now.
Until Then
Stay healthy, stay curious and learn new things, and stay happy!
