I love Jan. He mostly just hangs around and listens to what others are saying, chiming in every now and then. But then when he's in the spot light once in a blue moon you'll be thinking about wtf he just did and said for the next two months.
okay time to admit i don't think the food looked bad AND all things considered it was probably tasty (maybe a bit too salty for me considering the amount of salt jan added buuuuuuut 💀)
Following and confirming all the stereotypes about my country, everytime Joker Out cook something vaguely Italian I get shivers and I'd arrest all of them.
thanks for the tag @damiannasworld , @lipsmackingxyoldun , @paperphilia ! I thought it'd be funny to make a Kä/JO version (this is very dumb 😂) , if whoever wants to try again 😆

Am I the asshole for "gatekeeping Risotto" while I am not Italian ?🍚🇮🇹
Silly AITA. I (27F) am 100% sure I am not the asshole but my bf(26M) is 100% sure I am. One of us must be…
This morning, my bf told me he was making risotto for diner. Great, I love risotto. However what he cooked for diner that night was not what I would call risotto.
Uncooked onions are difficult on my stomach. My bf didn't want to worry about undercooking it so he kindly made an onion-less risotto.
He dislikes the taste of alcoho in food so he didn't use any wine for cooking the rice.
He didn't have stock so he used plain salted water.
He dislikes cheese so he didn't use parmesan.
He doesn't like the texture of overcooked vegetable so he cooked and put them on a separate plate.
He DID use carnaroli rice (rice usually used for risotto) but cooked it in a rice cooker.
At the end of the night, I expressed to my bf that while I was really grateful that he spent time cooking a meal for us and I really liked said meal, but …The dish he cooked was not what I expected when he said we will have risotto. In fact I wouldn't cal it a risotto at all but more plainly : rice with side of vegetable.
He said as long as you use the "risotto rice" you ARE making risotto and he must know because he IS of Italian ascendance (no one in his family has ever been to Italy or connected in any significant way to Italian culture).
I said I disagree because if I say I am making Mac&Cheese, I can't put bolognese sauce on pasta and call it a day.
He called me an asshole for gatekeeping his culture from him. I think he can cook his cultural dishes however he want, but after a certain point of change he can't expect for people to recognize the original recipe. Words (and recipes !) have a meaning .
Help us with this disagreement tumblr, who is the risotto asshole ?
so far we got jenga, vacuuming at 11pm, writing 72 songs, cooking bolognese risotto... what's next? bojan ironing clothes? grocery shopping? movie night????
