since i just had gophers 2 weeks ago, i put in 2 gopher hawks and no nibbles, but i also installed 10 sonic things as well, and so far, no new tunnels.

Lately I've been doing the smoke bomb things. Gopher gasser. Its helping. But those little fuckers, its like I'm living Caddyshack sometimes. They actually picked up one of the smoke bomb things, it looks like an M80, and carried it out of their hole and dropped it like 3 feet from the hole.
Still nothing as satisfying as shooting them, but who has the time.

Looking up the pictures removed any doubt I had about whether he was joking or not but at that point I asked myself why let 30 seconds of work go to waste?

For shame, a real cook ought to know what fennel looks like...
I say that though because it's actually a wonderful ingredient. I find I'm using a hell of a lot more even for things that aren't porchetta related.

Kind of the same flavor. I use star anise in different things. My wife and I both really like that flavor and it lends itself well to certain dishes. When I do duck I typically use it in the poaching liquid if you want to call it that. The hot bath that you give it to tighten the skin up before you dry it, along with cinnamon and ginger and other aromatics.
Doesn't Chinese five-spice have it? Or am I thinking of a different seasoning blend. We use five spice all the time. That's such a unique blend. When I did kafta the last time we did Mediterranean, I cheated amused five-spice to get that flavor profile that those uncased sausages are supposed to have, and just added some coriander.

while 5spice ingredients vary, star anise is always a staple and clove?

I’ve had it in soondae guk where it was pretty solid. Quick search isn’t bringing up a recipe for soondae gum that includes the tripe though.
