土耳其炖韭葱(Zeytinyağlı Pırasa)

用一般的锅就可.只要一开始小火炖就不会焦.

  • 韭葱保留葱白,刮去外皮,只留芯子,视频中约7根韭葱
  • 斜切韭葱段,浸入盐水(两勺盐)去苦味,15-30分钟都可以
  • 3根胡萝卜斜切片,韭葱冲洗干净
  • 加1.5杯橄榄油(多点无妨),放入胡萝卜和韭葱小火加盖炖5-10分钟(出汁且沸腾)
  • 少量米洗净(米太多吸水, 菜就可能干掉了),洒在蔬菜表面,加入1.5杯水(水太少也可能底部菜会焦掉),一勺盐一勺糖加水拌匀加入,一个柠檬榨汁加入.
  • 15分钟小火加盖至饭熟,关火冷却30分钟或更长时间.最后撒入mixed herb.

Use Emacs to read English classic books efficiently

Classic books is difficult to read because they have many new words.

Find the word's dictionary definition is tedios and breaks the flow.

I tried reading those books in iPad and Kindle. The experience is not very smooth because,

  • It takes too much effort to select the word and send it to the dictionary. Particularly difficulty for me because I've got big fingers
  • The dictionary popup overlaps with the book's content. Feels not comfortable

In Emacs,

  • new words can be automatically highlighted
  • The book's content and dictionary are displayed side by side

The Emacs plugin mybigword 0.2.4 provides a new command mybigword-big-words-in-current-windows which automatically highlight the new words in current window with hint. Type the hint, the word's definition is displayed in another window.

Screenshot before running M-x mybigword-big-words-in-current-windows,

After,

The hint UI is actually based on avy.

Every English word can be measure by word frequency named Zipf Scale (see http://crr.ugent.be/papers/van_Heuven_et_al_SUBTLEX-UK.pdf for more details).

Any word with ZipF less than the value of mybigword-upper-limit is regarded as new word.

In my setup, mybigword-upper-limit is 3.6.
