WHAT IS MANGO WITH STICKY RICE?
Mango Sticky Rice (ข้าวเหนียว มะม่วง) is a dessert made with sticky rice, fresh mango, and coconut milk, and flavored with crunchy roasted mung beans. It is a ubiquitous dessert in Thailand, as well as Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam, and has also become common in other countries in Southeast Asia and beyond.
Although it can be served year-round, it is most popular in April and May when it is mango season.
WHAT IS STICKY RICE?
Glutinous rice is very popular in Thailand and in this region in general. In addition to mango with sticky rice, it is also used in other popular desserts such as Khao tom, which consists of sticky rice wrapped in banana leaves and steamed.
This dessert reminds us of Koba Ravina from Madagascar, although we use glutinous rice flour for this dessert. Khao mak is another popular Thai dessert made with sticky rice. This dessert is prepared with look-pang, a starchy ball made with garlic, galangal, pepper, and yeast, allowing the sticky rice to ferment and develop a certain alcohol content, which is why this dessert is traditionally a dessert for adults.
RICE IN THAILAND
Thailand has historically been the world's number one rice exporter, but India and Vietnam have challenged this position in recent years. Thailand offers a great variety of rice beyond sticky rice.
The most famous is, of course, jasmine rice, also called hom mali (Thai aromatic rice), a sweet smelling long grain rice that traditionally accompanies Thai curry, such as Kaeng kari kai (yellow curry). But Thailand also has other interesting rices such as brown sticky rice (khao neow dum) or colorful rices (green: pandan leaves, or blue: anchan or butterfly pea flower) that are used in desserts.
HOW TO MAKE STICKY RICE
Khao niaw (sticky rice or sweet rice) is often eaten with the hands when served with dishes influenced by the Northeast (Isan region) such as laab . Thai sticky rice is traditionally steamed in a bamboo basket called huad (or huat). However, it can also be cooked in a rice cooker, although the result may not be so light.
HOW TO MAKE MANGO WITH STICKY RICE
For the mango with sticky rice, once the sticky rice is cooked, you have to “dump it”. In Thai, mun means to pile up. This operation consists of mixing the sweetened coconut milk with the sticky rice.
Once the sticky rice has absorbed all of the coconut milk, it is topped with a salty version of the same sweetened coconut milk. This combination of sweet and savory might not appeal to some people, and I was hesitant about it when I first tried this dessert over 10 years ago. However, it just works! The same salty sauce can also be placed on top of the mango. Finally, the dessert is sprinkled with roasted mung beans, although it can also be found with roasted or black sesame seeds.
The type of mango commonly used for this Thai mango sticky rice dessert is the juicy name dawk mai and ok rong varieties. If you can't find those varieties where you live, just go for ripe mangoes.
You can't go wrong with mango and sticky rice, and this dessert is the easy kind of dessert to make for any Southeast Asian meal. Sweet, tasty and delicious!

Why Learn Phrasal Verbs?
If phrasal verbs are that complicated, why should I learn them? Perhaps you are asking yourself this question, but know that these verbs are used a lot by native English speakers. Furthermore, this is one of the reasons why people say they studied English, but when they arrive in the United States they cannot understand much, they get lost, they cannot communicate in English.
The Phrasal Verbs are used in the everyday life of native speakers as in more formal terms too, so because of its complexity is very important that you start to study and learn to identify them now, which can then be more difficult.
To get you started, let's look at some simple tips you can apply to your reading and studying English to learn Phrasal Verbs faster.
Watch the particles
The key to learning most Phrasal Verbs in many cases lies in looking at the particles that the verbs come with. Below I will give 2 examples so you can get an idea.

Explanation: You could understand the Phrasal Verbs of the above two examples just by their particles. In fact, if you have the basic knowledge of certain particles, then it's much easier to understand Phrasal Verbs.
Note the verb too
Sooner or later you will notice that in some Phrasal Verbs the particles are just for decoration, not representing any meaning to the verb. In these cases, only the verb has the full meaning. For example, look at these two sentences below and try to figure out the meaning of the Phrasal Verbs in each one.
The coffee machine broke down yesterday.
The children were running about the park.
In the above sentences, you can identify the meaning of Phrasal Verbs just by looking at the verbs. The particles are only there for decoration (I usually think they are there to make English more natural and interesting). Now see your translations.

Children were running/playing in the park.

note the context
One of the most important points that I always like to emphasize, whether in Phrasal Verbs or idioms, is related to the context of the sentence.
When reading a text or listening to a dialogue in English, try to ask yourself what is being said, ask what the main topic is, what are people talking about? What is being discussed?
Once you understand what the main theme of a given text is, it will be much easier for you to understand the Phrasal Verbs that are being used. Let's see how this works in practice.
Once you understand how Phrasal Verbs are structured, knowing how to observe their meaning both by their particles and in their context, it is ideal that you write down the synonyms of the verbal sentences you have learned.
This makes it easier for you to understand when reading in English, helps you remember faster, and also increases your vocabulary even more.
Here's how you can write it down in your vocabulary notebook: To do up - Renovate, modernize
Synonym - To refurbish, to improve
Our neighbors have just finished doing up their flat and it looks so much nicer!- Our neighbors just renovated their apartment and it is much prettier.
Conclusion
As you may have noticed in these 4 tips above, none of them tells you that you should make a list of Phrasal Verbs English – Portuguese and try to memorize everything, thinking that you will learn or improve your English that way.
The best thing is to go little by little, a language should not be something for yesterday, but something that, although it requires a lot of effort and dedication, can be done with patience and good use.
Die globale Pandemie hat uns leider einen Sommer voller aufregender internationaler Fußballspiele verweigert, da die Europameisterschaften, die bis Juni und Juli stattfinden sollen, auf 2021 verschoben wurden.
Zum Glück bietet das Internet eine Fülle von Möglichkeiten, die Zeit zu vertreiben und den Nervenkitzel eines internationalen Turniers nachzuahmen - von britischen Online-Slots bis zu einer Vielzahl von Online-Spielen zum Thema Sport. Darüber hinaus haben Sie alle Highlights und Turniere der Vergangenheit. In Großbritannien zeigt ITV sogar jedes Spiel des historischen Euro 96-Turniers.
Für einige ist natürlich nichts besser als die Aufregung, mit der eine Wette platziert worden wäre, auf welche Seite ihr Land stolz sein wird. Das heißt aber nicht, dass wir uns nicht auf das Turnier mit einigen der besten Teams freuen können. Also, wer sind die Favoriten des Buchmachers für die Euro 2021 und welches Team wäre eine kluge Wahl, wenn das Turnier irgendwann im nächsten Sommer stattfindet?
England - die beste Chance Großbritanniens
Die Mannschaft von Gareth Southgate war stolz auf ihr Land, als sie bei der Weltmeisterschaft 2018 den vierten Platz belegte. Nach Jahren der Enttäuschung war es für die meisten eine Überraschung, als sie Kolumbien und Schweden besiegten, um das Halbfinale zu erreichen, bevor sie nach Kroatien fielen. Das könnte Sie auch interessieren EM 2021 Top-Wettquoten
Für 2021 wird England eine sehr beeindruckende Mannschaft haben, solange die Schlüsselspieler fit bleiben. Der Mannschaftskapitän und Weltklasse-Stürmer Harry Kane wird höchstwahrscheinlich die Führung übernehmen, während junge Spieler der Champions League wie Trent Alexander-Arnold und Jaden Sancho Southgate eine hervorragende Auswahl bieten werden. Ein weiteres Jahr Fußball in der ersten Mannschaft könnte diesen jungen Starts den nötigen Schub geben.
Frankreich
Die aktuellen Weltmeister erholten sich von jahrelanger Enttäuschung mit ihrer Krönung im Jahr 2018 und werden versuchen, ihren Erfolg im nächsten Jahr fortzusetzen. Ihre Auftritte in Russland waren geradezu spektakulär und sorgten dafür, dass sie diesmal kein Außenseiter sind.
Mit einigen der renommiertesten Namen im Fußball wie Kylian Mbappé, Paul Pogba und Antoine Griezmann wird die Mannschaft von Didier Deschamps versuchen, ihre Dominanz zu verdoppeln, indem sie 2021 einen weiteren Titel anstrebt.
Portugal
Bruno Fernandes Cristiano Ronaldo Portugal
Die Inhaber des Europameistertitels mögen standardmäßig einer der Favoriten sein, aber sie haben den Kader, um diese Behauptung zu unterstützen. Portugal, angeführt vom legendären Cristiano Ronaldo, wird versuchen, seinen Titel zu behalten, nachdem es 2016 auf französischem Boden zurückgewonnen wurde.
Portugal hat neben Ronaldo auch Spitzenspieler wie das Manchester United-Paar Bruno Fernandes und Fred sowie den Weltklasse-Youngster João Félix und den Schussstopper Rui Patrício von Wolverhampton Wanderers. Sie können auch lesen EM 2021 Spielplan
Belgien
Es ist kaum zu glauben, dass Belgien noch nie ein großes internationales Turnier gewonnen hat, da es einen der beeindruckendsten Kader der Welt hat. Aber sie warten immer noch auf ihren Moment. Selbst wenn die Euro um ein Jahr verschoben werden, werden die Roten Teufel immer noch eine starke Seite haben, die ihnen hoffentlich Ruhm bringen wird.
Belgien, das vom Flügelspieler von Real Madrid, Eden Hazard, geleitet wird und durch den meisterhaften Tod von Kevin De Bruyne verankert ist, wird versuchen, seinen Talentreichtum, darunter Romelu Lukaku und Thibault Courtois, zu seinem Vorteil zu nutzen.
Die Außenseiter
Andere Teams, die in den letzten Turnieren nicht so gut gespielt haben, sind möglicherweise ebenfalls einen Blick wert, wenn der Wettbewerb irgendwann kommt. Deutschland, das 2018 eine katastrophale Weltmeisterschaft hatte, wird versuchen, sich davon zu erholen und seinen früheren Ruhm zu finden, während die Niederlande, die sich nicht einmal für Russland qualifiziert haben, versuchen werden, ihr Potenzial auszuschöpfen und im Euro Erfolg zu haben 2021.

Tips for a successful first date
1. Look good, feel better
Regardless of sexual preference, people are generally drawn to physical indicators of bodily health, such as glowing skin, clean hair, and sparkling eyes. Besides looking healthy, the most important thing is to look good and presentable. The smell is one of the most important indicators of whether a person will be interested in the long term for another: a pleasant perfume is better than anything else.

The places give an idea of the environment in which the best cuckold sites for couples will take place.

Worry about being an authentic person and good luck!
Many flat roofs, for example on garages or garden houses, are covered with roofing felt. This is practical and is much faster than applying individual roof shingles. But even this unproblematic roof covering has at some point reached its lifespan and needs to be replaced. Many hobby craftsmen recommend simply laying new roofing felt over the old, often somewhat damaged roofing felt. This saves the annoying and often not so easy removal of the roofing felt and, above all, disposal, because this is quite expensive, albeit rightly. So that you know what to look for when removing roofing felt and which tool is best, we have written this small but fine article.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO REMOVE ROOFING FELT?
As always in life, nothing lasts forever - not even roofing felt. It is exposed to wind and weather all year round and UV radiation, rain, and wind can damage it to such an extent that the roofing felt actually has to be replaced at some point. For a few years, you will probably do a little patchwork every now and then, laying a little bitumen here and a small new runway there, but you cannot postpone a complete renovation forever. Now some may be wondering why you should do the job and remove the old roofing felt. Can't you just put another layer on top and get even better protection from wind, weather, and water? In principle, one could agree with this but also bear in mind that the roofing felt has a really great weight, which then lies on your roof structure. In addition, the risk of fire increases with each position.
If you are also the proud owner of old tar paper or even roofing felt containing asbestos, then we can only urge you to remove it as quickly as possible and completely. These roofing felt materials have been taken off the market for decades because they are extremely harmful to the environment and health. You can simply send a piece of your commercial roof repair in Austinfelt to a disposal company and ask for analysis. With tar paper, you will be stuck with your nose when removing it, because you will encounter the typical smell of tar.
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROOFING FELT
For the sake of completeness, we would like to briefly explain the different types of roofing felt to you.
ASBESTOS
Asbestos is now banned in Germany because it is a particularly carcinogenic material. Until the 1970s, and who knows, perhaps far beyond that among private individuals, asbestos was very popular in residential construction and also in roofing.
TAR PAPER
It used to be common practice that roofing felt was tar paper. But that hasn't been the case for a while. The production of tar paper was stopped in Germany a few years ago. Although tar paper is not quite as harmful to health as asbestos, it is by no means harmless. The so-called PAH compounds, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, are hazardous to health.
BITUMINOUS BOARD
Today roofing felts are made from bitumen. As the name suggests, the mats or sheets are no longer soaked in tar, but rather in bitumen. They are less harmful to the environment and health because they contain fewer PAH compounds. The bitumen cardboard is not entirely free of harmful substances, which is why proper work protection with robust long clothing, gloves, protective goggles, and a respirator is just as mandatory when removing as with other types of roofing felt. Bitumen cardboard is also not disposed of in normal bulky waste or even in household waste. But we already recommended our special contribution to disposal.
PROBLEMS WITH REMOVING ROOFING FELT
Most problems with removing roofing felt are caused by the fact that gaps and faults have at some point been patched with liquid bitumen. This means that the roof is tight again, but the effort involved in removing the bitumen layer from the roof can be incredibly high. The most effective way to remove both the bitumen sheeting and the patches is with a spatula and chisel. But that is very time-consuming and sometimes also exhausting.
A second problem with removing roofing felt is one that goes in the healthy direction. You will come across it less and less, but it does happen every now and then. We are talking about tar paper, which is harmful to health, or even roofing felt that still contains asbestos. When removing, you should not only wear long clothing, protective goggles, and a breathing mask but also take care of proper disposal in advance, because this is subject to documentation for these materials.
But modern bitumen sheeting or panels must also be properly disposed of. In the article Disposing of roofing felt - how to do it correctly for you, we have put together what you have to consider and what costs you will have to pay.
With nailed roofing felt, you usually have no problems removing it again. Set it up with a spatula, preferably in the corners, and with a little force, you can easily pull off the roofing felt. The roofing paper sticks shop fly around your ears a bit. But most roofs are glued or welded with bitumen or sometimes with tar paper. Removing these webs requires a lot more effort and most likely also involves the use of special tools.
REMOVE STUCK OR WELDED ROOFING FELT
Most modern roofs are covered with bitumen welding sheeting, which is welded or glued and often also attached with roofing pegs. If you are faced with such a challenge, a cutter knife or a small angle grinder that you use to score the roofing felt and then simply tear it off will not help you out. Now you have to use special tools. To remove the welded or glued roofing felt, you can either work with a scarfing device or a stripper. Of course, we explain both.
REMOVE ROOFING FELT WITH THE SCARFING DEVICE
Scarfing devices are special welding devices for removing bitumen sheeting or roofing felt. The devices are quite expensive, so the best thing to do is to ask for a loaner at the hardware store. Then it goes with it (and in protective clothing if you go!) Onto the roof. Use the scarfing device to heat a bitumen sheet at the beginning and then pull off each sheet with a little force. It's best if you work in pairs. One of them repeatedly warms the region where the web is just throwing up the edges, and the second is continuously peeling off. As already described in the problems, you can come across patches and gap fillers that are not webs, but pure bitumen paste. Usually, only the laborious removal with a spatula and chisel helps.
REMOVE ROOFING FELT WITH THE STRIPPER
A second way to remove the roofing felt is to use a stripper. No, we are not talking about a stripper in the sense with a hard hat and checked shirt, but the device. A stripper is also used by roofers. You may know the device as a carpet stripper. So it's actually a pretty big spatula that's motorized. With this device, carpet residues and glue or even roofing felt are scraped off. The layer underneath is not damaged in the process. The Stripper is available as a handheld device for smaller areas, but also as a heavy device for operating while standing and walking. Inquire at the hardware store which is the right stripper for your purposes.
AND WHAT ABOUT A ROOFER?
Of course, as always, the saying “it is the man” applies. But especially when it comes to roofing, you can think about hiring a professional. Removing the roofing felt with the scarfing device can release toxic gases, the work is really no picnic and the devices are expensive. In addition, there are also the costs for disposing of the roofing felt. Ultimately, where something has been removed, something new has to be added again. With all the time and costs that can arise for a small garage roof, it is worthwhile to get information from roofing companies beforehand. It is not so rare that you get a lot cheaper by hiring a professional to bring all his material and dispose of all waste than if you were to do it yourself. Who of course just has fun with it,
