All righty, then. (Where'd that come from? The first person I
encountered who said it was Pat Rosenheim, and it was probably
not original from him.)

 AP> What is "Master Seafood Mixture"
 DD> Google is yer friend!!!
 DD> Title: Master Seafood Mixture
 DD> 1 lb Rock shrimp; diced 
 DD> 1 lb Chilean sea bass; diced 
 DD> 1 lb Bay scallops; diced 

Or any seafood of your choice. Traditional are milder
less oily things such as the above, but you could
substitute cheaper fish, even surimi. Or fancier:
lobster is nice.

 DD> 1 ts Sesame oil
 DD> 1/2 c  Chopped scallions
 DD> 1/4 c  Chopped cilantro
 DD> 1    Egg
 DD> Salt & ground white pepper 
 DD> 1 tb Minced ginger

The seasonings seem about right, though I've not
seen whole egg used - just egg white.

 RH> We have a dehumidifier in the basement with a collection "bucket".
 RH> When the weather is humid if not rainy, we use the water on the plants
 RH> outside. It's not potable water but the plants don't care.
 DD> Why wouldn't the water be potable? If the catch basin is clean - it is
 DD> just condensation ... like distilled water.

Because the air drawn through the coils contains dust and mold,
which collect on the coils just the same as the water and drip
down into the bin. We're talking basement here.

 DD> The water from an AC coil or a dehumidifier is clean and as sterile as
 DD> its environment. Also it classes as "soft" water (no lime). And it is
 DD> VERY neutral in taste (bland, bland, bland) as there are no dissolved
 DD> mineral in it. Or chlorine, flouride, etc. to pollute our precious
 DD> bodily fluids. 

Exactly. As clean as its environment. Rainwater should be clean,
too, but it isn't.
