DNS problem most likely at your ISP - sounds their DNS server machine underpowered.
generally one should avoid using your ISP for DNS anyway.
try 1.1.1.1 and secondary 8.8.8.8 - usually these have best response times.
test these in your PC, if works OK then those in your router so your phones etc can benefit too.

Learned it this weekend and it's amazing. If you don't know what it is, go to youtube and give it a try.
Serve with garlic-honey. For Sander; works equally amazing with (salted) tofu, and people will say it "tastes like chicken".
*) Everything in the title means "chicken". You can substitute it with bananas, but then it will taste bananas. Meaning, not like chicken. Still good, but not great. Great requires using chickens, not bananas.
..or tofu, marinated in chicken-broth to give it some taste.

Provided you discard even the concept of tofu first, I agree.

I you not vegatarian, than of course, real chicken. Nothing tastes more like chicken than chicken, does it?

That is the basic problem with all the vegetarian products. They try to sell you the idea of making meat out of soya beans...
And because it is very hard to do it costs a fortune...
IMHO a vegetarian should eat vegetables that made to explore the possibilities of that... Granted that meat can have a very rich taste, but there are so much kind of vegetables you can combine, all you have to do is put some effort in it instead of looking for the fast food option...
(Yes I am a vegetarian)
And by the way, my mother used to fry vegetables in blintzes with different spices in it for ages - very simmilar what you find here... And good also...

This!
I will never understand why some people have the need to create fake meat that taste like sh*t!
There are enough vegetables around that tastes good, that you don't need to.

"tastes like chicken" : exotic and/or overpriced and/or a lot more work or/and ... 'things'
you really want to cook [more expensive] crocodile 5 X longer than chicken
cook hundreds of frogs legs [more expensive] for a tiny slither of meat
cook ordinary not chicken food in a way to make it taste like chicken
...
what's wrong with ... ummm, chicken?
cheap, common, many supermarkets will even sell ready cooked (and later in the evening at half price)
and btw, tofu can not be made to taste like chicken short of blending no more than a teaspoon of tofu with a whole chicken and skimming off and throwing the crud that rises to the top when you cook it... and then throw the cooked remainder away because who want's to eat blended chicken?

I don't eat reptiles without feathers.

Chicken is tastier and cheaper. I don't like kermit-meat, it has a foul taste.

You can't turn beef into chicken, the texture would be wrong.

Nothing! Well, they're showing commercials locally that chicken from a certain supermarket is too cheap. They're sold by the kilo (look it up if you used to pounds), which makes my freezer happy. According to commercials, I'm supporting chicken murder. I have to admit to that

It can. It won't be vegetarian, but you can make taste tofu like chicken. Or beef. Or "vegetables", which has an indistiguishable salty taste. Or mushroom even, but that's about all the broth-tastes that are available.
Invite me, pay all costs, and I'll show you fried tjikken tofu

MURDER!
Chickens are actually very social and kind birds.
They even want to sit on your lap, much like cats or dogs
At least my parents' chickens do.
And they're surprisingly soft to the touch.
Even softer than a dog's or cat's fur

you can't house train birds.
.... so by all means, carry on and enjoy your lap birds

Yeah, although they'll try to get into the house 
They can walk around in the garden and when you sit outside in the summer they'll be sure to come say hello.
They're really nice birds once you get to know them 
Anyway, I don't mind that you eat chicken.
What I do mind is that these chickens are literally tortured.
They'll rip off their legs and beaks while they're still alive and leave them bleeding to death.
Same for other smart and friendly animals who are fully aware of what's done to them.
It really breaks my heart and it's so easy to treat them at least a little bit better.
And that sort of unnecessary cruelty is why I became a vegetarian 22 years ago 
If you've been following me you might now be tempted to say "but don't you work for a slaughterhouse?"
Yes I do and shush

I don't eat insects either, don't care if they the swimming kind, just no. Even dogs sound tastier than sea-insects.
Almost the same recipe I used; difference would be that I used 40% starch (of the weight of the flower used), half a teaspoon of baking powder, and a spoon of sriracha.
Drizel in honey-garlic(-jalapeno) sauce, and let me hear any complaints

Haven't tried any insects yet, sadly the local shop that sold them went bust last year.
They seem to be crispy though
