Yesterday I saw this pan featured on one of the YouTube cooking shows that I enjoy: https://www.stratacookware.com/ The skillet uses a 3-layered construction unlike single layered traditional carbon steel pans. It uses a carbon steel cooking surface, an aluminum core, and a stainless steel outer layer. The result is said to provide the benefits of cooking on carbon steel with lighter weight provised by the aluminum middle layer. The reviews and tests that I watched from various videos were positive. https://youtu.be/o73ev0cC5pQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivikVNb1nY8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV96azQuj58 Has anyone tried this pan yet? Any thoughts on the design and construction from the cookware mavens? I'm seriously considering getting the 10-inch pan.

Not if you take my opinions an empirical fact and commands. Gosh you catch on slow

I've been grappling with the moral dilemma of being totally open or subjecting the innocent to crimes against food, so have so far avoided any mention of the yellow peril, although it seriously limits my posting options. I will consult my psychiatrist and probation officer over the weekend and make my final decision. "To post or not to post. That is the question. Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows or take arms against the yellow poison", as the 16th century pizza maker said.

I’m sure @liuzhou is saving the best for last!

still no sight of sweet corn. I've seen that in Norway!.

Fresh out of shrimp for the above? Don't worry! Grab yourself a bunch of rice paddy eels. They also offer this eel and mango version, but warn that if they run out of said mango, they'll use pineapple instead. They seem to have forgotten the "mayo" this time, but I'm sceptical whether they'll deliver it with or not.

I think it has some tenderizing effect, but based on my husband's perceptions the "tenderizing" may have more to do with the strategic cutting (and not overcooking!) of meat chunks. It is delicious, though.

Thank you. It sounds delicious. Does it also tenderize the meat or does it just add flavor? Maybe with something like this, there's hope for the crappy beef that we get here, which by the way is all grass-fed. Not a feedlot in the country.

Whoops! Yes, I had intended to include this link. Thank you for pointing out the lapse.

Very nice chickens. Do you pluck feathers by hand or use a machine?

Don't do that to yourself!

Crunchy, fatty, salty heresy. Mmmm.

@Smithy, were you intending to add a recipe? (Not that I'll ever need it!)

Spicy Pig's Ears.

isn’t this whole thread suggestions?

Could be. And they probably look worse in real life!

It's a pizza only place about a quarter of a mile from my home. Fairly popular so far as I can see. I often pass it. It's been there for a few years now and they have opened a second branch so someone must be biting.

Japanese Kewpie Sweet "Mayonnaise".

It's a one woman show. I've not done this many at once (this is at least double my usual) and my concession to the amount will be using the food processor to slice the peppers!

Maybe the photos are AI generated!

Is this delivery place specializing in "pizza"? or pizza is just one of their offerings in a multi-page menu? It looks (from the photo!) that they're just cutting/pasting the pizza image onto the wooden board.... wonder if they ever sell any of these?

Sounds intriguing. I have a mango just going ripe, shrimp in the freezer and some wasabi, uh, green horseradish that somebody gave me. Sounds like just thing for dinner tomorrow night. I just need to know what kind of mayonnaise. Is it Chinese, Japanese, or maybe durian flavored?

Obviously you’ve done this before, a first timer wouldn’t know to do this much prep the day before. Will this be a one woman production, or do you have help?

The title pretty much says it all. Kitchen Curious, a new Vivian Howard TV series is set to start airing on PBS beginning 6 Oct 2025 Here's a link: https://www.kitchencurioustv.com

I’ve never used them but I’ve always been intrigued by Opinel https://www.amazon.com/s?k=Opines+paring&rh=n%3A8521791011&ref=nb_sb_noss
