Would you consider adding sliced/diced peaches in the filling? Peach can an elusive flavor so a concentrated syrup can help boost the flavor. I'd suggest a judicious use of spice though; you don't want to overpower the peach so maybe cinnamon in only one element? Maybe in the feuilletine? Possibly infuse some thyme into the peach syrup with allspice?

We use the recipe from The Cake Bible - it's based on yolks, butter, lemon juice and sugar; it can freeze. We use it on cake layers, we use it to flavor our buttercream. You can add an extra yolk or two if you want it to be thicker; you mix the yolks and sugar together first, then add the lemon juice and butter and cook over medium heat (stirring constantly) and cook until it gets to 186dF; strain and add some fresh lemon zest if you want.

In my young adult days living in NYC, my friends and I had a Saturday (mid)night ritual: NY Times crossword and Ben and Jerry's NY Super Fudge Chunk. It's still a favorite (along with Haagen Daz Chocolate-Almond coated vanilla bars).

Thank you Shel, there's one in my cart! The handle broke on our cheap grater, this looks much sturdier.

Yeah, I'd get in on that too! (a CSO) Kenneth's description of the air fryer spring rolls did me in. Now I want one too!

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?

I like what I like and I doubt I'd change my eating habits if I ever had such a windfall. Maybe I could afford to indulge in what I like more often (champagne, fois gras) than once a year. But the question makes me think of what I would really miss if I couldn't afford it anymore..... just today I was wondering what else we would/could have for Christmas dinner (usually I get a beef roast like a prime rib) because the price of beef is just insane....

I have 17 more days til ours is opened. Unless I cave before that day... which if there are more additions to this thread as @rotus uses his new one, i may well do!

It just got delivered and I so want to just bring it home today lol; but then I'd feel obligated to get another gift for the actual birthday

Done and Done! gets delivered tomorrow (ha, if you believe anything Prime says) but his birthday is in two weeks. So shipped to the shop !

oh you people ... such enablers. my husband has finally seen the light regarding his diet after a brief scare (thinking he had colon cancer, he doesn't; his cholesterol is high enough to warrant action though) and is now insisting on brown rice, steel cut oatmeal and a host of other things he would never eat before. Aside from the fact that I now have to share my brown rice (!) I'm seriously considering getting a rice cooker because he would be more inclined to use it. His birthday is in a few weeks so it can be a birthday gift... Strike while the iron is hot, so to speak. (And now he embraces the fact that we've been in the Bean Club for so long instead of complaining about the bean bags all over the pantry LOL) there is going to be no room on my counter soon for all the appliances on it (the Smart Oven, the bread machine, the KA, the air fryer...) I think it's time I get a stainless steel table in the kitchen for the appliances or my prep space! @rotuts which model did you get? and thank you @DesertTinker for the link to the articles, they're very helpful

why oh why did I start reading this thread..... OK, Black Friday is coming, Black Friday is coming...

Did Mary your lunch lady give you the recipe she used? I've never had succotash and now I'd like to try it. I always gave away the lima beans and sometimes traded the Royal Coronas in my Bean box but now I'll save them to make this...

I was reading this thread with increasing anticipation, saying "he'd *better* have bought that or I will, and send it to him, take that man out of his misery!" And, I don't have one of these so I can't relate to the devotion but I can absolutely appreciate it! Please tell us when it arrives and if your pan fits

Ewww to the Barbie food and licking a battery? Who does that? and why?
