  1. Dinner at Souvla. Lamb sandwich for me. Chicken sandwiches for @Chocolot and Romina. Juicy potatoes - cooked in rotisserie drippings Shared salad Then down the street to Salt and Straw Icecream Sea salt with caramel ribbons for Ro Roasted strawberry tres Leche for @Chocolot and myself.
  2. Spent the day at the Fancy Food Show - can't say I saw anything that blew me away. Spanish pavilion - nice piece of tuna. Put in your dollar - it bakes your loaf of bread. Guittards two new milk chocolates - found them quite sweet.
  3. I believe you still use the same number of turns with the Tutove - the theory is that is is less likely to rip the dough as I recall.
  4. This is apparently a $75 lunch - subsidized $45 by the event - eaten in a few short minutes before my tempering demo lunch and learn.
  5. Not from the Costco ones
  6. Likely not - they might be here.
  7. It was amazingly good for a hotel buffet - of course very dear.
  8. No snacks last night at the reception so we woke a bit peckish this am. Headed down to the hotel buffet to take our chances.
  9. If I were to need to try that dripping from the bottle, blowing with the empty airbrush to splatter - I'd have to have a new piece of parchment under for each colour in order to reclaim the cocoa butter. That much waste would drive me nuts. Makes me appreciate my Fuji which lets me splatter directly by just turning down the airflow.
  10. Exactly - raisin and oatmeal, softish but with a little crunch!
  11. Lunch at Yank Sing. @Chocolot, myself, Wendy (owner of Socola Chocolatier) and her SIL Fam.
  12. Coffee and nibbles at Socola this am! and of course an EZtemper in it's natural habitat
  13. Need one of those for hubbies pistachio eating.
  14. I wonder if it's a spice style or something. The beans were I suspect almost deep fried after being cooked. The menu mentions Issan style - wonder what that might be?
  15. Someone needs to look in David Thompson's Thai Food and find me a recipe for the Nam Tok Beans to give me a reason to pick up some Rancho Gordo Cranberry beans tomorrow.
  16. I shall do my best to remember when I get back - if I fail please remind me.
  17. I found 1/8, 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4 I believe - some may have been other brands. I think the thin one is 3M and I might have found it in Michaels - though I might have looked at it there and bought it on Amazon. I'm thrifty like that!
  18. Cook's Illustrated March 1996 had a chicken stock that was made with chopped chicken pieces and a technique that sauteed the pieces until they gave up their juice before adding any extra water that made a lovely rich soup.
  19. Costco's near me sell bags of huge russets - perhaps I should say huge bags of huge russets. I have found them to be excellent in terms of flavor and texture.
  20. LOL - not sure - I have my computer, my phone and my book - internet is slow so I read while eG loads!
