@Duvel perhaps this the situation for applying America's Test Kitchen's technique of cooking from frozen. Or use a torch?

I'd add, litany, laundry list (for lists that do not involve laundry), shopping spree, slather, glug, unpack (meaning to explain). I'll get back to you with more ......epicenter (when you really mean center, an epicenter is near/above the center)

Most schmaltz sold in my part of the US is chicken fat. Duck fat is labelled as duck fat. Oxidized/rancid fat is the worst. Smells like crayons. Barf.

I'd buy it for the title alone

I settled on a $5 2nd edition as an appetizer.

I think @Kerry Beal got the last cheap one!

Braised short rib ragu

Great pans from them

Just a few days after Xmas and the candles have largely disappeared in SE PA

Since as long as I can remember.

@Duvel what is this device?

Christmas dinner 2023 was smaller. Just 4 of us a daughter and an old friend. Henry with his new squishy toy, an elephant that he likes as much as the moose...success! Tenderloin with rosemary butter, glazed carrots, roasted broccoli and au gratin potatoes Sticky toffee pudding

Andouille sausage meatloaf with chutney, carrots rapee, mash

sweet! You can line that tray under the burners with foil and save the scrubbing.

@rotuts what is WHPS? And what is that beast of a stove that's in soft focus?

Jars would be at a possible risk of breaking if there was a pressure differential between the wall and the inside. Doesn't sound like that would be the case. FWIW, I don't think vacuum sealers draw that much pressure so it could break a jar.

To a marketer "farm style" sounds better than "thick".

My old style box grater gives these fat shreds. Not sure 'farmstyle' has meaning to anyone but Tillamook, though

I was in Japan a few yrs ago ...going to dinner at an old restaurant in a group. They filed through the door and I followed...until I got hit in my 6'2" forehead by the doorframe and got knocked down. When they were sure I was ok they thought it pretty funny...me too... (there had been a good deal of drink already).

I was wondering that myself. I'm not yet rickety, but I sure don't fold or unfold like I used to

Peanut , almond, and caramel !

Had a pot luck yesterday and everybody signed-up for the worthwhile dishes. So I made a M&M casserole. 3 different types! It was well-received . Recipe is available.

looks well-used

Herr's ripple chips with spray cheese and sriracha. It started as a way to get a dog to gobble down medicine...and then I'd eat one to show him it was OK...and then the sriracha... 😀
