  1. @Kerry Beal whats that steam engine in the background?
  2. That sounds less gross than an actual FP.
  3. nb A "proper" Frito pie is made in an upside-down bag of chips. This lets all the alleged goodness of the frito dust permeate the whole.
  4. Chef's knife for me. Drawn across the corn ala Pepin
  5. My life wouldn't change much. Perhaps I'd eat the same food but in better locations.

    Mandolines

    I use the heck out of my simple V-slicer. But if it required assembly, I'd probably use a knife for all but the biggest jobs.

    Dinner 2025

    Salmon with corn risotto (made with corn stock)
  8. re the sniff test A "negative" sniff test doesn't exclude all kinds of badness
  9. Interesting thought! AI says fly maggots die at 111F, so cooking red meat beyond rare should do it. Freezing ought to do it too. IIRC the only beastie not killed by freezing is polar bear (but not pig) trichinella.
  10. The Dinner thread is a good one. So is the Kitchen Consumer forum. Welcome!

    Food recalls

    Completely agree I really can't understand why any business would sell BH, much less advertise selling it. Worth mentioning that Dietz and Watson, a big Philly cold cuts manufacturer with a national presence, has always offered tours to anyone who asked. Well-known here that they are squeaky clean. The Inquirer wrote them up a while ago as exemplary. https://www.dietzandwatson.com/factory-tour
  12. USDA has strict definitions for butter.

    Dinner 2025

    Meatloaf/meatball mixes are in every supermarket here. All have beef/pork, some have veal too. I often substitute pork sausage for ground pork,just because I have it available.

    Lunch 2025

    Smoked trout orzo salad
  15. @TdeV I am decidedly pro.
  16. I have an old round top neuro-fuzzy Zoj. Not exactly speedy, its true, but it makes good rice. The big question for me is whether flat-top plays songs when it starts and stops.

    Dinner 2025

    @C. sapidus I just figured it was a long trip.

    Dinner 2025

    Fried chicken, potato salad, garden tomato salad with balsamic glaze.
  19. Me too. When I think ahead enough. Usually its only a few hours.
  20. I use ice cube -by-cube for brown spirits. So a few small nuggets is too much surface area and therefore dilution. But, by careful experimentation, one can find a small nugget ratio that is workable, I guess. EUHOMY...I guess means true or good HOMY. I do have a bit of trouble thinking my way through TUATNUT.
  21. You're not sick you're just in love
  22. Host's note: this post and several following posts refer to the original title, "Titanium Cutting Boards". Plenty of ads online. Designed to eliminate plastic etc etc. They have to kill a knife's edge. Wood still looks good to me.
  23. Lots of rain for us too. Tomatoes are slow getting red, but doing OK. Early Girl >> Celebrity in flavor. Henry-the-turd only got one good one.
  24. It sure looks small. Would your bread pans fit? Can it roast a 5lb chicken?
