  1. Oh, I told them.
  2. Was gonna eat the Misfit turnip I got 3 days ago. Rotten inside. The sweet potatoes I ordered turned out not to be orange fleshed yams which they appeared to be, but some sort of white fleshed things that neither cook nor taste like the standard sweet potato. Irritating and ruined a dish.

    Breakfast 2021

    Tuna was named Norman? Charlie the Tuna is pretty sketchy, so Norman sounds better. Or invaders of England had tuna sandwiches?
  4. ditto the hood. Lots of good and bad advice on hoods. Plenty on eG about choice and power and installation
  5. High quality gas range (for me) Room for big fridge counter space for the Smart Oven/Steam Oven Cabinets for seldom -used appliances Pantry You can merge kitchen and DR by removing a wall usually. Typically there's a counter/island separating the two, so you'd gain counter space too. Island could be for informal dining
  6. Your misfits look way better than the dreck they sent me
  7. I suspect that the camera aesthetics dictated the pans over the stove
  8. I'd be interested in your solution. Its hard to design around tall cabinets and short people
  9. @rotuts is "of council"... like a senior partner, full of wisdom with no need to take depositions
  10. I believe that his notebook is red (which is the best), bound and with graph paper.
  11. I have a bound notebook with a few pages of temp and time for each meat type. Lots of annotations and addendums

    Dinner 2021

    I do this to romaine and endive (sans the braising) in butter in a saute pan, covered so it steams in its own juices. I'll try your way . sounds tasty

    @weinoo What's the Rx for the endive?

    Dinner 2021

    Breakfast for dinner ...funny, I thought I'd cleaned that plate up. Maybe put glasses on next time?
  15. That's horrible. You might contact BS. This shouldn't happen.
  16. Your Imperfect food looks way better than my Misfits stuff. Second box had 4 potatoes smaller than a ping pong ball, wilted lettuce, rutabaga, turnip, two good yellow onions, the rattiest beets I have ever seen, green onion, 2 apples, 2 lemons, nice small cauliflower, spag squash, 2 oranges, cherry tomatoes. So half of it will get tossed because of quality or uselessness. I unsubscribed. Maybe I'll give Imperfect a try.
  17. Is there a regulator for the oven? I think so. Our BS has been a beast for 3 or 4 years.

    Dinner 2021

    pork marsala, "baby broccoli", mashed potatoes
  19. That sucks. Is it the ignitor?
  20. Some of it was certainly endogenous. Success and acclaim don't necessarily bring happiness. Orson Wells...Bourdain.

    I see your point but, as tedious as it can be, taxonomy isn't trivial. Let down your guard on prawns and before you know it barbarians are at the gates

    Pedant that I am, I still distinguish between the two. And I'd contend that they cook differently too and the distinction is useful. In cooking we even distinguish between subtypes of one species all the time. Think of all the tomato and potato cultivars.

    Son and d-i-l requested dinner. Henry waiting for trimmings

    I'd need more than a can of chowder

    Rosemary gone wild!

    Yup. Celery has a lot of nitrates. The juice will make perfectly corned beef. It lets a sausage maker claim "no added nitrates" on what is an obviously cured meat.
