  1. I really think that Grayson was toast from early on. Padma gave her the stink eye on the first show. Good for Grayson that she didn't disappear without a complaint about the decision.
  2. It was a little potato...maybe 3 bites. I didn't par cook it. That sounds like a good idea. The ends were a little dry. Slicing tip...put the spud between two chopsticks as a knife guide.
  3. Hasselback potato with interstitial pimiento cheese. A tasty two bites.
  4. I love the BSO. If it dies,I'd still replace it rather than get the CSO. Now if CSO was bigger....
  5. I electrified part of the knife block. Now my wife can only abuse certain knives. No more breaking down a butternut with a delicate knife.
  6. I'm surprised Grayson didn't just say F--k it / you and blow off the LCK. Make a hot dog or something. Padma needs to show some respect for these guys who actually have some skills and accomplishments. Oh? You say she wrote a cookbook? So did Dinah Shore. So what? Very tired of her.

    Fun with a centrifuge

    If you spin for even an hour bacteria are a concern if there's no cooling. Room temp is bad enough, but the air friction will heat the centrifuge. I'd use refrigeration.

    Mekelburg's

    Wow. That's some fast company you are in. Very cool. And what a quick recognition for a joint that hasn't been there a year! So did you know Wells had been in or was this out of the blue?
  9. Does Chinese have the same alternate meaning for "nuts" as English?

    Alcatra

    This recipe sounds great. I really enjoy aromatic spices with stewed meat. Cinnamon, ginger or 5 spice adds a beautiful note. Completely agree about crap bread at good restaurants. No excuse at all.

  12. If Earl Butz is in there can Bebe Rebozo be far behind?
  13. I pulled up the nutrition facts. It looks like steak sauce pretty much. http://staging.sansaire.com/wp-content/themes/sansaire_2/includes/images/Sansaire%20Steak%20Aging%20Sauce%20-%20Nutrition%20Label%20vertical.pdf
  14. Just got this Microplane Spiralizer $13 and it actually works. Microplane Spiral Slicer Green I had the Briefton mentioned above. Complete POS, I sent it back.
  15. The first batch of Christmas pimiento cheese.

    Turkey Breast Tendons

    All I need are toothed Adson forceps for dissection and a decent sized hemostat for fish bones.

    Dinner 2015 (Part 6)

    Some recent dinners Tomato, arugula, sage fritata Duck with lingonberry gastrique, spiced red cabbage, fingerlings 5 spice braised short rib with an indecent amount of braised veg and crusty bread Lamb chops with cranberry demiglace, potatoes and roasted cauliflower
  18. I think that the Elves do a lot of editing to keep their narrative going. They need villains and bitches and innocent naifs. I think judges might well be encouraged to let their inner a-hole out. I think of that twit from the White House busting a Voltaggio's chops about whether tomatoes were fruit or veg. He showed remarkable self control. More than I would've.
  19. Right. I've long said that Tom is partially FOS and a bit of a bully. By way of contrast, Padma is completely FOS.
