  1. So much to comment on. I'll restrain myself. FDA approves medicines that at the wrong dose might be harmful. That's not approving a poison. MSG is not dangerous. Ever eat a bag of Doritos? That's a shitload of glutamate. Nobody has died. Medical writers and reporters are among the most uninformed, stop listening to them. They'll say anything for a click.
  2. Rotovap is kind of a no heat distillation. Anything volatile (ie flavor) will come off and probably at a lower temp than the water you are trying to remove I think I'd experiment with shorter times to hopefully concentrate flavor , but leaving a usable liquid behind. Its not obvious to me that this would work.

    Haven't had it in a while. The regulation method is to cut out a tiny wedge to prevent curling. Looks like a pacman.

    About the size of 3 Spams, though. And far better. @rotuts you can get smaller tranches at amazon too

    Have you considered Taylor Pork roll? Far superior to SPAM.
  11. I make mine between 2 small sheet pans in the oven. Or on the stovetop between 2 steel pans. Or I snip the fatty parts in several places to stop the curl if cooking alone in a pan. The curl comes from different contraction of the bacon fat vs meat when heated

  14. I know what that is, an a-hole move on his part. That is despicable.
  15. She did replace Katie Lee Joel so Padma was an upgrade from that.
  16. @eugenepi never got why she was there. So she wrote a cookbook....
  17. Padma L is leaving Top Chef to pursue other projects. That's fine with me. Just don't let Gail get away.

    I think I'd just eliminate the wrapper. I can't see romaine here. @Darienne I'd marinate and fry. You are right...out of the can its gross.

  21. Toasting is a repair technique. Freshens a tough bagel.
