any foams?

No that's perfect. You won't be tempted to eat it or use it like other things that could be signed. You can frame it. I lost a Gary Player-signed golf hat because I was dopey enough to actually use it.

So why did Conde Nast fire everybody and announce the demise, only to re-invent the thing? http://www.bonappetit.com/
I haven't seen the magazine but the website is a little chummy and casual in its writing style. Phrases like "our bad" and other (not-so-)trendy wording. Perhaps they want the Bitchin Kitchen audience.

I'd sear after the SV, prior to serving.

Beautiful!
I'm jealous. My seeds are just sprouting.

US Healthcare is expensive for all of those reasons and, the simple fact that it is the best.
I hope you are not serious. In which other countries have you lived especially in the western world ? Healthcare in the US compared to many countries in western Europe is far from the best but rather disappointing.
So go over to the UK next time you want to see a specialist or have a transplant. Be sure to let us know how it goes. You may have lived in other countries, but I'm sure you weren't seriously ill, or even worse, old and seriously ill... or you'd have another viewpoint.
US healthcare is indeed the best in the world though it is inefficient and expensive.
What's this have to do with food?

Maybe I could get it cheap from you?

Then their food better be free and not suck and be what my kid would want to eat.
Its tempting to rant about government intrusion on family responsibilities/rights etc, but this isn't even government in the elected sense. Its just some bureaucrat overstepping his/her job description. Probably one who wasn't trained for the job they are in and one who gets little supervision or guidance.

Our Spring is late this year in SE PA. Feels like mid March. I think the 5b last frost date will the the earliest I can plant. :-(

The whole weekend must seem a bit dreamlike/surreal. Long Flights + Jet Lag + High Level Companions + Fabulous Meals must = "Did this just happen?"

Turkey or chicken breast
Beef tenderloin
Brisket

I see ads in Food Arts for various ovens that do more than heat and convection. They sound magical. What they do exactly, I don't know. Steam may be involved. Or elves.
Can someone explain these things? Are there home units?

Out of the 50 courses, how many did you NOT like? You made a comment about the eels.
That was the only course where I actually didn't enjoy the food. There were two or three others -- the ice chips with soy come to mind -- where I thought the dish wasn't so amazing. But the dishes were almost all great.
The eel was the only one that didn't look great to me.

Raw chicken?
Why not? My dogs catch and eat raw squirrels, rabbits and songbirds.
LOL. Mine almost got a peacock the other day. Where it came from I have no idea. Not the normal avifauna of PA.

I know nothing about Mexican chorizo except that I love eating it. This should be a great thread!

JB, trouble is when you shrink a group shot down to eG-avatar size the details are not clear enough. Ellen has been telling me for a while that I need a new avatar photo, and has agreed to take said photo, but we were waiting for me to get a haircut. So maybe we'll attend to that soon.
I'm in the process of preparing for departure now. I'm going to meet Johnny in the lobby in about an hour and we'll travel together to the airport. If I get through check-in and security in a timely manner, and there's a wifi connection, I'll start posting elBulli dinner material.
Agreed on getting a new photo. The current one always reminds me of a Judy Garland album cover.
Not that you look like her, just the pose.

What's a chicken frame?

I'm amazed at the venom directed against those who fail to bow to the siphon.
Who'd have thunk?

Whenever open mindedness is invoked...or an opinion labeled a phobia or a hatred ...you know that arguers position is weak if not baseless. Disliking foam has no moral component.

You are blessed! Don't eat too much.

There definitely are poisons in the leaves. Whether they are enough to hurt you depends on dosage. Dosage depends on how much is in the leaf, how efficiently cooking extracts it and how big the person is. Lots of variables.
My bet would be that the biggest variable would be how much is in the leaf. If its like other plant chemicals, the poisons would vary between plant strains and with the season...perhaps a lot.
There are reasons that doctors don't give patients digitalis leaf to chew on anymore. It was way too variable a dosage. Bad things happened.
RE Harold McGhee saying its OK...I would hope that he has data to back it up.
RE Animals being different from people. Quite true. Lots of examples. But this family of poisons/drugs are quite active in people so the potential is there,

I'd say Costco for the soap and online for the rest of it.

So... anyone like modern art?
No. Too foamy-looking.

Ah yes. My bad.
