  1. Here's the Miele home version: Miele Pasta cooker
  2. Same here. Ooh! Maybe a "greens and veggies" bouquet to go with it?
  3. I was just at the grocery store, Vons (Safeway/Albertsons) and saw this while browsing the meat department. It actually made me laugh out loud. Woman near me looked at me like I was "special" until I lifted the article of my amusement, got an OMG from her.
  4. The melamine condiment cup saved you from ultimate depravity. Gives a whiff of respectability to your meal.
  5. I worked in housewares at Macy's, we had lots of returns on Cuisinart blenders.
  6. Not a single food processor recipe. Well, one, for their blender FP combo, but those blades aren't recalled.
  7. Submitted my claims (custom 14 and pro custom 11) December 13. Received the blade for the custom 14 today. Unpacked without incident .
  8. Tuna press. Open can, leave lid in place, insert in press and squeeze.
  9. Not in my world!
  10. How'd you brown the cauliflower steak? It's so beautiful and even! Gorgeous!
  11. Oooh! My Preciousss.... Shiny,and All Clad! Only $7!! Soooo jealous! Enjoy! (and you now MUST have fondue for Christmas.)
  12. Armchair chef. All the fun, no mess!
  13. Ditto on Shelby's sad cry... But, I saw the frost on your car. None for me thank you. I hope the first aid kit is going just inside the door of your secured culinary bunker so either of you can get "Two cocktails.STAT!!". I seldom say anything, but really enjoy the Manitoulin visits. Always there in spirit and feel a bit empty when they're over. That "end of vacation" feeling, though I'm sitting at home.
  14. "They are in the dishwasher now - sadly it seems to have gone tits up again - totally full of dirty dishes!" Sorry about the dishwasher, especially with the amount of cooking you both do, but thank you for the "gone tits up again". Glad I hadn't just taken a drink of my morning tea, would've made an awful mess of my laptop! Love, love,love, your adventures in Manitoulin, the two of you doing these amazing things, under far less than ideal conditions. Always waiting for the next one.

    Potato mystery

    Maybe THIS from the Idaho Potato Commission might help. It does discuss potatoes that don't soften.
  16. Happy belated birthday!! It's beauteous, great Birthday find and it's a nice size and shape. And amethyst!!
  17. I've had this one from IKEA for 3 years now, sturdy enough and a nice size.
  18. Macys will still exchange it for you. If the associate you speak to doesn't know about it, ask for a manager.
  19. What?? it's been a week already??? Thanks for the glimpse into your world,it's been fun, far too short though.... Edited for spelling
  20. Recipe for those unbelievably gorgeous popovers ? Please? You're making me need a popover pan now!
  21. The old Hobart lift bowls don't have an adjusting screw. According to the service manual, pg 25, you tap with a mallet to adjust clearance.
  22. Since no one else has asked. What happened? Did you get a 2 liter Coke shower? Or, was it more painful?
  23. Vitamix claims to have made the first infomercial in 1949, https://www.vitamix.com/Corporate-Information/About-Us, and Blendtec is certainly an infomercial product. Love my Vitamix. On the other side is the Easy Cracker https://www.ezcracker.com/ fun infomercial, but a definite learning curve on the device... ETA: easy cracker
  24. Same "J" every time? Also, is "J" for jelly or jam?
  25. You and Kerry the "Bad Girls" of eGullet. I'm sure they have visions of the two of you in your kitchen, cooking up things other than food.
