Where does the water go and how much goes into the machine?

I see the oven is deeply discounted at the moment.

My SIL and BIL hosted an Easter brunch for 9 people. I was asked to make Greek yogurt which I did. I also made 4 batches of ginger pumpkin muffins, I batch per family. The brunch was today. John went but I couldn't go because I was under the weather. Sad.

I have some HO . YA soy sauce. Best before date is July 19, 2024.

My replacement oven is going back to Anova today and they are sending me a new one. So this will be oven #3.

Thanks. I'll just freeze my tubs, measure out what I need, add hot water to it and let it sit until it dissolves. Problem solved.

Well, duh! You are right about freezer space. But I was also thinking that maybe with some liquid already added, it would be easier incorporate it into what I was making because it wouldn't be, for lack of a better word, as "blobby" hence requiring less whisking time. I used some the other day and found it took a while before the MTG totally dissolved.

Is it possible to dilute the 16 oz. tubs say 1 part demi-glace to 1 part water and freeze that in ice cube trays? @fledflew said uptrend he used a ratio of 1:4 but to save room I wonder if 1:1 or 1:2 might work.

What or who is WHPS?

Do you happen to know if one freezes the undiluted semi-glace in ice cube trays, how hard it is to get them out?

Thank you. Fixed it.

I assume that since they are quasi-gels, they would be scoopable. Am I wrong?

My 1 pound tubs are good until September through December of 2025. I'll keep them in a cupboard until I have room for them in the freezer. The little guys are good until later this year but I've already put most of them in the freezer. @blue_dolphin is right - these will last me a very long time.

My little stash. Finally got it yesterday.

What makes this bay leaf so good? I ask because I have 2 bay leaves left and need to buy more. How do the prices of the bay leaves and oregano compare to the standard run-of-the-mill varieties?

Thank you! I always enjoy your posts.

Did you get a tracking number?

@RWood. Beautiful! How long does it take to decorate a cake like that?

Mine arrived in Ontario on Wednesday, the original delivery date. That day, I got a notice that it is being held up in customs. As of this morning, it's still there.

More than Gourmet's website now simply states that they are closed. Thanks again, @rotuts, for the heads up.

I have cooked a number of beef cheeks but always sous vide which I know doesn't help you. But, I just wanted to echo @FeChef and say say that they are indeed very rich and gelatinous.

That happened to me too with Roasted Turkey Demi-Glace. If you bought 12, the discount was 20%. Less than that, the discount was 10%. They refunded the difference promptly. My order is arriving tomorrow!

The same product, but a 1.5 oz. package costs $29.99 Cdn. on Amazon.ca.

Amazon.ca has it but the prices are high. Very high.
