I haven't but since it has been moved to the top of the second fridge in the office, I don't use it as much. I don't put it in the dishwasher, I wash it by hand.

@Kim Shook did @Shelby post the recipe anywhere? I'd like to try it. Did you make the dough in your bread machine?

I can easily take mine out. The only time I struggle with the paddles is after I have taken a freshly baked loaf out of the pan. After letting the pan cool, that is. Now I just soak the pan for a bit and the paddles come right out.

Hi Rob and welcome to the forum.

I did forget and I have added it. Did you contact the Zo people about your frozen paddles? Did you soak your pot for a while and then try to remove the paddles? As far as tge yeast goes, I used 1 1/2 tsp. which is what the recipe called for.

@TdeV I have the same bread machine as you. I put the ingredients for bread in the pan last night and set the timer for this morning. As you can see the loaf is uneven which has happened before. But, this is the first time i have had these "wrinkles" on the top. Underneath the wrinkles are hollow spots. I wrote to KAF and they responded with the note I posted in an earlier post on this thread. I made sure my paddles were in the correct position so I don't know why this happened. Not much help, I know.

Help! I've lost my cooking mojo and I want it back!
ElsieD replied to a topic in Food Traditions & Culture
@BeeZee Thank you so much for the link to that newsletter. It describes how I feel better than I ever could. Lots of good advice on there. Thanks to all of you who have chimed in so far. I'm going to think about the advice offered and try out some of the suggestions. Also, it sure helps to know I'm not alone. -

I don't know. That's what I am trying to figure out. -
The title just about says it all. I haven't been feeling like cooking lately. At all. In fact, I don't even want to set foot in the kitchen. Where once I could spend whole days in there, now I don't even want to think about it. I don't know why that is, but it bothers me. My husband says it is because of the pandemic and that once things open up again, it'll be all right and I'll be back to my old self. Just so you know, I am not depressed, I'm still a happy person. Anyone else experiencing the same feeling?

Yup. I bought the Forkish book in 2017. 😳

What a fabulous chart. A lot of work must have gone into it and I for one, appreciate your effort.

@Kim Shook I wrote to King Arthur Flour about our (sometimes) uneven loaves and this is their reply: Hi Elsie, Thanks for contacting us here at King Arthur Baking Company. We've asked Zojirushi about the sloped loaves that sometimes occur and they say it's a normal outcome for the machines. You can even see some of the loaves in photos in the manual have a slope to them as well. To help keep the loaves more even, try placing both of the blades in the machine facing in the same direction. They can both point left or right, that doesn't matter, but try to have them both face the same way. This makes for nice even kneading of your dough. Please let us know if we can answer any additional questions or assist you further. Kind regards, MaryJane Baker's Support Specialist II (800) 827-6836 customercare@kingarthurbaking.com

Hi Carol and welcome to this forum.

I don't have the books anymore either. I did some googling and it returned with "everywhere" some "nowhere" and there was also an "anywhere".

I always thought it was "400 miles north of nowhere". Loved those books.

I don't like bananas in anything. I do enjoy the occassional whole fruit as well as a banana split in half and fried in brown sugar and butter. Those I REALLY like. -
Thank you. (I think)

Yes, that's why we got one with 3 fan speeds. It is only ever on high when, say, i am searing a steak, and that only lasts for a few minutes. The rest of the time we find speed #1 does the job.

We have recently purchased a new range hood and it is made by Broan. We too live in an apartment but our hood does vent to outside. We like it very much; it has 3 fan speeds and three light settings. One thing i discovered after i installed it was that it sticks out more into the kitchen than the one that was there. The part that sticks out is my height and every now and again I whack my head on it. You may want to keep that in mind.

I'm assuming that the cream is the 40% MF variety?
