I bought it at T & T, the Asian grocery. They had several different brands but I picked this one because it was mentioned here. It comes in a regular version and a hot and spicy one. I have the regular one. Maybe @johnnyd could chime in and tell us how spicy the hot and spicy one is?

The other day I picked up a bottle of Jufran Banana Sauce mentioned upthread. It so happened that we were having mac 'n cheese for supper and as I usually eat it with a side of ketchup I tried this instead. I doubt I will ever buy ketchup again.

This is really interesting. My sister mixes Lipton's onion soup in her rice before cooking it. Maybe we need to start a new topic along the lines of "Cooking with Lipton's onion soup".

So, no liquids? Just the roast rubbed with the dry soup mix?

Tell me more about the pork roast and the Lipton's onion soup mix.

I called Cuisinart Canada. Cuisinart CANADA is still making them for the Canadian market. To find out if they are still making them for the American market, you need to contact Cuisinart US. Cuisinart Canada said they did not know what was happening there. Not much info for 50 minutes on hold.

I haven't heard back from them either.

Yikes!

I finally made the jalapeno poppers yesterday. I cooked up 6 pieces of bacon after which they were chopped and mixed in with the cheese. The cheese was a bit of an odd assortment - cream cheese, old cheddar and some Garlic and Fine Herbs Boursin. I toasted panko crumbs in a bit of bacon fat and topped the poppers. Baked @350F for about 20 minutes. Tasty little devils. I have some of the cheese stuffing left and I think I'll mixed some dried jalapeno bits with it, spread it on a toasted English muffin and broil it until the cheese melts.

I read this in one of our newspapers. He is a fellow Canadian.

I just wrote to Cuisinart and asked if the CSO has been discontinued. Will post their reply.

Comes in at a good price for you Americans paying in US dollars.

Still available at Amazon.ca for $194.98.

@Anna N (and @Kerry Beal) everything looks wonderful. I take it the cheese has been aged 30 months? I imagine the balsamic in the small bottle with the white cap must be pretty special stuff. I'm sure you will enjoy consuming everything as much as Kerry delighted in getting it for you

Hello Simon and welcome to the forum.

@andiesenji I'm starting to think you must have a museum or a display centre of some sort. Just when I think you can't possible surprise me anymore, you do. Thank you for sharing them.

@Smithy Smoked turkey tails? I need to get out more. @kayb I had a look at that recipe. Looks good. I need to cook mine up.

BTB beef nutritional label:

I have used More Than Gourmet and Savory Choice products. I really liked Savory Choice but I cannot order it directly anymore and the one store that I know that carries it here charges more than I want to pay. Then I switched to More Than Gourmet and I was very happy with those but I can't order direct from them anymore either and I don't know of a store that carries them here. @blue_dolphin The mushroom one is very good. So now I have to rely on store bought ones and I use Better Than Bouillon, both the chicken and the beef. I also save chicken bones and when I have enough, I'll make a stock, just the bones and water. This then gets reduced as much as possible and I portion it out into ice cube trays. The jellied blobs I then keep in the freezer.

I haven't made them yet but will post when I do.

I do it at 140 for 3 hours.

I just had a thought. I think I'll brown the panko in some bacon grease.

Yeah, I've been googling recipes too. I also now have a dozen or so jalapenos in the fridge. I like the idea of topping them with panko crumbs, toasted, I think. Then, I wonder about cooking up some bacon while they are baking and sprinkle some bacon bits over the finished product rather than fiddling with bacon slices.

Thank you Kerry. I really, really, wanted to dive into those pastries. All of them.
