This does not appear to be available at Best Buy in Canada. It seems the head space is rather small - only 4". You cannot bake bread in it. I have asked if it takes a 1/4 sheet pan. When I get an answer, I'll update this post. I have the CSO and love it, and it did not cost me $400 US. For that price, I can buy 2 CSO's. What is interesting is that a second portable steam oven is coming on the market. Other manufacturers can't be far behind which will be s good thing. Edited to add: they did not answer my very simple question "will it fit a 1/4 sheet tray". Their response was to recommend using the trays that come with it. I wrote a second note asking them to address the actual question. I'll update the update when I get one.

@gfweb Those mashed potatoes with arugala look interesting. I wonder how that might work with baby spinach?

I made a 13" one the other day and the lid popped off after about 6 minutes in the oven. Makes quite a noise. That happened once before, when I first started making pullman loaves.

Does this recipe have a name?

I was pretty sure an eGullet member had mentioned them but I couldn't remember who. I just came in from buying the PC brand strawberries and they are delicious. Can't stop eating them. Not quite as good as the field grown ones in season but if they have these all the time in the off-season, I'll be a happy camper. They are my favourite fruit.

Those potatoes look good. I'll have to try that, maybe with a few sprigs of fresh thyme thrown in.

I'll check out the PC brand. It would seem strange that if both are grown in a greenhouse that they would taste differently. Different type of strawberry, maybe. I bought some grape tomatoes the other day called Sugar Bombs that are insanely delicious. Interestingly, they too come from Kingsville, Ont. But it clearly states USA grown. So, do they just pack them there?

I bought some the other day. The are very pretty and taste like.......nothing. I won't be buying them again.

https://www.steamahead.com.au This is, the ad claims, the first cookbook using a steam oven. If you click on it, you will see the table of contents.

Oooh....Are you doing a Japan blog? (She asked hopefully.)

Yes, thank you. I wondered if it was Kingsville because I have had other stuff from the greenhouses there.

Where are the greenhouses located? I'll look for them. Thank you.

Gee, I wonder where a lot of them end up?😃

And if the current government is to be believed, soon beer and wine will be available at your friendly corner store.

Aw, you're too kind. Don't know about stunning, but it probably would have looked better. I have some, too, but didn't think to use them.

Korean stewed chicken with spinach. Looks terrible. Tasted great.

Check previous post. It was edited.

I have a book "Cooking Light Global Kitchen. I'm curious to know if you would consider that a diet book. I really like some of the recipes in it, tonight I am making Korean Stewed Chicken with Spinach.

@Ann_T I checked today at a local store and they were not waxed.

A friend and I went to Table Sodam today. She had the Soy Dak Gang Jung, boneless chicken with sweet & soy sauce with corn cheese. It cane with pickled daikon. I had the Dak Gang Jung which consisted of boneless chicken with Spicy Sauce and an assortment of side dishes, which were, left to right, mushrooms, cucumber, kimchee, salad with nut flakes, soup and rice. Very yummy except I find kimchee to be too salty. John enjoyed the leftovers.

Like @Okanagancook, I too am Csnadian and tend to mentally translate swede=turnip. You rarely see rutabaga labelled as such around here - they are usually labelled and called turnip. That said, the white ones are also labelled and called turnip. Doesn't make sense, but that is the way it is, at least in these parts. I wonder if your kipflers are what we call fingerlings?

They produce a lot of fruit. There is one farmer from Niagara who comes to the Ottawa market in the fall with peaches, grapes, cherries, etc. I grew up in the Woodstock area and my mother did a lot of canning so every year we would do the Niagara tour and get whatever fruit she wanted for that purpose.

I love collards but I have only recently been introduced to them. Recipe?
