  1. No, and it is very unlikely that I will.

    serving Iberico ham

    I bought some of this and plan on serving it Thursday night. Most of the suggestions on this thread and what I have read elsewhere include bread, which I don't want to serve as I will be serving other stuff and the bread would be overkill in the amount of food served. Someone else suggested tomatoes. The only worthwhile tomatoes worth getting right now are Kumatos, both regular and cherry size. How does one serve this ham with tomatoes? Also, would cantelope work with this, assuming I can find it. Any other suggestions? A cracker of some sort? Wrapped around some cheese? I've never had this so hard no idea what it's like. Any suggestions are welcome.
  3. Had to look Hoosier cream pie up.
  4. @gfron1 Fascinating. Thank you.
  5. I have two sauciers, they are a 3 quart all-clad and a 2 quart Volrath. I love those pans and use them more than any other pan I have.
  6. Beautiful!
  7. I have the Demeyer stainless steel wok. I hate using it. Stuff sticks to it no matter how much I pre-heat it. It takes up a lot of room. I should sell it.

    Dinner 2018

    I got this the on the 18th. John got it a few days later. All social outings were either cancelled or re-scheduled. We managed to open our gifts Christmas Eve with a modicum of enthusiasm. We also managed to cook our Christmas capon, but ate none of it. I had just enough energy to cook up the bones and bits and pieces for stock (thank you Instant Pot). Yesterday we packed the capon up in dinner sized portions and stuck it in the freezer. Here we are on the 27th still without much of an appetite, a hacking cough (but getting better) and not a whole lot of energy, but more than we had at the start. Still sleeping 10 hours at night. Hope you feel better quicker than we are.

  12. Oh dear God that sounds good. Thank you!
  13. Welcome to eGullet.
  14. Whew! Tell us more about the caramel apple pound cake.
  15. @FauxPas Thank you. I can watch both of them.
  16. I get a page telling me that it will only be available in the U.S. Maybe the site is filtering me out because I am in Canada? The page I get has no menu, it's just a picture and the notice.
  17. I could not see a way to scroll through this.
  18. https://ottawacitizen.com/business/local-business/the-ottawa-inventor-behind-instant-pot-is-coming-for-the-rest-of-your-kitchen This article was in today's paper.
  19. That kitchen is going to be a thing of beauty!
  20. You people leave me breathless.
  21. Way to go! That's great.
  22. No, they are intended for short term usage, and kept refrigerated.
  23. I would like to make gift jars for family members of chocolate sauce and caramel sauce. I was unable to find anything in eGullettRecipes. Does anyway have a recipe they would care to share or can link me to one? I'd like recipes that people have made and are comfortable with. Many thanks.
  24. I was at a trade show over an Easter weekend once. The first day, no chairs were allowed. Near the end of that day, I saw someone selling fold up little chairs. I bought one for the second day. The first day damn near killed me.
