I think you are on the wrong forum.

Tonight we had Japanese pork curry over rice. I have never made this before and if fact, only heard about it recently. Never know there was such a thing. Given that I was in the privacy of my own home, I licked the plate clean. This was some good.

Bless you. That is one stressful job.

Make that two.

I have to ask - what do you do in your spare time when you are not creating these amazing dishes? They are amazing.

Sirloin tip roast sv'd at 132, browned in a cast iron skillet after getting a thin coating of the amazing browning powder from Okanagancook. I made a fresh batch of the powder by weight. Good thing, too, as the dextrose is much lighter than the baking soda. We had .mixed roasted vegetables and mashed sweet potatoes with this. Husband asked if I wanted Yorkies, and I said no. Sure wish I had said yes when we started to eat.

Just so. I had forgotten about the little buggers.

Anna N, if you would like to make a motion to that effect, i'll second it. Perhaps we could add lima beans to that list?

Last night we finished off the other half of the harissa rubbed chicken which we had with salad, carrots and duck roasted potatoes.

Anyone ever make donuts using the bread setting?

When we get down to southern Ontario in peach season I eat as many as I can get my hands on. We have a farmer's market that started 10 years ago and a fruit farmer from Beamsville comes up with peaches, cherries, plums, etc. The first year was fabulous, nice ripe peaches. Then he realized he could sell ones that looked ripe but weren't and could be transported with much less waste due to bruising, etc. And people would still buy them. And that was the last of the ripe, juicy, delicious peaches, and I no longer buy them. At least, not in this city.

Thanks to Terry who posted his method of making yogurt on the hippressurecooking forum, I made the best yogurt I have ever made. As you can see from the picture, the spoon stands right up. I drained exactly 6 ounces of whey from it but there really is no need to. I just happen to like it super thick. You use 1 1/4 cup NON instant dry milk powder which you mix thoroughly with 4 cups water. After this mixture has been heated and cooled to 115F, mix 1/3 cup greek yogurt with some of the milk and then pour it all back into the IP and proceed as normal. Incredible stuff. I may never again make it any other way.

I would give my eye teeth for a ripe peach. Even when the Ontario peaches are ripe, they never seem to make it to where I live. Grumble, grumble.

Tonight we had harissa rubbed roast chicken, fresh corn, detox salad (chopped broccoli, cauliflower, cranberries and some other stuff, purchased), quinoa and at 12 o'clock there is some Trader Joe's peach salsa.

Have two!

We had ribs done in the Instant Pot, fresh corn, and Caesar potato salad. For the potato salad, I did the potatoes in the IP à la Rotuts, for 7 minutes steam, high pressure, natural release for 10. When I first took them out I thought they looked "wet" (I usually cook them on the stove and after draining, "dry" them on the burner). However, once cool they were fine, excellent in fact.

We can buy little tubs of jalapeño cheese spread here, found in the grocery store where the cream cheese is. I think it is made by Black Diamond. Is that what they are referring to?

What is the 49 Amazonian limit?

Kayb, I don't bother with the paper towel, but I do cover the pan loosely with foil and that does the trick. Love cheesecake done in the IP.

This is a cupboard we had put in shortly after we moved into the place. I wanted a two section cupboard, one for spices up top and pull out drawers on the bottom. It matches the rest of the cupboards and i'm pretty happy with it. If I could change anything, it would be to have the bars in the upper cupboard replaced with plexi-glass.

What is luscious soy sauce as compared to soy sauce?

Best part of the chicken!

I share your pain.☺

Did you put the potatoes in something? I did some tonight, just cut up chunks HP for 5, NPR for 10 minutes. They were on a trivet, and I had put something underneath that to keep them out of the water. Does steam work better than HP?
