I have in the past read that a lot of the fish you buy (especially frozen) is mislabeled so what you think you are getting is not what you are actually getting. Can you give us any insight as to why that happens and how we can ensure that we are getting what we pay for?

Green onions look like baby leeks in that the bottoms are white and the tops are green, however, they usually come to a bit more of a bulb at the bottom. They are often referred to as scallions.

Genius! Thank you.

I just ordered some more of their chicken, reduced sodium chicken, turkey and beef broths. I have been using them for four years and really like them. I buy the packages that have 12 sticks per package. I particularly like the reduced chicken stock one for sauces. I wish they had a reduced sodium beef one.

I would like to make the Ultrafrothy Milk Shake on page 89. The recipe states to "To avoid any unpleasant flavor, use only high-quality, DEODERIZED whey protein isolate" . I have never heard of deoderized whey protein isolate, but I can say that I have had some which left an unpleasant aftertaste which is what I'm guessing they are referring to here. Does anyone know of a brand name that I could look for? Or do I just go to my local health food store and ask for this product? And if I do, will the product state that it has been deoderized (whatever that means)?

Oh, Lordy, that shrimp dish looks good! We'll have to try Lemongrass out when we are next in that neck of the woods.

Jo, thanks for posting the recipe. I assume that it does not usually come out dry?

Dividend, make that two of us who would like the pork shoudler recipe.

Never having heard of munavalgekook, (except that, with my Dutch heritage I was pretty sure kook was cake, as it sounds the same as the Dutch word koek) I did a Google search. It looks like something I would like. Did you completely sub the almond flour for the flour called for in the recipe? Did you use any citrus?

If I could only have one or the other I would choose tea. However, I do like a good cup of coffee every now and again.

Is that 2 1/2 pounds for the entire breast or for each half?

I made it and found it to be very sweet as well, almost cloying so. I am going to try it again leaving the cores in as I think that should make it not so sweet.

I see that this cookbook continues to trend high on Amazon Canada. Does anyone have it? Is it any good?

First thing in the morning.

It would also help to know where you are located.

What station is broadcasting season 13?

Twyst, thank you.

Twyst, do you have a smoking gun or is your comment more applicable to smoke alarms in general? Ours are very sensitive and monitored by a secunity company.

I got The Smoking Gun for Christmas and I am not sure whether or not to keep it. I have been watching YouTube videos and whatever else I could find and am concerned about the amount of smoke it produces. I do not have an exhaust fan, so are my smoke alarms likely to go off every time I use it? I could use it outside but I live in Canada and that would be impossible in the winter. Thanks for any advice you can give me.

What is the texture of the potatoes like after they have been frozen?

Jar level sounds fine -- enough headspace. Did you let the pressure come down naturally after cooking? Quick release will often lead to a mess inside the pressure cooker as the jar contents maintain their pressure and will boil violently in the lower pressure environment of a rapidly cooling pressure cooker. I let the pressure come down naturally.
