I have all the ingredients for this. I am making this as a side. Thanks @blue_dolphin ,

Count me in as a Jiffy person. I used to pick it up whenever we went south of the border as i couldn't find it here. Haven't done that now in a long while now, but I've put it on my list and will look for it next time I'm out.

SOLD!

Is there any reason to not chill the ice cream custard in the freezer? Assuming you give it the odd stir?

When possible, I make applesauce and freeze it in the portion sizes we use. We normally (pre-pandemic) have a family gathering in the fall and my SIL would bring me a batch of apples from their wild trees. They'd get chucked in the pot skins and all and after they are cooked, put through a food mill, catching the bad bits. Such wonderful applesauce! It is sweet but has no added sugar and a lovely rosy hue. Wonderful stuff.

But would that have an impact on the texture of the cookie?

Yum. I've never made them but I do like them. Will she part with her recipe?

I love peanut butter but don't love peanut butter cookies. The trouble with all the ones I have had is that they are so sweet they make my teeth ache. If anyone has a recipe for peanut butter cookies that are not overly sweet and would like to share their recipe, I'd happily make them.

I too am a Clamato fan, especially the spicy one. V8 not so much.

I just made some muffins and took the picture below. I use it for any loose batter/dough (e.g. pancakes, yorkshire pudding) as it makes really short work of mixing. It works really well on wet bread doughs such as foccacia and no-knead dough.

Yes indeed. I think every kitchen should have one.

They're great, aren't they? My current one has a wooden handle also but the wood has split. I just ordered an all-metal one.

If you don't have one, you need one of these. https://www.amazon.com/Jillmo-Danish-Dough-Whisk-Stainless/dp/B083532915/ref=sxin_7_ac_d_mf_rf?ac_md=5-2-U2lsdmVy-ac_d_rf&crid=9URWROJUQGUV&cv_ct_cx=danish+dough+whisk&dchild=1&keywords=danish+dough+whisk&pd_rd_i=B083532915&pd_rd_r=a3112516-069a-4263-a22b-91a860855d9c&pd_rd_w=OcUM5&pd_rd_wg=gX3bU&pf_rd_p=89fa575a-c44e-401e-be03-82c92ec5e029&pf_rd_r=XVBMZ184BM1P5P9WQFN5&psc=1&qid=1620231241&sprefix=Danish+%2Caps%2C203&sr=1-3-89f8c401-73d8-4caf-b340-e9b34f2a8bae

A cousin of mine and his wife came for a visit a few years ago from Holland. They couldn't believe the size of the meat portions they were served in restaurants. It was way more than they were used to.

That's the one we had when we had the house. You'll love it.

Thanks. My peel skills suck too.

Do you bake it on what looks like a pizza stone?

Her mango ice cream was really good. I couldn't find her recommended brand but the one I did use had a 5% sugar content so not tooth-achingly sweet.

Ordered today.

I have had a Thermomix for a number of years and I hardly ever use it. I will occasionally use it to make one particular dish, a risotto, but I have found the Instant Pot does a great job of that. I just registered on the Cookidoo site and maybe having a good look at that will inspire me to use the machine more. Thanks, @EatingBen, for your post. It may have given me the nudge I needed.

Who is Todd?

Did you check the water temperature?

All this is very impressive.

John was forever "misplacing" his glasses so I bought this: https://www.hammacher.com/product/lost-glasses-locator

Love the fact that Marco Polo is in that shot! He stays close? Like @Kim Shook i always thought I'd like for us to buy an RV and travel around. John wasn't so sure. So we rented a trailer in an RV resort (if that's the right term) for a week to try it out. We arrived on a Saturday and left before the week was up. The final straw for him was when he had to sidle into the (half) bathroom sideways to shave. He is tall, so also kept banging his head on stuff. 'Nuff said.
