better yet go to the BigBox store buy the largest box of ( this part is up to you ) set up a table in the parking lot ( the shady spot ) and measure out $ 0.50 worth and sell it for $ 1.00 . file Franchise Papers @ noon by the end of the day a SPAC ( blank check firm ) will buy you out as you laugh all the way to The Bank

i used to look forward to TJ's samples one person making them , and handing them out in little paper cups . got to try a number of things that way and added a few to my shopping list,

@Norm Matthews that does look cool. interesting video father down on Amazon's page I hope it works well for $ 10 , I have my doubts. looking forward to your review.

their instruction book covers Basmati and for ' Rice ' they give ideas for a bit of leeway based on grain. I bet every thing they say in the instruction book would turn out deliciously w their measurement . they you can experiment in small ways w the water. but I get your point : the Fuzzy takes over near the end to give you really excellent rice.

@Shelby I understand you completely. you want that intense perfectly ripe flavor and aroma into something deliciously creamy but complementary I bet its gong to be good. but I can't help you w Cream , stabilizers etc. Id save a few of those Perfectas do exactly as you have done and add 1 - 2 T ( not enough to de-stablablize the result ) of complementary flavor : Gran Marinier ? Tia Maria ? Chreme du Menthe ? * maybe 1 T of CbM , it potent ) you are looking for flavor not booze. your favorite liquuor ? not too much

a big P.S.: the Original SV red notebook long thought lost , possibly recycled did return , at the bottom of a pile etc. I didn't date it but an early S&S receipt is early 2012. it was easier to add that rather than write about it. it was ref's for sirloin tips , on sale but cut and trimmed as flap meat. remember it well.

just not a green one . that's not ' Today's Green ' its Back then Green , lt was just leftover pigment , no one else wanted.

@JoNorvelleWalker good question. I gave the basket w the rinsed rice a good tap at the side of the sink then a shake and all went ini the pot. I eye balled the water a bit but not in terms of the rice waiting for a Cook. a little dryer // wetter I poured out a bit of water or not. good rice for me.

@heidih a very long time ago we went to ChuckWagon restaurant near by . a single operation I think , late '50's is was an all-you-can-eat sort of place unique at that time The food was top notch stuff . they had prime ribs ( real Prime those days ) every day then the second main dish varied : roast turkey , bake Ham etc. they had huge partitioned plates , you pick one up , and when though the service line and staff added what you wanted to the plate at the end was a carving station , for the two featured meats. the plates had brands as decoration on them , and it was a Chuck Wagon theme. it had table cloths . My father always had Prime Rib , end cut(s) and they took his plate back and returned w the bones in a foil lined bag, frequently there were added bones in that bag, if requested Cats and a Heintz 57 dog ( Earthquake, a rescue ) had the time of their lives for a few days. the restaurant lasted quite a few years . I wish I had gotten a plate or two for Posterity . I had Milk , and they brought the glass to the table ! , along with refills we went there for our birthdays. I went for the Turkey my sister, the Baked Ham.

what's important Rice Cooker , Fuzzy or not its the ratio of Race to Water. that's it . the Japanese Cup works w the Japanese markings around the Japanese bowl making it easier to get to the important part : pushing the On button. I used my USA cup , and measure my water in a USA Pyrex container . either way works fine once you realize its the ratio that's important.

SV'd cooking is improved keeping track in a Red engineering lined book. you can easily look back and make changes on you next cook. SV is very forgiving re : exact times in the bath
-
@Midlife I think of time, w SV'd , as tenderness . and temp as doneness . but they both work together to create tenderness. to get the same tenderness , for the same sort of meat it takes longer @ 130 F , than @ 140 F

did you get lumps before you added the lemon juice ?

@JoNorvelleWalker its true : rice cookers can get gunky when cooking steel cut oats . it will help if less , by volume , is cooked each time . I my 10 cup , and it has more overhead for the oat ' burps '

some places that sell scallions as noted , the price of food have different prices for the floor we enjoy waking around in [ Ed : Barf aside , small and large ]: A Millonzzes @ square-foot ( SqFt for now ) a Billonzzes @ SqFt a Trillionzzes @ SqFt. this pressures the price of scallions .

well, a I said ? just incase there was a flash Seasonally, due t the Heat Induced ? I very much look forward what's On the plate Your Place and the many things End Up With good for you ! youth this about it some don't.

@weinoo im with @Anna N on this : the basis is correct : the flavor of this breed : "" tasting that crisped fat "" "" basting with pan juices "" remember , this chop is not from Big Pork.

Here its Indian . however , Im sure there are Hispanic markets in many places The large Chinese market I sued to go on Sunday AM ( parking ) had similar lower prices fro fresh produce and a lot of Chinese fresh produce that's just normal given a population density

@weinoo SV'd will get you to your ' doneness ' point effortlessly . then the outer delicious-to-be ' Shell ' is up to you . then you go back and adjust the temp off the SV bath and chilling or not after the bath will get you exactly what you want . that's my view put your attention into the surface as you might like it om your plate .

Scallions are keeping that Quiet . re: ethnic markets : back in the day I frequented an Indian market on Waltham . Sunday morning only , when they opened. it was easy to park. the fresh produce there was as fresh as the other large , conventional grocery stores I visited. . came out of large boxes , similar to boxes in all those places bur off somewhat smaller truck. it was always less expensive . cilantro ? maybe not as popular at the larger grocery stores , thus affection those prices ? but everything fresh was less expensive, their assortment was , well , ethnic they didn't carry WonderBread but their Patak jared pastes were very reasonable and they had a decent selection

@Kim Shook you find the very best places to eat. congratulations. Ive never has a fresh spring roll w so many plump shrimp. ive neve had baked spaghetti , the one picture is the one id like to try.
-
in my area , MB consistently may have lower prices. bunches of scallions there seem to be of s9milar size through out the year some times they are skinny , some times a bit more mature. the prices change based on the season winter they are more expensive. maybe they will crack $ 2.oo soon.

Your Preference: Smaller Portions or Higher Menu Prices?
rotuts replied to a topic in Restaurant Life
I think the Mayo goal is to keep the price under a certain amount. Mayo < $ 4.99 is one thing to gasp at Mayo > $ 5.00 is mush worse so the bean counter think. -
@Anna N Im always very pleased to see what the Lunch Ladies are up to WoW its right there ! in this Episode I can hear the light crunch of all that you have
