    nice optical illusion. looked back at the original pic and the ravioli now look ' plump ' rather than concave.

    @Dave R your ravioli look very interestying and also quite tasty in the second picture , they look like small pastries waiting for their filling. are they the bottom 1/2 of the top flat pasta ? looking forward to your further contributions !
  4. @Katie Meadow interesting how tastes differ . my local has not had the taiwanese for some time ( exactly then I got interested via eG ! ) but the Korean are indeed ' not thin ' , and not just Gummy , but also Greasy at the same time ! best ' junk ' fastfood Ive had in a while. ad its right there in my freezer !
  5. I use Brita'd water I do get algae in the tank , as the tank gets afternoon sun. I clean it w a brush as best I can , then swish in some diluted warm bleach , let the container sit for a bit then rinse throughly Im careful not to get bleach on the screw on regulator just in case it affects the rubber gasket. I do not empty the tank. if I remember to cover the reservoir w a towel to avoid the sun , I don't get algae.

    Dinner 2022

    @Duvel Ive been keen on figuring out for me , " Collar " I do get the idea that its more or less the animals ' strap ' muscles and the various muscles that connect the head to the body : Ive never seen it here so , as you passively on very good terms w your various butchers , and theirs shops : Id love a pic of a whole collar , if at all possible and by your eye , do the components in the collar change relatively , cut by cut ? I can see that if this was locally available , at a respected Meat Dept ( ie , one particular S&Shop, had friendly , and knowledgeable staff. Id have been all over it simply Id bet , w various cooking methods based on the fat content and ' flavor-full ' muscles ie those that have worked for a living .. many thanks p.s. : I reviewed " Asterix ++ Cleopatra "" and found it excellent for those of us that are found of ' nuance ' and for sure , the FR have got this down pat .

  15. @Smithy very nice thanks for the pics of the meat counter ! I have not been to a meat count like that in a while. here ( pre-covid ) I wasn't interested in finddleing around in Cambridge there was a fine one in Palo Alto where I frequented whenever I visited my father. if you are going to have a '' treat " ,, make it a good one !

    Breakfast 2022

    @Ann_T my kind of breakfast
  17. SM has lot of green coffee : in interesting video here ; https://sweetmarias.us15.list-manage.com/track/click?u=ece32b8792ad4351762abfe02&id=9eeaef0861&e=b5e956a174
  18. no point in resisting a CSO . none what so ever
  19. you better believe it " Combi-Steam is a way to go. Toast it has its own way to go for the "" Toasties ""
  20. well worth it for Experience Users
  21. @weinoo others have spares . @ 170 USD , etc etc spares became a bit ( help needed here ) Che-Che or SHee-Shee ) sp ? ) Im not that sure its possible @Shelby has a stash . I think others here might forward thinking Cognoscenti might have a few the vast Lurkers here probably cornered and controlled the Market.
  22. I though of Vac'ing them then decided it was too much work . these veg are not several years old , which is also helpful 3 - 4 months ?
  23. if you see a new CSO listed anywhere just buy it toot sweet ! well worth it at almost any price. unfortunately , I ' don't remember ' where my two spares are. That my story and Im sticking to it . each purchased for <<< 170 USD on sale , w free shipping and no tax. just saying .
  24. sometime my frozen veg resting comfortably in the freezer de-hydrate over time. one can tell if there is frost in the bag I refresh them in cold water from frozen and this seems to be quite helpful : right out of the freezer ( MarketBasket Fz mixed veg ) note there are quite a few Floaters 10 minutes later . of note I change the cold water to make sure all items thaw note Green Beans take longer than the rest . only one GB ( 10 O'Clock ) hasn't gotten the message . Im posting this because this is my new technique : using the medium Oxo Salad spinner ! one just lifts out the insert rather than pour into a stainer . Ive been doing this the the clumsy way for years ! and Ive had spinners for ever . also of note : I now use my iPhone 12 Pro rather than my Sony SLR. iPhone works quite well however , the image got blurry changing from the first lens to the second . First time this happened Im not saying I had a bit of angina from this problem , but ..... I tried cleaning the lens , but no-go I called AAPL : and learned that if this happens one taps the glass ( clean fingers of course ) and it focuses . I used to be Tech-y , not so much theses days AAPL is certainly a fine company w outstanding products ! ( F.D.: I do not work for AAPL , but have had their computers since the beginning of Modern Time. I do have a few shares , not too many : well worth it Id say .

    Rice Cookers

    the solution to this problem : make more rice . then take the surplus , and add Mix-Ins . use some neutral oil refrigerate . eat the next day as a nice snack. even good cold. " Not Fried Rice " I do this on purpose !
