    @Shelby indeed juice running down the arm is is a major feature of Ripe I grew up in CA the peaches I picked from our yard and ate on the spot , did sometimes ru down the arm !
  5. thanks again. as I thought : the pics ( @ amazon and elsewhere ) and on the vids of ' full baskets '
  6. @Anna N thanks. that's what I wanted to know. I assume you have the larger 6 qt ( 5.7 ) Im wondering if the space savings and wt might make the 3.7 qt more attreraqctive for occasional use ; Tots , Fryes ( Fz and from scratch ) chicken wings.
  7. Currently @ Amazon the https://www.amazon.com/COSORI-Electric-Reminder-Touchscreen-Certified/dp/B07GJBBGHG/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=air+fryer&qid=1628876213&sr=8-5 is $ 120. ist 5.8 qts there is a newer ( ? ) model : https://www.amazon.com/COSORI-1700-Watt-Cookbook-One-Touchscreen-Customizable-dp-B085W3GN5J/dp/B085W3GN5J/ref=dp_ob_title_kitchen and its 20 USD cheaper the instaPot : https://www.amazon.com/Instant-Vortex-Plus-Air-Fryer/dp/B07VHFMZHJ/ref=sxin_14?asc_contentid=amzn1.osa.4bdba462-0e0f-4a9e-af62-42925fb0a817.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&asc_contenttype=article&ascsubtag=amzn1.osa.4bdba462-0e0f-4a9e-af62-42925fb0a817.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&creativeASIN=B07VHFMZHJ&cv_ct_cx=air+fryer&cv_ct_id=amzn1.osa.4bdba462-0e0f-4a9e-af62-42925fb0a817.ATVPDKIKX0DER.en_US&cv_ct_pg=search&cv_ct_we=asin&cv_ct_wn=osp-single-source-earns-comm&dchild=1&keywords=air+fryer&linkCode=oas&pd_rd_i=B07VHFMZHJ&pd_rd_r=e8615f5d-53f2-46cb-b841-203dd67ed90c&pd_rd_w=6xkGD&pd_rd_wg=PqZ7U&pf_rd_p=8065c57d-81c6-4bce-844a-e686936787b8&pf_rd_r=GQR1F54EHA1ZZHMQ1RAD&qid=1628876213&sr=1-1-64f3a41a-73ca-403a-923c-8152c45485fe&tag=atkamznsearch-20 wow , thank god for Copy & Paste they look almost identical. Ideas pro and con ? there seems to be a 3.7 qt Cosri , but its hard to find. and I hace a question : Ive seen videos for both via Amazon. when you air fry , are the items to be fried above the bottom of the pan ie that's what the did is for ?
  8. I buy unsalted; its easy to add my own salt or not. I used to get supermarket brands now I get ' premium ' bands Land o lakes , Challenge when on sale , and vac and freeze. open the vac bag , take out one stick reseal the same bag , back into the freezer. unsalted. some time ago I I got KerryGold , etc but I dont taste a big diff. and KG etc is over priced.

    @Kim Shook ML-S ? you are going tp love it any way you like a sandwich
  10. Vermont Creamery has some outstanding Brie // Camembert // styles cheeses I had them for a long time and , if you select the oldest in the cheese case , and bring them along at room temp they are as good or better than any FR similar style @ the ' very good ' level ( FR ) I hope to get to Tj's as soon as it cools off. pls consider airing this cheese ( the St. Albans ) if you like that sort of thing
  11. @Maison Rustique call them ! Ive done this in the past for ' limited ' cheese issues like cheese of the month. they gave me an idea how many they had and if limited , they put aside a few for me to pick up in a few days.
  12. CSO helped again : CSO'd Daves , as mentioned above. bread is at least 10 - 11 days old , and kept in the coldest part of the refrigerator. CSO # 6 toast directly from the refrigerator. left too cool. light brown toasting , some crunch not too much the TurkeyMeatLoaf an award winning Rx of mine I have not made in some time one pack of ShadyBrookFarms ground turkey . 20 oz. I went w two eggs , and added larger amounts of TJ's Fr dijon , Bell's seasoning ( kept Fz and VacPacked ) RedBoat40 , Wrights Hicory lq smoke. the ' panade ' was rolled oats finely ground in a blade coffee grinder Planned to use most of the loafs of sandwiches , room temp so upped the ' flavorings ' I added quite a bit more ground oats than what I rfemember as the ' mass ' was wet. still it was fairly wet when it went into the Pyrex ( original ) pan , w ' ClearAdvantage ' coating ( wait for it ) I started cooking @ 325 steam , as I wanted a lower temp cooking. cranked the CSO up to 375 ( steam ) to get some color on the tiop : it still had some hints of ' pink ' and was very smooth and very tender , so more like Pate , the kind that approaches spreadability. it was outstanding. no bacon or bacon fat ( artisanal ) was added. to make it an easier prep so much tastier than deli ham etc. as you've been waiting patiently : the pan had some dried ' fond ' on the bottom usually , w bacon I bake at a higher temp and get bacon fat and fond mixed together and use it for gravy made at the3 same time it had been so long since I made a TML I was horrified at this potential loss of flavor. I let the glass pan cool and use a nylon spatula w a sharp edge to it and all the fond scraped right up. some was very dark , but not burnt. that ' ClearAdvantage ' really works. it in the refrig in a small pyrex prep bowl for gravy add ins ( maybe after it cools off ) TML baked inside even w the CSO is interesting when then temp inside is low 80's , and outside its 90 F and v very humid In The Day , I used to take the CSO outside during Heat and use it that way. Same for the iPot. P.S.: the TML=> Pate was tender and moist I lucked out !

    Lunch 2021

    late lunch yesterday : Dave's CSO'd from the refrigerator left to cool . lettuce , tomato ( OK supermarket --after Home Aging ) and TurkeyMeatLoaf a specialty of mine. this version was more of the Pate version than the AmericanMeatLoaf version delicious . more details here : https://forums.egullet.org/topic/153705-cuisinart-combo-steamconvection-oven-part-3/page/99/?tab=comments#comment-2309462

    Lunch 2021

    a trick I learned quite some time ago : when layering up your sandwich ; remember you might be planning to cut it in 1/2 (?) before inhaling it. even the finest knife , property maintained can 'squish ' the sandwich while cutting through the top slice of bread. solution : cut the top slice before you place it on top. wish I'd thought of this ]but no. it was in Cook's Illustrated a long time ago in the readers ' tips ' section try it. works fine re : squishing issues.

    Lunch 2021

    that bread that makes the simple FR ham sandwich so spectacular is very hard to find unless you bake your own. a sandwich is very much about the bread get the bread right and you are more that 1/2 way there . Dave's bread , toasted or not makes a better sandwich for me than other supermarket bread w the very same fillings.
  16. I thought Id post this here Ive been getting Dave's bread for a few weeks. I like it as a ' fresh ' sandwich bread and mostly toasted to different levels but Dave's isn't used up some times fast enough : so : into the refrigerator it goes . no more ' fresh ' sandwiches but it makes mighty fine toast right out of the refrigerator and at lower settings , ' decent sliced bread ' CSO scores again.
  17. @shain "" Sea urchin, --- . Like butter that was dropped into ocean. exactly so The Deep Sea not the sea shore.
  18. thanks. looking forward to it. please be careful

    Dinner 2021

    @Objective Foodie nice I hope that's a really really large plate.
  21. I use the iPot for pressure cooking . both ' in the pot ' ie ragu or pressure streaming , above water or for stock.
  22. I do this for making further stock. start w Fz add new bones etc if there were any ' heat issues ' ive had w the iPot is ' Saute ' heat is very uneven , and you might get scorching if you do not stir often so , for me , I don't use saute if you ' sautéed ' Fz stock to defrost it ....... ?????
  23. @FauxPas and a Morris to boot ! nice
  24. you have delivery options w every carrier : signature only leave at door / in the back etc for neighborhoods that are considered safe enough . Ive never lost a package \sometimes the packages is delivered to another address by mistqke I call UPS the driver picks up the package and re-delivers. there are not that many single family homes these days where someone is home if hand delivery nw signature was a requirement Amazon et.al. would go out of buisiness and your ' card-board futures ' would be worthless. How things are done in The City are no doubt quite different.
  25. re: PPirates I live w of BOS. 'burbs Amazon , or any other delivery company \ is responsible for loss. loss has gotten to be a big deal for UPS // FedEx // and Amazon. enough people claim to have not received their package that the delivery folk take a pic of the item in your ' porch ' you get the pic w your email delivery notification.
