@Smithy you are moving in the proper direction. freshly ground , whole toasted ( not burnt ! ) cumin seed might be a consideration . a littlewillgo a long way

@Anna N I agree. most non-meat labeled hot dogs have a lot of pork in then HD's w cheese is a sort of culinary disease.

went to Aldi this Am senior hours mostly for more bird seed. but they did not have any more 20 lbs bag no problem ,I ordered 2 x 40 lbs from walmart Im guessing part of the Aldi ' frugal ' business model is they keep very little stock reserves. thus when the pallet of 20 lbs bird seed was gone , it was replaced by something else. i think the birds like the Pennington better they did have two chocolates they were out of before : mint dark , and orange dark. they also had the bratwursts I like. so not a bad trip. and no one else in the store until I left.

I almost got a 3 mm copper asparagus pot , w a fitting lid in Paris , when I got my other dozen or so it was the next pan up. for asparagus probably 4 - 5 "in diameter , 13 " tall. My father got angina so I stopped. Nice i bet it was. @Anna N "" holding spare rolls of toilet paper in the bathroom out of reach of playful pets' nice Earthquake , whom you see upper L loved doing the Toilet Roll Work Out. I saw the results my father, recovered from soo0o many copper pans he used two pans : thin , aluminum , 5 am for his needs and did well anyway he put heavy rubber band on the TP worked. never heard what Earthquake thought about it.

MA Skinny

were you able to taste those steaks ?

@Smithy interesting about the butter Ive never understood why the difference BTW would like to hear what you think of those wines.

why th pink salt ?

not 'publishing ' an Rx is going to help a lot. im sure of this

@Lord_Pall "" Oven is mega dirty. No idea how to keep this thing clean. Oven cleaner didn't help with cooked on stuff, but it also made the oven stinky for a while since it's so airtight. I'm not just wiping things out. I have stopped air frying things that can get fat all over for this reason. "" doesn't this oven have a ' Steam-Clean ' setting ? similar to the CSO major CombiOvens have this , as a key feature but those are plumbed in w a drain and some actually wash the oven just like a dishwasher and do a rinse cycle w pain water. the CSO get very clean w just steam you do have to wipe it down after and have an empty drain ' box'

@weinoo "" you have to guess what you're getting, for say...$24. "' not that much in NYC Id guess pla see: @Katie Meadow previous post better hope for the '' Foam "" after all it might be made w NYC water.

Le Tounge is what Ive got and it working for me Im grateful

P.S ; S's cat ? more a sub-atomic issue EVOO more a ' bending ' of space-time like this : EVOO is a bit to the far Left Id think

@FlashJack exactly evidence ? I do like the result on le tounge. MC is not involved

it goes back into the refig it come out to get a little more ' liquid ' so I can pour from it into the smaller squeeze bottle. it never gets to room temp. note the top on the squeeze bottle : very hard to find these bottle were a ' sample ' dumped the contents and use them as above. note the kalamata has two different levels : the top is ' smother ' the bottom a bit more granular. that means I took the bottle out of the refuge , left it at room temp just enough time to fill the little bottle. note the squeeze bottle is ' liquid ' I left ie out this am for todays use. generally , I don't leave it o0ut that long but , it still tastes like ' Kalamata ' not oxidized. works for me.

@palo I ' Toss and Turn All Night ' ref.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghFBvBmXv4E thinking about this AltonBrown's refrigerator has a RefrigCam when he shuts the door his lights go out. that's all ive got for now

I decant my major oil : TJ's Kalamata EVOO from Greece into a much smaller squeeze bottle , that has a tight top and I can squeeze what I need out of that. it warms up if I take it out and I get just the amount of what i want that way then it goes back into the refrigerator.

Ive recently been watching the Ted Lasso series from Apple. its not for everyone , but it seems to fit w Apple's design genre. ' Greyhound ' and ' Ted Lasso ' have much on common but this is a FoodForum : TL has shortbread as a continuing bit part . this appeared : https://www.david-smith.org/blog/2021/04/21/breadcrumbs/ who is the first to make it here ? ( the blond version )

i keep all oils in the refrigerator. its cold , and usual dark why not ?

@Kim Shook sorry to hear about your '' Dry Experience " and I think , if they ran out of the "" Brioche "" that might have been an improvement guess they gave you a LeftOver QP bun. sorry to hear that. next time make sure , if you are in that situation and very very hungry get the '' spicy " or drive on By.

I found this ref : https://time.com/5342337/best-worst-cooking-oils-for-your-health/ "" Canola oil is derived from rapeseed, a flowering plant, and contains a good amount of monounsaturated fats and a decent amount of polyunsaturated fats. Of all vegetable oils, canola oil tends to have the least amount of saturated fats. It has a high smoke point, which means it can be helpful for high-heat cooking. That being said, in the United States, canola oil tends to be highly processed, which means fewer nutrients overall. “Cold-pressed” or unprocessed canola oil is available, but it can be difficult to find. "" """ in the United States, canola oil tends to be highly processed "" perhaps in GB its processed ' cold pressed ?'

Ive seen the term ' heritage ' applied to grains existing pre-1950 , to indicate pre intense manipulation why 1950 as a cut off , can't say

Sooo many apologies : I should have said " members dictate menu policies "" Its possible some #R_O#$Y% politician might raise issue w this menu policy but I was responding to @gfweb and I tried to indicate gender neutrality was a feature all guests would be treated the same by the member. and members had a choice and choice is not the same as discrimination.

@gfweb I don't think Im a sexist , and Im sure Im out of date on several items : SocialMedia ( a disease ) etc if a club is private , members dictate policy. if a member ( either gender ) wanted to treat guests any gender w a menu that had no prices , I dont see any problem at all. to the member , who is paying I suppose , it might suggest to the guests , ' Please help your self ' now , the Wine List : far more problematic. the member is the only one that gets it but then discusses w the guests their preferences and then matches the wines w the meal. I have no problem w that at all. note : gender neutral . of course , the member would have the option of standard menus for all. it would be noted on the members ' preference list ' and thus be automatic.

I mentioned canola here : https://forums.egullet.org/topic/162161-cookbooks-2021/page/2/?tab=comments#comment-2295407 was not aware of this thread. of note , all oils can be made by different methods. some really really bad , but cheap. perhaps that's USA Canola's method.
