    Dinner 2021

    @Wait. Wot looking forward to to seeing your results. nice drip pan combo. and idea to think about ; get an oblong aluminum pan. the disposable ( but you are going to use it over and over again ) type I lined mine w parchment paper , caught all the drippings and was an easy clean up. those disposables last a long long time if you take care of them and they come is all sorts of sizes.
  3. @gfweb looking forward to your review of your new stash. I have the site BK'd hoping someone tries their meat along w their fish.
  4. @liamsaunt I look forward to all of your trips. Thank you for sharing this one.
  5. Thicker to me means its cut closer to the head. thicker might mean ' for uniform cooking ' for sure but Id love to be able to get the cuts closest to the head. some you can tell by the ' shoulder ' fin indentation.
  6. My question about where the cut comes from simply gives me a good idea if they do grading of some sort , based on different flavor and texture. ( ie Fat ) they seem to , which I think is a very good thing. Id pay a reasonable amount more for cuts closer to the head . Im keeping this place in mind for the future ! P.S.: that's not to say that the rest of the salmon is not top notch freshly frozen fish.
  7. @Smithy what plan did you get ? ie the order we see in the pic and your description
  8. @Smithy thanks for your through review inc packing I have an odd question : on the salmon(s) : did the individual Fz packs have both ' toward the head ' filet and tail filet ? Im hoping they have plenty of TTH filets !

    Fruit

    I used to do the same, as above but grew the melons semi-vertical ( 45 degrees ) on a trellis like system I made. saved ground space , and keep the melons clean and dry
  11. anyone know the details on this knife ? it was on a recent CookingShow. not the knife they recomme3nd , but one that's used. thanks
  12. All of this is Business. perfectly fine , if that's y0our business model but , acknowledge your re-prints by law. than its up to the consumer to deside how many Rx's , the same Rx's , do you want to buy
  13. @Aki interesting work ! what is the sensing device you are using ? Im wondering what sort of data you might get w the pan 1/2 filled w water for 100 C or less ? and oil for higher temps ?
  14. ATK are true Artists of Churn. I discovered this many many many years ago when their books were on ' sale ' at an early amazon for 40 % off. then Google decided they were going to create a ' bill pay ' system , a bit like PayPal so , you got an additional 20 % off any book @ Amazon and some how , this used your credit card. so I got quite a few ATk and they were worth reading back then then i noticed a dupe , them any more dupes so I called them in Brookline MA , they answered their phone back them and got to an editor. they said at least 40 % / book was ' new ' I stopped buying. and used the l9brary. BTW \doing what they are doing is against the copyright law. you can re-publish material that was copyrighted but you have to indicate on the InfoPage what those previous CR material was they don't do this . CK move that same economic model over to MilkStreet but I must say the current ATK is a manufacturing Cabal of ATK cookbooks. they get first prize for Production.
  15. im not impressed by AP Day. on the one had , there is nothing I need and not much Id like then read this : https://finance.yahoo.com/news/amazon-prime-day-deals-expected-100000389.html I did not realize 3d party merchants ' bid ' on advertising words. JB is clever

    Dinner 2021

    I was under the impression that a lot of ui comes from Maine ad is air shipped from the docks to Japan. the sea urchins used to be tossed and were more a problem for the fishing nets now, or then are or were a ' cash ' crop. maybe over harvested ?

    @Shelby too bad you didn't love the Uni. y favorite looks like you bought a ton. hoping it was really really fresh so you didn't get something not at its peak.
  20. from time to time on y Google nes feed there are TJ's recommendations from various sources : https://www.insider.com/best-and-worst-summer-items-at-trader-joes-reviewed-photos I enjoynthese , as I see things I might have missed the store.
  21. on a different thread https://forums.egullet.org/topic/162774-emerils-pizza-grillany-experience-with-it/?tab=comments#comment-2303016 a new , and quite small Pizza oven , Emeril Branded for $ 39.99 !!! what a deal ! Oooops 3 payments ! any way my question : have you tried or use Chef Branded equipment ? how do you rate it compared to ' other ' similar choices ? Raymond Blanc has a set of mid-priced anodizes aluminum w a steel base for induction etc Thomas Keller has a set : https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/all-clad-tk-7-piece-fry-pan-and-sauce-pan-set/ and I wonder if its not doing well at all , N.B. : the deep discount. personally , Ive not found much ' added ' from TheChef and generally more expensive. except of course for the small pan , a loss-leader to get you hooked. P.S.: Tk's line @ WS has traditional french restaurant ' lids ' for the pots. very cool . I has a set of these w my Dehlerings cooper ware. they are practical for a restaurant , as you can grab the next size up from your pan , and it works , daily well at home , the designs demerits come out. steam condenses on the lid . it drains to the edge of the lid as these are not air tight nor drip proof and drips on your stove.
  22. Emeril has made a significant contribution making TV cooking shows popular, via the early days of Food Network his initial content for the shows was interesting. "" BAM ! "" not so much. I started watching less and less after I taught myself a bit about BBQ he then did a show where he par-boiled the pork ribs for possibly an oven BBQ. BAM ! however , his branded cooking merchandise strikes me as average to less than average. I have a small 8 " All-Clad Calphalon frying pan. I got it as I wanted to try that size a long long time ago and the 8" was deeply discounted as an entry point to the complete line. ita All-Clad , so you have that. its well made but its performance is only average. nothing wrong w Branded Chef's selling their name to something but it would be nice if the results were ' better than average , minimum ' reflecting the Chef's experience. Thomas Keller and Raymond Blanc have their own line. wonder how these Pan Out

  24. @shain what do you mean by generic vegetables ?
  25. @Duvel go for the gas version. you can add a few hardwood pellets for a little smoke if you like https://www.amazon.com/Lumber-Jack-varieties-Pellet-Maple-Hickory-Cherry/dp/B01J8P9M6A/ref=sr_1_13?_encoding=UTF8&c=ts&dchild=1&keywords=Grilling+Wood+Pellets&qid=1623858173&s=lawn-garden&sr=1-13&ts_id=7509667011
