ive moved on to another doz. eggs. I can't say how long they have been in the refrig. as I did not keep track, I made sure the eggs were on the bottom shelf and closest to the refrigerators back wall. the initial 6 were not very impressive. but they have started to have firmer yolks , so sure and possible more of that egg-ey flavor. the second part hight be ' suggestion ' but the yolks have gotten firmer. I have another doz back there and will get to them soon. I have 2 doz I got a week ago and they will join their friends as far back on the bottom shelf as i can put them.

@JoNorvelleWalker well .... I do not think Any Pork Loin is well marbled maybe better marbled Porky is not Beefy , the Prime ++ so the flavor(u)r of the Berkie is or might be consistent in all His or her parts a loin of Berkie might have more flavor than ConAgra's pork but understating how to cook each and I recount SV so consider it.

one thing about SV : although the size / width of your item matters initially for temperature equilibrium , it does not matter for the final ' done-ness ' i.e. Rare , Medium , and god forbid it please , Well Done. therefore , you can get ' perfect ' done-ness on cuts that have a smaller diameter : consider cutting that large pork loin ( the loin , not the tenderloin ) in 1/2 , lengthwise and cooking several bags at the same time , rapid chill and freeze the extra few very little extra work , and they are cooked and ready to re-therm any time. you Freezer is you SV multiplier . keep that in mind.

there is going to be an Aldi near me at some point re-consturction ( taking out what was already there and expanding the store size ) Ill look for that if I can remember repost the pic , just in case that's helpful to those who missed it Ill give the TJ's version some thought if I see it on a Lightning Blitz -
it would be foolish to hand out candy in any fashion and even more foolish for adults [sic] to allow their children to congregate to collect the candy. just s stupid adea this year.

@Kim Shook take notes on that timing ! next time you get yolks just like that make deviled eggs. best deviled eggs ever I guarantee . dont know why , or chopped eggs for an egg salad sandwich.

@Kim Shook on my simplest generic machine the single paddle came out. over time , bits of bread got stuck on that area and it was difficult to reach in there and clean the water soak worked. from then on I put a drop go oil on the inner paddle area that sat open the post. the bread came out easily , w the paddle in the bread. Id look in your manual or call the machines 800 number is they have on , and ask them about this.

@heidih I understand this completely : consider torching the Dogs after the Micro w a ' torch ' dont use your GrandMa's chine for this keep the torch not as close as you thing if you like toasted generic buns , fine I like mired ( steam'd ) buns , and the micro does this fine the rest you put on this deliciousness is up to you but simple stuff ' Before ' is so much more tasty now. -
Ive started this here as its about The Can itself. some time ago , maybe a good while TestKitchen ( my personal BetNoir ) in a show suggested , that for tomatoes Organic tomato cans ( they looked back then a little brassy or goldie on the surface ) vs non-organic ( silver-ish ) gave the tomato dans le can a better tomato ( think your garden ) favor(u)r I recall , distantly that I saw this idea again now : Im not interested in Organic for Health reasons just the Can for tomatoes ( acidic ? ) does this matter for flavor ? or you know ATK ? why am I asking ? I plan , after a few naps , to make either from a Jar ( crushed tomatoes , not from tomatoes paste ) or a can of ?? organic ' paste ' tomatoes and male "" Meat Balls " SV'dish Target has crushed tomatoes , well reviewed but they wont ship them to me, so , have your read , or understand the differences in Organic and (n) organic cans re flavour ? Tj's has some Organic crushed tomatoes I might just go that way TJ's has a lot of jared tomato sauce Im not sure if any of them start w ' crushed tomatoes " Rao jared sauce deos do this but that's not they way I choose to go just yet thank you its about the can some time ago ion a jared sauce thread it was pointed out I could easily make Rao w canned plum tomaotes so its about that thread which I cant just now cheers """ Happy Cooking !

@Darienne look into Ken-Ken http://www.kenkenpuzzle.com/# zillion skill levels. -
@Kim Shook I wouldn't go searching around ( these days ) for RB-40 ThaiKitchen will be fine but if you see bottle , fairly priced ( ie not @ whole foods ) snap one up. it lasts a long long time and is worth it.

@md8232 I get all my bags here : https://vacuumsealersunlimited.com free shipping on many of the 3-MIL bags https://vacuumsealersunlimited.com/product-category/commercial-chamber-vacuum-sealer-bags-pouches/3-mil-chamber-bags/ its not a mistake to get 1,000 in two sizes ( w free shipping ) seems like a lot , but Life is Long. I use 8 x 10 , and 10 x 13 there are other sizes , like 8 x 12, etc but if they are not listed on this site , they are just out of them temporarily. very nice people. Ive called them several times about ' this and that ' free shipping is significant , as 1,000 bags of 10 x 13 is pretty heavy. I cut down the larger bags sometimes for smaller work. I dont know the width of your sealing bar keep that in mind if you cut down a bag and plan to re-seal that edge as chamber bags are so cheap , I now Vac. Penzey's larger bags of dried herbs , and many of their spice blends. they stay much fresher , and blends w sugar do not absorb moisture and do not cake up. I love Bell's Poulty seasoning. it goes on sale a few weeks before thanks giving. it powdered and fresher at that time of the year I bag several boxes and put the vac's bags in my freezer and I get better results over the year(s) that way. that stuff sits on the self at a grocery store a long long time it seems also, if there is some ' head space ' on your vac'd items I open that bag up , take out what I need , and re-seal that same bag that's a 4 cent saving right there ! I do this w my home roasted coffee : as soon as a roast is cool , I vac bag the next day there is some CO2 in the bag ( normal ) I just snip the top off and reseal. I take out a few days worth of coffee and reseal that same bag again etc

Red Boat 40 https://www.amazon.com/Red-Boat-Fish-Sauce-2-250/dp/B0037J1YO2 Tj's has it @ 50 % less than WholeFoods ! any good fish sauce will do . but be very very careful with it : you drop a glass jar of this stuff in your kitchen , you will be moving to Alaska !
-
I also use RB-40 in place of anchovies if I open a can of A's , they never get used. it just gets the job done. I cook a 1-minute egg , out of the refrigerator into simmering water , then rinse in cold water to handle , and use that egg being careful to scrape out all the solids that cling to the shell.

@Anna N thank you for the reference . enjoyed that vid , and a few others linked on the R esp one on chicken from the Wolfe Pit. pies contain Margarine ! and apparently the soggy ' under crust ' is " highly prized ' I believe it ! now if Amazon would sell me a few of these of different fillings ( there is a Steak and Ale ! ) w free shipping ie 2 pies for 9 USD well , that would give me something to do every few weeks ( 2.6 grams of NaCL / pie ! )
