so you dont loose too much sleep : Letitica Cropley was the characters name, above , at the new vicar's reception she made : Ham and Lemon curd ( above ) and Penutbutter and Anchovey sandwiches it get a lot more epicurean after that .
-
For review purposes only : she is of course knitting Pink. before the new Vicar show ups. just hoping to save you some time .... never saw this in Colour.
-
she had an epicurean part : she always brought the weirdest stuff to the Church's Board meetings.

@JoNorvelleWalker I never peel potatoes any more clean them yes, but the skin , russets or red bliss add I feel add a lot of flavor . for MP @ the iPot I do roughly chop them in big chunks after cleaning then into the steamer basket I can tell you this keeps a lot of flavor in the potato and out of the water . way before the iPot I make MPs frequently I peeled back then. then cut the potatoes into smaller and smaller chunks , to get them boiled sooner. I noticed after a while , the MP's On the plate , were lacking I realized I was making , in my haste , potato water. then kept the skins on , and Sooooo Much better , on the plate. and the skins stay on for the MP's and add a lot of flavor the iPot , w basket , makes MP very easily.

My Bud Bezos ( speed dial # 2 ) [ed.: rotuts has Shares ] insisted on giving me a $ 10 credit for Prime Day maybe even before , syntax was problematic now , everyone , call him and insist on a deep discount on the 3 Qt iPot. cheers

my error : the CSO has a sl smaller foo0tprint , and is on top of the Micro works well. note the fabulous Patina on the CSO. its taken me a long time to get the CSO to this state. tasty. BTW this is not a ' Full Power ' Micro. or , not as powerful as the temperamental GE above the overn : 1 cup tap water to boil : GE : 3 minutes Toshiba : 4 minutes. inner light works in the Toshiba , GE light gave out some time ago .

Simple : Mashed Potatoes : use russets , and do not peel them. you can ' clean them up ' works well in an iPot : pressure-steam the potatoes until tender why ? your not making potatoes soup ! this keeps a lot more flavor in the potatoes , and not the water. pour off the water in the iPot . add the PS'd potatoes , and use a hand masher to break up. let some of the extra moisture evaporate on low-warm , if you like. heat your milk, full fat milk. your butter is soft and at room temp. when ready , hand mash in your butter first. add salt and a tiny bit of freshly grated nutmeg. just a hint , after you grate off the surface , which has lost its aroma. then using a hand electric mixer , is you have one, whip and add hot milk to get your desired fluffiness. Some like a few tiny lumps in the MP , some do not. personal choice cover w a tea towel and keep warm. the tea towel absorbs the steam so it does not drip bake onto the mashed potato's surface as it would if you used an ordinary lib. Simple . delicious , make sure you make enough as they will disappear . there are plenty of mighty fine potato Rx's , as noted above but Russet=Mashed is at the top of my list. think about what these potatoes would be like w top quality gravy over them

I agree micro's is not a high priority item. my GE built in above the stove , maybe 18 years old has become very funky. it starts the wrong program etc. I was going to get the electrical panel that's under the buttons and replace it w a friend , but then C-19 etc. its useful for : boiling water , micro'ing fz veg in water , softening butter from the refrig and vital is you patronize TJ's Fz and Refrigerated prepared foods I keep the door open after micro'ing above the stove , and the only thing that makes sense to the issues is moisture from the cavity getting into the electronic area. I unplug overnight , then it works for a while if you dont do any of the above , then I can see little need for a micro. however , I got this : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072JML2GZ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 inexpensive , and mentioned in a CSO/ASO thread as the CSO fits right on top of this as its footprint is only sl larger than the CSO.

@ Kim Shook I cant recall the temps , but Im wondering if low-pressure , but for longer of course ( Unattended ! excellent time for Personal Beverages ! ) would give more flavor-fun meat. making sure you get the tenderness you want. Im a low-temp beef person so Im prejudiced , but if L-P iPot keeps more Jus in the meat ( it might not ) than more flavor w each chew. granted braise is about the sauce ...

chuck is the correct cut. not stew meat , which is marketed trimmings from her and there the butcher wants to get rid of probably a lot from the leg etc. if you try this again , get a chuck roast or a nice thick 7-blade cut. look for that muscle right under the 7 its the Blade. or get a blade roast and dont let it near the iPot and use the iPot for your potatoes and reduced Zin.

@TdeV Im not sure about beef in an iPot. Id say you know when the beef is done , buy keeping notes on what you've done , and go from there. Im not trying to be flippant. then , say you get the beef done to your liking do it the day before and let the beef and the juices re-equilablrage overnigh in the fridge . Chuck can be cooked , but still not tender. looks like that's what you've gotten Hope the Zin was table Zin , and it took too much for the team it is a good thing you reduced it before you added it to the iPot.

to contiune ... my larger pots , eventually had various " baskets " that sat above the trivet so they the items in that basket , might pressure-steam and be easily removed at that P.S. is there something iike that for the 3 Qt ? thanks its just easier to pull a basket out of any iPot when iPotted over the water below the trivit.

thank you all again my goal was to see if the ATK idea , from the past that Organic tomatoes were canned differently than regular , and the can used w organics contributed to a ' fresher ' flavor ' I grabbed a few of these @ my last TJ's blitz: Ill save them for my MeatBallSV project . I dont think my local Tj's has fresh ground pork possibly Fz , as the two meat components Ill get are Beef and Pork , fresh ( blister packed ) ground. Ill let you know what this can looks like. and I do know from jared sauce , that if the first ingredient is tomato paste vs crushed tomatoes ( more expensive for some reason ) the taste between the two jared sauces is distinctly different.

Well, Ill live them a Kudos for being honest and calling it Salt. still, would love to try it.

@liamsaunt was all that wine included ?

I hesitate to start a new topic . [ed.: Ha Ha Ha ] it came up elsewhere that a 3 qt iPot might be nice for pressure steam'd rice , a few PS'd potatoes etc if you have a 3 qt iPot what sort of bowl fits in it , above the minimum water level for iPot'd steamed rice ? maybe AmPrime will have iPots ( basic ) on sale but Id like to investigate that bowl first how much rice might one fit in that bowl ? 1 cup rice + water to get the rice just right is what Im looking for.

vacuum sealing simply removes almost all of the air. the preserving part of the equation is independent to that. your salami wont dry out w vacuum sealing , but i cant say if you can keep it at room temp , or need to refrigerate or even freeze.
