    Smoking Meat

    in Cooking

    Posted · Edited by rotuts (log)

    ive done corned beef @ 140 F for 48 hrs.

     

    chilled

     

    then placed the cold pieces , saving the jus , on a cold Weber

     

    that Ive then cold smoked for 1 hour with wood pellets in a wood pellet holder.

     

    plenty smoky for me.

     

    re-baged w a little bit of the cold jus ,k 2 - 3 T / bag , vacc'd and Fz.

     

    makes an excellent smoked corn beef sandwich.

     

    I dint know what to call 140 CB  that is very tender , in terms of done=ness

     

    no bark , but so easy to do.

    personally , " Diner Peas '   ie canned.  

     

    fresh or frozen fresh  ,  are for Pot Pies.

    w the iPot I wonder why use converted rice ?

     

    recently Ive been doing Basmati in the iPot  

     

    using the pot-in-the-pot method.

     

    Ill post this later

     

    wash the basmati , or what ever raw rice you are using

     

    to get rid of the rice-starch they use to keep the greens separate in the bag.

     

    rinse until the water is clear.   strain out the rice and place in the smaller bowl

     

    add the amount of water to that bowl that suits your taste :

     

    Im using a heaping cup of Daawat Basmati   ( more on this brand later )

     

    and just a little over one cup water

     

    place the bowl on the trivet in the iPot.  don't forget top add one cup of water to the iPot first

     

    6 min on high , 10 minute release

    Instant Pot. Multi-function cooker (Part 5)

    in Kitchen Consumer

    Posted · Edited by rotuts (log)

    im looking for a larger bowl for bowl-in-bowl cooking in the ipot.

     

    I have the Tovolo 1.5 qt bowl , and I like it a lot.

     

    there seems to be a 3.5 qt Tovolo , but not on Amazon :

     

    https://www.amazon.com/Tovolo-Stainless-Steel-Mixing-Quart/dp/B001C0B02E/ref=pd_rhf_dp_s_all_spx_wp_0_5/131-8559044-3212828?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B001C0B02E&pd_rd_r=cbd52da6-68cf-4027-a9ce-2854999e69ba&pd_rd_w=hsSiv&pd_rd_wg=V8pKR&pf_rd_p=ffd394b3-6bb0-43ec-8bd8-b3dd44ab44d6&pf_rd_r=VAE48B6MYMC5Y2NT2KBK&refRID=VAE48B6MYMC5Y2NT2KBK&th=1

     

    of note AMZN lists its dimensions as :  12.63 x 4.5 x 1.38.     an odd sort of bowl if true

     

    its : 7 " x 7 " x 4 "  more or less

     

    I found this bowl on AMZN :

     

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00555EN58/ref=psdc_289696_t1_B00TNPEW7K

     

    the question is , will the rubber on the bottom do well under iPot conditions ?

     

    it looks very similar to the Tovolo

     

    your thoughts ?

     

    then there  is this one :

     

    https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TNPEW7K/ref=psdc_289696_t3_B001C0B02E

     

    but it dimensions seem to be 

     

    10 x 10 x 5  which might not fit.  the 6 qt iPot bowl seems to be 8.5 " wide  

     

    and 5.5 " deewpd w the trivet in place.

    although things might have changed w the newer Behmor , 

     

    I used an older model for several years roasting for drip for my sister.

     

    I had a different roaster for espresso.

     

    Im not sure what SM says about doing a full lbs on green beans on the B

     

    its very hard to do.   you would be better served doing two 1/2 lb roasts 

     

    and using the pre-heating hack found on the web.

     

    does quite well that way.

    The Gaijin Cookbook , via WSJ

    the WSJ had a review of

     

    The Gaijin Cookbook    this weekend :

     

    https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-a-ramen-master-cooks-at-home-11568137063

     

    or

     

    https://flipboard.com/@WSJ/how-a-ramen-master-cooks-at-home/f-b24053a956%2Fwsj.com

     

    it had an interesting Teriyaki sauce , called 12.0 :

     

     

    Teriyaki 12.0

    MAKES: 1 cup

    Teriyaki is the embodiment of the sweet-soy flavor so many people associate with Japanese food. It’s a lifesaver for weekday dinners, and you can also employ it for more elaborate projects like slow-cooked ribs. This one requires just five ingredients, and then you’re in teriyaki town.

    ¼ cup sake

    ¼ cup mirin

    ¼ cup soy sauce

    ¼ cup oyster sauce

    1 tablespoon sugar 

    In a bowl, whisk together all ingredients until sugar dissolves. You’re good to go. Store in the fridge up to a couple weeks.

     

    for review purposes.    I don't have sake , nor mirin.  but maybe you do and would like to try it and report back ?

     

    I have the cookbook on reserve from the local library.
