  1. the implication of the article is that the organic produce quality has declined and there is less of it. I don't shop there as I never felt the prices were justified. there is a TJ's across the street. now that Tj's has RedBoat40 for 1/2 the WF price .....
  2. Anova back down to $ 80 https://www.amazon.com/Anova-Culinary-A2-2-120V-US-Precision-Circulator/dp/B00UKPBXM4?SubscriptionId=AKIAJ7T5BOVUVRD2EFYQ&tag=camelbpa-20&linkCode=xm2&camp=2025&creative=165953&creativeASIN=B00UKPBXM4
  3. 1 ) see what you think w plain rice ( salt etc ) w a tiny bit of saffron then you will know Rice + Saffron tastes like etc the dishes you propose sound very tasty. I can't say if the coconut milk might mask the saffron just use a little saffron , it goes a long way and you want subtle saffron flavor it would be much easier for you to send the S to me Id comment fairly and then you could go out and buy some more !
  4. fair saffron rice is not a simple rice dish. Try one cup of rice , in your usual cooking mentod rinsed rice etc w just a pinch of the S. 5 - 7 '' Units '' no more and see if you like it it will keep once you Go Nuts w that flavor subtle flavor we are looking at here 1 cup rice , 5 or less individual ' units ' might be better for your Journey. Ho Hum your Say ? 5 units or less ? then just send all the rest to me. i'll figure it out.
  5. @FeChef no matter. it doesn't say how much is in each Vial ut I tried to magnify the jars ?? 0.03 oz each ? still no matter who knows how much that is Id think Rice , regular on the stove ( don't add the s too soon ) or Fuzzy Rice cooker ( the same on timing ) or iPot ( as above ) worth trying.
  6. Garden Fresh tomatoes : and Imported ( probably more like Exported ) to boot ! can't get this sort of Aroma any other way !
  7. Would you help ID this Japanese Knife ? its a westernized Japanese knife from Great British Menu thanks
  8. Please Please take some pics. ask about their Combi-Ovens hope you can tolerate the potential line at http://www.schwartzsdeli.com pic good from there too. just not to many.
  9. hard to see the water level w the foil but a good idea tea towel folded over for me. after all in some places in this world aluminum is tariff Bait.
  10. dilute hot bleach w the Thumb on the opening rinse w hot water let dry while you are away Why are you not taking the CSO with you ? just asking
  11. Ive had this. I rinse it out w hot water first then a little bleach and hot water , about a cup total. I put my thumb over the valve area and give it a good shake. I don't want bleach to damage the rubber gasket , if it might. Ive used a long thin brush to get some of it out in the past the reservoir get sun in the afternoon after its ' clean enough ' I cover that 1/2 w a folded ' tea or kitchen ' towel that seems to take care of the problem and I take the towel away when using the CSO. as mentioned above , I think its algae or the like not mold. mold generally floats on the top of liquid
  12. Id make the manager drink some of the coffee that's just me and its really really hot and humid here. MR is not cutting it.
  13. Id takt to Canadian Tire.
  14. Im just wondering before in this Heat I enjoy a Personal Beverage is it possible , that the versions for out Friends from N.of.the.Boreder had too many letters on their versions ? From a Tire Company ? just saying the CSO that I have , w a lot of Patina is doing well. CSO2 is still in its semi box , where MC enjoys taking a view from time to time its all we can get. the Anova Team , bless them w their windfall seems to still be Skinny Dipping in Bora Bora doubt we will ever see their version and indeed a Rational Combi perhaps a smaller second on top for Bread is the way to go a member here some time ago posted about getting one of these in their home Vent , 3 phase power , etc congratulations to them

    Dinner 2018

    @Ann_T how did you do your pork belly ? outstanding looking plate !
  17. @barolo thank you for the ref to the newer cookbooks. Im very interested in Rose Levy Beranbaum Rose’s Baking Basics and possibly Sister Pie by Lisa Ludwinski Ive never been much of a a baker , but have most of RoseLevyBeranbaum' s books and her PBS baking show. Id enjoy an opinion from the Fine Bakers here on these two books Im fortunate to have a large library system that gets most books and already have these two on reserve thanks again
  18. if you have any currants left , hydrate them, then sate them the small ones I got from Trader Joes almost irrelevant were small and a bit gritty. I dont recall if I hydrated them before using but I loved the somewhat tart , ' red ' flavor they added to home made fruit cake I did add 1/3 cut rum after baking , and matured them for 4 - 6 months maybe the Rum got together w the dried currants ? TJ's has not had currants , usually a few months before Christmas for years and years.
  19. @Pete Fred fine stuff why do you think your currants were flavo(u)r less ? I have not seen any at Trader Joes for a long time , but I liked them way back when which is meaningless. consider other dried fruit , which you might need to chop to get to the right size a pain I know why not flavor(u)r you simple syrup a little honey ? almond extract ? I mention these a I do love Buns Sticky or not just like yours you've done the very hard part well : you made them and baked them! looking forward to your further Bum adventures.
  20. this one puzzles me : the term “plant-based meats” what to call animal tissue grown ' Off the Hoof " who knows. calling it Clean Meat is idiotic. " Mon , can we have TissueBurgers tonight ? " and this image it really pushing it. earlier in the thread it was asked How many people think Almond Milk comes from a lactating female mammal shudder to think about the ranges of answers remember Jay Leno's " Jay Walking ? "
  21. @kayb not difficult. what you describe is coffee , pre-ground in bags the cheapest available. passed through a coffee-system that has not been cleaned and left at too hot a temp for two long. why not get of hold of a manager and express yourself ?
  22. Almond Milk is much tastier than Almond juice.
  23. These days , its about advertising. and advertising creates fortunes that are made by implying something appears to be something else. It would be entertaining to know how much money is being spent to protect or exploit common words like Meat , Mayo , and Etc.
  24. for some time , in the WSJ and NYTimes , which I read there have been articles on food labeling and what the three terms above really mean these are exceptionally valuable terms commercially. this showed up : https://www.usatoday.com/story/money/2018/08/28/animal-meat-missouri-law/1114285002/ I think its all interesting. is ' meat ' something from an animal ? muscle cells are being cultured , and labeled ' clean ' veggie burgers are a ' meat' substitute is ' Mayo ' and emulsion that contains eggs ? their are emulsions w no eggs in the supermarket calling themselves Mayo is ' milk ' something from a lactating mammal ? Almond milk ? there may be other terms that are used now that try to link w the ' real stuff ' Billions and billions at ' Steak ' P.S.: scroll down here : https://urbanvegan.net/egg-free-mayonnaise-brands/ ' Just Mayo ' vs Hellman's
