  1. well what do I know ? I should have paid more attention : a scallop on the cook-top " so it must be some sort of ? gas cooktop rats
  2. Cheers these pics come from a british show Saturday Morning w James Msrtin so all Kudos go o them for review purposes : what are the cooktops being used and the pan ? does the pan have cooper in its ' sandwich ' greatly appreciate some insight into the technical cook top here just to give full credit this is House of Tides http://houseoftides.co.uk and the chef is Chef Kenny Atkinson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kenny_Atkinson_(chef) here is another pan a saucier ? I note the thick bottom could this be a commercial induction top ? I also note that the ' bits ' on the stove top on our R are not burning so : commercial induction ?
  3. @whenric Thank You ! how much roughly of your 1 kg meat were you able to fit into the Spizall at one time ?
  4. @whenric thank you ! I haven't looked up in MC how they made the Jus ... I do recall a video they made available does anyone have a ref to that vid ? Im sure I have in somewhere in a billion-gazillion book marks would you have extracted ore Jus if you ground the meat ? either w a grinder or the Cuisinart chill - pulse - chill etc method ?
  5. got a PM said to work well for MC Jus Yikes ! so clean up's a real pain , right ? all that grease ...... he said hopefully .......

  7. its late for basil Id say in your area. when I used to grow it in quantity for freezing as a component for pesto : basil and EVOO ( no cheese ! ) ( outdoors ) I had to start early in the season. can't really say how much you are going to get under the lights.
  8. WoW didn't know they didn't sell suitcases in EU for " treasures ' nice to know.
  9. @lindag same here w a PeanutButter and jelly sandwich or two. for a while there was Hot Soup in the lunch pail. Campbell's of course but those thermo's didn't last long of no more soup I gather these days one is not allowed to bring PB&J sandwiches to school a bit sad , that.

    Dinner 2017 (Part 6)

    @Okanagancook nice really nice looking forward to your further adventures.
  16. I made that same one from Time - Life Snacks & Sandwiches Id suggest that now days you use a little less butter between the slices still quite a bit but not 1/4 " - 1/2 " pre slice. 1/4 " of the freshest you can get would be fine. Or ...... the hunters might not made back
  17. so far so good i dont recall any dairy but it gives me a start many thanks no reason you can't keep responding
  18. thank your so much for your replies Ill look them over I do remember the crumb of these cakes very much suited me and were not compacted ande had a nice brown sugar flavor the smaller aluminum pans lined was my idea to make them as gifts ! thanks for your insight
  19. I didn't know this topic existed ! Id like some help : quite some time ago , possibly fro Gourmet , this would have been in 1999 I found a Rx for fruit cake that I adopted into smaller aluminum semi-disposable forms i used a large variety of Trader Joe's dried fruit , chopped up as needed I lined the smaller aluminum pans w parchment and added the mix It possible I have the Rx somewhere , but many HardDrives have some and gone however , I remember that I baked the FC at about 300 for several hours give or take and what's important to me , is that the ' cake ' portion of the FC' had a good crumb and a light brown color and an incredible flavor. brown sugar must have been involved. the then let the small caked cool a bit , picked them out of the containers which I used over and over and placed them in individual plastic bags and carefully slit the tops here and there and added Booze good quality mostly Myers Rum ( dark ) but for some friends bourbon about 1/2 cup / unit I then let them mature for 4 - 5 months and gave them away as gifts. Id appreciate some help being in the Web age to try to reproduce these FC Im looking for that same ' crumb ' and lower temp cooking manny thanks ! P.S. : no weird green candied Yuk was ever used !
  20. no matter what those Puppies are for get two of each. just saying. Yikes if I were there Id get 4 of each "" break-age " best stuff ive seen for the Kitchen in some time !
  21. P.S.: @Kerry Beal remember this : your eye caught those two items above for a reason ! keep that in mind ! P.S.S. : of course if Amazon has them Ill get 2 of each having no idea what they do but I do know they do [ whatever ] very well.
  22. gee wizz @Kerry Beal get right back to that shop and buy those white upside-down thing-ies if not 2 of each why ? your are going to have NightMares of a Phantasmagoric Nature for quite some time if you don't bring back (2) of each. the british beer mug not so much. I don't even know what those white things are but they are perfect and Speak to Me. just saying
  23. @TicTac cheers if you are thinking : "" cheapest source "" take more time to look into Japanese Knives. aside from a significantly different upkeep on them , vs european knives which you should enjoy, as that's part of the knife culture for these knives don't think cheapest. I have several Globals as you mentioned them , and I bought the EdgePro as that was the only way I coul;d maintain them to my liking. if razor sharp they are very fine knives. ignore exchange rates. find a vendor in Japan that will accept US Postal order in US dollars and agree on the exchange of the day and send them that vis AirMail its a bit cheaper than PayPal when you look into the real final costs. interns of your hand feel : look at your Globals and go from there : length ? height ? i.e. clearance for you hand ? that all the info you need take your time. the Watanabe's I have were not cheap but very fairly prices for then end result : very very rewarding for me. every time i use them many times a day i.e. : better than sousVide ! now that says something !
  24. @Norm Matthews that looks outstanding would you pass on the exact model as Id like to look it up interesting that the top oven looks larger than the bottom cheers
  25. @Docrjm nice the SpZal does not do MC Beef or other meat " jus" so im not in the market however what is that pretty snappy Jug on the Left ? Nice ! that jug is Talking to Me !
