  1. @@ElsieD another thing : how hot does it get on average ? i.e.: would I be safe w this unit under a cabinet as my BV-Xl is now ?
  2. @ElsieD many thanks for that. would you tell us a little more on the proofing Function ? is there enough moisture in the oven so the top of the dough does not dry out and remains ' springy ? ' how is he clean up on the basket etc when you ' sir fry ?' er :cookies : is the fan on while you bake so you get convection currents ? have you baked bread in this after you've proof'd it ? many thanks

    Air Fryers

    thats a good question and its hard to say. certainly the BV-A has accessories trays that allow more air circulation i.e. baskets looking forward to @ElsieD 's review

    no you spray the oil on the item in question Im guessing the idea is that the oil heats up past 212 F and give you a ' fry effect ' in terms of heat content at the surface of the item. in the Cuisinart demo they didn't use oil on the fries .

    now if BV were not allergic to Steam .... I did go look at the BV at W-S its noticeably bigger , but not outrageously so. and they intimated 20 % off for ' friends and family ' what ever that means BB&B has given me 20 % off on the BV's Ive gotten there at the check-out although I guess they are not supposed to. the Cuisinart was not on display at W-S but they offered to see if they had one in the back and open it for me. I thought of taking a peek at BB&B which is not that far away but ran out of Steam 400 USD possibly 320 USD is a lot in my case for the Air-Fry-ing bits 200 is better ( ? 160 USD ) but Im not convinced they would get that chicken really really crispy. hope others can offer their comments on the Units they may have.
  8. Ive found a few YTube vids : ↵ Use original player Air Fryer Toaster Oven Demo (TOA-60) By Cuisinart YouTube 720p 360p ← Replay X i ↵ Use original player Breville Smart Oven Air Fried Chicken Kentucky Kernel By COOKINGWITHDOUG YouTube 720p 360p ← Replay X i on the R of the last vid there are a few more vids on the BV-air your thoughts ?

    interested in any reports on both the BOV900 and the Cuisinart TOA-60 re : air frying thanks
  10. thank you for sharing
  11. @Eric Srikandan however : best of luck to you !
  12. Id like to know when anyone sees this new show. I can't figure out how to find out
  13. @scubadoo97 I plan to get some gift certificates and study Costco prime beef as soon as my freezers have some space. I called a Costco near me , the one Id plan to use and asked about the needle issues as I plan to do SV. I can't recall what they said re : doing all the meat so I won't go there. but they said they would be happily to pack for me on the spot any meat I might want w/o the needling. enough customers have asked for this in my area ( MA ) that they are glad to do it. check first. they actually answered my call and connecters me to the butcher shop.
  14. I have the feeling that much of the book and such might be funded by some on the team that are very wealthy that's a neutral statement and if so , I congratulate them for their work BTW study chair . no ?
  15. I also have seen his shows they were first class and very authentic. remember a particular cabbage and fontina soup he treated all the people he met w a great deal of respect no matter what their ' walks of life ' were
  16. I try ti go for ' wraps ' some of the best Ive ever had are from FT's
  17. @Smithy ' the best way to shell pecans ' my sister used to send me pecans from Tx many gathered from the town square i.e. very fresh they should be cracked from the ends not the middle their are piston like nut-crackers that do this well i have one just like this note the adjustment on the R for the size of the nut
  18. GreenBells w Zoooks. possibly w celery stalks.
  19. Amazon , unusually , has been fairly good about this refund when a lower pice churns up with in a certain time after purchase a bit surprising these days. Ive thought about the price decrease and my fingers are sort of crossed as my ships tomorrow the Original MC was really revolutionary but had broad appeal : many people cook and several libraries got the Large Tome. Im guessing significantly less bake. maybe demand was low for this reason ? so price dropped as it should ? I can't imagine the MC group not coming out w a MB @ hoe though.
  20. FB was purchased at a fantastic deal including free shipping to my basement ( ed.: make sure your Free Sipping does not mean Your Door ! ) for the purpose of helping me defrost FA every couple of years in the past the defrost involved moving the contents of FA into very heavy plastic garbage bags and placing the bags outside when it was 10 - 20 F outside for a day or two. Now FB is more or less full but with the Best Stuff ! working of the Best Stuff ion FA to make room for St.P's Day's On-Sale point cut CB hopefully as good as last years from Stop&Shop no room for even one 57 cents/lb turkey.
  21. do they explain how lowering the pressure considerably for such a relatively short time accomplishes this ? I can understand , in a theoretical way , how a vacuum , when released might speed up pickling i.e. the pickling solution then enters the cucumber etc when the pressure returns ....
  22. if your bread tastes good yet has this sort of top[ another option is croutons for the top slice.
  23. @sartoric thank you for sharing.
  24. Fresh Squeezed ? Frozen ' 17 ?
  25. what exactly did they call the iceberg ' dish ? ' did you send it back ?
