  1. I have not done SV via steam . its gong to take quite a bit longer to get to temp due to the density of the heat ( steam off the boil ) vs water . so it might be fine for shorter cooks , like fish . 48 hr corned beef @ 142 F ? maybe , maybe not. I personally feel good quality bags ( vacumsavers ) are fine to use.

    @gulfporter wow. looks fabulous. lucky you !
  3. Im guessing there is a blend of SV use. Its what's for dinner and , then its what's on sale , and thus 12 , 24 , 28 hours in bulk. whole Fz turkeys . bags of corned beef . flap meat on sale , and the like; the later comes by several times a year and former , SV is part of your weekly cooking. might be more than you want to do every day.

    @Ann_T another outstanding plate of food.
  5. @curls what a fine idea I take it the inner side of the chicken does not brown that much , but cooks as a result of the KJ's temp but the potatoes roast w some of the chicken drippings bet both are tasty .

    Mixing bowls

    @Margaret Pilgrim except for here : and many other places in the video . can't say what he paid for them and , I myself have some very special knives Ive worked up to them over 50 years and taken care of each group before these I had not thought of my current Watanabe's as a conceit . but I can now see them viewed that way if all there was to them was their price .

    @OlyveOyl Nice ! Im guessing that version is not from FR and https://www.edehillerin.fr/en/flat-bottom-bowl/1263-1649-bassine-fond-plat-inox.html#/173-choix_diametre_cm-16 no matter . you're pics suggest the bottom reflection w the side might b e curved ! items like these are items one might acquire for their ' feel ' , which adds to their price. some times significantly an apro : CuisiPro has sets of measuring spoons , and measuring cups https://www.cuisiprousa.com/products/cuisipro-silver-stainless-steel-stainless-steel-measuring-cups-and-spoon-set-two-sets-747143 they certainly cost quite a bit more than when I got them way back when the differential back then was not so bad. pleased I got them back then

    good points. however , in the video , the corners don't seem to bother that chef. Ive plenty of rounded bot0m SS bowls . though Id try one of these. after all , the design seems to be popular in France. but the price , probably for a small bowl , doesn't seem to be worth it.
  12. @Senior Sea Kayaker your indoor garden is impressive fine looking cilantro . I was never able to get indoor cilantro to do very well so Kudos your way.

    Dinner 2024

    in the past Ive been using Tj's Vindaloo lamb fz curry , on a bed of lightly micro's spinach . w kimchi and sauerkraut . this time , I used pre-cooked turkey breasts ( whole TB's being on sale recently ) the TB's were split off the backs , and individually cooked in the CSO and the AirFryer , to see if there was any difference . the CSO'd were a bit moister , as one might suspect. the TB's were cooled , vac'd and Fz. using the 3 cup induction fuzzy w one heaping cup basmati , appropriate water to cook the rice. the turkey was chopped and added to this curry concoction : https://www.mayakaimal.com/products/madras-curry-indian-simmer-sauce/ this bread nicely complements the various Patak jars I have the result : added the usual chopped red and green onion , dried cranberries and Tj's chopped walnuts . a very nice dinner , and easy to make. using the Patak and MK easily adds variety to this type of meal.
  14. over here : https://forums.egullet.org/topic/155077-your-daily-sweets-what-are-you-making-and-baking-2017-–/page/173/ and a mighty fine baking thread , there was a video : https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x88g4kr and the Chef had these style SS bowls : they are tapped as you see . are they available anywhere ? Amazon USA ? Id like to try them. thank you
  15. Bummer. visited my Local this AM : no walnuts , chopped or not chopped. forgot to ask , so gave them a call : they were surprised : due November 15th. so if you use them regularly , and see a pack or 8 on your Local's shelves : snap them up. now I have to look up " Nuts : what's tasty and not so bad for you " Bummer.

    Lunch 2024

    I had some spinach and some Campari tomatoes what were getting a little tired : kimchi and Tj's sauerkraut w come citrus miso Tj's dried tart cherries , and some chopped walnuts added some mini shredded wheat freshly ground black pepper ( Penzey's Extra bold ) turned out well . I should have added the MSW to a bowl and mixed them into the salad. they absorb some of the salad Jus that way . mix them up right at serving so they retain 90 % of their crunch. over all , a very nice rescue this was.
  17. @liamsaunt very nice . and thank you for those menu's.
  18. @Pete Fred IF is one of my favorite deserts. thank you for that video ref. I love the work bowls the chef uses. Unfortunately , I don't have any.
  19. another miso from Tj's : it has a similar salt content to the white mozo and citrus flavors along w a little sweetness . it might be nice on grilled // broiled salmon and such .

    Breakfast 2024

    soft scrambled eggs w white miso ( Tj's ) Impressive you say ? OK, it was very tasty . white miso has a very interesting taste . doesn't taste like tofu at all . it is quite salty , but it seems a little goes a long way. and it has subtle staying power . try it .

    Dinner 2024

    Ive posted this dish ( as a style ) before . a few differences : Tj's bagged spinach , a very generous amount , on the plate. I leave the stems on , and do not chop the spinach when I use this spinach for the Soups , I pinch off the stems ( dont pull out too the stems, on the leaf ) as in that dish I like the spinach crunch less , a bit of crunch here is fine. micro 30 - 40 seconds , to get a light wilt. I take kimchi and sauerkraut , dont drain too much , and chop. there is some juice on the bottom that goes well w the spinach . This time I added perhaps a Tsp of Tj's white miso . its quiet salty , but it was enough to taste the miso in the kimchi// kraut mixture . that get too room temp , and is distributed around the outer spinach. Miro Tj's Lamb Vindalloo. that goes in the center. rice first , then lamb. garnishes : green onion ( window ) red onion , chopped walnuts ( Tj's ) and dried cranberries ( TJ's ) that'sit . and of course , an Ice cold Hoponius Union. this dish can take on more onion , and more walnuts and cranberries . Nice Indian-ish dish , easy to make , and not requiring take out. try it .
  22. some time ago , I used to make steel cut oats for breakfast , with milk , not water that was the reason I got my first fuzzy (rice and more) cooker. I saw these @ Tj's ant thought Id give them a try. N.B.: rolled oats , not steel cut. followed the directions , 1/2 cup ingredients , and 3/4 cup milk , not water . hot @ two minutes . however , the bowl needs longer too ' steep ' than indicated. tomorrow Ill just leave it in the micro for a bit , and reheat if needed. note the ingredients : no added semi-lethal ingredients ! and , as you might guess pretty tasteless w/o amendments . I can imagine what this would taste like plain , made w water. I added some Tj's honey , a knob of butter , some dried cranberries and eventually some fresh blueberries : I added my personal salt , and this needs salt. but its nice ConAgra is not dosing your salt. over all , out of the pouch , this need a lot of help. ' Healthy ' usually needs help. but its chilly now , and hot cereal is pretty nice . and this is very easy to prepare. and sticks with you.
  23. Im interested in trying a few of the above rubs. as they are whole spice blends, and thus not necessarily evenly distributed does on just try their best to get a uniform mix , then take out what they plan top use at a time then grind them and use the result ? if you used these whole spice blends , what's your method // dish ? thank you .
  24. @YvetteMT looking forward to your reviews and seeing how this turns out. like the idea of some A1 for this.
  25. @OlyveOyl that's what I thought. maybe some ice cream , just in case the ice cream , on some nice enough cake . just to be sure .
