I too found a source but my bank manager nixed the whole idea.
Yeah, I bought one jar. The checker, however, maintained that those who buy it swear by it.
it was $8.99 per 24 oz. jar. I hope it's worth it.

After looking for it for a very long time I finally found Rao's pasta sauce in one of the grocers in town!
I've read so much about it but was never able to find a source anywhere nearby; it's good to have found a source.

I have been proofing bread on the counter since Methuselah was the top so if the steam function doesn't work for proofing it's not a big deal. Still the function's there so I have to assume it works somewhere for some people under some conditions. Anyone have any success?
I only tried it once and had no success. I did it only out of curiosity because I already have a Bread Proofer
and it works perfectly.

Years ago I bought lovely electric tea kettle, it's stored in the pantry...I don't drink tea either.
I don't know why I bought it. Maybe because it was so pretty?

IIRC, for toast the rack goes in the middle position looking something like this: --___--

Baked potatoes are one of the few things I do not enjoy from the CSO.
Can you tell us what it is that you don't like?

My toast tray has gotten kind of scratched up so I'm going to order a new one. It's listed as a replacement part on the Cuisinart website. I might order another tray as well.
Thanks for mentioning this, I just found it on their website and ordered my replacement.

CANNOT, CANNOT relinquish my BSO.
Someone here reported that they had stacked the two ovens successfully.

Toast alone will make you throw out everything else in your kitchen to make room for your new CSO.
I agreed with this until my crumb tray became scorched and mottled in places.
I did as someone suggested here and covered it with foil.
However, my toast is still rather uneven on the bottom.
I'm thinking of trying to get a new crumb tray from them.
Has no one else had a problem with a blemished crumb tray? Surely I can't be the only one.
But let me clarify, the toast is the CSO is still WAY better than it was in my BSO where it always tasted as if it were baked.

Well I resisted with every fibre of my being but apparently I was sending out some sort of sigbal that I was only kidding about no space for a CSO. Today one showed up at my house and is now sitting in its box on my dining room table while I stare at my kitchen in dismay and wonder where in the hell I'm going to put it. Ingratitude is not my style so some how, some way I am going to have to find a place for it to live and thrive. Let the games begin. I know a few members who will be more than happy to welcome me to the Darkside. You know who you are
Anna, I don't know what your kitchen looks like but I ended up putting mine in a corner (with cabinets above) and I pull it forward when I use the steam function (only occasionally).
It's the same site I used for my BSO that is now residing on a shelf in the garage.

KFC now has spicy chicken and Carla Hall has her own brand of Nashville hot chicken.
I haven't tried either although I do tend to like things spicy. I just may pick up some KFC spicy next time I'm in town.

Anyone from 50 years ago who looked at these photos here would think that you people eat like Kings!

Is there a source for these?
I have purchased some chicken empanadas in the past and I'm wondering if there are any in the grocery stores, maybe frozen?

I've gotten lazier over the years and not as picky as I used to be.
Now I clean as I go UNTIL dinner's over and I frequently leave the dirty dishes/pots until morning.

I like to drink a lot of iced tea in hot weather and since it's just for me I use the Luzianne K-cups Just a tiny amount of sugar and lots of ice and I'm all set in just a few minutes.

I am picking up a new (used) freezer Sunday afternoon; a 21-foot upright. Planning to sell the little one.
You may want to hold onto that small freezer and add it with the new, it's scary how fast they fill up.

Was it too icky to give to your dogs?

For the past couple years I've been using the big (2-inch square) ice cubes made in a silicone tray.
Nice because they don't dilute my drink as fast and they last longer.

I use a bread machine to mix and knead it on the dough cycle, remove it and pop it into a plastic bag and put it in the fridge for at least 24 hours, often longer - 2 to 3 days. It is as close to foolproof as any "artisan" bread.
For a more complete list of possible additives and how they affect the dough, there is this page on the Cookistry website.
Thanks for this, I want to try this just as you've described.

I keep my brown sugar(s) in a plastic Lock n Lock container which doesn't seem to be air right.
seems like every time I open it (which isn't often) my sugar has dried out quite a bit. Then I re-soak my sugar bear and seal it in again. But I'm really glad to read about the plastic bag/water trick because its only a matter of time until I'll need it.

Funny the use of the word 'neat' to describe a drink. I've always wondered how that came about.

The small town next to me has a McD's and I sometimes stop there after my hair appointments.
I always order the chicken sandwich (with lettuce, tomato, onion and mayo) and a small bag o' fries.
It's actually very good.

What's Your Favorite Bottled Pasta Sauce?

Posted · Edited by lindag (log)
You know, I think I need to go look at the jar again, maybe it was only 15.5 oz. I assumed it was the 24 oz. size because I thought there were only that size and the 32 oz..
Although it's not important, I just thought I should clarify.
i just looked, it IS the 24 oz. size.
