  1. i'm curious about your cauliflower. I bought a nice, large head a couple days ago and was planning to make a new recipe but discovered it was so tedious and full of odd ingredients that I had to change my mind. Now I don't know what to do with it. Yours looks tempting; did you season with anything other than S&P?

    Aperol

    Thank you so much for responding, I have many to try now!!!

    Aperol

    I just purchased a bottle of this last night on a whim. Now I don't know what to do with it. Can you suggest any simple cocktails that I could make with it? (I don't have access where I live to many exotic liqueurs).
  4. I bake my own bread all the time and just love trying new and different recipes (especially Rye) and I make lots more than I can use so I slice up my loaves after they've cooled sufficiently and bag them (in bags from KAF) and store in the freezer; if you press out as much air as possible they keep quite well.
  5. Indeed you are right. That's what happens when one doesn't read all of the thread. Andi's post was more helpful than mine.
  6. You may want to try King Arthur Flour's recipe for 100% whole wheat bread, it is actually their most popular recipe so, clearly, it turns out well for most bakers. It's here: http://www.kingarthurflour.com/recipes/100-whole-wheat-bread-for-the-bread-machine-recipe
  7. thank you, somehow I missed that. Only had mine for a short time - at least that's my excuse.
  8. I was in the same position recently; considering replacing my BSO with the CSO and decided it was worth it for the steam function although I was worried about losing the quarter sheet pan capability. Well I went for it and I must say I haven't missed it at all. It's worth doing if only for the much improved toast! In all fairness, though, I will admit I do miss the pre-settings for 'warm' and 'reheat', those were particularly handy for leftovers and cold pizza.
  9. I think most folk here will be taking a big pass on Labor Day cookouts/picnics, etc. Forecast is for 59ºF (15C for youse Canadians) and possible thunderstorms. More like soup-making weather. Fall came earlier than usual this year, it was 39ºF (3.8C) last night.
  10. They certainly LOOK tasty, though.
  11. I ran across this recipe this morning and thought it could be ideal for the Air Fryer: Oven Fried Chicken
  12. I use this one. I like it much better than any Pam products, it leaves no residue.
  13. Inside. Was heating a plate of leftovers. When I opened the oven the (Potrmerion) plate was in two pieces. should have posted in the 'I won't do that again thread.
  14. I saw her on one show where she tried to mount the cameraman! She thinks she's funny, I don't think she has any common sense anymore. No one want to see behavior like that.
  15. I have experience that when we've rented vacation homes. Always take a couple of good, sharp knives. Renters will abuse the knives without any regard at all.
  16. I made the mistake of heating of a plateful of food on a piece of very expensive dinnerware in my CSO...I did not know that it got so hot that it would crack in two.
  17. I cannot bear it if there's a fly in the house, they're disgusting and filthy and I don't want them landing on anything I'll be touching. As someone else mentioned above, I cannot cook in a kitchen if there's a fly around, I have to get rid of it. I have screens on the windows and doors and I use them! And don't get me started on mosquitoes!
  18. Worst show is any featuring Paula Dean or her sons!!!
  19. Where I live the Cracker Barrel is actually pretty darned good. Of course we don't have many of the restaurants in big cities to compare it with. I like good comfort food and can find it there.
  20. Have you never had a rotisserie chicken from Costco? The ones I get here at my store are amazingly good, no other can compare. And, yes, refrigeration does take its toll. When served still warm the flavor is infinitely better. Of course that is not always possible. Good to know KerryB's trick to reheat.
  21. My 7-in-1 IP is arriving this afternoon. I need to go to the store and pick up a few items. I'd like my first venture to be Borscht but I don't have a tried and true recipe on me. Is there anyone who still makes this dish? I haven't had it in years but used to be able to get it a wonderful deli near my work.
  22. I own the Breville Smart Oven XL and have used for several years. It's really a great addition to any kitchen as it does many things so much faster than a standard oven. I replaced my BSO with a Cuisinart Steam Oven only because of the toast, the Breville does not do toast well. I also wanted to have the steam function. If you don't care much about toast, the BSO is great to have.
  23. I did cave in and order the IP (latest version without Bluetooth - $119 at Amazon US). The next morning I woke up to no water in the house! The pump for my well had died in the night -$1500 for a replacement! My IP should be here tomorrow morning and will all the commotion haven't had time to decide yet what my first recipe will be. Someone mentioned a KFC knock-off but I can't find a recipe. Anyone?
  24. Yes, I agree. But I also find that it's easy to go from underdone to overcooked in no time.
