Made this and it was way better than I could have imagined. I have a recipe that I used from ATK t hat I used that can PM if anyone wants it.

Anyone have \recipe for a meatless congee: I'm not vegetarian. I'm looking for something to make for breakfast (I intensely dislike oatmeal). Chicken broth, soft boiled egg, bok choy; something along that line. I

My problem with lists is not being able to read my own handwriting these days.

I generally buy yams because I find they have more flavor. Right now the ones in my store are huge! Those I got yesterday are more than 2 pounds each.

I tried several version/brands of pickled onions and THESE completely blew me away.

This sweet chili sauce can be used as a dipping sauce for spring rolls and fried foods as well as a marinade for roast chicken, beef, lamb or pork. You can also use it as a spread on your meat and vegetables in addition to using it as an ingredient for salad dressings. I mainly use it rice and just about any Asian dish.

It's their sweet chili sauce.

When I ran out of this sauce this week I was reminded how indispensable it is for my rice. Of course it's good on just about anything.

Absolutely wonderful!

Yes, in this drink I just prefer vodka. i though that the vodka wads what made it a Gibson as opposed to a martini. so is it just called a vodka martini?

I've fallen for Grey Goose Vodka! I had tried many different brands just not this one. Now I enjoy a Gibson during my happy hour.

A restaurant near my office in Portland offered a great BLTCO Bacon, lettuce, tomato, cheese and onion.

I meant to say I see no way it would damage the blade.

I say yes. And I haven't needed to wash out sand in years.

The price here just jumped up $2 a dozen.

Last night's diner was a throwback to one of my Mom's that I was reminded of just recently. Slow cooked spare ribs with sauerkraut. Served with mashed potatoes. Took me back to winters in the U.{ when I was a kid.

I have several, however, I usually to put one on until it's too late.

@ElsieD You seem to have had good success with dicing onions. Mine tend to jam up under the disc. Is there a trick to this?

Yay!!! I hope you love yours as much as I do mine. The more3 I use it the more new ways I find to do my cutting. The one thing I have had a bit of an issue with dicing onions...a lot gets stuck on the blade. I also wish they'd come out with a 8mm dicing blade.

Chop up a bunch of veg. to make some really good soup.

Any luck yet?

Try twisting? Maybe hot tap water will help. Sorry you're having trouble. If nothing works,, try their Customer Service, I have and they're are very helpful.

These guys have such a bad rep although I do think they're coming into their own theses days. My late husband wouldn't touch them but I suspect that was because his mother, who was not much of a cook, had boiled the crap out of them I cam across Ina Garten's Brussels Sprouts Gratin recipe recently and it's on the menu for this week. ATK has a similar recipe that uses gruyere and shallots....I may try that.

Thanks, I appreciate hearing your POV.

I read a comment recently from a poster on the ATK website mentioning that dried beans are more and more difficult to find causing me to do a search at my nearby grocer. The stock only navy and kidney beans. I have read also that many sources now recommend using canned beans since there's no way to determine just how old the dried varieties are. A couple days ago I made US Senate Bean Soup using the dried navy beams and the result was perfect and I wouldn't change a thing. What's your take?
