Lots of rosés these days: ' The 2024 "Camille" is a pretty, very pale pink/orange color with aromas of wild strawberry, raspberry, rose and citrus, with a hint of stone fruits as well. The palate is light and elegant with subtle berry fruits, a hint of citrus and stone, and has nice density and length. This is a light and lovely rosé for all year enjoyment, sipped by itself or with grilled fish, white meats, salade Niçoise and mild cheeses - and it's a fabulous value! Just over $15!

According to the manual for my model (NP-NWC10):

I haven't tried this, but it's always available. Just FreshDirect Meatball and Meatloaf Beef/Pork Mix, Raised w/o Antibiotics

My inherited cooker has the umami setting, which I have never used. I'll give it a try next time.

Where is P. T. Barnum when we need him?

And, they are opening a Dishoom here. Soon, I believe. (There's already a Hawksmoor, which I like a lot).

From Boston Magazine: The Top Restaurants in Provincetown Right Now The mishpucha get two mentions, which is nice.

While I don't have any recs for Chinese/Indian, our two most recent trips (including one less than a year ago) included standout meals at BRAT Shoreditch, Noble Rot (both in Bloomsbury and Mayfair), and St. John (both the flagship and Bread & Wine). We also had quite a fancy meal at Planque. And fun Sunday roasts at both Hawksmoor and The Harwood Arms.

Similar to the one I have, which is the NP-NWC10. I've used it to cookveggies/fish in addition to the rice, with no ill effects. It really does get a little nit picky with all of these variations on a theme.

My guess is the flat-topped version is a bit easier to store on a shelf or in a pantry, as the power cord can be stored inside the unit. On the top of the line Zo I inherited, the power cord is attached and does not retract into the machine, which makes it a little more annoying to put away. On the Zo I originally purchased, the power cord retracts into the unit. Why all the differences - I have no idea!

It looks as if on the flat-topped version the power cord is removable from the body of the unit.

As mentioned previously, some good melons and stone fruits at TJ's here: Dulcinea KANDY

Last night, with dinner: Sweet spot, at just around $15 a bottle. Rosé of cabernet franc. Domaine Stéphane Guion. The Borgueils he bottles are also a favorite here.

Spain-inspired, braised onions and potatoes, with pimentón and saffron. As a side dish for... Crispy-skinned roasted chicken thigh (thank whoever keeps my old CSO working!), potato thing from the 1st picture, sautéed escarole. Plum and nectarine crisp..or cobbler...crispler? cobblisp? No complaints yet.

You can dry brine it for 72 hours, if need be. No. Cook it via a traditional method (roast, pan sauté, braise, etc.); Judy Rogers wasn't sous-viding!
