  1. You drinking with the 'smores again?

    Cider

    By the way, a glass of a nice, dry cider on the rocks with an ounce of Campari in it. Just sayin'.

    Cider

    That's a good one - I pay $5 a bottle for it. I also like the Crisipin in the tall cans. (There's a Crispin produced in California that I don't like as much).
  4. I'd get 4 bottles of Rittenhouse.
  5. For those who are interested, this is "analysis paralysis," referred to in a previous post, setting in.
  6. Maybe you should buy a Cuisinart and a Kitchen Aid. Use them alternately. Let us know which one bites the dust first.
  7. Almost everything made today is a piece of junk. How long can you expect an electrical appliance for the kitchen, that costs under $50, to last? I have a 40-year old Cuisinart with a motor that still works fine. Big, thick cord. Not made in China. They just don't make 'em like that anymore.
  8. With Chef Nick Anderer at the helm, the newest restaurant from Danny Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group hits the ground running. Nick is also the head chef at Maialino, another favorite of ours; Marta is the chef and Danny's latest take on Roman cuisine, that of the Roman pizzeria, as a matter of fact. That (a Roman pizzeria) means that in addition to pizza, there's plenty of other good stuff to eat. And eat we did - 4 of us scarfed down a good portion of the menu - there wasn't anything I wouldn't have again (well, maybe the octopus, but that's just 'cause I'm sick of octopus in general). 3 pies, beer brined chicken, a bunch of apps, cocktails, wine - we were happy campers. This is the Margherita... Here's a blog post with a few more pictures... Marta, My Dear
  9. That sucker is over $100 - my guess is it ain't happening. From the manual...
  10. Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-DLC-2ABC-Mini-Prep-Processor-Brushed/dp/B0000645YM/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=http://www.amazon.com/Cuisinart-DLC-2ABC-Mini-Prep-Processor-Brushed/dp/B0000645YM&linkCode=as2&tag=egulletcom-20">$36. No analyses paralysis necessary.
  11. What if you live in a city and don't have a car?
  12. I think you should also buy some seeds and plant next year. Or bribe someone with a garden to do the same,
  13. Any of the piccatas have lemon in the sauce, right? Chicken, veal, etc. I like to use this thing called google occasionally. It works well. http://allrecipes.com/recipes/fruits-and-vegetables/fruits/citrus/lemons/
  14. They were probably driving a Humvee around Berkeley.
  15. "Kinda silly" being the operative words. I think if you can afford to drive a car around Berkeley, you can afford the Ronco dehydrator. http://www.amazon.com/Ronco-FD1005WHGEN-5-Tray-Electric-Dehydrator/dp/B000G20TCQ/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=http://www.amazon.com/Ronco-FD1005WHGEN-5-Tray-Electric-Dehydrator/dp/B000G20TCQ&linkCode=as2&tag=egulletcom-20">It's $35 on Amazon. And if rotuts is around, you can be sure he's searching for the BB&B coupon !
  16. Do you roast stuff in your engine compartment as well? http://youtu.be/c8N7fbevmRg
  17. Common? Kinda new to me.
  18. Only in Berkeley, folks, only in Berkeley.
  19. Wouldn't the dried be the best in this case, Rob?
  20. My wife spent many years in ABQ, and still has family there - though most of them have fled. They always cook (roast) and freeze. Here are a couple of sites: http://www.hatchchilefest.com/chile_facts.php http://www.hatch-chile.com/ Don't forget our own Rob Connoley or gfron1...he's probably an expert. http://curiouskumquat.com/
  21. I always think in this order: Coffee Water Grinder After all that, technique and the coffeemaker become important.
  22. Yay, restaurant owners.
  23. Wouldn't it have been nice if he told us how finely the coffee was ground? How fresh it was? What type of water he was using?
  24. I prefer listening to Elvis Costello while I'm doing my pour over.
  25. I need an explanation of the title of this thread.
