  1. John's obit in the NY Times...unpaywalled click.
  2. Sad news - RIP.
  3. Before or after they’ve been used in treatment?

    Dinner 2023

    Greek style fisherman's stew. Leeks, onions, potatoes, shallots, garlic, celery, red pepper, carrots, lemon, lemon zest, Greek oregano. Fish added at the end - wild Alaskan halibut and wild striped bass. Last night's Hanukkah Rigatoni Amatriciana. (Almost Roscioli style, but with less cheese).
  6. Make your brother-in-law's life easier with these (eG-friendly Amazon.com link)... Better than what's in most cans, no openers needed.
  7. You know what might be life changing? Having the dish, prepared for you, at a restaurant overlooking the Amalfi Coast.
  8. Timely, as I just pulled a nice shot with my Breville Infuser and George Howell's Alchemy beans, roasted 5 days ago. Since I hadn't used the machine in a while, and certainly not since replacing the burrs on Rocky, it took 2 lousy shots before a fully drinkable one. But that's all part of the fun!
  9. When I mean by one and done is that I'll never go back to the Wegmans. Once was enough, and now I'm done. I prefer shopping at all the different vendors, and spreading the joy around.
  10. I can't keep up. Yes.
  11. Whatever this means, I agree.
  12. Those won't necessarily fit in a V60. @JoNorvelleWalker = you want the same size as your V60 dripper, no? I buy bleached...and I've never had to choose between tabbed or untabbed... Since this is my 10th package out of 10, time to reorder! I don't pay more than $.04 or $.05 per filter.
  13. It is of no use to me, really. Unless I am desiring some fish from Japan. I'll take my local, hipster butcher over Wegmans. This, too, is a double decker store. Produce sections rarely impress me; I'll continue to use the farmer's market (though yesterday you could sense the end of everything except root vegetables), Essex Market and Union Market (which carries a lot of the bitter greens I like). So basically, one and done for me.
  14. For quite some time now, I've only used the real deal V60s or Kalitta filters. I've tried any number of "alternative" filters to brew pour overs, none of which I find satisfactory.
  15. More like a brisket cut?
  16. Taking over a space which previously housed a KMart, it's in the historic Wanamaker Building at Astor Place... I checked it out yesterday, specifically to see the specialty fish market, described as follows... It was mostly impressive (where the Japanese fish guys were working), though in the area where one can purchase the same fish one can purchase most anywhere (Atlantic salmon, swordfish, etc), it was less so. I was wondering if @KennethT has checked it out yet, as it's closer to his abode than to mine?
  17. They'll be fine just like this!
  18. Sorry - I do get antsy/cranky on football Sundays!
  19. Are they pre cooked, or frozen raw.? Either way, I imagine sous vide will give you the most correct and even result.
  20. Not a bad town for a meet up!
  21. Apparently, you'd already ordered the grinder before you asked only this:
  22. I'd go back! If you haven't been to Gerald's Bar, it's quite worthy!

    Dinner 2023

    Working on the non-paella style Spanish rice, to be more like some of the rice we had in Spain. Here, with mushrooms, decent attempt. Round bone shoulder lamb chop, pan cooked, with some sliced off for Significant Eater's plate. Pan jus. Roasted Brussels sprouts.
  24. You have a lot of other things to take care of in your life, @Duvel! When that auto coffee maker gives up the ghost, try a Techni Vorm... It looks so much cooler!
