So, then you would purposefully make soft cabbage? With the same ingredients (bacon, onion) too? How much of the tough rib would you remove?

Can this tender/crisp dish be frozen? (I'm preparing for some down time, so I want to make a bunch of stuff now and then freeze it.)

@patti, your guests must have been delighted. I can understand folks hanging around on the day you deliver meals! What is that cabbage dish called? Your explanation and pictures are so straigtforward, that I think I could make that dish. Only, mine would have to be smaller. 🙄 That's why the name of the dish will help me find a smaller recipe. 😄 The texture wouldn't survive being frozen, would it?

I'm intrigued. Could you provide instructions for this Butter-poached (SV) pimenton shrimp please?

With your fingers then.

Thanks for that recipe, @Maison Rustique. Looks Delish. How did you eat it? With spoons? Or crackers? Or cheese?

We opened the Apple Pie panettone last night. Just divine! For four people, I used about half the panettone. I offered additional slices but all but one demurred. They did scrape up all the bits stuck on the paper though.

I didn't have much success with the basic A4 pan. I too was waiting for the accessories, to see if I could make the tool useful (to me). Methinks it would be good for someone who lives in a single room or dorm, or other small place without a big kitchen. The university here has a place where departing students can hand off their stuff which incoming students then wouldn't have to buy. Edited to add: Which I could do. I'm going to keep my eye on ebay for a little while

@Maison Rustique, one of those links from @donk79 was selling the extra deep pan.

Might.

@Shelby, you are so funny. Thank you for that recipe. I'll let you know if I keep up the courage . . .

@Shelby, I hate broccoli. However, after looking at your broccoli salad all these years, I'm gonna try it. Please tell me what goes in there (with approximate amounts) please.

Last year I fed my guests unadulterated slices of Three Chocolates panettone. They said (and I thought) "Outstanding."

Howdy @keneru. What kind of food or events do you do? Where in the city are you? Once upon a time, I lived in San Francisco. But that was rather a long time ago. Welcome (back) to eGullet.

@gfweb, on Ebay it seems asking for A4 box accessories ends up with Audi parts or British paper. "afourbox" gets converted into "four box accessories" ! Suggestions?

@Smithy, just looking at that thing makes me certain that everything fried in it will add 15 grams of fat for each. 😜

For next year, https://www.gouter.ca/ There's still hope. Last year something went slightly wrong with one of my panettones and Goûter sent me one gratis for Valentine's. IIRC it had strawberries. Délicieuse!

Oooh, I'm going to revisit this page a few times! Bravo @chromedome ! Many years ago my MIL used to make a cookie extravaganza. It provided DAYS of delicious nibbling. Sorry to not be a member of your family. 😂 Brilliant @Duvel ! What on earth did your inlaws do before you arrived? Come to think of it, FOUR Other Families are going to do this again in the next FOUR days? I would love to have been able to participate in the making of that soup . . . 🙄 Thank you friends for your lovely pictures.

I will use some for the next bread loaf and see. Thanks.

I got an email yesterday puporting to come from FedEx. Not a lot of telltale spam details, so maybe it was legit. I thought perhaps they were going to ask for duty. Turned out to be a piece of spam, but not until DH and I had emailed back and forth trying to determine same!

That was a joyous laugh, @blue_dolphin !

@AlaMoi, King Arthur Bakers Hotline just told me NOT to use Diastatic Malt Powder in place of Malted Milk powder. She said that it would not convey the same malty taste. Talking with her, I wasn't at all clear what the Diastatic Malt Powder was supposed to do.

@AlaMoi, thanks. The Malted Milk concrete never softened, so I tossed it. I may need more bread early next week. I have 506 grams of bread flour, white whole wheat and semolina flours. How much Diastatic Malt Powder should I use?

Please report how freeze dried ice cream balls taste, @Smithy !

Previously I have used 19g of Malted Milk powder in my bread recipe. I opened the jar tonight and it's full of rocks of said powder. I put 19g of water with a lump of Malted Milk concrete and we'll see how it goes in 10 minutes or so. Can I substitute Diastatic Malt Powder (which I have never used) and which doesn't expire until the middle of January 2026?
