I'm definitely jealous. ☹️

Look at all that lobster! https://www.cbc.ca/player/play/video/9.6821176

A gift = uploading. Nice.

My Anova Oven is revolting inside.

@teonzo !! Hello !!

@Shel_B, on my computer I have a tag "Spice.Blending" from whence I got the suggestions. I too purchased The Spice Companion (from @blue_dolphin's recommendation?). It's a fascinating book. Most of my cookbooks are purchased used from https://www.thriftbooks.com/

Here's some of what's in my notes https://spicestoryteller.com/the-art-of-sous-vide-infusions-flavoring-oils-and-spirits/ https://www.thespruceeats.com/what-is-baharat-spice-2355809 https://afrifoodnetwork.com/articles/spices-for-jollof-rice/ Flavours of the Spice Coast, Mrs K.M. Mathew (eG-friendly Amazon.com link)

Pizza (homemade) and several tasting wines for us and a couple friends.

@Dejah, SpiceTrekkers said: We don't add phosphorus or potassium to our blends, but they may be present in small amounts in the spices themselves. Since the spices added to recipes represent only a tiny fraction of the total amount of ingredients, the amounts are not listed. Because most of our blends do not contain salt (aside from our zaatars, our rubs, dukkha, and, of course, our salts), there is no link for salt free blends except the direct link to our online boutique that will give your friend access to our products’ descriptions and ingredients list: https://spicetrekkers.com/en-ca/store

@Dejah, check SpiceTrekkers in Montréal. I have written to ask about their salt-free blends. Will let you know.

That looks delicious! Pardon me, but how is a smash burger different from a hamburger?

Welcome!

Welcome, @CHEFSHELLY.

Neely, those dishes look scrumptious! Do you have ideas about how the eggplant sauce was made? Was the duck leg roasted separately?

Thriftbooks finds several issues with the title "Farm Journal Complete Pie Cookbook". Can you say more about the publication date or authors?

@Smithy, I'm finding I don't know what to use it for . . .

@YvetteMT, what brand is your favourite frozen pizza? (DH and I having some medical stuff, so we're eating pre-prepared stuff and I hate, hate, hate the options from our local grocery stores).

Is this a real thing or a myth? Sous Vide Cooking: The Secret to Perfectly Cooked Risotto here

Have you told us how to make your Apple, Orange, Cranberry Chutney, @Dejah?

Looks very inviting! How did your wife make the garlic bread?

@liamsaunt, all these dinners look fabulous (and easy as pie) I'm very interesting in these sweet potato dumplings. Have a recipe, please?

This is my favourite pepper https://spicetrekkers.com/shop/spice-blends/eight-pepper-blend

I ended up refrigerating the cassoulet overnight.

If anyone else can't read the Washington Post story, please let me know. I thought their links provided a paywall-free read.

Here is an unpaywalled version of the Washington Post article about Mushroom Murder Trial in Australia. https://wapo.st/43HKmQP
