Corn cutter from Lee Valley Tools (US site) The packaging said to go and watch a one minute video which would tell you all about it. This thing is a marvel.

What delicious food! If you go back to Stars would you please ask about Ode to Vegetables which is in the Farm Showcase section. If I'm reading correctly, the vegetables will come as Tempura, with various sauces. The vegetables are no doubt chosen for their freshness. I'm really curious about what a likely selection of vegetables would be.

Hello Greg, I'm really looking forward to your posting about your discoveries! eG is a great place and you'll soon have a bunch of friends. Welcome.

We used to call them soup spoons and dessert spoons. (to differentiate)

Me thirteen.

Some eG discussion was moved. See a picture of the inside of @Tropicalsenior's wonderful banana bread. Moist! Delicious!

@Tropicalsenior, now that's dedication! Thank you!

GABA brown rice takes a LOT longer that regular brown rice. Has an earthier flavour than regular brown rice.

Hurray for the good conscience, @Duvel !

😂 My Zo bread machine no longer allows me to set the time, so it's permanently in either Daylight or Daylight Savings . . .

I unplug it in between uses. I'm not sure what it thinks the date is, but the time is right. I'm not remembering exactly whether I changed the time during Daylight/Daylight Savings. Kenneth, I can set what time I want the rice done. Although I have more than once set the rice for 6 (instead of 18:00) ! Porridge for 6 am does sound good though. @rotuts, my plug does NOT detach. @gfweb, for sound one can choose between Melody, Beep, and Mute. Begin Cooking or Set Time plays "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star". Completion of task plays "Amaryllis"

I had NO idea this scoop stood up on its own! Thanks, @rotuts

This is the display from the manual for NW-JEC10 or 18, so you see it has an Umami setting. It comes from the bottom half of page 7 of the manual:

On the Zojirushi recipe site, my model is frequently NOT listed in the "compatible" recipes. When I communicate with Zojirushi, the person always replies "the recipe was not tested with that model." If I ask about doing something else (cooking with other ingredients), so far I'm always told it might damage the machine (leave a presistent smell, the coating of the inner pot, or other things). So, in spite of having a horrendously expensive device, I mostly use it to cook brown rice (sometimes white). I wish I could understand what technically makes my rice cooker so different from other rice cookers (so I would have a better idea of what to ignore).

@rotuts I have Zojirushi Pressure Induction Heating Rice Cooker & Warmer NW-JEC10 (5.5 cup/1.0 litre). https://store.zojirushi.com/products/nwjec

Mine does. When it completes, it plays a few bars of a little song. Not very long. If I leave the rice in the cooker for longer than an hour, it will beep a note or two. My rice cooker is a fairly recent flat top, model is NW-JEC10 Are you pro- or con- little songs?

So what is this dish? (I have a cheese drawer which needs help too)

I will have chicken dry brined for 24 hours tomorrow morning. An hour or so later, I'll be having a medical procedure in my mouth, so I'm unlikely to be interested in roasted chicken tomorrow night. Can I dry brine chicken in the fridge for 48 hours, or should I plan on cooking it tomorrow? If I must cook the dry brined chicken, can I sous vide it? I have some remaining clarified butter which I could put in the sous vide bag, in case that's a good idea. Thoughts? @rotuts @JoNorvelleWalker

When dry brining chicken, does one first apply a marinade (or fish sauce)?

Upton Tea ships tea in resealable light/air/moisture-proof ziplocks, and a small quantity can be purchased for travelling purposes. Also these tea bags (with stick) are perfect!

@Smithy, I have a tea stash for just this purpose. If you're interested, et me know where I should post my response.

Inside or outside?

Do you clean your Anova the same way?

How did you apply the rubbing alcohol?

Looks delicious! How do you make your garlic bread croutons?
