  1. Not a Modernist person, but I would be interested in knowing more about this technique. Some explanation perhaps? 🙏
  2. Sometimes I leave parmesan in the fridge for a long long time. DH cannot grind it on a hand grater. I have a Cuisinart Custom 11 which was purchased in the early 1990s with a ton of blades and attachments. The work bowl is softer plastic than the rest of the processor, and I eventually destroyed two workbowls (where the eyes snap the workbowl to the base) in trying to grate or chop the cheese. Unfortunately it is no longer possible to buy a new workbowl from Cuisinart, so I bought one from China via Amazon. The workbowl doesn't fit properly when new, and none of the old assembly parts fit either, so I had to buy new assembly parts to fit the new workbowl (several hundred dollars). Also I think the plastic for the new workbowl is softer than the original workbowl. In any event, it took next to no time before the eyes on that workbowl had enlarged too. So now I have lots of parts for the Cuisinart Custom 11 but it's unusable. I'm trying to gather the courage to find a new food processor, or at least a new solution for really hard cheese. @weinooconvinced me to buy a Moulinex Mouli-Julie which works well on cheese which is not really hard. Any ideas? P.S. When I solve the food processor problem I will give away the parts for the Custom 11; PM me if you'd like me to let you know when I get that far.

    Yes, I have one of those @AlaMoi. Even that colour. Perhaps you recommended it previously? 😂

  5. Hello @Sdogg. That's a fine looking meal. And it smells just right! Folks are usually friendly here too. Welcome.
  6. Me too. I have been cooking with okra for a few years because it grows commonly around here, and I've been feeding friends and neighbours with the results. But, I have no idea what Cajun food properly tastes like. The other day I realized that many of those folks have been eating Southern food all their lives. No one has said a word to me. But still. 😜
  7. @rotuts, I'd like to avoid Amazon if I can. Thanks.

  15. Bonjour Michel. There are lots of friendly people here on eGullet, so jump right in. I'm looking forward to learning more about you. Bienvenue!
  16. Yes, please. Photos of the dishes you make will be appreciated!
  17. Thanks, @BonVivant, for another fabulous voyage!
  18. @lindag, this would be @Tropicalsenior's link to her Sunday meat buns from the bread topic.
  19. @Chris Hennes, from Le Chat Noir, you had roasted carrots. The dish looks very interesting. Can you tell me more about it?
  20. No. I'll take Door #2.
  21. Yes, @Alex, the fish has been frozen all along. It is raw.
  22. I've unearthed some very old vacuum-sealed fish. Coupla years. Is there any way to use this in an edible way?
  23. Yes, @DesertTinker has the right items!
  24. Put masking tape over the light switch, Jo. Or this. Edited to add that I used to have a switch protector which fit over half of a double switch, so about 1.25" wide.
