@Shelby, such a lot of glorious looking treats! Up to your usual style, I see. Can you tell us a bit more about @ElsieD's Moose Farts and @ChocoMom's Apple Snickers Salad?
Good luck to your family, @Maison Rustique - hope the weather improves.
@chromedome, it's always a joy to read your writing.
@Tropicalsenior thanks for your good wishes; they are fully returned 😀
Welcome to a fine place, @mazza.
@Katie Meadow, yours is a Christmas to envy.
@gulfporter, I've been contemplating your marvellous Christmas story for a couple days now.
Such a lot of good friends . . .

@MaryIsobel – I
Iced almonds:
<snip>
Tried out a new recipe with mincemeat – mincemeat and puff pastry pinwheels:
These were delicious – though the bottoms got a little dark because I was trying to get the pastry nice and browned. But they tasted great – Jessica found some jars of Tiptree mincemeat which I’d never tried before and it was lovely. Much better than the other brands I’ve tried.
Kim, everything looks so lovely! Bet it all tastes great too.
Could you provide recipes for Iced Almonds and Mincemeat Pinwheels?

I'm interested in doing a boeuf bourguignon in the APO. Any suggestions as to method, temp, and time?
Edited to add: I have 2.5 lbs of beef chuck roast.

@rotuts, I have a pile of insert stuff for the 6 quart. Do you recommend buying it all again for the 3 quart? Why?
-
Done! Thanks, @FauxPas.

@rotuts, I've been reading cookbooks for the Instant Pot and have developed an interest in the 3 quart. If you hear of any deals, please post here!

I have a few Diana Henry's but not Simple. I think I have Ottolenghi's Simple. You don't suppose I could try mashing the books together? 🤣
@blue_dolphin, yes please recipe.

@blue_dolphin, I have just been tracking down things to do with red cabbage! Did you post from whence the Caraway and Blackberry Slaw came?

Today I have a Rohan duck from d'Artagnan. There are tips of feathers stuck in the breast. Is there a fast way to get rid of those pokey bits?

I did the artichokes at about 250ºF for a while, then I put @ElainaA's (defrosted) slow cooked cherry tomatoes and garlic on it for another little while. Some of the edges of the artichoke hearts were papery (so unpleasant to chew). Am not sure whether I'd had the frozen stuff too long.
Will try again and report back.

OH NO!!!

Also, check out sous vide.
Discussions on egullet.org date into the early 2000s where some later-famous folks tested their ideas. You will find many discussions (which resulted in what those cooks wrote about in their books) here:with more recent discussions https://forums.egullet.org/forum/3-cooking/Check out these discussion threads — lots of pictures! (Most current thread is on top).Douglas Baldwin was a scientist at the University of Colorado (I think) which is evident in the presentation of the rules and analyses for food safety and cooking sous vide in his book SOUS VIDE FOR THE HOME COOK. He can't write an index worth beans, but the book is one of my standbys. This book has lots of recipies and is a good resource to start. The egullet story threads contain many exchanges with Douglas Baldwin.Nathan Myhrvold, a former VP at Microsoft, left to attend culinary school and is the principal author of Modernist Cuisine, a very expensive set of cookbooks which discuss the application of scientific research principles and new techniques and technology to cooking. The Wikipedia article mentions his research on egullet.org.The scientific understanding of what happens to food when it cooks was popularized Harold McGee author of ON FOOD AND COOKING in 1984 (revised in 2004).Some great books:THE COMPLETE SOUS VIDE COOKBOOK by Chris McDonald, a former restaurateur from Toronto, CanadaSOUS VIDE AT HOME by Lisa FettermanESSENTIAL SOUS VIDE COOKBOOK by Sarah James-

Huh. The package says to put the artichoke hearts frozen into 425ºF oven for 25 minutes . . .
-
I don't really know how to do anything in the microwave, @Tropicalsenior.

That’s hotter than I would choose for thawing stuff but it should do the job.
I'd transfer the artichokes to a bag you know can take the heat.What temp would you choose to defrost at?
(I can use the Anova steam oven)

Can I use the sous vide (currently running at 127ºF) to defrost a bag of artichoke hearts (in a hurry) ?

I had to google "retail shrink".
From Loomis:
Retail shrink refers to any type of loss such as missing money or inventory that should be sellable. Below are five types of shrinkage commonly found in stores:
1. Shoplifting or theft
2. Return fraud
3. Administrative error
4. Vendor fraud
5. Employee theft

Nero Wolfe was invited to a Ten for Aristology dinner some years ago. Naturally someone died and Archie Goodwin had to help Mr. Wolfe solve the murder.
Edited to add: Poison à la Carte is a mystery novella first published 1960 from Wikipedia

@Senior Sea Kayaker, you've probably done tons of research but I'm very interested in tourtière!
Montréal Spice Company Épices de Cru publish this tourtière recipe from the de Vienne Family.
There's also this tourtière recipe from pbs.org, this tourtière recipe from King Arthur flour, this tourtière recipe from New York Times, and this tourtière from Saveur.
Looking forward to hearing about your adventure.
Edited to add: I omitted @Ann_T's Tourtière
