  1. Does wifi work well inside an oven? Or a pressure cooker?

    You could always use an A4 Box... https://forums.egullet.org/topic/159240-a4-box-induction-cooker/?tab=comments#comment-2210000
  3. If you have a KitchenAid the pasta roller attachment works quite well.
  4. My favorite newspaper is The Economist. Two recent food stories caught my eye: There is a soy panic in British Columbia. Shortage of China Lily soy sauce has devolved to crisis. Scalpers are asking ten times the normal price. Particularly affected are indigenous British Columbians who regard China Lilly as a traditional staple food along side curried bologna. China Lily is addressing the shortage as best they can. Christopher Wong, grandson of the founder, is grateful: "Loyalty on that scale is unheard of in this day and age," he says. The other story was about enterprising Cambodians filling Vietnam's appetite for field rats. Though field rat consumption in Vietnam has been down after a study found 56 percent of rats served in restaurants tested positive for coronaviruses.

  5. I certainly should downsize but I'm afraid of missing something.
  6. It might even be good.
  7. It wouldn't have taken much more time to make pizza pineapple for real.
  8. Though I have to wonder if that presentation wasn't Photoshopped.

    I love the plates. I have some Japanese bowls that color. Oh, ya, and the food.
  10. Thank you for the spoiler. My box is here but I haven't been able to bring myself to open it.
  11. My pictures are long gone but I recall Marshall Plan food containers being proudly displayed as window planters. The memory makes me cry with joy.
  12. And the oven is?
  13. I have a deal with bears: don't eat me and I won't eat you.
  14. I can confirm that circa 1970 the Canadian Pacific cuisine was excellent. Not bad wine list either.
  15. Actually In my opinion the current Chinese GE ovens are quite good. At least compared to the dreadful GE ovens that preceded them. Speaking as someone who has experienced both.

    Smart man.
  18. My granddaughter reports that in her three visits spring rolls were common in China. She adds that it could be a case of catering to foreigners.

    Tonight’s 90 second pizza. I forgot to raise the oven rack so the top was less blackened than the bottom.
  20. It is a typical Georgian qvevri wine. Qvevri are large underground clay vats. Think of a huge amphora. I'd say the taste is reminiscent of a light Madeira. Georgian wine is not fortified. The color is pretty. Orange, not Madeira brown. Georgian red wines are made in Qvevri too.
  21. Forgive me, all I could think of was Adam Driver's iconic line in The Dead Don't Die. And thanks to you I just bought the Blu-ray. If you were wondering, it doesn't.
  22. This brings back a remembrance from the last century. In a New Jersey strip mall north of here there were an Afghan restaurant and a Thai restaurant that shared the same kitchen. I'm told the owners were an Afghan/Thai couple. I only sampled the Afghan establishment but I thought the food was excellent.
  23. And the proper color too.
