Re-filling a bottle of Poire William Eau-de-vie
JoNorvelleWalker replied to a topic in Spirits & Cocktails
OK, how do they get the ship into the bottle? -

Have you tried cinnamon in tuna salad?

My box grater is great for zesting oranges. Less so for zesting cheese.

I had one like yours. I got it in grad school or maybe even before. It was corroded, rusted, and not sharp. I threw it out just a couple years ago. Meanwhile, my Ankarsrum slicer/shredder came today. This attachment has six drums. In addition to slicing and shredding, there is a fine grating drum, a medium coarse grating drum, a coarse grating drum, and a potato grating drum. The medium coarse and coarse drums are suggested for cheese, and the fine grating drum for parmesan. This is not to be confused with the Ankarsrum grating attachment, which I hope will arrive this week.

You don't mention pressing the Hard Blast Freezing button (the one that looks like a snowflake). From the manual (page 8 in mine): "This mode will run until the food probe reaches the desired temperature. If this option is not enabled, then the unit will run until the temperature inside the cabinet reaches the desired temperature." Check with Vesta. They have, or at least used to have, responsive tech support. Which reminds me, I need to ask them if it is possible to replace my broken probe.

A vertical slow juicer is not something I would want to take camping, however my Kuvings just did an outstanding job on a pomegranate. I cannot abide the taste of bottled pomegranate juice but this juice is delicious. Plus I got very good yield. (Yes, I have a rack and pinion citrus press that I love dearly and employ everyday for citrus.) This morning amazon delivered two more pomegranates.

The probe controls the device. The display/control temperature can be set either to the cabinet temperature or to the probe temperature.

As much as I like the New York Times, my favorite newspaper is The Economist. Each issue they publish an obituary on the final page. Often as not it is of a well beloved, or otherwise, world leader. Sometimes it is of an African cab driver. This week it is of Agitu Gudeta, an Ethiopian alpine goatherd and cheese maker. She was a refugee who fled Ethiopia for the Tyrol because she championed herders rights. Agitu was murdered less than a month ago. She loved her flock. After her death "...the good neighbors of Frassilongo trudged through the snow to feed them."

Cuisinart Combo Steam/Convection Oven (Part 3)

I have kids but I don't have a husband or a wife. And I confess I don't know what fruit mentos are. A couple days ago I defrosted the freezer. Dinner tonight is a formerly frozen rib steak that I anovaed and am now about to go sear on my Philips grill.

The Inomata ice tray works well for me. Compared to Kokubo, the Inomata seems made from a highly hydrophobic plastic. Had I a choice I would have preferred the somewhat smaller cubes from Kokubo, but nothing I can't deal with. Not like the crisis of 1973 in Kenya. The tour operator radioed to base: "Send ice trays!" What arrived by truck, days later, were ashtrays.

No... but I work part time in a library, Vacche Rosse is what I buy more often.

No Costco within walking distance. Nearest one I know of is about 45 minutes away by car. Is their Parmesan particularly easy to grate?

Forgive me, I realize I already had an earlier thread about grating Parmesan... https://forums.egullet.org/topic/154311-portioning-parmesan/

Cut slice from round loaf. Cut slice in half.

Last night my dinner was a Berkshire chop. Thanks for sparing me from having to post a picture.
