  1. I suspect the customer service rep working out of a closet at home did not have a ruler to go measure.
  2. They do now. They didn't a couple days ago. And the information contradicts what the anova customer service rep told me. However I suspect 10 inches is the height.

    Carrots

    No, my only culinary visit to the ER was slicing chorizo. Same knife as the carrots though. And this was the old days when the doctor sat with my kids while they held me for observation.
  4. I vacuum seal commercial hard salami. I'm not sure I understand the issue?

    Carrots

    Not @Katie Meadow but how could I forget the exhilaration of cutting the tip of my thumb off in pursuit of MC carrot soup. The soup is tasty but I can't say it was worth it. I no longer slice my carrots lengthwise. Neither for @nathanm nor anyone. The point of slicing the carrots lengthwise in the MC recipe is to remove the core. A better method I devised is to simply shave the carrots with a peeler till one gets down to the lighter colored core.
  6. Let's hold out for 12.4 inch height and 12.4 inch depth.
  7. Try 275F for three hours, wrapped in foil. (I do it in CSO.) The skin won't be crispy but the flesh will not be watery. No need prick or stab.
  8. Potatoes, crunchy skin. Sweet potatoes, buttery smooth flesh. No butter needed.
  9. I do mine in the CSO but wrapped in foil.
  10. This fall I hope to acquire a slow juicer. Kuvings had a recent sale but I had just purchased an anova oven and I couldn't play.
  11. @gfweb @Smithy she denigrated my paella as arroz con pollo as it had only chicken and chorizo for protein. Tonight our library had a presentation on paella. The chef (at home) used chicken and chorizo, but included clams, lobster, and frozen mixed seafood in his version. He said you could add snails or whatever it is you like. He also made sangria. Me, I'm having leftover arroz con pollo again for dinner after I finish my mai tai course.
  12. The anova blog has an interesting al pastor recipe that could be adapted. https://oven.anovaculinary.com/recipe/yGITHdkk6Z006195ZM6B
  13. Another problem with the Chefman. Two nights ago I made paella (which my Spanish speaking friend reminded me was not a real paella). No matter, the paella was rather good. I wanted to place the paella on the Chefman to keep warm. I couldn't find an open surface in the dining room or kitchen.

  15. The anova website is now saying the interior height of the oven is 10 inches. Maybe they are still refining the design.
  16. Does anyone have experience with the stainless steel grill (rather than the non-stick that comes standard).
  17. The occasions I've had retsina I forgot.
  18. Steak last night and I noticed my Philips is becoming less non-stick. Indeed the steak stuck such that it was more done than I would have liked. Yes, my grill goes through the dishwasher a lot. Anyone else noticing an increase in stick?
  19. La Favorite Blanc pairs very well with Wray & Nephew.
  20. Molasses is dangerous. Much safer processed into rum.
  21. Yesterday at work one of my colleagues complained that workers in a pizza restaurant near her home were not wearing masks. She notified township officials where she lives but they refused to take action because the owner said it was too hot for the workers to wear masks. They said she could call the police. She plans to report them to the state. In other news she mentioned her town has a new cluster of cases.
  22. This afternoon I mentioned to the friend who gave me my curry trees that they had been losing leaves. She said that was normal.
  23. The Ankarsrum comes with a separate bowl with a central shaft for whipping egg whites and mixing certain cookies. Egg whites whip OK, perhaps better than the KitchenAid. I've not tried a cake but cookies were a pain when mixed in the bowl with the central shaft. I think cookies might be more fun using the standard stainless steel bowl. If I were to want a cake I'd grab the KitchenAid. Not because the Ankarsrum couldn't do as well. But with the KitchenAid there is no learning curve. However ask yourself about attachments. I have several KitchenAid attachments and I'd be sad not to have a mixer to use them on. Indeed, in my kitchen the KitchenAid is used mainly for the attachments. I have only one Ankarsrum attachment, the flocker, but I use it frequently. Ankarsrum has a range of optional attachments but in general they seem more expensive than attachments for the KitchenAid.
  24. I am not sure. The knob is continuous but I tested only on low. Maybe Kerry could answer.
