  1. That should not be necessary. I'd return the unit and start again. Disclaimer: I am not a microwave owner. Though I am a holder of an FCC amateur and commercial license.
  2. Indeed, I pitched a bag of parmesan rinds last night.
  3. Any word on a better fitting lid for the small attachment?
  4. Very bad way for a small quantity of anything. But the only method I have found of making truly smooth nut butters. Edit: @nathanm says you can use a colloid mill.
  5. I can attest you can make powdered sugar. The problem is there is then a layer of sugar dust over everything in the kitchen. I would expect the same issue with dry spices. Plus you would need to use a very large quantity of spice.

    Dinner 2020

    I thought this was lamb. I usually label my bags with four digits for the year but I don't always note the contents. Anyhow, Philips grilled pork spareribs. Switched out the wine at the last moment.
  7. My sugar pan if it helps...
  8. I had a metal mouli. More than one. They rusted badly. Now I have a mouli foodmill but it is made of stainless.
  9. Depends how many days you are into lockdown. Though for fish I think freezing is a better way to go.

    Dinner 2020

    In this case it was more the three mile walk. Dinner was actually on the table by 1:00 am.

    Dinner 2020

    Very tired when it came to dinner. CSO chicken, coleslaw, sweet potato. No complaints.

    Dinner 2020

    Amazon bluefish*, Philips grilled asparagus, wild rice. Melissa Clark's anchovy caper sauce currently featured in the NY Times. Followed by Rainier cherries. *Yes, I am aware, bluefish is not a riparian species.
  14. Don't forget the KitchenAid Precise Heat Mixing Bowl! (For which I blame Kerry.) Edit: I have not tried it but I'm not sure the Paragon would be precise enough for chocolate. Might work though.
  15. It can become addictive.
  16. Till I clicked on "see price".

    Dinner 2020

    Since I'd received an amazon delivery last night's dinner was to be bluefish. But after a three and a half mile walk, one thing and another, it got to be midnight and I realized I had not started the baked potato. Not to worry, I sat down with my mai tai* and peanuts. Peanuts were the first thing I'd eaten since the night before. Two hours later the potato was ready but I realized I was not hungry enough for bluefish. I had coleslaw with what of the potato I could finish. *fooled you. It was actually Mississippi punch, minus the cognac which I am low on in the pandemic.
  18. And was that the last egg?
  19. Amazon is refunding half the cost of the two bags of cherries. Now I need something to use up cherries.
  20. Not having much to do with the pandemic, my evening's amazon delivery was mostly right. Of course the baby broccoli turned out to be broccoli. I still have broccoli waiting to be eaten since my last order of baby broccoli. But they had Rainier cherries! Rainier cherries @7.99 a pound. I should have known better. I selected 1 and I thought that was 1 pound. No. Rainier cherries are sold not by the pound, but by the "item". One item of Rainier cherries was $19.74. I wondered why my total was so high. The weight matches up with the cost but they will spoil before I eat up all those cherries. I've been contemplating complaining. They are beautiful cherries but why so many?
  21. Amazon has shifted to something new: it had been that delivery windows opened a few times a day and immediately disappeared. Whether you got food depended on how fast you could click. Now delivery windows are available but customers are limited to one order per week. (Wish I had known that before I placed my order.) My shopper has finished working on my order. Everything was available. Stuff should be here in a couple hours. Wish me luck. Now I may go over to Shoprite to see if I can find the things I didn't get. It must break Jeff's heart to tell people they can't buy more than once a week.
  22. How big is your attic?

    Lunch 2020

    Thanks. Maybe she has an erratum listed somewhere giving the temperature for the recipe.
