  1. I noticed this afternoon that the NY Times Wirecutter site no longer is enamored with the Ninja. Not that I have made any ice cream for months.
  2. For ice cream I'd say yes.

    Why "instead"?
  4. I seldom partake of gin: Michael Flanders, Hogarth Gin Lane and all of that. Granted, I do enjoy an Aviation from time to time. What is the preferred gin for an Aviation?
  5. Cheerios for breakfast, with cold liquid from the refrigerator.
  6. From what I'm reading I'm not sure the killer whales are playing.
  7. Wonderful that they could vacuum seal your purchases to order.
  8. I shall never again shake my evening mai tai without the shaker lid in place.
  9. Sorry @BonVivant I missed this thread until now. Thank you as always for sharing your adventures.

    Dinner 2023

    Tonight, Progresso cream of mushroom soup. Two nights ago Progresso minestrone. I cherished every kidney bean.
  11. Thanks @lemniscate (and thanks also to @Margaret Pilgrim). I may try the Hakubaku.
  12. I would ask how Momofuku ramen compares with Ichiran, which is what I'm having tonight, as originally enabled by @Duvel. From the pictures Momofuku noodles appear wider and thicker than Ichiran noodles. I wish quality noodles for ramen could be purchased without sauce or flavor packets. If they can I have not found them on amazon.

    @Ann_T I don't see how you do it.
  14. I have noticed cooks in some local Chinese restaurants* are actually Mexican. Likewise cooks in some local Japanese restaurants, as I am informed by a Chinese source, are really Chinese emigrants who speak his local dialect. Why should it matter as long as long as the cooks can cook? It's been about five hundred years since an Aztec blogger commented on the customs of Japanese immigrants. *local Italian restaurants as well.
  15. I've been to the HMart in Edison. Is that the same one?
  16. I'm enjoying some apricot kernels as we speak. Probably not the worst thing in my diet. But bear in mind some poisons kill in exceedingly small doses.

    Dinner 2023

    Seldom do I eat at a restaurant but my granddaughter is moving back to South Carolina: Crispy Tangerine Flounder for my son. Lobster, eel, avocado roll for me. Sushi for my granddaughter. Seaweed Salad for my granddaughter's girlfriend. My daughter-in-law also had sushi, but by the time I got to her plate it was too late.
  18. I used to have a head on shrimp as a pet, so I don't eat them.
  19. Batch 29: 90g blanched Spanish almonds 90g apricot kernels 350g water 280g sugar 30ml Wray & Nephew Overproof 30ml orange flower water Thankfully this time I have limes.
  20. I also have a large (as well as a small) KitchenAid. Modernist Bread has a short discussion of the Ankasrum in the section on types of mixers.
  21. https://forums.egullet.org/topic/159886-ankarsrum-mixer-of-many-names/
  22. You may not remember the old Popeye cartoon where Popeye is selling refrigerators to Inuit. As always things were saved by spinach. The phrase "like selling iceboxes to Eskimos" means something not likely to work.
  23. It is indeed a paper bag. Nowhere in the GripStic literature that I've found does it say GripStic clips don't work with paper bags. The replacement clips that came today work with paper bags.
