  1. If it helps, I do my frozen peas 8 minutes on steam in the CSO.
  2. My latest project has been Georgian cuisine. Thanks to Tiko Tuskadze's book Supra here are some US suppliers of ingredients: https://www.bazaarspices.com/ http://www.georgiangourmet.com/ http://georgianwinehouse.com/ She also lists suppliers in the UK and Australia. I had been using Indian fenugreek instead of blue fenugreek, who knew?

    Dinner 2018

    Last night, from Supra, A feast of Georgian Cooking, by Tiko Tuskadze: Chkmeruli (p130), poussin in garlic and walnut sauce (and bread to sop it up). Tonight, after a particularly long and tired day, I needed comfort food: ribeye, rare/medium rare, peas, mashed potato. Method of Herve This, there is no better*. No plans to stay up later than it takes to finish this glass of WhislePig. *in my opinion.
  4. Thank you...and as someone who, on the average, drinks a mai tai a day I would have to agree.
  5. Mine didn't stick but you sure gave me an idea what to do tomorrow!
  6. Do you have their old applejack which is apple brandy cut with neutral grain spirits or the new Laird's applejack that is really apple brandy? There is an applejack thread here: https://forums.egullet.org/topic/54293-applejack/ My favorite apple beverage is Autumn in Jersey. This being NJ and all that...not that Laird's distills in NJ anymore: https://forums.egullet.org/topic/148631-drinks-2014-part-2/?do=findComment&comment=1994132 Then there is the Widow's Kiss, it really works: https://forums.egullet.org/topic/146762-drinks-2014-part-1/?do=findComment&comment=1962457 And then the Jack Rose, not the finest drink in my opinion but it sure is pretty:
  7. Sorry, Dave explained it.
  8. Montana Works? Edit: never mind...found it.
  9. It might be tight but you could fit two side by side.
  10. I have six Echo devices but so far have not found space to place one in the kitchen. So no culinary applications for Alexa, unless it counts asking Manathu-Vorcyon (my Roomba) to pick up bread crumbs from the floor.

    Dinner 2018

    OK, second dinner. Baguette, Pink Lady apple, cheeses, miscellaneous wines to clear out the refrigerator. Temperature dropping, winds increasing. No better morning to pop a bottle of Whistlepig single barrel, barrel strength.
  12. Do we have an emoticon for rolling on the floor laughing? Crying even?
  13. Time to be moving to New Zealand.
  14. Have a look upthread... https://forums.egullet.org/topic/146534-i-will-never-again-part-4/?do=findComment&comment=2131148
  15. This evening I took two bacon strips from the freezer -- does that count?

    Dinner 2018

    Waffles and bacon. Was supposed to be more like breakfast. But it was 6:30. Whether another dinner happens is uncertain. Bread is in progress, though with the temperatures my dough isn't doing much. I just measured the dough temperature at 21 Celsius -- and that is only because the bowl is sitting on the stove with the oven running. Yes, I did remember to add the yeast.
  17. Vile, give me peanut butter any day.
  18. I shall never again: 1.) Purchase multiple large jars/bags of herbs and spices when I have said spices in the back of my spice cabinet. Arrowroot and savory come to mind. 2.) Shake my mai tai without adding the lime juice.
  19. @Franci this is very sad. A dear friend said recently that what your internet business needed was a good packaging engineer. (Her husband is a packaging engineer.) Thank you again for the cakes and sorry that I didn't try the pistachio. Best of success in Florida!
  20. I am minded of a 1950's Mad magazine article on how to eat pizza.
  21. I can attest the Clear Creek goes down easy. Glass beside me at the moment.
  22. I use distilled water to make dashi: https://forums.egullet.org/topic/21765-dashi/?do=findComment&comment=1977154 Which reminds me I have not made dashi in a while.
  23. I went hog wild.
