Various Asian sauces/condiments/products premium brand guide?

Where are you located? At least State/Province - it makes everything simpler p -
Chicken bones tend to splinter as they are hollow - I was told never to give a dog chicken bones because of that p
-
That's not an island, that's a trolley! p
-
Some "opinions": Salamander - I don't know prices of gas but I had a reasonably priced electric Combi Oven --->APO probably 10 times cheaper and worth the price Pot filler - relatively cheap and worth it Just my thoughts p
-
This has to be in everyone's kitchen p

My newest Wishlist addition: https://www.vollrathfoodservice.com/Serving-System-Campaigns/SerVue-Cold-Touchless-Refrigerated-Serving-System?gclid=Cj0KCQjwt_qgBhDFARIsABcDjOck0n9a8jis9XpCB1FwmAsjiYDMCsUHEg4iEpNMJ7ZJS0Q2KWgTn_UaAihnEALw_wcB I didn't see a price, but I feel that will be on my Wishlist for a very long time 😁 p

I have it in a shaker on the counter and use it frequently p

What happened to Lea & Perrins White Wine Worcestershire Sauce?

You realize of course that if you hadn't married your husband, you wouldn't find yourself in this predicament, but then the rest of us would have less to talk about 😁 p -
So I want to buy an air fryer...which one should I get? A Cosori? I hear good things about them. Not to belittle your painful experience with them Anna, but did no one at head office not foresee the harm they are doing to their brand I don't do social, but to those that do, get the word out on their policies and practices in this regard @Anna N I hope you have a happy resolution to this problem, you and others in this boat deserve better! p

Duck vs dock - tiny feet and good balance 😀 I didn't know there was an upgrade - if I was starting over again, I would go for the new version (depending on $CDN price), but as I already have one I would stick with the original - larger size containers, more functions and a more substantial build seem to be worth the additional cost p

Speaking of rabbit holes I stand corrected, it is not a Waring Pro waffle maker but rather a Waring Commercial waffle maker: https://www.hubert.ca/product/21383/Waring-Commercial-WW180X-Single-Belgian-Waffle-Maker---11L-x-17W-x-9-12H And again @btbyrd, you may have got a great deal on your All-Clad, but I think I did as well or better as I paid about $200 for mine about 15 years ago and while not used extensively, still works like new - added bonus the plates are replaceable (in another 15 years) p
-
@btbyrd - great video, but I doubt if I will try that in my waffle maker ( it's one of the original Waring Pro models) p
-
I have a Waring Pro ‘flip-over’ single Belgian waffle maker - works well p

ATK highly recommends the APO: " Countertop steam ovens resemble toaster ovens but differ in a key way: They inject steam into the oven cavity during cooking. Steam speeds up the cooking process and is especially useful when baking, preparing large cuts of meat, or steaming vegetables or fish. We recommend the Anova Precision Oven as the best countertop steam oven as it offers customization and precision for enthusiasts who want to dial in the perfect settings for a recipe." "This steam oven is the best current option for an ambitious cook or baker, but there is room for improvement. You can calibrate the humidity level (amount of steam injected) in 5 percent increments, which is more customization than any of the other ovens in our lineup. A sous vide mode “seals” the food with humid air instead of submerging it in water, making sous vide cooking an easier endeavor because you don’t have to use plastic bags. Additionally, you can sear things off in the oven, saving the extra dishes usually created by the stovetop sear that many sous vide dishes require at the end to add color and texture. We also like that it has a built-in probe thermometer, which helps us track and monitor the internal temperature of the food. Its sleek control panel is easy to navigate once you get the hang of it. We got good food results, including some of the most gorgeous golden-brown toast we've ever seen. We proofed and baked a loaf of fluffy shokupan that stood tall thanks to steam and made Basque cheesecake with a deep caramel-colored top and soft, melty interior. We were also pleased with an exceptionally tender, juicy steamed whole white fish. Unfortunately, one of its biggest features—its app—fell far short. In theory, users can activate the oven from their phones and use its guided cooking without ever touching the control panel. However, we were never able to successfully connect to the oven via Bluetooth and had to set it manually to follow its recipes. We hope future versions of the app are more reliable so that the oven truly delivers on the streamlined experience it promises." The full review and comparisons to to others is behind a paywall. p

Baking/pizza steels are usually used in the oven (indirect heat) whereas a griddle is subjected to direct heat (gas, electric or induction) which induces the possibility of warpage p
-
If the cost of the packaging is 10% of the total and they can reduce that by 5%, then their profit margin goes up and they don't have to revert to "shrinkflation" to maintain their profit margin - makes sense to me. p
-
ATK did a review of portable cookers - electric, gas and induction - pros and cons The part on induction is at 9:44 - but the whole thing is short enough to watch in total Yes they did use the Breville Control Freak and though it was the be$$$t, it was their second choice. p
-
As a lot Air Fryers are made by the same company and just customized/branded for their own use there may be others out there with similar issues p
-
Evenly in my opinion, but that's very subjective - I remember someone did a test with flour - don't remember what they were testing - I just remember the pix p
-
Magnet test I have the All Clad D3 fry pan which works flawlessly on induction p
-
My visit to Philips informed me that it was only available through their retail partners - WS was the only contact aside from Amazon p

May be a sign that it has been discontinued and the seller has bought a job lot of closeouts https://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/philips-rotisserie-attachment-for-smoke-less-grill/ No longer available p

Is there an example of "good science" that disputes that premise? p -
