Seriously good scores! I picked up Antonio Carluccio's mushroom book for £1.29 recently since I like his Italian Feast book (which I got for £1)

I've been down the rabbit hole with these two great sites. https://notalwaysright.com/tag/restaurant http://kitchenette.jezebel.com/ - specifically the Behind Closed Ovens pieces. Have fun. You may lose several hours if you like mad restaurant stories
-
Just popping in to say a well deserved congratulations. Don't enter me in the draw, it should go to someone who can actually forage for the stuff in the recipes

Maybe, maybe not. White mushrooms with white gills are tricky as there are some poisonous ones. Consult a very good fungi ID book and be cautious! I had some on the lower field that looked a bit like that and ended up not being edible.

What do you mean, welcome? The Kamado Joe Jr and the Instant Pot are also the fault of you guys £3.85 from eBay is petty cash. The grill and the IP were good purchases though and I hope the same is true for the cheapy spiraliser. Will have to see!
-
I have just bought a cheap zoodle maker because of you guys. And the enormous courgette in my fridge
-
The Kamado grill gets a good manual scrub and fits neatly in the dishwasher cutlery tray. Advantages of a Joe Jr!

Love it! Mine have a case of the yellow leaves so they got a good water last night and a good feed tonight. I am a bad mother when it comes to watering plants, tis true....

$29.99 really is an excellent deal (although I realise your tax on alcohol might be different, I got a taste for expensive whisky living in Japan for similar reasons!). £27.00 at my standard supermarket. http://sainsburys.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/gb/groceries/sipsmiths-gin-70cl?langId=44&storeId=10151&krypto=RRq%2FCp6E5TJ8CoV4YIGgejrIaDZQzUkkCJdhfO21JwrbjosMAyRWnf6dQfBFxRLsc4pCeJnrTz%2BJJ7CgY%2BCU%2FoVlGP7hGGXvKrxVk2gXj1YWT7Se34fVVwKm5DV4qBxrjjPDxs84KQqJYO6qF5lI3m1bA39tI%2BDvTJ3xMqMFMl0%3D&ddkey=http%3Agb%2Fgroceries%2Fsipsmiths-gin-70cl

I do enjoy Sipsmith's. Might this help you find a US stockist? http://www.wine-searcher.com/find/sipsmith+london+dry+gin+england/0/usa

My (ancient) Kenwood food processor does variable speed.

I have a bank of wood sorrel about 300 yards from the house. Occasionally I pick some for salad (a little goes a VERY long way) but mostly I am too lazy. A leaf or two is a favourite snack when walking to the end of the land to check things.

GlorifiedRice, have you ever seen the overheat function kick in on the IP? I'm just thinking about that as the only time I've gotten near that amount of stuck on ness (and it was no means as bad as that) was when I was cooking a tomato based chili and it wouldn't go up to pressure because the base kept on overheating. I'm thinking if the overheat warning hadn't kicked in I might have gotten a horrible mess. If you've never seen the overheat function it might be the problem is that the IP's overheat function isn't working, rather than the pot? Just a thought.

IIRC, the spinach and iron thing is a misplaced decimal point.

I found a whole stream of Masterchef Australia and then it disappeared. Reminds me to go looking for it again! The first programme from series 7 of Bake Off was a good watch Bake Off Creme de la Creme looks worth a punt too, as it's pastry chefs competing in teams to do cool stuff. Masterchef, Celebrity Masterchef and best of all Masterchef the Professionals are on my standard telly rotation. The Chef's Protege which aired a few years back was also excellent if you can find it.

Having read the article, I do love me some pomegranate and avocado though, and avocado is because it makes me very happy in a salad, and pomegranate juice diluted with sparkling mineral water is one of the nicest things to drink when you are on an alcohol detox. Pomegranate molasses is awesome too. I don't know if I'd ever even thought of them as superfoods though!
-
I've always enjoyed the hell out of Jay Rayner's appearances on Masterchef, and his columns. Nice to know he hung out at eGullet too
-
My water is soft (I am on a spring water system) but I've done an epic sticky burn on with chili and that cleaned up fine. I'm kinda baffled as to what to suggest. Dishwasher doesn't come up perfect (I get those little drops that you get) but usually a combo of a soak and a scrub pre dishwasher and a dishwash has worked fine.
-
Flies, ugh. I hate that they try to land on me all the time. I must smell nice or something. I'd not seen those tennis racket zappers before. eBay provides

seconded, please!

Went out to eat at Fishmore Hall http://www.fishmorehall.co.uk/ last night. Very good meal, and their butter was to die for! Meant to ask who the supplier was, then forgot. Ah well. We'll be back.

For tiny space dining I am going to shamelessly pimp one of the best restaurants in Tokyo. I called him sensei, and rightly so. https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g1066457-d4021851-Reviews-Restorante_Amoroso-Shinjuku_Tokyo_Tokyo_Prefecture_Kanto.html

Even eating at Takazawa I've managed to get in with a couple of months notice, and they have 12 covers. I reckon he cooks twice a week, that maintains his lifestyle and with the exclusivity ticket that makes him enough money to live on. Just my impression though.
