Oh, for being a lousy speeler, that's amazing! Was that supposed to be
choyate and cojeta? I gotta say, those are fairly obscure in the typical
Anglo setting.

Yeah, it's a bread machine my mom passed down to me. It's a good'un,
though! I love kitchen gadgets and this certainly qualifies. You can find
'em pretty cheap on eBay, I noticed. Hmm, bread in a rice cooker. In
Hawaii, they used to have something called "manapua", which is a steamed
white flour roll stuffed with char sui pork - yum! Could maybe make an
English pudding in a rice cooker. Nah, sounds too scary...

I cheated - next time I'd actually *make* something. But in a pinch, Rudy's
doesn't suck. I got a cheap-o electric smoker (coz I'm tired of stoking
wood and tending fire for 8-12 hours), but I haven't worked out acceptable
technique yet - close, but no red ring. Perhaps there's just no substitute
for a good wood-fired smoker.
