My corned beef is in the hot tub! It's set at 180F and will be there for 10ish hours. I plan to finish it in the oven with a brown sugar & mustard glaze (because both hubby and I love it that way). I'll save the juices to cook the carrots and potatoes in and roast the cabbage (which I prefer over boiled). Now I have to check my refrigerator for horseradish and buy some if I need it. -- sf |

This makes it ever so much nicer. :) No idea. This gift was a complete surprise. I've never even toyed with the thought of owning one, so I'm on a learning curve. I chose corned beef for two reasons: I didn't have it on the 17th and it comes in a vacuum sealed bag. I didn't have any use for a Food Saver up to this point, so I don't have one. Serious Eats seems to think cooking a corned beef via sous vide is fine. I'm looking forward to cooking tough pieces of meat in the sous vide and having them come out like prime. Getting ready to take it out of the hot tub to finish in the oven. I will put the juices from the bag in water to boil my carrots and potato. I need to do that, because they won't taste right if I don't. -- sf |

What I'd really like is a cooker like that in a really small package. It takes quite a while for us to eat all the food cooked in our slow cooker. It's too big! I should just use our small 4 cup rice cooker as a slow cooker. As I recall, the warm setting is able to maintain a 140 degree water bath. I've cooked short ribs in baggies in the rice cooker - it takes a couple of days and the results are just so-so. I think I'll cook a small batch of beans in the rice cooker. Just set the beans in there on the warm setting for a few hours, then put it on high till it starts to boil, then set it on the warm setting again for a few hours until tender. |

Just set the beans in there on the warm setting for a few hours, then put it on high till it starts to boil, then set it on the warm setting again for a few hours until tender. I understand. Just downsized to a 6 cup rice cooker which is fine for "just us" and can serve the family if I need to. I like your idea of using the rice cooker to make beans! Going to try that soon. My beans are thoroughly cooked in just a couple of hours after they've been soaked, but I am usually making soup, so I continue cooking them until some have disintegrated enough to thicken the broth. -- sf |

It remains a mystery to me why they are on your "bad" list! All that badmouthing you saw in rfc about the refried beans is complete nonsense btw. They are what you make them. Seasoned properly, beans are food of the gods. Don't get me wrong. There are some beans (the common vernacular for pulses is "beans" over here) I don't like, chickpeas for example. Hate them unless prepared as hummus. Seasoning (and texture) is everything. 25 pages of information and recipes here http://www.pulsecanada.com/uploads/f...dy_spreads.pdf WHO SHOULD EAT PULSES? Everyone can benefit from eating pulses. Pulses are high in protein, fibre and complex carbohydrates, and low in fat. These nutrients make pulses an important part of any healthy diet. WHAT ARE PULSES? Pulses are the edible dried seeds of legume crops. The name “pulses” comes from the Latin word “puls”, meaning thick soup or potage. Common pulses include: - Dry peas - Dry beans - Lentils - Chickpeas Pulses do not include fresh green beans or peas. Soybeans and peanuts are related to pulses because they are also the edible seeds of podded plants, but they have a much higher fat content than pulses, which contain virtually no fat. -- sf |

What do you think? He'll find out when she's on her own. I didn't think my kids paid much attention but they did and they reproduced what they liked. DD does identical reproductions (she was the one who showed the least interest in cooking) and son puts his own little twist on things. My son's wife... the one who came to us not knowing how to cook, has blossomed into a wonderful cook herself. In fact, she confided to me last weekend that she has always thought about being a baker. She used to be a hairdresser, and now she's an accountant - so why not be a baker if that's what interests her? She gets to work at 5 AM anyway (voluntarily), so the hours won't be an issue. -- sf |

The restaurant wants to train him to be a sous chef. He has an offer from an new restaurant to manage the place. The guy is 22 years old, obviously he's got some mad skills. As it goes, the world is his oyster, although he can't see it or maybe he doesn't want the world. I can't say if he'll end up in the gutter or in the stars. Those kinds of driven/volatile guys will always have a stormy relationship with the ones they love. That's unfortunate. > -- > > sf |

This guy is not a line cook or a prep cook. I think he's earned the title of "chef." Ironically, you're the one that doesn't know the difference. |
