I had a good time today with my new food processor. It'a KitcheAid 13
cup. It does the usual stuff, but it also has a variable thickness
slicer and a dicing device as well.
I diced all the veggies for the stuffing. Sliced the apples for pie.
Made the pie dough. And shredded the carrots for the orange jello.
The stiffing is especially tasty this year. I added red bell pepper
and fresh mushrooms. I used my dried sage as well as a bit of thyme
and a smidge of poultry seasoning (something I'd never used before) I
went back to stuffing of old and used ground beef instead of sausage.
I like it better. I guess it's what you grow up with.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

You have a Happy one too, Janet US. And to all here in RFC.
Sounds like your new food processor is a win, doing all that.

A Happy Thanksgiving to you and I bet you totally enjoy the new food
processor. I'd give up my mixer before the fp.

I use my (hand) mixer once or twice a month. I use my FP one or twice a
year. It has to be for something that is enough work to make it worth
digging it out cleaning it and putting it away again. Those are the
occasions where there really is no substitute. One of the chores I use
it for is cutting Seville orange peels for marmalade. It would easily
take 20 minutes or more to slice them all up fine enough to make
marmalade. The FP can cut them up in a minute.

I somewhat recently rediscovered orange marmalade. YUM.
That said, as little as I'd use it, just buying a small
jar works for me.

There is marmalade and there is marmalade. The good stuff is made with
Seville oranges, and mostly made in England or Scotland. It is
surprisingly easy to make. The hardest part is finding Seville oranges
in that short window of time when they are available. For a number of
years in RFC there have been announcements that they are available and
those of us who are making marmalade try to get out to get some while
they are in stock.

Anyone curious as to why the wonder troll is dragging this crap into a
cooking newsgroup? Oh boy, my stalker. That'll win some popularity
contests. LOL Yes, my brother had his leg amputated below the knee.
That should be good for a laugh according to this asshole.

He's killfiled so he tacks this statement onto a post by lucretia. What
a ****ing loser.

YMMV but the mistake you make is having to 'dig it out' - mine stands
ready to go and nothing is quicker then dropping whatever into it,
with the added benefit it can all go into the dishwasher, a win/win
situation.

Trust me. There are enough other things on the counter that get used a
lot more often... toaster, microwave, drip coffee maker, burr coffee
grinder, espresso maker, electric kettle....

Wow, you never ate orange marmalade in all your years... very odd.
When I used to eat peanut butter and jelly it was with orange
marmalade. Now I keep several jars in the pantry because it's a
cooking ingredient, I like it for oriental marinades, and it's
wonderful in chocolate cakes/browies. Years ago a Baskin & Robins
flavor was Manderin Chocolate (orange chocolate), was my favorite. I
also like candied orange peel covered with dark chocolate, Barton's
Bonbonnaire introduced me when I worked for them after school.

Speaking of which...when, exactly is seville orange season? I made
your marmalade recipe a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it. I
can't wait to make it again.

Coming soon! December - February. January is when you're most likely

They are usually available here in January or February, and I only see
them in stock for a week or two.

I am reminded of an incident that clued me into the expertise of some
produce department workers. We asked a guy in the department if and when
they would be carrying Seville oranges. I tried to describe them and
said they are used for making marmalade and then he said "Of yeah, the
ones that are really delicious" or something to that effect. He had
obviously never tasted one. They are horrible. They are so bad that I
am surprised they ever found a use for them.

I've never put oranges in my chicken, turkey or beef stock. ;)

LOL! I like that! Actually, Don does most of the dishes here too and
the lion's share of the house things (he's retired fully now).

I don't know about Ontario but here you have to be quick, they are a
desirable item and come in and disappear very quickly :)

A sharp chefs knife and a cutting board is doubly as fast as any home
style food processor, does a FAR neater/precise job too, and takes
under 15 seconds for clean up. Before you can prep a cabbage for cole
slaw to fit your food processer I've shredded the cabbage with a chefs
knife.... and nice long thin shreds.

But there are no kinky sexual favors involved with your hand washing.

In addition to washing dishes, my husband also does all of the
vacuuming, because my back can't take it. I'll dust, and do other
things that don't involve too much bending, but vacuuming and mopping
floors can really get to me.

We're about to get a once-a-month cleaning lady. I'm really looking
forward to having her. I won't have to feel too guilty about the fact
that I don't do too much around here.

I can ask at the grocery store. The last time I wanted to make the
marmalade I did that, and the produce guy was really good about
letting me know when they'd be in.

I've thought about it but I think the money here would be better spent
with someone to cut the grass for Don. I've not done much housework
since 2001. I was either out to sea too much or it was after my back
went really bad. Misdiagnosed by the Navy, it is no longer fixable.
Only life changes make it workable and stable.

Lazy excuses, Carol. ehhe
Above you said, "Actually, Don does most of the dishes here too
and the lion's share of the house things (he's retired fully now)."

Sounds like he didn't retire at all...he just switched to a job with no
pay. ;)
