Why would I care how corn pops? FWIW, water in the kernel heats up and makes it explode. It's really better cooked in oil. Having said that, I don't eat popcorn. I do love grilled corn on the cob. ![]() ? Mayhaps were you not so intent on > attempting to denigrate others You mean you? Denigrating is hardly the word for it. Contradicting, perhaps.

You're the one who somehow got the idea that I was going to move in with you - and you posted that to RFC just out of the total blue. After having met you twice at casual austin.food gatherings 2 or 3 years ago and not giving you any indication that there was any sort of romantic interest in the least, you somehow twisted that into MY MOVING IN WITH YOU? That was just way too Psycho for me. I sat there at stared at the screen for at least 15 minutes wondering, WTF? That was just way too spooky.

ROFL. Which reminds me I need to df and tar-cz the freezer before I go to Costco tomorrow. When I make a new dish for the first time, I usually diff and patch a bunch of recipes I find on the Internet. And if they turn out well I commit them to cvs. (Hmm, this actually has practical implications!) Any other 'computer engineers' want to get in on this? -sw |

Were I younger, I'd 'man' up, but I just don't care anymore. [ObFood] A friend of my wife's gave us two boneless ribeye steaks. I cut the center fat triangles out, trimmed the thin fat cap off the edge, tied string around the outside to make the steaks thicker and rounder and treated the steaks like they were filet mignon. If you don't like how lean filet mignons are, try this. It's not lean and twice as big as the filets I rarely get. <https://www.dropbox.com/s/4dmv2vi6j7af07n/IMG_2668.jpg?dl=0> leo |

It cooks far more quickly that doing it in the usual way! The hot air surrounds the food which makes it faster! |

Turns out they appear to be 'zooted up' FlavorWave Turbo ovens - that Mr T used to shill, IMHO. Table-top convection cookers. I have a Speed Chef (same thing, different brand) used it several times; the various foods I tried turned out pretty good, and the cooking times were a bit quicker than in my conventional oven - but it was a schlep to clean (despite what the adverts claimed) and quite cumbersome so it ended up in the back of one of my kitchen cupboards.... and is still there. Maybe the newer versions are a bit easier to clean but I'll pass. My MW has a convection oven built-in so I use that when required. -- Cheers Chatty Cathy |

I can roast a chicken or two in about the same time without having to turn it with a regular oven... I even make french fries from fresh spuds in a regular oven.. I crinkle cut, coat with oil, and arrange in a single layer on a sheet pan. For me the main down side of an air fryer is its rather small capacity... they can't handle a 6-7 lb roaster chicken. My nighbor has one, she says aside from the small capacity it's a PIA to clean... something for her next yard sale. |

The original Flavorwave and their ilk were essentially blow dryers on top of a non-insulated clear container. It's a rather simple but brilliant idea. They were loud as you'd expect a blow dryer on top of a container would be.. The new air fryers also have a heating element on the top. The fan has bigger blades and a bigger, lower speed, motor which should make it quieter in operation. It uses a heating element similar to one in an electric range. The cooking chamber is enclosed in another metal chamber which is covered and insulated with a plastic shell. The air flows through the bottom, channeled up the sides of the second metal chamber where the heat is recycled. It is essentially a more efficient, quieter, Flavorwave type cooker that cooks with forced air convection and radiant heat. The main problem with the design is the greatly reduced size of the cooking chamber. |

It doesn't really fit in with my Asian cooking style. I'll probably try to air fry some chicken thighs. My guess is that it'll turn out tasty enough. This morning I cooked up an egg that I found in the back of the condo. I'm assuming it's a chicken egg. Wow, free food! https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared...Xaj3DTa91R4oV8 |

As far as the egg goes, my wife was horrified that I would eat some wild chicken eggs just laying around in the dirt. They are rather small and tea colored. The resident manager/Nazi told me to get them out of there because he didn't want chicks running around the condo. He speaks and I obey but I shall get my revenge one of these days... https://www.amazon.com/photos/shared...3ZSPlV67O36XpV |

I cooked some chicken thighs last night in the thing-a-ma-bob. It was okay. These things would probably work better for folks that like to bake/roast small quantities of food with little or no oil. It's quiet in operation and has digital readouts so you can probably get consistent results once you get a hang of timing and temperatures. My chicken got scorched at the top because of the close proximity to heating element i.e., there's too much radiant heat being given off. In my case, I'm a fan of frying and like to use a lot of oil when cooking so there's not much of an appeal for me here. Some folks might enjoy using it but as far as I can see, it's not doing anything that can't be done in a good convection toaster oven. |
