Re: What did you cook today?
Homing in on the perfect cheeseburger. IMG_3990.jpeg Roll is ciabatta from La Brea Bakery. Slow-cooked crimini mushrooms alternating with Emmental, on one slice of domestic swiss so I could move it onto the cooking patty. Some Mozzarella shavings as a lo-temp glue; the whole thing melted together in...

Re: What did you cook today?
A tour de force! I can almost smell the awesome through the screen. Lengua has this creamy texture and a faint organ-meat funk to it. I’m thinking it could make a very nice pâté maison. I could definitely see using chunks of tender, cooked tongue as a garnish in a pate. Absolutely! Thanks again for...

Re: What did you cook today?
Of course, I rarely get to eat them....I'm only allowed to peel them for my wife and kids. Wow they look great! Would love to go down south and try some authentic ones cause I sure wont find that in N Ca. https://www.theisletoncrawdadfestival.com/ Now that I no longer live close, I sorta wish I’d g...

Re: Show us your new knife!
NKDx2! These two showed up the same day. Shindo funayuki 165 in blue 2 Birgersson small gyuto 170 in (undisclosed) carbon steel They are both sweet little cutters! I put a 1000 edge on the Shindo and a 3k (Chosera) on the Birgie. Now both whisper through receipt paper. And both more often than not p...

Re: Single Bevel Kiritsuke
Hard crusty bread is likely to chip the (!) out of a traditional single-bevel knife. Unless one puts a rather obtuse microbevel on it, which imo defeats the design.

Re: Favorite Kitchen Item?
Yes...I'd forgot a peeler. Definitely up there with a scale and Thermapen for me. I'm a Kuhn Rikon Classic Swiss Peeler kinda guy ;) I struggled for years with a no-name ceramic swivel peeler whose edge was 100% chips. Not a millimeter of original edge left. Finally got a Kuhn Rikon coupla years ag...

Re: Favorite Kitchen Item?
What scales are people using here? Mine (Taylor I think) don't seem to want to accurately weigh the small additions, like 10 grams of salt, yeast, whatever. So annoying. I'd buy a new one, but the ones people have recommended to me are discontinued. Sigh. Woo is me. Do I want some cheese to go with...

Re: Favorite Kitchen Item?
Over twenty years ago, I bought a piece of tantalum plate off the Bay. It has since become very useful as a heat diffuser for the range in my renter, whose small burner has a very small adjustment capacity. It’s also a perfect comal for one tortilla at a time. With commodity prices what they are, it...

Re: Scratch and Dent Single Bevel Chopper King
I have one! Not a second, though, so I paid the princely sum of $30. It came sharp, but at 20x the edge looks uneven … lotsa burr I think. I plan to make me some Southern fried chicken soon, so I’ll probably clean that edge up on a 1k before portioning my yardbird. (Anyone else buy food items primar...

Re: What did you cook today?
Holey cheeseburgers!
I found perhaps the best burger bun in the form of these Bagel Thins. I divided 3/4 lb of moo in two and built my cheese&mushrooms stacks. Patties were too big to fit in my skillet together so I cooked them serially.

Re: Looking for some knife recommendations
Thank you Sam! I never heard of rust inhibiting paper before, hmm. I'll be sure to dry the knives well before using the guards, thanks for the tip! What state do you live in? The state of disrepair.
