Snails - Response on Threads Part 3

[AttyPops]

darn it, atty! i know you read back and are well aware of the mistreatment i'm getting from vz!

~~~~~ @ catt, mad, frannie and that atty man who isn't a ray of sunshine today

i've worked outside and it's now 95 degrees - i'm overdue for a nap!

vz mistreatment? Par for the (tibs) course! (unfortunately for you)

Have a good nap Tibs.

No dissecting today- grant writing instead. Should be done with it by the end of today. I'd prefer dissecting.

Dinner sounds lovely. Especially as i eat my regular lunch of cheddar, triskets, and carrots.

I found a $199.00 sous vide device that you clip onto any pot of water. There's actually a couple of them. One made by people that make lab equipment. The trend has been for falling prices and competition....both of which I'm in favor of in this case!

Anyway...best way to cook on the planet, IMO. Impossible to screw it up if you follow basic rules. Fantastic results.

$199 is out of my current price range...so I do it manually with a candy thermometer and monitoring every 10 minutes for 4 hours. Sigh. But all it costs me is a zip lock bag and time.

You're welcome to vicariously help yourself.
Sorry about the grant writing. Hope it's approved. Also sorry about the crackers for lunch. However, I'm a fan of crackers and cheese too. Just not every day.
Guess I'm a bit of a foodie.

I had to google 'sous vide'

I'd be more of a foodie if it just didn't involve cooking.

Lost power. Back now.

 

[MadOzodi]

About to leave work...it's my parents' 49th Wedding Anniversary and I get to tag along for a free dinner, w00t!

BTW, anybody want some ramie? (did I ask that already?)

 

[CES]

(all the miss-positioned letters are probably in the grant. But yep, I had others proof it for me, because you get to a point where all you see is what you think you wrote, not what is really on the page)

Happy Anniversary Mad's parents

 

[tiburonfirst]

glad your power's back, frannie!

happy anniversary to mad's parents!


and i know my thermometer is not in the shade anymore but 118 looks downright nasty!

That's the beauty of it. You don't "cook" it. You just put it in a bag and soak it. Sear afterward if you want.
There's even a fried chicken recipe where you "soak" the chick for a few hours at whatever temp is right for chicken. Then coat it and give it a light deep fry. No stringy fried chicken. No under-cooked parts.

And you can hold the food in many cases for ...days (check safety rules).

Anyway, enough about that.

Hi snails.

Ramie....no thanks. Still using silica.

 

[tiburonfirst]

[FranC]

I'm here,Tib

 

[tiburonfirst]

me too, frannie but gotta keep an eye on the co-op thread

 

[FranC]

Busy co-op is good.

 

[tiburonfirst]

about 100 mods ordered but scrambling now to meet moq on some options

 

[FranC]

Sounds like it's going pretty well.

 

[tiburonfirst]

it is - but with 3 color choices and 2 different styles things can get complicated

 

[FranC]

Yup they can....

 

[tiburonfirst]

and it'll be my pleasure to sort and pack
