    Butifarra Soledeña

    I first encountered butifarra in while wandering through the aisles of Barcelona's iconic market, La Boqueria. While in the pork section, there was a stand selling butifarra. I placed an order and received a plate with 2 links, each about 6" in length. Accompanying the sausage was a serving of a...

    Looking for a new Sous vide cooker

    The first thing I'd recommend is to contact Anova and explain your issue. They may replace the unit like they did for me about 6 years ago when a circulator I had crapped out due mainly to my own stupidly. If not, I recommend getting another Anova unit.

    Butifarra Soledeña

    Excellent post, IAC. Very well done. I've had butifarra before, but that was in Catalonia, Spain. Great street vendor snack. Where in Colombia are from? Starting back in the 1980's, I traveled there many times in the past, but not to Soledad. Primarily Bogata, Medellin, and Cartagena. Love the...

    I know there's Hellmann' and Dukes but............

    I'm in the DIY camp when it comes to mayo. Both my wife and I are products of the North and it was always Hellman's. Then, we bought a second home in Florida 25 years ago and I heard several people mention Duke's favorably. While at Publix one day I bought a jar of Dukes, along with some deli...

    SV: Seasoning Frozen meat before sous vide cooking

    BHFG - As crazymoon said, go with "A". When I cook steaks SV, I season with salt, pepper, a couple smashed garlic cloves and a and a few dashes each of Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and fish sauce. There's no need to interrupt the cooking process for that. For steaks, figure on about adding...

    PigSkin Pickem (Football), Choose Winners Only.. No Drafting Crap ..

    Thanks for the quick response, but I'm looking for a NCAAF pool to replace one I participated in, and frequently was a winner, for a dozen years. The guy who ran it developed some medical issues and closed it down.

    Looking for a new toaster oven

    I'm a long term Breville owner, and have been satisfied with all of our Breville purchases, one being a toaster oven which replaced our traditional oven for about 80% of the needs of just the two of us. We had that oven for 6 years that expired about 3 months ago by accident. I was working at...

    just say no to boar's head

    Sorry, but you're incorrect . Boar's Head is still owned and controlled by member's of the founding family, the Brunkhorsts. In the early 2000's they moved all of their primary operations from NYC to Sarasota, FL which, as I was told, was done to be closer to their largest customer, the Publix...

    Vitamix Blender Input Anyone?

    Well, to be blunt, if I was in the market for a high-speed blender I would jump on this offer immediately. A new E320 for $243 is one hell of a deal. Your only regret is that you'll wonder why you didn't go high-speed a long time ago. My daughter and her fiancee purchased a new house a couple...
