    Jerky Jerky Jerky! (And other dried things)

    skip the dehydrator.. We never used them, even before convection ovens. Sunny days and clean sheets or wire screens for fruits and veggies. (Bring them in at night or they absorb the damp.) Oven on low overnight with a wooden spoon handle in the door for jerky or for fruits and vegetables...

    Gearing up for Thanksgiving, tell the kitchen to brace itself..

    Thanksgiving dinner here will be on Wednesday, at 2 pm. For me, that means starting preparations for the feast a day early as well, so tonight I started brining the turkey. Pretty simple formula, 1 gallon boiling water, dissolve 1 1/2 cup each table salt and brown sugar in the water, add 2...

    Fused plug adaptor

    hmm.. I dont know about fused adapters, but I have an extension cord with a built in circuit breaker. Exceed the current limit of the cord or have an appliance short out, the circuit breaker on the cord trips and can be reset instead of replacing a fuse. I find it very useful for testing...

    Do you "cheat" in the kitchen?

    toasted cheese Love it! I make them all the time in the toaster oven. Make a regular cheese sandwich, pop in the toaster oven, set for toast, outside is crisp and toasted, inside soft and fluffy. A little butter on the toasted sandwich before eating, perfection.

    Do you "cheat" in the kitchen?

    yuck, canned biscuits.. I actually have a little work around for biscuits. They always get rave reviews, even from my grandmother, who has no problem at all pointing out when something from my kitchen is lacking. Whisk together 2 cups all purpose flour, 1 Tbsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp baking...

    Afraid of gas stoves?

    pro vs home Most people wouldn't want to use the equipment pro's use. Other than the stove, its cheap, and it looks it. Nothing pretty shiny and high end to be found. Plain heavy aluminum with riveted on handles is the only cookware you are going to find in most pro kitchens. Whether the...

    Do you "cheat" in the kitchen?

    I grew up eating chocolate pie, real luscious, cooked slow,nestled in flaky crust, covered in fluffy meringue, and cooled for hours chocolate pie. Cook and serve jello pudding as a filling was considered cheating. I know how to make them. They turn out delicious. But when I want chocolate...

    serious cooks? Im from a family of serious cooks, and for 3 generations we have seriously cooked on electric. I have used commercial gas ranges in restaurant kitchens since I was 16. And I still prefer electric. I cannot think of one thing I have cooked on a gas range that was any more...

    Afraid of gas stoves?

    gas ovens.. They are terrible arent they? At the restaurant we kept having servicemen come out, who kept saying they were fine. We finally gave up, left them set at 500 degrees and remembered which areas inside were cooler and which were hotter. Horrible way to cook. Love me a nice even...

    The heating element in my Montgomery Ward dryer is kaput, unfortunately. The model is UAN-7419-80A, Serial 87J-12002, I think it's from 1977? After a quick search, it appears that the part is only available as a full kit, part number 5300142885 and only from a few sources. Most are about 100...

    West Bend Ovenette

    I had one ages ago, but it was a stovetop model, you simply adjusted your stove burner setting to control the temperature. I suppose you could keep plugging and unplugging it, but that seems like a lot of bother. I remember a device a teacher in grade school had for a hot glue gun, it was...

    Little holes in T-Shirt?

    powder detergent? I use powder, and realized some of my clothes were getting similar damage from my habit of putting the clothes in the washer, then tossing in a scoop of detergent on top, before starting the washer.
