    ISO easy roasted potato recipe

    One thing you will run into when doing a quantity that large in the oven is the moisture factor. That many spuds release a lot of steam... You will need to crack your oven door open just a bit to allow all the steam out, or the potatoes will not get crispy...:chef:

    Fish Taco question?

    A fresh fish taco is a wonderful thing...but like most classics, it must be kept simple...:wink: Save the capers for another project, your acid component should be a squirt of lime... If you must add other things, try a slice of avocado (or a spoon of guac) and maybe a little pico...:chef:

    More Zojirushi questions...

    We just picked up an NS-LC05, and really like it so far...:wink: Couple of quick questions though: 1. How does the rice bowl hold up to the dishwasher long term? 2. Has anyone successfully cooked lentils in it? Thanks

    Mashed Potato tastes plain. Why?

    We like mashed potatoes several ways...from really decadent, to really frugal... For the frugal (healthier) version, we use some nice chicken broth instead of the milk/cream...and lots of cracked black pepper for punch...:smile:

    Polenta vs Grits, is it the same thing?

    I had this dish as an appetizer at a s****y cafe in Atlanta over the weekend, and it was truly amazing...:chef: *I have no idea why the auto-censor is bleeping out "s w a n k y"... LOL

    Pampered Chef

    Wrong thread I know...but I never got on with pizza stones. Too many issues...cracking, washing etc...:neutral: Picked up a few thick quarry tiles that I lay directly on the oven rack. They survive a 500 degree oven, hold far more heat than a porous, thin, "stone", and survive spilling without...
