There is one thing posted in that link that is not totally accurate. How do I test my slow cooker’s cooking temperature? Using an instant read thermometer will ensure that your unit is up to temperature. Crock-Pot® slow cookers reach the simmer point and stabilize on both High and Low at about...

I don't know that anyone is going to be able to give you a good answer for this question since you are trying to read someone else's mind. From what I read, one of the worst faults you can exhibit when applying for a job is "NOT" following directions. CV may mean different things to different...

I've never even heard of Windmill knives?? There are plenty of good imported and American-made knives available so I wonder what is so great about Windmill knives that you have to have them?? I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a "classic kitchern knife"; but if it is your basic chefs...

I agree wholeheartedly!! I was a little shocked when I first signed on here at the number of forums. Not sure I ever remember seeing a discussion forum that had more forums. In fact, there might be some merit in considering reducing the number of forums??

Where do I apply?? :mrgreen::rofl::mrgreen::rofl::mrgreen:

And some additional thoughts. I went back and reread the original question and all of the responses and decided my first comments were a little off base. Then I spent a little time nosing around the Internet to see if I could find anything that would help. As everyone has pointed out, you need...

Hmmmmm?? Came back to see what was happening here and what sort of response my reply had elicited if any and discovered my reply was gone.....GRRRRR!! Well, it wasn't really gone........I realized I had written my response in my word processor since it was a long reply and those sometimes get...

Larry: This may come a little late in the day; but I'm sort of conservative, I guess, and think you can't get a better cookie than one from the recipe on the Nestle's Toll House bag!! That being said, if you want to jazz them up a little, I would suggest the following. Talk with your friend...

I'm a fan of cast iron and have used it for years. That being said, you still have to be careful as you can ruin (warp) a cast skillet if you let it get too hot for too long. Every stove heats a little differently, so I can't offer you specific settings. You will just have to experiment a...

I don't know exactly what the problem is; but I just read an article the other day that "chocolate chips" (and presumably white chocolate chips)(Nestle's) are specially formulated so that they won't melt and lose their shape when used in cookies. Might be better to purchase bar or block...

You might want to read this comment on "SNOPES" about the pancake deaths. snopes.com: Pancake Mix and Allergic Reaction Personally, I would not be afraid of an expired mix if were still sealed in its original package. OTOH. if it looked a little green, probably would be best to discard it...

Not exactly what you were asking for; but how about a recipe for Cuatro Leches Cake ??:wink: This recipe gets rave reviews in the Dallas areea. Here is a link to the web site which I posted cause I thought some would like to see what else was available from this outstanding bakery...

Actually, a yellow/orange flame means there is not enough oxygen available and the flame will be producing carbon monoxide gas.....not good in excess!! Check out this web site Riverside County Fire Department - Natural Gas and call your gas company immediately!!!

Gas can be a dangerous cooking medium!! You need to call the gas company right now and chat with them even if the problem is not currently showing up. Better safe than sorry!! Are you on bottled gas (propane) or a commercial natural as line?

I agree!! If I purchase something on the recommendation of others.....friend, Amazon rating, Internet forum discussion, etc. .....then I purchase wherever I can find the product with the best price. If I need to see the product in person and handle it or whatever and ask questions of a sales...
