Comments (149)Shirley, I am so terribly sorry to hear about the loss of your brother. You and your family are in my prayers. Melinda, Fran, and Sassy, thanks for catching those woopsies. I've done it a few times in my recipes too. Dianne, your daylily is beautiful and the Riverwalk is so peaceful looking. How lucky you are to have that near you! Thank you everyone for all the wonderful recipes! I am so excited and proud of everyone for all their contributions! This is a great bunch of people and I can't wait to get the finished product out to all of you who made this possible. Sassy, I wanted to say a special thank you to you sweetie. This was a fantastic idea and is a wonderful way of pulling together all these amazing people from all over the country. You are a great lady. Thank you! Ok, I am off to vote and then get back to sorting the recipes. Keep sending those pictures to me. You can post here or email them to me. Thanks gang!

Comments (25)gma_j, I see now you were referring to setting the probe temperature. I haven't used my Miele probe; I use the speed oven for smaller things, where a probe is less useful. But it really does snap in place with a loud click; so if yours didn't, that could be the problem. Larger things generally go into my E'lux oven; that probe works fine. The speed oven pre-heats quickly, so if something fits its faster to cook it there. Its useful for re-heating (use MasterChef, if you know the weight), as well as stuff like baked potatoes (in combination mode), and for roasting, braising, or convection baking small portions. I've rarely used defrost, or broil (except to finish browning something like ribs). The Miele's manuals leave much to be desired. While we wait for mojavean or someone smart to write a decent Miele speed oven cookbook, a variety of recipes on the Miele site can get you started on some dishes (see link). Here is a link that might be useful: Miele recipies...See MoreCooking the turkey the day before
Comments (24)We had cooking contests. It had to end, It got ugly. The first year it was just a dessert contest. Someone casually mentioned "do we vote on presentation, too?" Sure, of course, I said. My banana cream pie with macadamia crust lost. The person who casually mentioned do we vote on presentation, won, with a cheesecake in a spun sugar dome. However, we all felt awful since we all had to try 14 desserts. Best line of the night from my then 7yo nephew after tasting one more entry "It's delish-eee-ous. May I spit it out?" We decided savory was better. So next time we did appetizers. I did a whole diorama of a port scene, with malt milk powder over cream cheese as sand, dill for seaweed, a pretzel nugget dock, and delicate little boat shaped tarts with puffed pastry sails. Huh, I will show them. Next year someone made duck spring rolls. They made the duck first. And the wrapper dough. And the plum suace. That was the year I made cold beet soup (think Pepto Bismol) in cucumber cups that would not stand up. Not a winner. But all of that was before we got really competitive....See MoreChili sauce - panic question!
Comments (8)Holy Shite! This stuff is amazing! I tasted a bit by itself and it is truly one of the most complex and interesting condiments I have ever tasted. I will admit though, I added some allspice jsut because I love it and saw it in the recipe from the old bookbook I had. Everything else is from your recipe though.... I cant wait for Burgers over the weekend now! Thanks so much for your help :-) A...See MoreUser
