Thought experiment.
I know someone who lives near an ostrich farm and can get me fresh eggs.

I know I can SV normal eggs, but an ostrich egg would probably be too large in diameter to work, right?

I really want a giant soft boild egg seveeal people can share now...

Also, fish is incredible when cooked via sous vide.
It feels like easy mode for cooking meats and hitting the perfect temperature and texture

Puddle cookers,
I just bought a Foodsaver Game Sealer for $55 on sale. I've heard that the precut 3 side sealed bags are much less hassle than the rolls. Any recommendations for gallon vacuum bags from Amazon?

I puddled some chicken at 150 with lime and chili to shred into a salad. It was great.

I cut the lime into round slices and threw the whole thing in. So, yeah, zest and unjuiced lime

my sous vide containers are real small or way too big. I use a gallon sized container for steaks or a 6 gallon stockpot for anything that's too big for that. I really should get a correctly sized cambro so I don't have to heat 4 gallons of water to sous vide medium to large sized stuff.

I made Kenji's lengua tacos
https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2010/12/sous-vide-tacos-de-lengua-tongue-recipe.html

They were pretty good. My wife and two of three kids were horrified by the appearance of the cow tongue and refused to eat it. Cowards!
That leaves me and the baby eating lengua tacos all day.

I puddle cooked some steaks for the family last night. I was at my parents' house, and hoo boy, searing steaks on a pan on the stove is really not pleasant when you don't have a hood venting to the outside!



"Can you make mine medium instead?"
"I don't know how" :shrug:

Give ghee a shot. I don't understand why it isn't the #1 go-to for these sears

It really is #1. Trader Joe's has good prices on it

I've started to see pre-prepared ghee at my local grocery store in jars but I'm waiting for them to make a viscous version that gets extruded from a nozzle on an aerosol can: Ghee-wiz.

I'm going to try a fermented tomato and cabbage recipe so I can throw them at you

I still don't get it. Wooosh I guess.

A dozen dozens is 144, which is a gross.
288 eggs is two gross.

Here's what you need to know about hard water and immersion cookers.

If it makes you feel better, ICs don't really have innards to get things sucked into.



There's some heating element tubes, a high water and low water sensor, and there's a little impeller with no moving parts (the moving parts are far away from the water up inside the non-immersible part). If something gross happens, you can take off the outer sleeve and clean off everything, but you'd have to do something weird to even need to do that.

My water sucks and I have to take mine apart to de-calcify it every once in a blue moon, but it just needs a little bit of a vinegar soak and it's shiny and perfect again.

That's it. The pictured IC is an Anova. I have one and it's super easy to clean. Mine is a wifi/bluetooth model that I bought because it was higher wattage, and I've never used the wifi/bluetooth functionality past the first day. This isn't like smoking a brisket where you'll want to adjust temps at different times during long cooks. You kinda just set temp once and let it run for almost all recipes.

I'd usually do an all day boil with corned beef and then add cabbage carrots and potatoes at the end.
Used a pressure cooker last time and it was excellent.
