I can open mine if doing slow cooking, the lid isn't the major reason I prefer the other (shape is), it just adds to why I've never bonded to the other appliance. It's funny how you just like some things, and other things not so much.
I got an electric slow cooker/pressure cooker, but I don't like the shape of it. It's tall rather than wide. I like my oval slow cooker for lamb shanks. Also, I like the other one because it has a normal glass lid and I can look inside....
My slow cooker is one of the few things that I...
You aren't meant to take it off until it's cooled down. Mum's old one, you could sort of prop it sideways, and the steam could release gradually.
My one doesn't have that old-type vent, it has a dial thing....
You do need to keep your wits about you when you use one, but I've never been...
It makes a mess if you take the lid off before it's cooled right down and the pressure's gone down. Yes, the modern ones have it so you can't take the lid off until it's cool and the pressure has gone down. You just can't "paint the ceiling" with the modern ones like you can with the old Hawkins.
I do that with butternuts that the chooks are getting.
Roasted is tasty, I roast pumpkin for pumpkin soup. If I was going to make puree, I'd probably do it in the pressure cooker.
To cut it you need a big, heavy, sharp knife. With a decent knife, it is easy, without it, it's a nightmare.
Yes, same here, breakfast can be anything. I don't usually eat breakfast, but when I'm hungry I like savoury things, not sweet things. I like toast with a sliver of pecorino on it. I also like porridge but I don't often have it, because I don't like eating first thing.
We don't really have an "Australian breakfast" as such, breakfast items in cafes might be tea and toast, muesli, fruit platters, croissants, cereal, all sorts of things.
Yes, an English breakfast is like in the photo. A fried, big cooked breakfast. Usually bacon (I don't like it I never...
I'd just suggested it because I saw a section for recipes under the articles section and thought it would be good to have the info in one spot, both for you to link to instead of having to type it out a lot, and ease of finding it in a 1000-post threat. I have an "edit" button on my coop...
Hey ronott1, any chance you could put your instructions re the sourdough onto an article? I WILL do it one day and I won't want to make you explain it yet again to me when I do, and I know I won't be able to find the many many times you've explained it in this thread. :bow
It's the best. I used to buy a cooked chicken, have tea from it on the weekend, then sandwiches through the week, then I'd boil the bones up to make the stock for avgolemono. It really is good. I really should make some.
