It looks just like regular milk but has a stronger grassy barnyard flavor. Still 90% like cow milk. Nothing like goats milk. Its not bad.

Agree with both. I only wish my kitchen was bigger so I could leave my m&p out on the bench. Possibly I need to reassess what I have allowed bench space to make room for one.

This was really delicious.
I tried this as well for breakfast, I usually try to avoid creating a crust on eggs, but I will definitely be doing them like this from now on

ooooh, I love my eggs crispy on the edges like that but I usually end up overcooking the yolks in the process, nicely done

Kenji recommends straining eggs (carefully) with a fine strainer before frying since most of the white is actually water. I bet this would work great combined with the crispy egg recipe. Maybe not though, if the thin crispy edges are what you're going for.

The other nice thing about this technique is that it results in a finished product which look like this (from The Food Lab):

In fact Kenji recommends doing that in his article on crispy eggs

Fastastic egg work fellas. I love the crispy edge/yolk combo on a toasted/buttered English Muffin to absorb it all.

Wanted to make Indian since I got my Instant Pot so did a simple Chana masala tonight. Started with pressure cooking dry garbanzo's for 40 mins and a 20 min natural pressure release.

For the dish you basically make a tomato and onion gravy with peppercorns, cloves, garlic, ginger and bay leaf. Add to that your chickpeas, Chana masala spice and chili powder. I also added potato.



Once the gravy was made and beans and spuds added I pressure cooked for 20 mins and let the pressure release naturally. Topped with sliced onion, cilantro and a squirt of lemon juice

If so, how long have you had it and are you happy with it? There are a ton of reviews where people mention it craps out fast but usually after the 30 day warranty ends

I did crispy eggs for breakfast but Im not sure about the mess that ensues after dropping an egg into oil that hot.

Yep. Only had it like 4 weeks and used it maybe 5 times so can't speak to durability. Happy with it so far.

The mess in my case is just some of the cooking oil spread all over the stove, which is easily wiped off.

I've been wondering if the payoff is worth the mess.

Splatter screen might be a good investment. Very cheap, and will save your life when you're cooking pasta sauce whilst wearing a white shirt!

thx for the heads up. Hopefully you'll use the hell out of it and report back letting us know its holding up. I saw what looked like an exact replica with a different name at Sam's yesterday for $89 but the reviews were similar so it sounds like its a crap shoot whether you're buying a lemon or not.
