I was going to say lol at having el Diablo as a brother and not having him cook but I guess it runs in the family.

Everyone's pics look great.

Until they ate it.


Really great.

Home alone with no Thanksgiving leftovers. I just have a bunch of random ingredients and nothing put together to cook, so I grabbed some things and I'm making a pizza. Fingers crossed.

M: That looks like it should come out pretty good, assuming that's balsamic vinegar and not chocolate sauce.

Hoagie: Nice! How'd you finish it? Blast in the oven?

Hoagie, one part of the green leaves I can recognize as thymine, what are other leaves?
MLYLT, how did you make the dough?

Dangit, I didn't think about chocolate sauce! I could have made a dessert pizza.

This one turned out well though.

I didn't have any yeast, so I mixed 2 eggs, flour, salt, sugar, baking powder, oil, water until I got a good dough consistency. Turned out crsipy and good.

-Flavoring for water
-Lemonade
-Face scrub
-air freshener/steam

Turkey almost is always too dry for my preferences whenever I've gone elsewhere for Thanksgiving. Did the kenji sous vide turkey and hot damn best turkey I've ever had. For the others that did it, you got any tips for rolling the turkey up? I failed miserably at that part.

El d

Finished the breast’s in a pan. The legs went under the broiler.

Lapka,

That’s sage and rosemary.

No boil noodles certainly are easier, but i feel like they result in a denser, more compressed lasagna, which isn't optimal. Maybe if I stacked the layers more gently?

How the hell long does it take to sous vide a turkey? We have been deep frying for several years with good results.

You cut it up so not long. I followed the chef steps recipe and they had me do the legs and thighs for 12hours at 151. And the breasts 8 hours at 131. (While leaving the legs in the water)

That’s way longer than necessary but there seemed to be some sort of weird turkey alchemy that took place. The meat was super firm and not what I would call “juicy” but it certainly wasn’t dry.

I was worried and somewhat expecting a slimier texture and got the exact opposite.

Do I have to have a vacuum sealer to use an Anova? Those are more expensive than the circulator.

Nope. Using ziploc bags with the water displacement method works fine. I have a vacuum sealer and there are still plenty of times I use ziploc bags, namely when I want to include a marinade in the bag. Only way to do that with a vacuum sealer is freeze the marinade with the meat in an open bag then seal it after it's frozen. Bit of a pain.
