Yes, you are absolutely right. The trick to build flavor is less yeast = a longer fermentation. I only use a minimum of instant yeast in my pizza dough (as noted elsewhere here). And, for convenience's sake, I've halved it, if needed, so I'll have a longer fermentation so the dough and I come...

Clint, you might get more input on your sausage maker question if you started a new thread such as "need meat grinder information" or something like that. It will get more attention than being in this thread. I would think that a stand-alone meat grinder would be faster and more powerful than...

I bought my Kitchen Aid in the 1960s!!! At that time it was still being manufactured by Hobart! Hobart knew how to make mixers, that's for sure. It got a good workout in the early 2000s when I tested (and re-tested) all the bread recipes for 2 award-winning bread cookbooks. I too have quite...

Len, it's good that you contacted the company. To look on the bright side, if more people would do that, but many are not as experienced and well-informed as you are to notice the details. Good for you. Enough to make a company change its formula? Maybe, if enough people would respond as you...

Len, I see that Clint is in Utah and you're in Ontario and might not have access to the following products, or perhaps they have different names in Canada. White whole wheat flour (really whole white-wheat flour) is a true whole-wheat flour, complete with the bran, endosperm and germ, only it...

Clint, first, you won't see most of the recipes from the books on the their site for obvious reasons. You might check out their books at your library or their Indices at Amazon to see what they contain. I know that they have at least 2 everyday 100% whole-wheat sandwich breads and some that...

Clint, have you looked into: Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day? It can't get any easier than that and you will have enough dough for several days and you don't even need a mixer; however, you do need some refrigerator space. I've been playing with their breads for a while. I've made a few of...

What do you think of making the whole batch of broth and freezing it for use in French Dip Sandwiches? It's really hard to get the amount of "jus" right for the sandwiches when one has so little drippings from roasting the beef. Rita

I'm so priveliged to contribute a little to Steve Dixon's help. Even if one is bad off, there is always someone who is needier. I can't imagine losing everything. Chris is a great humanitarian for doing this. Thank you, Chris. You make a great website even better by adding heart. Rita

You might consider checking out a really good, affordable, recipe management program that can be shared: http://www.mastercook.com/ Mastercook has recently been under new management and they are adding good stuff (apps) on almost a weekly basis. I have to say that if something doesn't work...

If your rolls are browning too much on the bottom, you can either move them up a level in the oven or try double-panng them. This will probably take the place of the air cushioned pans and you probably already have more sheet pans to use. Love those sheet pans; I use them for so...

If memory serves, Chris Allingham painted a WSM bright red and offered it in a drawing a few years back....called it The Redhead I think. It was a sight to behold! Maybe he'll chime in on how he did it. Rita

I had a mouse run out of my Genesis when I opened the door one day. The next day I lifted the lid, and there he was again, on top of the burner covers, feasting off the underside of my grates. I opened the door under the grill, turned on a burner to low on the opposite side of the grill from...

Thank you Mark. That gives me a lot to go on. When I do chuck roasts, there is usually more liquid. I'll go with the flow! I just love the chile blend. Rita

Mark, your shredded beef "tastes" great in my mind. I've been looking for a good beef mole and yours hit my taste buds right. Please tell us what you did with those luscious juices I see in the pan. Were there only enough juices left to barely moisten the meat or did you defat them and...

For those of us who are interested in the Wokmon, here is the latest information. I wonder how long this next step (product testing) will take before he is able to start mass production. Rita ------------------- WokMon Update Hi everyone. The WokMon factory samples just came in! Now product...

Speaking about Camp Chef, I saw one at our Atlanta Costco this week, a 3-burner model. Jeff, I did contact GE and got a lukewarm reception. She wouldn’t say that one “cannot” wok on the range, nor would she say anything negative. She really danced around the issue and was delighted that our...

John, thanks for the reply. I'll have to check the flame in my water heater to see what it looks like....for the first time! :) Jeff, the wok ring is a long story; I'll try to shorten it. I went to buy a wok ring for my stove after it was installed during an out-of-town family emergency when...

John, thanks for the suggestion of the Camp Chef stove. The reviews are quite good I see, and also for wokking on it. The price seems quite reasonable. I'm considering a Camp Chef 2-burner stove. After being assured at the appliance store that my GE Monogram (5 years old now) with sealed...

Ha, ha, Phil. If you luck out, you'll get a cashier who will apply the $5 coupon to something slightly less than $15. We have 2 BBBs fairly near home but one has employees that are a joy to work with and keep you coming back to that particular store. They must have an incredible, savvy...
