What did you cook or eat today? (October 2025)

I have one of those, a V-slicer. I love it.

What sizes of DO’s do you have? Maybe you’ll have to split it between two?

We're good. Everything fit.
More to follow ;)

The mandolin is a Borner. I looked it up on Amazon and it might be Swiss.
I just know I had a hard time getting it apart and I'm sure understanding the words on it might have helped, lol.
 
Nasi goreng, krupuk, fried eggs
And I cooked and ate while watching Holland beat Finland in soccer :)

That’s what I have. Truth is, it doesn’t get great reviews, but I like it.

Not sure if we have the same model, but this video shows the one I have, and it’s oddly soothing to watch:

As to what I ate today - I just had several slices of buttered homemade bread and some Colby cheese.

Hey! Thanks for that!
The only tears we'll be crying are tears of joy!
(some will get that ;) )

I've got an OXO I've had forever with all the markings worn off. I went to use it last time and had to really *look* at the grooves and places to press to see how it came apart to get the various razor sharp blades out/in. Lots of different blades and cutting depths on that one.

Exactly!
There was the smallest tab in the corner that had to be lifted to even get the mandolin out of it's protective plastic framework.

One of those things you wonder why you bought it until you need one.

The first 30 minute cook down is done

CI Cast Iron
PC Pressure Cooker
;)

So this has been going on since I sliced the onions.

We've definitely discussed that before, not sure if we had a dedicated thread though. I remember in recipes people asking about EVOO, LOL.

"LOL"? 🤔

:laugh:

Who started with EVOO? Was that a Rachel Ray thing?
She had to cram all those words into 30 minutes? :laugh:

Meanwhile...
I just started the next two hours, with the lid off. Stirring every 30 min.
It seems to have gotten more red. Not sure why. Those cherry tomatoes have been dissolved for a while. Except for some skins.

You can't say (type) her name here. You might invoke demons! :laugh:
