Re: [CnD] cleaning air fryer basket

[Stan Bobbitt via Cookinginthedark]

Hi,
I use Dawn Powerwash. It comes in a spray bottle. It is fantastic.
For most jobs you just pretty much spray, wipe, and rinse.
On tougher things you spray and let it sit for a little while, then wipe and 
rinse.

HTH,

Subject: [CnD] cleaning air fryer basket

Hello,

 

I have had my Air Fryer a few years now, and use it nearly every day, sometimes 
multiple times. To clean it I leave the basket in the drawer, and then put it 
in the sink with hot soapy water to soak it for a while until my lazy self gets 
around to cleaning. I do have a non-scratch sponge which gets the bulk of the 
stuff off the basket, inside and out, then I pull out the basket and wash the 
inside of the drawer. Sometimes after cleaning I will replace a little more 
soap water in the drawer, just barely enough to reach the basket, and actually 
turn the machine on for a few minutes to steam off the caked on items. It 
smells nice, like a dish washer, but I'm doubting steam is good for the rest of 
the machine, so  I don't do it often or for long. 

 

Anyway, I find the holes in the basket which are used to drip and let air 
circulate under the food aren't completely closed, but often the food is still 
on the edges of the holes. Using a toothpick and gently tracing the round shape 
of the edges, you can identify which are not symmetrical, and the food 
particles then fall off. It is relatively easy, but poking each, and every, 
hole is just not the way I want to spend my evenings. The holes are relatively 
large, maybe slightly smaller than the circumference of a pencil, but there's 
got to be a few hundred of them, which doesn't account for the slits on the 
sides. How do others find this chore easier? 

Thanks.

Tiffany

I haven't received any postings for over a week now. Last night I unsubscribed 
and a few minutes later I subscribed anew. Yes, and I replied to the follow up 
messages. I'm still not receiving any traffic.

Re: [CnD] omlet in a zip loc bag

[Stan Bobbitt via Cookinginthedark]

Hi,
not to be a downer or anything, but I have two sons that work at a plant that 
makes plastic bags for all sorts of products. They tell me that unless the bag 
is specially made, (coated with a special compound or treatment), that it is 
not necessarily safe for boiling or baking. They say that plastic byproducts 
such as (BPA's) can leak into the food. They told me to check the packaging on 
zip lock bags etc and it should say whether the bags are safe for boiling, 
baking, what have you. My GF and I have been searching for such bags. We found 
some at Target but I haven't bought any to try as of yet.

FYI,
Stan B

ZIPLOC OMELET

 

(This works great !!! Good for when all your family is together...?

The best part is that no one has to wait for their special omelet !!!) Have 
guests write their name on a quart-size Ziploc freezer bag with permanent 
marker.

 

Crack 2 eggs (large or extra-large) into the bag (not more than 2) shake and 
stir to combine them.

 

Put out a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, 
tomato, hash browns, salsa, etc.

 

Each guest adds prepared ingredients of choice to their bag and shake.

Make sure to get the air out of the bag and zip it up.

 

Place the bags into rolling, boiling water for exactly 13 minutes. You can 
usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot. Or, make another pot of boiling water.

 

Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to 
be amazed and enjoy.

 

Nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the 
process and a great conversation piece.

Re: [CnD] MicroWave oven recommendations.

[Stan Bobbitt via Cookinginthedark]

I have a Hamilton Beach microwave. I bought over lays from Halo system:
https://www.etsy.com/shop/HALOSystem
They are inexpensive and work very well. Oh, and my GF tells me that they are 
aesthetically pleasing. I also have a set for the oven on my digital range.

Ok, first, I know about the talking one, use to own the "TEMO," which had been 
sold by many stores for as little as $79, but, ours, is going out, starting to 
smell electronically, so I need recommendations for ones which are blind 
friendly. I don't need something miniature, :) but good sized, but user 
friendly for us to use by your definition, or, easily modified to use, or maybe 
even with some kind of braille overlay either makeable or constructible. :) I 
presume that most of the later ones have menus of some type which aren't easily 
feasible without sight, so, recommendations are requested!
We have an LG 1200 watt now which we made a braille overlay for.
THANK YOU!
