Do you mean just ACBradio? Or do you mean that the cooking demonstration was

I am an avid QVC shopper and just got a message that all of their pressure
cookers will be on payments. Can anyone comment on the accessibility of a
pressure cooker? I am totally blind and live alone (now that my kids are
grown and married!).
Thanks!

Hi, I have been cooking bacon in the oven -- especially when I need to
prepare a lot of bacon for a large group -- for a long time. It
doesn't seem to make an unusual mess in the oven, BUT BE VERY CAREFUL
WHEN YOU TAKE IT OUT! Use thick, protective oven mits, and do it
slowly.

Hello,
I have never cooked bacon in the oven; does the fat splatter and make a mess in
the oven?
I have cooked bacon in my electric skillet and just turned it with a fork or
spatula.

I know people who use a ricer are dedicated to that way, but I love, love, love
my stand mixer. It makes fluffy mashed potatoes and my family inhales them.
Sometimes I drop a clove of garlic in the water when I cook the potatoes;
sometimes I add chives or sour cream or cheese when I mash them.
There are many different delicious ways to fix potatoes. I like trying new
ones. It's great to share ideas this way.

Hello, everyone!
The way I cook bacon, I have a pan with a rack, and I use the convection
setting on my Farberware toaster oven and just cook it in 20 minutes. I
have even found a way to get turkey bacon to come out crisp, although it
does not taste as good as regular, it is lower in fat, and
OK, that's fine. Hope the person gets back to you about the cookbook.

I use fresh herbs in salads and when roasting vegetables. Sage is
wonderful in roast chicken. Just pull off a few leaves, rub then
between your palms then tuck them unfder the skin of chicken breasts
or legs before roasting/baking.

I have been given some pots of fresh herbs: two kinds of basil, oregano,

How high did you cook it at? I cook it at medium hi and start heating the pan
as I am putting it in.

I haven't found a way to duplicate the sizzling sound and crispness of frying
bacon. If you're not good at turning and lifting the bacon with a fork, you
risk a fire. I use the microwave cooker. It does get the fat out of the
bacon and comes out meaty/chewy.

Hi
I use a heavy-duty baking sheet and cooling rack. I line the sheet with
foil, insert the cooling rack, spray it lightly with cooking spray and lay
the bacon strips on the rack. Since I buy the thick cut bacon and like it
crispy, I bake it at 450 F for 25-30 minutes.

I have made this recipe; it works just fine without the yeast. In Texture it's
like how a quick bread would be, like pumpkin bread. Sugaring the loaf pan
after greasing, before putting the batter in, really adds to this too.

Actually I only use bacon in a recipe where it's not that crucial how very well
done it is. I like eating it out but try to limit my intake as much as I love
it!

I'm just double checking. I have some other Friendship Bread recipes in my

If yours works out well without the yeast, that would be great.

Juliette, I had to cringe as soon as I read that you used one of those thin
aluminum pans. I’m so sorry you were hurt. One needs something sturdy for the
bacon.

I think it was supposed to be Rahman noodles. If it's what my son and
daughter-in-law used to prepare for a fast meal, they come in a small square
with a seasoning packet to which you just add some water.
