Really, really good and pretty simple to make. It called for frozen green peas
or any other vegetable of your choice. I chose a cup of frozen cubed hash browns
as my addition. It also called for a teaspoon and a half of chopped fresh thyme,
but all I had was McCormick's dried thyme and I used a slightly rounded teaspoon.
Dried herbs are stronger than fresh and I believe I could have gotten away with
just 3/4 teaspoon.
 
It also called for 2 teaspoons of kosher salt but that is something I do not
stock. I used a slightly rounded teaspoon of regular salt it was the perfect
amount; not lacking salt nor too salty.
 
A store bought crust topped this pie because I am lazy.

kosher salt is salt by another name, you would never tell the
difference in a dish, it is basically a marketing scheme. Edible salt
is sodium chloride. That means sea salt, table salt, kosher salt, ALL
salt. The only salt that may have a slightly different flavor is
iodized salt.
 
Bummer I guess no one read my other post.

Whether you can taste the difference or not . . .
Kosher salt is larger grained than ordinary table salt and weighs far
less for an equal volume of table salt. So substituting one for the
other means you need to make adjustment in amounts.

so basically what you are saying is it is coarse sea salt?
 
except kosher salt may contain additional chemicals. That is not
something I would want in my salt. If the recipe calls for kosher salt
just use coarse sea salt....
 
Kosher salt is sodium chloride without iodine but may contain
anticaking agents
 
Sea salt is by far the most natural and best tasting salt because it
contains no added chemicals

I could not get into using a pressure cooker, the cooking options are
too limited, I much prefer an airfryer.

Kroger Salt, Coarse, Kosher
Ingredients: salt.
 
Diamond Crystal Kosher Salt
Ingredients: salt.
 
Morton Coarse Kosher Salt
Ingredients: Salt, Yellow Prussiate of Soda (Anti-Caking Agent).
 
Redmond Real Salt, Kosher Salt
Ingredients: Ancient Sea Salt.
 
<http://www.fooducate.com/app#!page=search&term=kosher+salt>
 
So, only 1 out of these 4 contains anti-caking agent and 1 even
contains ancient salt. I guess that salt was already around when Moses
parted the seas!

I'm quite pleased with it as non only is it a pressure cooker, it will steam,
bake, broil, and air fry.

People in Europe talk the same way about Americans doing European

It's called "armchair traveling." Sit at home, eat nachos and see
all the places in the world without wasting all the time sitting
in airports waiting for the canceled flights. :)
 
I don't need to actually travel to and stand beside Ayers Rock to
appreciate it. How about you with that one? It's your country.
Have you been there? Any urge to physically go there?

All a matter of preference ... a bit like those who like to use chopsticks

The Golden Gate is a most wonderful bridge. I love that bridge. My wife loves that bridge too. She used to live right next to it in the Presidio. It was an imposing presence in her life.

Well, I've been chased by a brown snake on our property once and
they're extremely venomous. It turned out I could run much faster than
I thought.

Sure Gary; or you watch some porn and kid yourself that's just like
having a relationship with a real person.

One of my favorite shows on Smithsonian channel is Ariel America.
 
You can see a lot on TV, especially with the big screens we can get now.
You see a lot, but the experience is not the same. I've been to about
35 states and 6 other countries. There is a difference in experiencing
the customs, the people, the history. Moving about with the locals,
shopping in the grocery stores, getting cash in a bank that has been in
business before America was discovered.
 
Much of the US is the same, you can walk into a grocery store in New
York or Oklahoma and see little difference, but not so in England or
Italy. I like walking down a street that is 800 years old and stopping
for a coffee in a little shop.

They make it way too complicated. Just use what you feel like, I'd
say.

Halleluja!!!!! At last! The voice of common sense and reason.
 
Really, what one person prefers is absolutely NOTHING to do with anyone else
unless it affects them.
 
If they can show how it affects them I will listen, until then, they can
bugger off!!!

Yup! Theirs is pretty basic so no faucet outside and now shower
inside. It fascinates me with the fun creativity.

I've made vichysoisse twice (using the NYT recipe). It's supposed
to be pureed and chilled. Not me. I keep it chunky and serve it
hot. Very good.
 
As Jill would say, "I can't imagine..." I can't imagine eating a
cold soup and also not one that you could eat/drink with an evil,
sea turtle killing straw. heheh
 
Anyway, I do like that soup but I don't do the last parts...puree
then chill. sorry.

You got one thing right - "small" fortune. I've earned my money over
the years through hard work and long hours. No jealousy here. I have
more in the bank than you inherited.
 
Remember that you put this all out there for all to read for some reason
