I've been messing around with my air fryer. I cooked some meat balls in the fryer last night. It did a pretty good job. Unfortunately, I could only fit 4 at a time.

Are those Popeye sized meatballs, or just a tiny appliance?

What size is your air fryer?
 
Chicken wings are really good in an air fryer as are other foods.

Forget wings, a ukelele air frier can only cook two shrimpy balls

I made wings on mine once and I would not call it a success. It's a good
sized air fryer but it wasn't really big enough for a decent serving of
wings. They were too close together and touching, so they came out soft
and greasy. I imagine that I could have cooked half as many at a time,
but it took 18 minutes for that batch and taking close to 40 minutes to
cook a serving of wings is not acceptable.

This is preposterous: "The variety of sushi served with raw sea food has
given rise to the notion that sushi is any dish served with raw fish."
 
I have NEVER heard anyone think that any type of raw fish is sushi. The
writer makes up some nonsense just to sound smart and educate us all?
 
What a jerk.

I think lots of people who never eat it, think that sashimi is sushi,
think that sushi is raw fish, have never heard of sashimi, think that
chopsticks are used to knit little Chinese sweaters and any other
confusions you can think of.

haha! thanks. sort of i do get it, but mainly i like
sashimi over sushi because i'm not a huge fan of rice
and from what i learned years ago sushi is that which
uses the vinegared rice.
 
maybe that has changed since then.
 
the main thing i liked about sashimi was that you get
a nice sized bite of very tender meat that is as good as
a nice rare steak but even better. i just wish it wasn't
so polluted and depleting the oceans to eat some of it
but i so rarely have it i'm not depleting much of anything.

my favorite sushi is in fact the smoked eel.
the other thing about sushi i'm not much a fan of
fish eggs.

Actually Real Gefilte fish is a million times better than ANY of those
fercocktah Asian fish concoctions... Asians never learned how to
properly cook fish. that's why they suffer eating fish raw... plus
they're ascared of seafood.

I love cauliflower. Roasted or steamed florets, a baked whole head
patted with buttered herbed breadcrumbs is sublime. I'm not interested
in pretending cauliflower a substitute for flour or rice.

You can call it whatever you want. Enjoy it if you like. I love fish
and most seafood but I will never eat it raw. I'm not saying you
shouldn't, just that I wouldn't.

I don't forbid my cat from going anywhere. There's no reason for her to
hang out in the kitchen. There's no food on the counters. She gets fed
in the bedroom; her food is stored in a cabinet in the master bathroom
off the bedroom. But hey, everyone encourage Greg Morrow spreading his
silly stories.

I'd take the baked cheesy macaroni (Velveeta melted in a white sauce)
made with small pasta shells. Topped with breadcrumbs mixed with grated
parm sprinkled on top of the pasta & cheese. You may keep the pepperoni.

If he limits himself to an Aunt Jemima cookie jar in your case, you
should count yourself lucky :)
 
And why people take stalkers like Greg Sorrow and Hank Rogers
seriously I'll never know. RFC is full of surprises.

ditto, i don't click blind links very often these days.
for one reason, not enough time, but also i just don't
want to support click-bait spammers.
 
today we had a sirloin steak. Mom said she wanted
a steak. i pan fried it with a little butter to just
medium. juicy, a bit of pink in the center but not
dried out. she did not want any garlic salt or any
spices on it so i had to hold off on the garlic salt
until after it was cooked.
 
i also made a baked potato, mushrooms and onions.
first time in a long time we had sour cream. normally
we have whole milk plain yogurt on hand and that is
good enough for sour cream substitute.
 
since Mom did not want the onions and mushrooms
cooked enough to carmelize them i put some aside for
me to use to deglaze the pan and have them as a
part of my meal but not hers.
 
all worked out well, we were both happy and well
fed.
 
the steak was a little over a lb and about $6 so
not too bad for a sirloin these days.
 
i actually prefer a ground chuck burger over many
steaks but this was a nice change of pace.

I much prefer a home ground chuck burger myself... and I don't much
care for sirloin steak... I consider sirloin better for braising as a
stew meat. I'll somtimes cook a NY Strip or Porterhouse but we don't
eat steak very often, after 2-3 times it gets boring. For beef we
much prefer a thick beef barley 'shroom soup made with top round. I
keep a selection of dehy 'shrooms on hand, they have much more intense
flavor than fresh 'shrooms... and dehy 'shrooms keep in the cupboard
for years and years. Actually I stopped buying those tasteless fresh
button mushrooms years ago, they're a big rip off... canned are
better.

Well fuck that shit, I do speak for everyone in the US. Everybody in the US thinks that J-quan don't speak for nobody but her crazy-ass self. Everybody in the US thinks that she should just stick with her country club menus but my guess is that she got her crazy ass kicked out of the country club for her shitty food reviews.

I'd have to rent or borrow an electric power washer and this solution did
an amazing and quick job. I give it 2 thumbs up!
