    The Food Handling Thread

    They would all be reasonably clean but I don't think too many are at the level of a typical US chain which work at operating room levels of sterility. Wrong again, Einstein. Restaurants are not "sterile" at all, and nor are they required to be. How many restaurants autoclave their knives, or...

    help me create a dish

    wtf are you talking about? Do you know who Escoffier is? Do you know when he wrote his book? God even Julia Child's book would tell you you're wrong and that predates 1970. Here's a hint, Einstein: when you appeal to authority make sure you know what the authority says Pour la Mirepoix: - 50...

    help me create a dish

    Run that by Escoffier. Perhaps I should have said it was not common in published recipes before the 1970s. I have already conceded that celery is common. One recipe for mirepoix from a recognized authority on french cuisine is all I require to show that celery is unecessary.

I am surprised you have so little knowledge about your stock in trade. I said "celery is uneccesary" which...

    Gillette Fusion Razorblades...is there a deal?

    Rinse your razor with alcohol when you are done using it. What causes the blades to dull is not your hairs chipping the edge, but rust caused by water left on the blade. Fusion blades are stainless steel. No rust. Now you know.

    The Official Wine Thread

    Soave tends to have slightly more body than acidity compared to things like a steely Sancerre, though I have had one or two that came off as flabby. Soave doesn't travel well. It needs to be cellared for a while before drinking. Its a little like the white wines from the Haute Savoie in this...

    iknow you guys catcha lot of crap. but i was talking to a friend the other day about online communities and how to develop them. I've been involved in them since the late 80s (actually edited for Prodigy back in dial-up), and I've got to say that this is probably the best-run forum i've seen...
