I like silicone oven mitts a lot better than cloth because you won't get scalded if you somehow manage to get them wet while you're holding a hot pan

Mine became useless faster then inherited 50 year old cloth. The silicone seems to gently caress up anything that isn't silicone

Speaking of towels and pads and such, I just got my Vitamix (thanks for the exhortation, Dino) and it's badass. That said, it's loud as gently caress. I personally don't mind so much cause it needs to do its thing, but I'd rather not have my apartment building neighbors take up arms against me for using it everyday. Is there a good pad thing to set it on that will dampen the sound it makes? This isn't really "equipment" per se, but since I'm on the subject, does anyone have a good cookbook or resource/compendium for babby's first smoothie making ideas, aside from the Vitamix one? Maybe something like Ratio or the Flavor Bible but for smoothies and juices?

Don't forget hummus. I made that for the first time this weekend. Cooked the chickpeas in beef stock and then boiled it down. It was transcendent.

I've used a silicone oven mitt from Ikea for years now and it's still as good as new.mobby_6kl posted:What's up with vacuum blenders, which are apparena thing now? Ended up getting a very basic blender for less than a tenth of a fancy one. Vacuum does seem to help to make smoother results but it's just not worth for me considering I'd use it like once per week at most.

Hmm it seems Oxo now has redesigned oven mitts with black silicone. The ones I had had gray silicone and I had no problems with it. Who got residue with Oxo mitts? Was it the black one? Was it oil residue?

I've had a Cuisinart blender for 5 years that sees quite a bit of use, but the motor is starting to go. Looking at possibly getting a Vitamix. Costco has the E320 for $280 - is that a good model/price? E: mostly make smoothies with frozen fruit, but I'd like to try making almond milk The Slack Lagoon fucked around with this message at 12:51 on Aug 14, 2019 |

I've been growing many peppers and now I am starting to have far too many peppers to use fresh immediately. I'm thinking about buying a dessicant bell jar and some silica or whatever, but my only dessication experience is using them to store sensitive chemicals, so my only experience with bell jars is the kind lab supply companies make. This is a problem, because, for instance, Fischer scientific wants hundreds of dollars for a glass jar. Are there more reasonable options that are still a decent quality?

Are there more reasonable options that are still a decent quality? i think uh... do you just want to dehydrate them? because you could just buy a dehydrator. as a bonus, you'll probably end up on fewer government lists than if you attempt to buy expensive lab equipment for this simple household task

A dehydrator would do the thing I want, I think? I'm under the impression that heated drying of peppers can ruin the viability of the seeds

fabergay egg posted:A dehydrator would do the thing I want, I think? I'm under the impression that heated drying of peppers can ruin the viability of the seeds I assume if you want to save seeds, you'd separate them out and handle them on their own. Given how chile seeds tend to be small, hard, and dry to begin with, I can't imagine drying them without equipment will be terribly hard a dehydrator will do the job of drying the flesh of the fruit out better than most alternatives, but it depends on how you tend to use it. as mentioned above, i think most people would pickle/ferment/freeze them to have easily usable product year round, while dehydrating them is better for making spice blends or chile powders or things along those lines

And you can dry a lot of peppers in the fridge, if you don't mind waiting a little longer and have the space. This works well for peppers like Thai birds and arboles that have thinner skins, but not as well for habs so on.

The fresh peppers you pick at the end will have the germs you need. You can also ferment dried peppers if add moisture.

You can pick up a hygrometer for a couple of bucks if you want to check, and that's something you'd want if were using a dedicated dessicator anyway.
