    I may have worded it funny. It was croutons made from store bought rustic french loaf that was tossed with pecan smoked maple syrup.

    From Delish, I could not find it just doing a regular search right now but I took screenshots in the grocery store parking lot. I found it while sitting in the pouring rain in a list of 75 best winter soups they had.

    I took liberties with the order & time of cook on vegetables. I also added about 1TBSP ground ginger and one of the largest Mediterranean sweet peppers I have ever seen.

    It is really easy. Hardest part is making sure you have a blender up to the task.

    I pretty much do the same thing except use a leek instead of onion and roast the squash until carmelized on the edges. Then add a splash of maple syrup and some heat. Red pepper flakes or chili oil. Whatever I have around. The rest is basically the same.

    I do not know, I have only ever used immersion on garlic, peppers, & onions. I am sure if the potatoes & carrots are softened it should be okay. A really powerful blender will froth it up though and give it that fluffiness.

    Unless you're tied to the idea of an entire set I would recommend a few essential pieces and splurging a little more on individual blades that can do just about everything you need. Rather than paying for blades you won't use often. Lot of options and opinions but it mainly comes down to how much maintenance you can put up with in compromise for a sharper edge. Or minimal maintenance and a solid edge. Then personal preference on blade shape based on chopping style/technique.

    Lot more work than sweet potato but I've done celery root puree as a substitute for potatoes mashed on their own and on a shepherds pie and they are delightful.

    Ming does a lamb pot pie (really a casserole as it just uses stuffing mix as its crust) that is pretty decent.
    Cooks the ground lamb and aromatics (including ginger) predictably, diced potatoes, peas... and uses a basic roux with soy added to chicken stock when it's time to thicken things up before the stuffing topping is applied and the thing gets finished in the oven (browning the "crust")

    I did not use any butter at all, just olive oil and only enough to thinly coat the pan. I try to keep my meal somewhat healthy during the week so I can be a fat slob on the weekend.

    get the joule app and search rib roast, it's the recipe i use

    I do 136 and cook until done, varies by how big your roast is but can just use a thermometer to check too. usually 4-5 hours.

    cooking a rib roast to 129 with sous vide ends up with a texture I don't prefer

    So I got wild tonight. Wanted French Onion soup but also wanted to go crazy. Enter the French Onion Egg Noodle Soup. I honestly do not know if I will ever make it with French loaf again. The 3 minute chewy noodles just sop up and ooze beef & onion when eating but nowhere near the soggy French Loaf way. Wife still opted for the loaf because she thinks I am insane.
