I'm shuked we can't even all agree on how to boil a freaking egg. Did Pepin not solve this for us decades ago?

Actually, I've found the best way to hard boil an egg... believe it or not... is in the air fryer.the moops said:Thoroughly researched piece on the best way to hardboil an egg.

Seems best way it to actually steam them.
But I go with the water boiling, drop eggs in for 11 minutes, toss into ice bath for at least 15 minutes, peel under running cold water.
I put 3 eggs in a rice cooker, and then put the rice cooker in the air fryer. Turns out perfect.Actually, I've found the best way to hard boil an egg... believe it or not... is in the air fryer.
And don't forget about rinsing off in the bidet.I put 3 eggs in a rice cooker, and then put the rice cooker in the air fryer. Turns out perfect.
Now I really want an air fryer. I'm running out of counter space though...
french fry cutter. a 5 minute job is now 2 seconds.
If anyone wants a very cheap solution to this, here's the bidet I got: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B099DZMD9L/Bidet is a good one. 100% agree.
Geedel $30What model did you get? There's a big price difference between different models.
Also, does cutting your own fresh potatoes produce a better result than throwing frozen packaged fries in the air fryer? I've done it both ways and I think the frozen ones generally come out better, but maybe it would help if the fries were cut more evenly...
Do you drink coffee everyday?We keep ours in a cabinet and bust it out when needed...we only use it a few times a month.
We don't keep any appliances on our counters tho, not even a toaster or coffee maker. All out-of sight.

It's not actually a bidet, but it's the same idea. Wiping with dry toilet paper is an inefficient way to clean anything. If you get dirt on your knee while gardening, you don't come in the house and rub it with a dry towel. You add some water to help get the dirt off. Same principle with wiping your bum. Those moist towelettes aren't a great option because they have all those weird chemicals. Dipping your toilet paper in water, though, works great.
So I got that little plate that I keep near the bathroom sink. On my way to the toilet, I add a little water to the plate from the faucet and then put the plate on the bathroom counter next to the toilet. Dip the toilet paper in the water before wiping. It's not as fancy as a bidet, but it's a big improvement over try toilet paper.
Decided to go to Costco with the wife yesterday. Saw this for $40 off. I am now the proud owner of one.It may be more than most people need, but as I am regularly feeding more than just my own 3 kids, we got this 10 Qt. 2-Zone one from Costco
This and second place isn't even close.Lasik. Best $5K I've ever spent.
I had one in my house 40+ years ago. It was great at getting fresh air in the house. Also great at getting pollen and dirt everywhere. Still, miss it on nice days.Whole house vents used to be really popular. I used to get a kick out of showing them off to prospective buyers when I was doing a home inspection on a house that had one.
They’re nice but loud and if you have bad allergies they might not be all that great for you.
My lady uses and swears by the Instapot.Also, can you share the hardboiled egg formula?
Yeah, not sure why the dual zone takes so much longer unless it takes longer for it to bring them up to temp vs cooking one side only. Smart finish is nice for sure.Caesar said:Decided to go to Costco with the wife yesterday. Saw this for $40 off. I am now the proud owner of one.
Haven't used it but read the manual... smart finish looks convenient. I'm not sure why the dual zone cooking takes so much longer, though, based on the manual times.
Interested here as my next set of pans will likely be SS.All Clad D5 stainless steel pans
Bluetooth shower speaker
These thing are fantastic especially the older you get. Between this and a foam roller is a must to help get loose before any strenous activity.this percussive massage gun
been dealing with hip soreness & tight calves after running the last couple months. this thing has alleviated the soreness in relatively short order.
ran 13.1 yesterday. in races past that has left my legs an unusable lump for at least 2-3 days. i mean, i can still function, but everything is very sore and i can't run for at least 3-4 days.These thing are fantastic especially the older you get.

I use mine before softball games as part of my stretching routine to get my 51 year old body as loose as it can be. Also works great, like you mentioned, as a recovery tool. Sleep wrong and get a kink in your neck it works great for that too. Love it.ran 13.1 yesterday. in races past that has left my legs an unusable lump for at least 2-3 days. i mean, i can still function, but everything is very sore and i can't run for at least 3-4 days.
got home yesterday, soaked my feet in a cold kiddie pool and used the massage gun on my thighs and calves. today my legs are basically feeling normal, very little residual pain or ache at all.
should have bought one of these things years ago.
We just bought a cheapo. I think jbl is the brand.We have an Echo in our master bath so I mostly use it but have considered putting on directly in the shower. What did you get? I'm not real savvy with these things - could I get a relatively cheap speaker that would pair with the Echo ?
It was your original post that put it on my radar, so to see it for that price made it a done deal.Yeah, not sure why the dual zone takes so much longer unless it takes longer for it to bring them up to temp vs cooking one side only. Smart finish is nice for sure.
Some calphalon or other nonstick. Can’t even describe how much better stainless cooksInterested here as my next set of pans will likely be SS.
What did you upgrade from?
Wait until you try carbon steel.Some calphalon or other nonstick. Can’t even describe how much better stainless cooks
I didn't know you were a weed smoker.I got a french-fry cutter as recommended earlier in the thread.
That's a major improvement in my fry-making process, as is excluding any soaking. I just cut the potatoes into fries, smear them with olive oil, and throw them in the air fryer at 380 degrees. After about 13 minutes, I check in on them and reshuffle them every so often until they look done. Add salt toward the end, and maybe some slices of cheese on top with about two minutes to go.
They come out better for me without soaking the cut potatoes in water -- probably because I don't dry them well enough after soaking.
Great for your comfort but absolutely brutal for the environment as the spray kills skeeters and every other bug and bee it contacts.This is more a service, but...
Mosquito spraying.
Being able to go outside and not worry about getting bit while at home is amazing. Will never go without this service again. Going on 4+years now.

On the mosquito topic we have been using thermocell products for years. Keeps our deck completely mosquito free on summer evenings in central Indiana. I also use a portable one while deer hunting southern Georgia in September and would be destroyed without one.
cannot recommend more highly

The original ones that run on butane and a small felt pad that’s comes presoaked on permethrin I believe.which one do you use?
there is a ton of them (styles) on amazon too
We live in a wooded area, I spray and use these if we will be out for longer periods of time. I second these.....On the mosquito topic we have been using thermocell products for years.

I think this might be somewhere else in this thread, but I'm too lazy to find it. What's your recommendation for a rice cooker? Don't know anything about brand, size, features.Put more simply.
Most people that try meth think it's great. But the rice cooker is Walter White.
Even if the thing sucks in every other way, I'm sold on an air fryer for this reason right here. I eat leftover pizza cold because there's no good way to reheat it without the crust turning to rubber or drying it out completely.
