I got mine about 8 years ago. I’m not up on what is available now. But I have several different Zojirushi appliances and they all work great and have stood the test of time.
That sounds like what my girl does. Mmmm. She needs to get up here and cook for me soon.

I have a Vita-Mix blender. Powerful and indispensable. Besides smoothies (helps in my wife’s diet), I’ve done gravies, sauces, soups, and desserts in it. So glad I got it!
I also highly recommend anything from Pampered Chef. I use their small stoneware baking pan to do my bacon in the microwave. I also use it for meatloaf in the regular oven.
Yes! I’ve got one, and have always used the Normandie Farm recipe:
Normandie Farm’s Popovers
Makes ~20 popovers
8 whole eggs
2 cups of milk
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of sugar
2 cups of all-purpose flour
Mix eggs, milk, salt and sugar. Add flour and mix for one minute. Do not over-mix!
Pre-heat popover pan with 1 teaspoon cooking oil in each cup for 10 minutes.
When hot, fill each cup 3/4 full. Bake for 15 minutes at 400oF. Reduce heat to 350{ for an additional 30 minutes. Be sure popovers are cooked inside to prevent collapsing.

That reminds me of something I left out: the Fat Daddio, for cake bakers (comes in two sizes and shapes):

I think that’s one of my husband’s favorite tools - he’s the meat cook :-)
And you remind me that he needs a new one. Anniversary coming up!

Um.....
:-)
In sauce pan melt half a stick of butter, stir in one cup brown sugar, a tablespoon of rum and an teaspoon of salt. Cook for about five minutes whisking often. Add a quarter cup of heavy cream and continue to whisk. When the sauce begins to bubble and climb the sides of the pan turn the heat down until it is just bubbling. Cook another five minutes whisking often.
Let cool a bit before spooning over popovers.
I just had TAH-BSO on the 8th and out of the hospital on the 12th. I also had my gall bladder and some lymph nodes removed. One gall stone was larger than a soft ball. Prelim result is endometrial cancer grade 1, but will be getting the pathology results in about 2 weeks to see if I need any more treatments.

I am looking for some quick, some what healthy recipes that won’t stress my digestive system any more than it already is. In addition to the staples and pain in my abdomen, my back has decided to start acting up again. My right thigh -nerve damage- started breaking through the pain meds this afternoon. And I have had edema in both legs for the past few months and having surgery hasn’t helped with that. Just taking a shower today wiped me out.
So recipes that don’t need a lot of prep or standing watch would be very helpful. Usually I can come up with my own ideas but my brain is occupied on other stuff and nothing really sounds good right now.
I have a Zojurushi but wish my Magic Chef was still in working order. I miss that appliance, it was a work horse.
Many of my cooking tools have found their way into my Gold Panning kit, lol.
I found some Italian Style bread crumbs (Clover Valley) in a round canister at the dollar store. I’ve been using this on fresh fish. It is a light breading and has a good taste. I catch White Bass at the lake in the late fall, yummy.
Cool; sort of an Eskimo ‘mezzaluna’.
(It’s cute that they call it the ‘woman’s knife’.)

I have that! I found it at the thrift store, and thought it would be great for little tea-things; but I’ve never used it yet :-(
Ditch the nasty fish, eat more chicken. ;) Never been a seafood fan, reminds me too much of bait.
Sausage makes a great jalapeno stuffing. Especially if you then wrap them with bacon :-)
Ummmmmm.. Bacon.
I’m not a big fish fan.. but my dad grills it with olive oil, salt and red wine vinegar. I am amazed at how good it is.
That is amazing! Here I am just using my plain wooden one when making pizza on a stone.
Read “Nourishing Traditions” by Sally Fallon. Everything we are told by “experts” is wrong. It changed my life and she isn’t selling a product or system. It’s a cookbook that is much more than a cookbook.
I'll need to remake the brownies. Not surprising, since I tried making both at once. That doesn't work.
But the test of ice-cream and test brownies was a success. ;)
Bad job, but someone has to do it.
Homemade ice-cream and brownies. mmmm.
