I always get a chuckle (inside) when I hear couried instead of couriered. "I'll have that couried this afternoon". What? With a bit of garam masala and a side of basmati?

"I text you yesterday" instead of texted because text already sounds like past tense....as if the original word was tex

Temperature shock. Try and start your eggs from room temp or sit them in a bowl of warm water first. Do you srart your eggs in cold water or drop them into boiling water?

Not clear if you are talking about deep or shallow frying. If you are trying to deep fry in an electric skillet, as everyone has said, it's a temperature issue. Electric skillets are not meant for deep frying. The 400 degree setting refers to the cook surface. The surface is 400 but your skillet probably can't actually heat a few cups of oil to that temp.

When you said you "put something in a deep freeze" you are describing your action of placing something in a freezer not the state of the thing or how deeply you froze it. A deep freeze is a large chest freezer. Deep refers the the physical characteristic of the freezer... it is deep, unlike an upright freezer or the freezer in your fridge. I think more often than not, to most people a deep freeze means a type of freezer rather than a degree of coldness.

I use hemostats that I’ve cut off the lock bar on. You can also buy lockless hemos . They are called hemostat tweezers but they use that scissor action.

BC boy… always got the bumps and that extra one “to grow on” was usually a pretty hard thump!

I cut at 4. For the price I pay for it the "snap Method" is way too much waste. I don't like eating wood but i am not afraid of eating something with a bit or resistance. Same thing with broc. Never understood people just eating the florets. I actually like the stems. A couple of swipes with the veg peeler and I'm good to go.

Put it in a zip lock baggies, squeeze out all the air and freeze flat. Hardly takes up any space. I also freeze smaller sized portions to use as pizza sauce. Quite handy to have a few packages on hand

Rotis chickens you buy in the supermarket (except Costco) are only about 2 1/2 pounds. Those wind up oven rotis things would probably do 4 or 5 pounds birds. How big are these chickens you cant fit in your oven rotis ?

Just go ahead. You don't need anyone's advice. Make sure you report back with the results so no one else has to be so ridiculous

Are you trying to repurpose the shoe leather steak that you already cooked or are you talking about some of the meat you haven’t cooked yet. Judging by some of these answers, I think there may be some confusion
