slow cookers, the blue-ray technology of culinary arts
21 May, 2006 14:46
The slow cooker - the most usefull culinary invention that I have used.
Really, there isn't anything you can't make with it. I got one as a gift a couple years ago for christmas. I started out with pot roasts, and pork roasts, which always turned out amazing, but very simple to make and not very challenging.
So lately I have been experimenting a little bit. A few days ago I made a stew: potatoes, onions, garlic, rice, and a big fat stew bone. It was a killer meal and fun to prepare.
Then just a couple days ago I was contemplating lunch. Although I will cherish P&J sandwiches to the end, I was looking for something different. This was a hard project, since I didn't have a lot of food in my house. I did have potatoes, garlic cloves, corn, kindey beans, and rice, AND a small packet of beef mix from some sort of mystery boxed stroganoff kit. So I threw all that in, let it cook for a few hours, and wala! I was amazed, since I didn't think there would be a lot of flavor with such a small packet of seasoning. I was surely wrong.
Now here I am going at it again. Cuberts are pretty bare for nurishment except for clam chowder soup mix (which makes a half a gallon), and some encredibly unique rice that is organic and aged for 10 years. That is what is in the pot now. I just hope I used the right balance of water and rice. I think I did, but we will see.
Just to edit: The rice is aged for one year. I can't imagine what weird and creepy things may happen if I were to eat 10 year old rice.
