How do I avoid condensed water on my ceiling after having cooking brown beans for 2 hours?

Question by Bobby: How do I avoid condensed water on my ceiling after having cooking brown beans for 2 hours?
I cooked then in a normal pot and had to repaint my kitchen. How do I avoid this next time?


Best answer:

Answer by Smells like New Screen Names

b. Why would you repaint when you could have simply cleaned this? You have to clean it to paint, why no simply clean it?

What is the cooking difference between a stock pot, a slow cooker, and a dutch oven?

Question by Rob S.: What is the cooking difference between a stock pot, a slow cooker, and a dutch oven?
I'm sure this is a pretty uneducated question but I am new to cooking...at least good cooking...and I have been going over a lot of different recipes which will ask for a stock pot, a slow cooker, and sometimes a dutch oven.

To put it simply, they all seem like a different form of a pot to me. Slow cookers are electric while dutch ovens and stock pots are not. I don't see where the difference in results in food or why you would pick one over another in certain methods. I am not being critical, I really do want to know and become a better cook from learning. Any help or advice would be very welcome.
Why would you choose one over the other?


Best answer:

Answer by Let me steer you
A stock pot http://www.stainlessstockpots.com/stainless-steel-stock-pots/?gclid=CI7J1cDSsqUCFTRa7AodowK8Ww is really just a large pot that you use to cook with on top of the stove. The pot sits on one of the burners. They come in many sizes to accommodate the amount of product you're making.

A Dutch Oven is usually made of cast iron or of enamel over steel and has a lid. It is used to cook in the oven generally. You can also "hang" them on a hook over an open fire to cook. http://www.google.com/products/catalog?q=dutch+oven&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&hl=en&biw=1024&bih=564&ie=UTF-8&cid=14516212913698211564&ei=5XLpTK3rEMWclgep-4ziCw&sa=X&oi=product_catalog_result&ct=image&resnum=3&ved=0CFMQ8gIwAg#

A slow cooker is an electrical appliance. You put the product into the slow cooker, cover, turn it on and it cooks with very slow heat so it takes several hours to cook the food. A Crock Pot http://www.crock-pot.com/ is an example of a slow cooker.

If there was an imminent food shortage, what would you stock up on?

Question by Gilos: If there was an imminent food shortage, what would you stock up on?
Really want a list of suggestions as to what can keep well for 4-6 months frozen or in a cupboard.


Best answer:

Answer by Galah_1
Rice

And this won't help your quest - but I would get me a breeding pair of chickens!

ADD EDIT: If you are worried about a food shortage, you should probably stock up on salt. When processed foods run out - salt will be of a premium rather than a dangerous oversupply like it is now.

Beef Stew In Pressure Cooker






Beef Stew In Pressure Cooker
How to use pressure cooker to make a tender beef stew everytime.

Should I buy an electric food steamer?

Question by Hello: Should I buy an electric food steamer?
How often do you cook with an electric food steamer


Best answer:

Answer by JQuick
I have an electric steamer that I haven't used in about 10 years. That's because I learned that a pressure cooker with a steamer basket is better. A pressure cooker traps the steam to increase the temperature of cooking from 212deg.F. to above 250deg.F. A steamer justs wastes most of the steam that the pressure cooker uses. Plus a stovetop pressure cooker pot can be cleaned in the dishwasher, unlike an electric steamer. A pressure cooker pot can be used as a regular pot without the pressure, so it serves many purposes besides steaming. A steamer is a single function appliance.

Did I break the stove top?

Question by !: Did I break the stove top?
I was making a soup and used a pressure cooker (I didn't know what it was or how to use it) I took the top off while boiling and water splashed on the stove top which put out the fire. I wiped it up and tried using another circle and it wouldn't turn on. Should I give it more time or is it broken?
It ignites before the fire can be set by the way. I'm not sure if gas or electric


Best answer:

Answer by John W
If you can't tell whether it's gas or electric then you shouldn't be in the kitchen never mind use a pressure cooker. Take 3 steps away from the stove and leave the house in case you left the gas on if it was gas.

Guns/supplies/tips for surviving SHTF or WROL?

Question by ♘ Vader: Guns/supplies/tips for surviving SHTF or WROL?
Please give web links or book titles for SHTF or WROL preparation.

We live in an affluent neighborhood 20-30 miles N-NE of downtown Dallas. Our daughters are living in campus housing in Austin (200 miles away) and Stanford (1,700 miles away).

For a middle-age couple and 2 daughters in college, what would be the minimum amount of canned/dry food, clean water, gasoline, medical supplies? How long should we plan for before help arrives (from the government?? -- They didn't do much during Katrina)
====
We have NO hunting skills or "wilderness survival" skills. The closest we get to hunting for food is deciding whether it's Outback or Red Lobster for dinner :-(

If we were starting from scratch, with exactly a 12-month time-frame, what stockpile would we need? How many handguns or rifles and what calibers would we need (assuming SHTF or WROL happened during school breaks).

If SHTF happens while school is in session, how does the kid from California get to us? We assume it will be a game-time decision whether we drive to Austin (and back) or the kid goes to us.


Note: We already have a 9mm Beretta 92FS and Taurus 1911 45 ACP (and about 1k rounds for each). And I reload both calibers for practice.

Thanks!!


Best answer:

Answer by Boooorrrriiing!
Go and take some hunting classes while you can. There is plenty in Texas. Really it isn't that hard. Just take time out of your busy life style. Plenty of guides on how-to's.

Also if you don't have any .22 rifles. Get a few. Those would be handier than those pistols. The pistols are only ok for close encounters which you don't want to be having anyway. You can use the .22's for hunting small game.

Check it for any damages. Really check the rubber seal for cracks and replace if it has any. Hopefully, you can find one that has the instruction manual with it. Follow all the directions carefully.

Can you cook black beans or kidney beans in a rice cooker?

Question by : Can you cook black beans or kidney beans in a rice cooker?
I'm just looking for a more convenient way to cook dry beans.


Best answer:

Answer by The Unknown Chef
If you soak them and cook them in a rice cooker they will be fine, I have done mine in the one I have, in my crockpot and an electric pressure cooker too, a rice cooker works on the basis of the weight of the rice and water, as it evaporates the spring in the bottom is tripped when done the water has gone and the weight changes, cook them with no salt as this toughens the skins, add onions, bay leaves and other spices, just remember to give the bowl a good wash or you next rice is going to taste like beans, the aluminium does tend to absorb flavours.

what is best veg steamer to have ?

Question by Wolf: what is best veg steamer to have ?
what is best veg steamer ?

and can i add hot Dog steam with veg steam for dieting ?

or can i add also tunaa or chicken??


Best answer:

Answer by JQuick
There is no best steamer. Pick one with the features you like. It can be simple as the bamboo steamers, or an electric model with multiple layers.

Hot dogs aren't generally good for dieting regardless of how they're cooked. But the steam rising from hot dogs is fat and calorie free, and will only add some odor to other foods that may absorb it. You can steam most meats. You don't get the benefits of browning or the seasoning of cooking with liquids when steaming. If you put a container like a bowl of rice and water, you aren't really steaming. That's boiling with steam. People get confused about the kind of cooking method when they are mixed. Bowls of anything with liquid inside a steamer is boiling, not steaming.

A pressure cooker is better than a steamer in most cases. Putting a trivet into most any pot turns it into a steamer, but a pressure cooker traps the steam to increase the cooking temp inside to up to 250degF, while regular steamers are limited to 212deg.F at sea level or lower temps at higher altitudes. You can cook rice in 6 minutes in a pressure cooker, along with any vegetables or diced lean meats at the same time. You can't do that in a steamer. Plus you can first brown the meat, rice, and aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, and shallots in the base of the pressure cooker with a little oil, drain the oil, add water, and be done in less than 10 minutes with better flavor, color and texture of the result. You can think of a pressure cooker as a more advanced steamer, while regular steamers are for newbies who don't know how to pressure cook.

Best Pressure Cooker?

Question by Envy: Best Pressure Cooker?
I am looking to buy a Pressure Cooker....what are some of the best pressure cookers (not electric) out there that are highly recommended that are under $ 150. I want one with a good strong whistle and a sturdy ring inside...any insight would be appreciated!


Best answer:

Answer by sweetroll
Unless you are talking about a pressure fryer, they can be a bit pricey. I have never had a pressure cooker 'whistle' so I don't what your talking about there. And the sturdy ring? It's a replaceable rubber gasket.
A basic 6 quart Mirro or Presto can cost $ 40 - $ 60 dollars.
I have a vintage Mirro canning cooker from the 50's. It works great and the gaskets are still made. I have a Presto smaller version that I bought a few years ago for about $ 35.
