I think some cracked pepper would be great on these. But then again, I love pepper.
How much vinegar??
OMG! That ham is everyone's dream ❤
loved the crispy tune.
I’d like to try those potatoes, so unique. Do you think they’ll ever invent an oven that automatically slides out the rack when we open the door and slides back when we close the door? Of course, with an option to turn in and off. That would be so convenient!
What was the ingredient poured over the potatoes at the end?
Happy New Year! Love you all so much. So many talented and knowledgeable people.
This is the fifth video on mandolins by America’s Test Kitchen. The second within a month. Is “big mandolin” paying you all off?
I always love when Lan is on. She has such a wonderful presence and a legitimate love for food and cooking.
What type of thermometer was used on the ham??
In the patatas panaderas can I use a non wine substitute??
this would have awesome to know before xmas
Elle looks great. Wonder if she went on some type of program to lose the weight.
I just love elle' – she's terrific . 🍖 ham extraordinaire
There's too much plastic already. Use a dutch oven for the ham in the oven. Also, use the rest of the ham juice to make a sauce with cloves and raisins.
Can this be made with a sugar alternative? I'm sure that people who need to beware of their blood sugar levels would appreciate it. Alternative sweeteners would be s great taste test!
That white V-slicer near the end … looks like mine … why did I buy it? Didn’t you (ATK) recommend that the most previously? If you did at least mention it was (or is similar to) a previous favorite so I don’t feel gas lit. The OXO does look capable but I’ll get every penny out of my current unit (I’d make a joke about it getting every bit of my knuckles but the guard is rather good I find).
Also, what of placing the mandolin over a bowl to catch your slices? Do some models make this easier? Didn’t one or two previously have a matching bowl as an optional purchase? A decent yellow squash never fits under my mandolin unless I stop and clear away the slices. I don’t wanna stop when I’m in my groove.
What? It was the Oxo mandolin for $85.00. I believe Bridget misspoke stating it was the $59 mandolin.
Happy New Year from California 😋
Use 1 1/4 Cup cider vinegar. Not mentioned in video (did I miss it?) so I looked it up.
Wait – for the ham – what if you laid the ham on it's side so the cuts were facing up then painted with glaze? You had a lot of run-off that might go down the slices if you had the ham on it's side. More glaze, less waste.
Seventh in New Year’s Day 👊🏻💪🏻
This was aired 12 days ago……too much partying last night?????
I hope you all have a Happy and safe New Year.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's always a great episode when Elle is in it. Happy New Everyone !!!
I really like watching ATK but this ham episode was on 12 days ago.
Yummy 😋
If I cook sugar 360F it'll burn
