Hi Dave,

 RH> It's fun, tho I know not everybody aappreciates a pun.

 DD> Sometimes it's a stretch to see the humour in a pun. Or to find a good
 DD> recipe with which to d a "Burton". I try to make all my "conversational"
 DD> posts have a recipe that relates to something is the conversation -
 DD> and thereby honouring the memory of our late friend.

 RH> With the data base you appear to have, the hardest part of that is
 RH> probably the search for just the right one.

 DD> Many times that's true. But, sometimes, like in today's "Today in
 DD> History" post I have to rely on the Bing search engine to find just
 DD> the right one then poun d it in to my Meal Muncher.

Bing-o! (G)


 DD>       Title: Instant Pot Sesame Chicken
 DD>  Categories: Poultry, Sauces, Vegetables, Chilies, Herbs
 DD>       Yield: 4 servings

 RH> It actually looks quite easy, if you have an instant pot or equivalent.
 RH> We have the equivalent, one for in the house and one for the camper.

 DD> I gave my "Instant Pot" to my sister-in-law who has much more counter/
 DD> cabinet space than I weill ever have unless I move. But, I have an old
 DD> (from my mother) Mary Dunbar pressure cooker - so I can "fake it" with
 DD> what I have on hand.

I've also got my 8 qt pressure cooker (used to have a 22 qt one but sold
it when Steve went into the Army) that gets plenty of use. Will pull out
the water bath canner next week tho, to proccess fig preserves.

 DD> And truth ti ttell many/most "Instant Pot" recipes cross over to using
 DD> a crockpot/slow cooker quite handily. And I do have a selection of
 DD> those from the baby 1 quart to the big counter hog - the "casserole"
 DD> crocktpot.

I've got the baby, a 4qt and a 6 qt crock pot; they all have their uses
but probably use the first and 3rd more than the middle one.

 DD> The big boy is quite handy for one-pot meals. To wit:


 DD>       Title: Dirty Dave's Crockpot Chuck Roast Dinner
 DD>  Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Potatoes
 DD>       Yield: 6 servings

Lots of left overs, unless making it for a group. Do the left overs
freeze well?
