I revolutionised my wife's NCT group with this info.

Do them on the highest setting - you might have to put them through more than once if your toaster is a bit crap - they don't drip any fat.

Rump steak with parsnip mash, cabbage and mushroom sauce.



I didn't mean for the sauce to get that thick but I took my eye of it while plating.

I have not had waffles for years, but may go and buy some to check this out and see if it works in our super high powered toaster, then I don't need to buy oven chips again.

How long for the toasting?

I've already said 2 goes.

2 goes at 2 minutes or 2 goes at 6 minutes?

Of course we could just try it ourselves and test when its cooked!

God damnit man, it's a toaster. They either undercook stuff or burn it to within an inch of it's life.

Just do it 2 goes!

(then an other if it's not done enough...)

Surely any self respecting PHer would sous vide said waffles for 4 hours before finishing off the outsides with a blow torch?

I used to cook bread using a blow torch after I refused to use the skanky old toaster and grilling took too long.

Need a new blow torch, anyone know a good mechanics/plumbers blow torch and what safe gas to use?

I find 4 hours too little to really achieve that perfect moist, creamy interior.

I tend to go with an entire weekend (but only the 3rd weekend of the month due to atmospheric pressures) then freezing using liquid nitrogen in a pale blue 1993 le creuset vintage stock pot for exactly 26.3 seconds before finishing 16.8 cm's from an open flame using a 47%/6%/43% blend of wood from Balsa/Pennantia/Redwood.

Its a really easy way to cook them I find and perfect for the home cook to replicate in their own kitchen.

Argon gas is not flammable, so is safe unless you inhale it, might want to get that toaster out though. HTH

What core temperature do you aim for

That looks really nice, can't beat a good casserole on a winter evening. Just chuck everything in a pot and chuck it in the oven and forget about it. To be extra lazy with a deep dish adding potato on top using a mandolin (pic is half way, completely cover in a layer or two). Few knobs of butter and a healthy grind of black pepper. Then you just have your veg to sort.

Seems to come out ok
