Just throwing this out here, , , , , what's "new" in your kitchen in regard to foods, ingredients, methods, equipment, etc.? That new Christmas gifted gadget?

On my end, , , , last year my old Breville toaster/convection oven went belly up so, I did some casual investigating on a replacement. Settled on the Bella Pro Toaster/Air Fryer; has everything you need from "dehydrator" all the way to "air fry". Very nice and, one of the actual best things is its footprint on the counter. The Breville had its controls on the side of the oven. The Bella's controls are across the top of the front; saved about 4 inches of left-to-right counter space. Got rid of my 8 quart air fryer.

I've gotten into using Ghee for some things instead of fresh butter. The most interesting thing so far is doing fully thawed skinless chicken thighs, w/bone, or boneless brest portions submerged in ghee at a temp of 170 for 2 1/2 hours. Thaw the chicken, dry it pretty good, roll it around in whatever herbs/seasonings you want, put it in a small casserole with the tops of of the pieces being as level as possible, cover with ghee by about 1/8 - 1/4 inch of ghee. So tender and tasty. Fish has been working well too.
