The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through ScienceEver wondered how to pan fry a steak with a charred crust and an interior that's perfectly medium rare from edge to edge when you cut into it? How to make homemade mac 'n' cheese that is as satisfyingly gooey and velvety smooth as the blue box stuff, but far tastier? How to roast a succulent, moist turkey (forget about brining ) and use a foolproof method that works every time? As Serious Eats's culinary nerd in residence, J. Kenji L pez Alt has

Ever wondered how to pan-fry a steak with a charred crust and an interior that's perfectly medium-rare from edge to edge when you cut into it? How to make homemade mac 'n' cheese that is as satisfyingly gooey and velvety-smooth as the blue box stuff, but far tastier? How to roast a succulent, moist turkey (forget about brining )--and use a foolproof method that works every time?

As Serious Eats's culinary nerd-in-residence, J. Kenji L pez-Alt has pondered all these questions and more. In The Food Lab, Kenji focuses on the science behind beloved American dishes, delving into the interactions between heat, energy, and molecules that create great food. Kenji shows that often, conventional methods don't work that well, and home cooks can achieve far better results using new--but simple--techniques. In hundreds of easy-to-make recipes with over 1,000 full-color images, you will find out how to make foolproof Hollandaise sauce in just two minutes, how to transform one simple tomato sauce into a half dozen dishes, how to make the crispiest, creamiest potato casserole ever conceived, and much more.

No more stubbed toes!
This is a very comfortable slip on shower sandal. The bowl design that makes it protect your toes and feet works like a champ! No more stubed toes !! They wore great to prevent that. And they have great traction in smooth wet surfaces. Even with soap on them. Comfortable fit.. I would buy this product again. Thanks

Size up
Size: 7.5-8.5 Women/6-7 Men, Color: Black
I had another pair of a different style from the same seller that shrunk when left in the sun. That one wasn't available anymore, so I bought this one in the same size, and they are too small. They are comfy shoes but not true to size

These have become MY FAVORITR SLIPPERS! They are so cute and comfortable! I do like that they have a rubber bottom they're a bit sturdier than other slippers. They last me quite a while to ive only had to replace them once cause I wore them out!
