MacGyver Chef – Poached Chicken and Couscous in your Coffee Maker

Posted by Kamleshwar Bhatt On August - 27 - 2009

This is one of the coolest articles that I have written in a long time. I did a great job you know why? I took one of the kitchen gadgets “The coffee maker “ for the first recipe in MacGyver Chef Series. I tried to use of it for another purpose other than making coffee.

MacGyver Chef is doing something with as small gear as possible. So, I have a full kitchen at my disposal, I limited all prep to the coffee maker as well as its carafe. I wanted to make chicken of my own choice.

500x_McG_Chicken_0469

Equipment required:

• Boneless skinless chicken breasts as they cook faster
• 1/2 cup couscous
• 1-2 pats butter or margarine
• Water
• Seasonings: I used one of Trader Joe’s herb/spice blends

You just remember to salt, pepper and everything. This dish toes the line between horribly and edible bland. So, season the crap out of it. There are following steps:

Step 1: Dump about a centimeter of water in the coffee maker’s reservoir to heat up. After that stick your chicken with butter in the carafe, douse the mix with seasoning. On the coffeemaker and hot water will soon flow into the carafe. Get the water to cover less than half the chicken and boil it, dump the excess out in the sink. Cook for 15 minutes and stirring once.

Step 2: Now, flip your chicken. You will feel that that the chicken is cooking but there is no Maillard reaction. Coffee makers do not get hot enough to brown meat. Then I tried to pan-fry a cutlet on the burner and it refused to take on any color even then. Cook it for another 15 minutes on this side where it needs, then remove from the carafe. Now, it is time to prep your side dish.

Step 3: I chose couscous. The real recipe suggested instant mashed potatoes but it also used the word “flakes” to define these so-called potatoes an that is creepy enough to be discouraging. I tried an entirely different starch. Couscous cooks fast and all it takes is hot liquid that coincidentally we already have. Just taste your liquid and if it requires more seasoning then adjust it. I found mine needed extra everything: herbs, salt, pepper and even a little more butter.

Step 4: With the liquid, dump in couscous in a 1:1 ratio. Not to put in more couscous than liquid or it’ll end up crunchy. On the burner, put the couscous-filled carafe back. Then for about five minutes, let it sit until the liquid’s all absorbed.

Chicken_0481Step 5: Now, you can plate it up and can serve with wine. I cannot enjoy the chicken until I’d drunk some quarters of the bottle, at which point it becomes more delicious. So, serve with wine and enjoy!!

I hope you will like this article and dish as well.

AirTel after Reliance, have launched their Direct-To-Home (DTH) satellite TV service – Airtel Digital TV which is a DTH satellite television service in India that is using MPEG-4 digital standard with DVB-S2 technology and transmitting using INSAT 4CR 74°East. It is the 6th DTH service launched in India.

Sunil Mittal, the Indian telecom giant has owned Airtel digital TV which is a part of Bharti Telemedia Ltd a susidiary of Bharti Airtel Limited. Through the largest mobile service Provider Of India Airtel, he brought mobile Services to India. Airtel digital TV operation with a slogan “Come Home To The Magic” had started since 9 October, 2008. Currently it offers over 175 channels as well as many interactive ones along with WorldSpace Satellite Radio channels. They are also planning to bring internet on DTH by using Airtel Live, It is the second provider providing mpeg-4 technology in India.

Exciting features of Digital TV

•    MPEG-4 digital compression

•    Worldspace Radio content
•    New games every six weeks

With over 175 channels, the packages starts from Rs. 2499 for a six-month subscription in which the channel price band ranges from Rs. 99 to Rs. 424. Airtel Digital TV is available in 62 cities in the first phase through 21000 Airtel retail and relationship centers.

Important thing is that the dish antenna is 20% larger than the conventional antenna for better performance during adverse weather conditions.

I must say Airtel has to show difference in their product and services to stand strong amongst existing DTH segment players such as Tata Sky, Sun Direct DTH, Zee Dish TV, and Reliance Big TV.

When I was in school, I always wanted to play piano but because of my studies, I couldn’t able to give time to learn to play the piano from my school’s musicians. But I think now I can fulfill my dream without giving time to any teacher or musicians. Is this dream also yours? Do you want to play the Piano or to learn to play the piano or to play a song on the piano? If yes then you do not need to have boring instructors or any other help to play because with Concert Hands plugged in to the PC, you can easily become a pianist without going looking for piano classes.

The Concert Hands system teaches you piano/keyboard using a ten finger feedback system that gently pulses when you should play, coupled with an automated wrist pilot that guides you across octaves. It is a sophisticated combination of software as well as hardware that designed to make you look like a dork while you are learning to play the piano. It sounds quite cool.

How it works?

The very first step in using this system is to feed an audio file into the included software. The software breaks down the song file into notes and converts that file to a file system where a controller box distributes the signal to the finger sleeves and wrist pilots. The finger sleeves are placed on all fingers of both hands and your wrists on the wrist pilots lay gently. When the music starts the wrists pilots guide your hands to a specific location, across the piano and then the finger sleeves receive a pulse to indicate which key to press. After long waiting, the signals and repetitive motions will develop muscle memory and you will improve faster and enable you to play your favorite songs on your own.

Now, I am going to become a part-time pianist. Are you?

The Panama Hat tips off for $100,000

Posted by Isha Farhad On August - 13 - 2009

I always use different – different kinds of hats in different – different colors. Some people use hats to protect themselves from sunlight whereas some people use hats just to look dashing and smart.

But hats with their rich ancient style and glory have always been popular for the trendy. Now, Simón Espinal, the king of the master weavers, commissioned by Brent Black offering the world’s finest Montecristi Panama for $100,000. It is simply known as “The Hat”, the most finely woven Montecristi Panama that has ever known by the world. Simón Espinal, the best weaver in history lives in the village of Píle in Montecristi Canton and took five months to complete it.

The world’s greatest The Hat is made from extremely fine toquilla straw which is woven only in Ecuador. They are produced by a handful of master weavers and sell for tens of thousands of dollars apiece.

When Espinal had completed the weaving, then five other artisans took so many weeks for preparing and finishing The Hat. You can see some it in the gallery. Still it has not been blocked into a style or sized and is waiting for your final instructions. Black introduces many different styles as well as bespoke finishes from which some are based on vintage patterns like the dashing Optimo design. The Hat is very fine with its less weighs. Black told The Classicist that The Hat is as thin as his stationery and whenever he handle it he do not worry that it might fall to the floor but he worry when he drop it that it might float away. He has also been obsessed with the very finest hats for more than 20 years and has researched the finest hats woven during the 20th century.

So, I am sure that there is no hat that is comparable to this one in this world. So, are you ready to spend $100,000?
