Dear Listers, I must have accidentally deleted the small pizzas recipe ... or maybe I dreamed it was on the list. Anyway, please send the recipe again. Please?

The simple ones with just one button only get hot and then shut off or go to warm when the rice is done. They know it is done when the temperature climbs -- water can't go over 212F or 100C so the cooker knows if all the water boils away and either shuts off or goes to warm when that occurs. You can still burn food if you aren't careful but you'd smell it long before you'd have an actual fire. The ones with more buttons are more fancy but I like the single button -- it's a mechanical lever, actually. When I plug it in it goes to warm, probably around 120DG F and then if I push down thereby setting it to cook, it raises its temperature so the water can boil. The one I have at work cost a whole $12. People saw me cooking at work all the time because I hated to waste my lunch eating. I work for a college so I swam, ran on the track or worked out in the gym at lunch. I was often sitting at my desk chopping vegies and reading email. I also loved those flexible cutting boards for that. And I worked with my door open so it was a regular sight. I think they never thought much about it except to ask for a recipe. -----Original Message----- From: Cookinginthedark <cookinginthedark-boun...@acbradio.org> On Behalf Of Linda S. via Cookinginthedark Sent: Monday, August 3, 2020 3:24 PM To: cookinginthedark@acbradio.org Cc: Linda S. <lindahoney...@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [CnD] Preferred cooking methods Oh wow! I wish I would have known this when I worked; not that long ago. I would have loved to let my co-workers smell all that good smell, and then tell them that they couldn't have any of my lunch. (smile) I am going to try this. Can you share more ideas? Thanks. Oh, my co-workers would have loved to see the blind lady cook.
