At any moment in time I may wear one of these hats: interaction designer, coder, gamer, educator, hacker, athlete, musician, chef, woodworker. I like to dabble in lots of things...from the virtual to the physical.

Hi @SAJ14SAJ. I tried that as well and for some reason this doesn't work for this pasta shape. This works for the other pasta shapes that I like...penne, farfalle, spaghetti, etc.

Their shape I think makes them pile together easily...

comment How can I make Chinese Fried Rice like they do on the East Coast?
Does molasses give it the slight smoky flavor? That is one thing that I've noticed about restaurant fried rice. I could never get that nuance at home. Or perhaps my burners are not hot enough.

Does the 5 spice powder give it a smoky kind of flavor? Or perhaps that's from the heat?

Ouch...I can't believe I got down voted. :) I've actually seen cheesecake made in a pie tin.

comment Apple pie making…how to add the crumble crust on top of the mound of raw apples?
@BaffledCook ... +1 for suggesting not to melt the butter for the second crumble. Perhaps I can melt, mix and let it solidify again?

comment Apple pie making…how to add the crumble crust on top of the mound of raw apples?
I accepted the answer because I think the technique of packing the topping around the apples is the key. I think I needed to pack it with my hands. I was spooning and pouring the loose mixture on top of the mound. :)
