But their shipping charges!

I was going to buy an induction cooktop during the kitchen sale. Not sure if the Charlotte location is open for pickup but it appears out of stock now. $129 for shipping makes the savings questionable.

Website states certain locations. I didn't check if Charlotte is one since the website showed zero inventory on the cooktop.

I tried this morning and just checked again. I can order for standard shipping but receive an out of stock error for store pickup. Maybe they'll receive inventory before the sale ends in a week. No big deal if not. Good sale prices probably on the horizon for everything.

Not sure if this should go into this thread or the Social Media thread but, Cal, your baking products look fucking amazing on Instagram. Hmmm...maybe the photography thread? Regardless, great work.

I thought until recently that kerrygold and the like was better for baking until I saw Stella say that her recipes are all for standard AA butter and a European butter fundamentally alters them and I was mad at myself for wasting all that money on 'good' butter.

Note I'd still use kerrygold for croissants and use it for spreading.

we just use regular store brand unsalted butter.

the kerrygold, i believe, has a higher fat content. for flakier pastries that is the way to go, from my understanding, but everything else stick to regular things.

Yeah that's what I'm doing now. I find AA butter to actually brown easier too.

I like Kerrygold and use it all the time, but Bordier absolutely changed the butter game for me.

I was a European butter skeptic until they had it BOGO. I wouldn't use it for cooking or baking (because I'm cheap) but it's a game changer on toast, etc.

Roasted garlic is subpar for garlic bread.

Roasted garlic is amazing but shouldn't be used for garlic bread.
