Original question by Autumn: https://www.facebook.com/groups/StellaCulinary/permalink/1433111250205392/ "Planning to do a 14 lb spatchcocked turkey sous vide. I have it dry brining for the next 36 hours, then will cook 150F/6. I then plan to ice bath it and refrigerate until two days later when we serve it-doing it this way due to lack of fridge space. Trying to come up with the best way to retherm and obtain a crispy skin. Baking at 375 F till internal temp reaches 140 was suggested in one of the sous vide groups, but I'm trying to determine how long it will take for it to reach that temperature (so I can plan the rest of the meal accordingly). Thoughts? Also, is 375 F too low a temp? When I completely oven bake a spatchcocked turkey I usually go 425 F. Thanks!"

I answer the following questions: Mark C. via E-mail "Hey chef! Glad to see you're back doing the podcast again. Hope this e-mail finds you well. I had a quick question about pizza yeast. My wife picked some up from the store the other day because they didn't have anything else. We made some white sandwich bread, and the loaf came out pretty dense. We've made this particular recipe quite a few times in the past without any issues. On further examination of the packet, it says specifically not to use for bread baking.  What's going on? I thought yeast was yeast. Why would you need a different yeast for pizza than bread dough. Thanks! Mark C."

Could it replace fat in recipe? Where the fat isn't used for flavor or maybe a way to reduce the fat content in recipes? Seems like tangzhong provides similar affect to the final loaf as the fat. Anyone attempted this? Google wasn't any help." David | Plum Blossom Water | https://www.facebook.com/groups/StellaCulinary/permalink/1435144506668733/ "I was in my garden today, quite despondent over the looming threat of two nights of temperature going below 30F. I'm not worried about the veggies, as they can be covered. I'm worried about my fruit trees. This is the first year I've had blossoms on my pear trees, and one of my plum trees decided to blossom this year as well. These trees are simply too big to cover, and probably too expensive as well. So I was wondering. The plum blossoms have an intoxicating aroma. Intoxicating is good. I've heard of making rose water, and orange blossom water. Does anyone have experience in making orange blossom water? I don't think I have enough blossoms on the tree ghis year, but maybe next?"
