Sweet Potato Fries With Chipotle Mayonnaise

I haven't posted about food in quite a while, but this particular recipe (that I found on PBS from food blogger Adrianna Adarme) seemed to good to pass up.

Ingredients: 3 to 4 sweet potatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 3 to 4 chipotle peppers in adobo.

Directions: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. On a baking sheet, spread out sweet potato spears. Drizzle them with olive oil and sprinkle with a few pinches of salt. Transfer to the oven to roast for 20 to 30 minutes, until tender when poked with a fork.

Meanwhile, add your chipotle peppers to a food processor and pulse until minced. Add the mayonnaise and pulse again until combined. Give it a taste and salt according to your liking. Remove the sweet potato spears from the oven and serve alongside the chipotle mayonnaise. Yield: 3-4 servings

Dremel's $999 3D Printer Idea Builder

It has a halfway decent build space (9" x 5.9" x 5.5"), but only uses PLA plastic.

Winfred M. Berg

Last week I received new copies of the Winfred M. Berg catalogs, both inch and metric. Filled with machine components: gears, polished rails, bearings, sprockets and pulleys. Everything you'd need to develop a high-tolerance, precision mechanical device.

I once had the catalog practically memorized, I used it so much. Little has changed since I first opened its pages some thirty years ago.

If you need to make a machine and you don't have your own machine shop, this is the catalog for you.
