Looks like they made polenta based on the thumbnail.

Yeh, this episode is definitely one where they're free to have Their truth; but for me, mashed potatoes gotta be rustic: full complement of skin, certain amount of solid chunks. Save the babyfood consistency... for the babys.
Kind of funny they do all that work to take any sort of texture or other interesting bits OUT of the potatoes, only to try to add it back as a topping.

I think I'll try this over the weekend:
Using drop biscuits/dumplings and just cooking it all in one is certainly a cheat but damnit, weekend time is precious!

That seems bending definitions a bit too far. I'm sure it would still taste good, I like dumplings too. But will they have anything approaching a flaky biscuit texture in a pressure cooker?

I agree on potatoes, skins and chunks.

My dad used to make drop dumplings in the pot when he was cooking beef stew. They're different than biscuits, but still good.

I prefer regular biscuits for my SOS, but I would definitely give that a try.

That thing ruined an entire season of top chef. I still get mad every time I see her. Somehow she developed a successful food TV career after that. Single most unwatchable contestant on any cooking show, ever.

I agree. I don't know what comes out of that pot but it sure as hell isn't biscuits.

Pretty sure mosquitoes audibly pop when tapping into Molly from the salt induced high blood pressure


In case this wasn't entirely sarcastic:

There is no causative link between sodium and increased blood pressure. There isn't really even a correlative link. Eat all the sodium you want, it is good for you.

i would use less salt and more milk tbh, it was smore thick good than yummie gravy

I ended up doing exactly that. Omitting the salt from the gravy (my sausages were cheap enough I knew I'd have plenty. Also, kept it in the drop biscuit recipe) and, due to a Burn alarm, splashing milk also. All in all, came out alright. Fluffy drop dumping texture is what I prefer from a biscuit under gravy anyways, rather than a buttery, flaky, layer-y, jam vehicle.

i mean from this i learned that bisquick is the only pankcake +baking mix around, all the other aunt jamaia, hungry jack etc were pancake + WAFFLE mix. (i'm not really into this stuff)
