It is rare that I have a cocktail but Wolfy got me thinking
about a Coquito.

Gee thanks Wolf.

No Coconut, No Rum.

I can quit there.

I experiment with my grandmothers recipes all the time. She is the one who taught me to measure in the palm of my hand, smell the spice bottle to decide if it would blend well in my pan, and always do take a risk in the kitchen. I think she would be pleased to see her recipes live on and change to bring joy to anyone who uses them.

In principle I would imagine a solar oven would proof bread just fine but I dunno if it would start it baking at 250 F, and I also don't think one can adjust the temp--you get what you get, depending on the sun and the outdoor temps that day. They say you can bake cookies, but it takes a long time.

200 degree Celsius = 392 degree Fahrenheit...

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Night Delicious people
wherever in the world you are!

I have to say that it is so cool to have a thread where we are talking about food with friends from all over the world.

Also, this thread is only 25 days old and it has really taken off. We are getting a lot of readers as well as posters. I want to invite those of you who are reading and not posting to drop in and say hello. It would be great to hear from you.

Someone asked me what whole grain pasta I liked and I never replied. This conversation came from another thread.

Do any of you use whole grain pasta? Whole wheat or other grain?

This is the best way to learn to cook.

You were blessed to have that experience.

Happy Friday Folks !

That is the only pasta I buy now and brown rice that I eat, unless at a restaurant.

ahhh Grandmother's recipes. The best! I'll be searching for some good tamales this holiday season that compare. I found some last year and probably go with the same place for this year. . pork and red chile and some green chile and cheese ones. I should ONE OF THESE DAYS break down and try to make my own.

ruffryder · 11-30-2012, 10:47 AM

damnnn speaking of pots and pans. mine traveled with me from CO to FL. We broke the handle off a pan the other day. It's time for some new ones!

Zimmeh just ordered some cast iron ones I believe. We should be getting them real soon and I'll have to come back to report on them after we have had the pleasure of using them. Our Christmas present I guess. . or her way of telling me to cook more. hehe.

We have been eating this on Christmas morning for as long as I can remember. Some people like it on toast, we prefer good ole southern biscuits. You can add cooked sausage if you like.

Ingredients
•2 hard-cooked eggs
•2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons butter, softened and divided
•2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
•1/2 teaspoon salt
•1/8 teaspoon white pepper
•1 cup milk
•2 buttermilk biscuits

Directions
•Cut eggs in half; remove yolks and set aside. Chop egg whites; set aside. In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
• Stir in egg whites; heat through. Spread each slice of toast with 1 teaspoon remaining butter. Pour sauce over biscuit. Force egg yolks through a sieve to break into small pieces; sprinkle over sauce. Yield: 2 servings.

Hey ruff,

I am hoping that someone will post some Tamale recipes and tips. This may require recruiting someone.

So shout out to all of you Tamale makers out there! Help us out!

Definitely let us know how the pans work out for you.

What do you plan on using the pans for?

Hi Okie Welcome to the thread!

Thank you for sharing that recipe. We are going to have a nice collection of recipes in here soon.

This is one that I never seen before. Very cool! I love seeing what you all are preparing for the holidays.

So does anyone have any cooking plans for the weekend?

JustLovelyJenn · 11-30-2012, 07:49 PM

A friend just asked for my Thai Peanut sauce recipe... so I guess I am cooking that so I can actually measure what goes in it...

I sure will... just as soon as I make it... *laughs* I really don't know the amounts for it... I just get out a bowl and start pouring stuff in... so I am going to have to make it to get the measurements.

Great thread, Sun. I have been reading all of the posts. I also confess that I have learned a lot from the Food channels. There was talk about acorn and I believe butternut squash. One thing that I add to mine besides butter and brown sugar is a small amount of maple syrup. Very good that way.
Over the holiday, I attempted once again to make an omelette. On Ina Garten, (The Barefoot Contessa's) show, she had a guest who was famous for his omelettes demonstrate how he does his. He actually flipped the egg mixture once it was cooked on one side, up in the air, and CAUGHT it!. Out of my league, so, I do not own an omelette skillet, I gave this a try. I got another same size skillet, and turned it upside down and landed in the other skillet!. Success! It was fantastic! I added bacon, green onions, and grated cheddar cheese. Folded it in half. Put slices of avocado and salsa on top. Does anyone have any omelette suggestions or success stories?
Is it just me, or does sometimes the background music they play while one of these chefs is cooking or stirring, sound like the music they play on "porno" films. Not that I watch a lot of those.
