Emjo instead of adding the corn starch, if you squeeze the potato and onion mix after grating them both. Let the water stand for about 10 minutes and very carefully and slowly pour out the water. At the bottom you will find the starch from the potato (natures own binder). You'll find it better than the corn.
My favorite, and moms also is eggplant Parmesan. But not the typical restaurant style. They are stacked in slices and between each slice you put what you like, for example;
Slice of eggplant, slivers of garlic and sauce, then another slice of eggplant,pepperoni a d sauce, then spinach sauce another slice of eggplant then top off with sauce and parm.
Throw in the oven covered for 45 @ 350. Turn off oven uncover let it rest for another 10. Serve yum! Again awesome thread.
Oh this evening... Nothing. Just drinks and snacks. Have a good evening all :)
im still kickin around the stuffed bell peppers someone mentioned earlier. one of my favorite dishes right there.
The New French Bakery does my (pre) baking here. Put a crusty baguette in the oven to serve with the soup and some sweet cream butter. Comfort food for a cold, cold night.
last night roast pork tenderloin (marinated first), peas, noodles, cinnamon apple slices, and home made chutney.
windy - roasted cauliflower and garlic soup sounds great. I made a new one which ends up similar to split pea soup, but less carbs. Cauliflower and green beans, onion, garlic and celery seed, water or chicken stock, boiled then pureed, add some chunks of ham.
glad - we never had lefse - but I learned to make all kinds of cookies - brunesnipper, krumkake (the iron got passed around the neighbourhood), sandkake, kransekake, kokosmakroner, fattigmann, berlinerkranser, kringla, sprtiz and wonderful melt in your mouth short breads. We also always made 2 blotkakes on everyone's birthday - one to be served in the morning while the birthday child pretended to be asleep in bed till we woke them up with the cake, presents and singing Happy Birthday, and one for dessert at supper. I have a few old recipes of mother's - take a jug of good milk etc - not our measurements now. We also made our own marzipan. My job was skinning (you couldn't buy them skinned then) and grinding the almonds with one of those old hand grinders you fastened on the edge of the counter. Then I made marzipan candies, fruits etc. and decorated them. You roll them in coloured icing sugar to get the different colours. We did everything from scratch.
G is off again, so probably left over pork roast for me tonight, with spaghetti squash. I don't do well with grains, so stick with meat and veg mostly and a bit of fruit. Gotta keep in shape.
Maybe add some celery and carrots and raw onion to your rice, or sub potatoes. Carmelized onions and raw onions together build a flavor profile. Add a little chicken broth, 1/2 cup or so and a splash of cooking Sherry, then the herbs you prefer.
If you like pulled pork sandwiches, no need to brown (though it does add flavor). Put the loin, though pork shoulder is preferable with a higher fat ratio, into the crockpot with your favorite BBQ sauce. Cook low and slow for 7-8 hours. It will pull apart fork tender. Serve on buns with extra BBQ sauce. This meat can be stretched all weeks for tacos, quesadillas, etc. Good and economical.
Latkes ...... yummmmmmm
I'm getting kind of fluffy, not gaining weight, and that disturbs me.
This sub-zero for months on end is bad for even walking the dog. Gaah!
Ready to go low-carb again. Too bad I finally perfected pizza dough! :(
Anyone else have cabin fever?
windy I do love food and cooking relaxes me. Usually I cook several dishes at once I will do a ground beef mixture - onions garlic etc. and make stuffed peppers and also lazy cabbage rolls, and a soup - always have to have soup
around. I boil up bones for stock with a little vinegar in them to get the minerals out as I am allergic to dairy as well as gluten and watermelon. majes f
mbvargo - cookies??? Made me laugh - those days are long gone for me
wordy - the cookies sound great. Cabin fever???? You have no idea . Minus 11F - feels like minus 27. Just hooked up the (t)rusty old dog team (2002 Buick)and got me some groceries. Dang the wind was cold! Hibernating tomorrow
windy -you are getting fluffy??? have you had your thyroid checked? a splash of two of sherry improves many things. My father made what he called Zoop which was a soup made from whatever leftovers were in the frig and a hefty dose of sherry and it was always good
It really helps to loosen up a stuffed nose and chest congestion. Plus, it's something a person can actually taste as that sense usually suffers with a cold.
I DO tend to like spicy food so your mileage may vary. :)
