    Salmon

    My hubby has named this the salmon candy equal parts Dijon mustard and good apricot jam heated together in pot or microwave season fish with salt and a touch of cayenne and smear with must/jam bake at 400 till a solid medium for us. It really doesnt seem to work too rare with the sweet tracey
  4. The fries went away with the LARD or was that TALLOW.....sigh a dive with week old (at least) oil helps too, have you ever noticed when even someplace with good fries sends out pale limp creatures? Its new oil day for sure. tracey

    Dinner! 2007

    You got Bubbles!! only 1 of my homemade pies had bubbles and it was my hubby's tracey
  6. When I first tried this I took a bunch of recipes and figured out what ingrediants I had and came up with my own list 1 carrot, celery stalk, onion ..sliced 1 cup vinegar ..cider and or red wine 1cup water 1/4 cup sugar 2 tbl salt peppercorns, juniper berries, and bay leaf marinate meat 3 to 7 days roast tightly covered or cook in crock pot W/ marinade defat the drippings and pour into sauce pan. whisk in enough crumbled gingersnaps to thicken to gravy serve or spaetzle or noodles tracey
  7. Not too late right.... this article in the NY Times claims they do still make the Banana Cake for the Green Bay and Peoria markets http://www.nytimes.com/2007/02/28/dining/2...html?ref=dining tracey
  8. I found "lean, flavorfull, and tough" you could whack them and chicken fry, or shallow braise with onions and mushrooms or turn them into Butter Beef from the Dutch cooking thread. mmmm all sound good tracey
  9. What alot of the sourdough recipes have been saying is to let the dough rest in the mixing bowl for 30 min ....then add the salt and mix ....proceed as usual this give time for full hydration and to get the yeasties going tracey this stuff looks yummy
  10. the best thing about it is that its easy to carry for the addresses going to NYC tomorrow...where is my copy?..... tracey
  11. One place I worked used the "kids puzzle piece shaped play mats" no, I dont know what they are called but apparantly they are alot cheaper than restaurant mats and they are cute too. tracey
  12. Krispy Kreme is in trouble??? I guess my Grandma was right; Yankees are crazy. I am joking, but serious, too, about the surprise. Our KK is always busy - especially when the sign is on & I have to argue with my own self about stopping every time I drive by. A whole wheat doughnut sounds so not KK! Actually more like DD - I never have gotten the appeal there - dry & only the toppings are sweet - it's like eating froting on toast - blah! Our DD (only a mile or so from KK) had to add an ice cream shop to stay open and they don't even bother to stay open late at night anymore. ← If they hadnt tried to sell 'em days old in boxes in the supermarkets in NJ....ugh is right tracey
  13. Isn't there some kind of issue of lung disorders among the people packing microwave popcorn.... I like the smell tracey
  14. While I am not saying these will become my favorite chip... I just finished a snack bag of Wavy Lays " same great taste now made with Sunflower Oil" It took me till the very end to realize it but these taste buttery...like I dunno, maybe just inside the skin of a good baked potato with butter. Well pretty good whatever they taste like and No TransFats tracey
  15. And dont forget lots of California fruit was picked early this year because of the weather. T
  16. Start with a nice crostini to shut up the guests, get a risotto going, pan sear a protien, roast a veggie and make a great salad with homemade dressing. pair it all with some wine and then maybe a nice boozy parfait with real whipped cream for the birthday girl. I have thought about making a career of this tracey
  17. Here is a new twist on this What do you buy when you realize that even your fat pants dont fit, and its time to go shopping. I just spent about 50 bucks on veggies - cabbage, celary, cauliflower(4.00 ea) broccoli, carrots, bag o salad, apples, and pineapple and to stay on topic I came home and made fat free onion dip to choke the veggies down with tracey
  18. A really nice low key place specializing in healthy food that tastes good is Gazelle in Ridgewood. Just reveiwed by the Times. they have a completely open kitchen and Ron and Jimmy Chef/owners are pretty nice guys http://forums.egullet.org/index.php?showto...3530&hl=gazelle tracey and....I used to work for one of the owners

  22. Gee All I did was curse the entire city of Paris after we got "zapped" in December. I must say that I was really pissed to miss 4 meals in Paris, and 2 in Munich. That will show me to eat my husbands bernaise sauce. tracey
  23. My beef stock looks funny...and not ha ha funny Its light brown like gravy and I am not amused. I roasted all my bones and veggies for 1.5 hours at 400 degrees and simmered it for 10 hours it looks yucky tracey

    Dinner! 2007

    Forest Potato cheddar bacon soup is one of my favorites but I am sure inquiring minds will want to know where did you find cheddar cheese? tracey
  25. Jen This dish was created by French peasants to use leftovers most likely. We are not French peasants, our leftovers include chicken legs, venison sausage and sliced rare leg of lamb. So that is what we put in cassoulet. Use a nice tart salad dressing and enjoy Tracey
