gosh, all these breads look soo good.. i've been so busy with my school work and work that i haven't been able to bake much :(

for kids- don't tell, but for teeners/adults i think it's just proper to tell them.

i love lichees. have you had the lichee jello things? they're excellent as well.

we made bread buns and tofu burgers plus spaghetti last night

Beautiful thread! :) thanks for those helpful links up there. I love Korean food and know how to cook just bibimbap chapchay(sp), kimchi, and some of the appetizers like the sweetened potatoes, spinach, etc.. and often like to cook this at home as well.. but of course, being vegetarian- I only know how to do the veggie dishes.

I was just given this beautiful pasta maker for my birthday a few months ago, and I've been making a lot of pastas - but don't really like the doughs I've been making except for the lasagne one.. Does anyone have any eggless recipes for pasta dough that they'd like to share? Thanks very much!

breads.. I love baking, but I love seeing people eat and enjoy the things I bake even more. It's very satisfying.

in the kitchen.. well, that's where our dining table (just for family and close friends) has always been anyway.. it's the safest, nicest place to be, really. And it's even better when there's someone I love around to eat with. :)

we had pancit and kare kare for lunch. :)

Congratulations and good luck on the baby! :)

i made some chinese fried rice with heaps of butter and cilantro plus macaroni (beets, minced and toasted seitan, olives, and cucumber) which had a yogurt-pickle, mustard, honey and pepper dressing

we use it for chinese spring rolls or the fillings of the bread

it's used - but as the others have said, not as much as in the Vietnamese and Indian cuisines. btw, did you know that Cilantro helps rid the body/blood of the toxic heavy metals that you may have ingested such as lead/mercury?

white rabbit candies and the red sweet/sour little crumply candies

thanks very much for your help. :) tis much appreciated, I'll start from here. thanks

A good friend of mine has been raving about some Indian sweet and sour dishes that she had while she was in India, but I can't find any recipes of the sort and her not being a 'food fanatic', didn't ask the names of the dishes either. Can anyone help me please? Thanks very much! :)

my favorite sweet crepe filling is mangoes, cream, a little honey, and corn flakes. Blueberries and yogurt is good as well- or apples cooked with caramel and walnuts.. as for the non-sweet fillings, I really like couscous or kimchi with peanut butter. :)

mangoes, fuji apples and yogurt. yummy, I LOVE summer because of these yellow mangoes. Delicious!

grilled cheese.. i have 2 favorite versions: just plain cheese, pizza seasoning, and tomatoes -drowed in butter or mozzerella plus a bit of parmesan, button mushrooms. .as for the bread- any soft bread'll do, but I prefer potato/plain white bread

Congratulations! :) haha.. I just read this whole thread. All the labor stories are interesting.. I'll get there too.. maybe, in a dozen years orso

today.. um.. lets see.. .. rice? :p

that was a fantastically interesting read! thanks for that.. btw did you get to taste the "stinky tofu"?

I'm such a butter freak that I even eat butter plain- but.. ice cream would be pretty gross with chunks of butter.. :/ that's all I can think of now.

when we camp we usually cook with and in the bamboo trunk/leaves (i live in the tropics)- yummy stuff, doesn't get too smoky, and there's less to carry during the treks that way. Otherwise- for our little picnics and stuff- we just cook at home and bring our paper plates/pots, spoons, forks and the works with us.

peanut butter with olives, or peanut butter and kimchi. Yummy stuff. :)
