takadi- Is there any difference between the results for long, medium, or short grain rice?

Hello- You could make a blackberry-flavored vodka

Hello- I enjoy cooking in a variety of Asian styles. And, I also enjoy hot/spicy dishes. So it should not come as a surprise that chili oil is a staple in my pantry. My current bottle was purchased at an Oriental grocery store. The bottle is from Taiwan. The only English on the bottle is a nutritional label that lists the ingredients as soybean oil and chili powder. So, what chili oil do you use?

I agree that "best" is subjective . That is why I am interested in how people feel about the places listed for their areas.

Hello- Have you seen this article on the "best" pizza in each state?......Comments? https://www.yahoo.com/travel/best-pizzeria-in-every-state-101712153222.html

Hello- Does anyone else love chocolate and chili flavored bars? I cannot be the only one who loves that and real Mexican Hot Chocolate. BTW, I recently discovered Rolo

Hello- I also love Natto

Hello- I am a big fan of congee. I prepare a basic porridge and season it with garlic and ginger. Then I use this as a base for anything I have around the house.

Hello-As usual, I'm looking forward to this year's Beaujolais Nouveau for Thanksgiving.

Hello- I am currently using Shirakiku brand sesame oil. It is not toasted as far as I know. And, the company is Japanese, but the oil is made in Taiwan.

Hello- I cook with Peanut Oil

huiray- Thanks for the information. It is always interesting to find a poem in the 7 character/line format. I am so used to seeing them in the 5 character/line style. Also, the saucer was very interesting, I have never seen one of this design. Is the space in the middle typical of this period? We would love to see any other goi3 wun2 you may have

Hello- welcome! Your picture looks delicious. I enjoy cooking Asian styles, so I was curious...What characterizes Nyonya Malaysian cooking? Also, do they do anything special with tea?

So I guess we will know on Nov. 5

Hello- I recently was able to renew my supply of sencha. I'm drinking my favorite version: the one produced by Yamamotoyama.

huiray- This is so very amazing! This is a wonderful piece. How old is it? How did you get it? I am sure there is a fascinating story here!!!

DocDougherty - Can you tell me what 'gur' is? maarla- I am very excited about this topic. I love to eat samosas, but have no idea how they are made.

Hello- I always buy turkey legs that are already chopped like that!

Hello- Can you mix the red, blue, and yellow to get orange, purple and green?

Hello- Welcome. I too am a fan of the slow cooker! I do mackerel this way because it is has firmer flesh than most fish and the bones are soft enough to eat, like salmon and sardines.

Hello- This thread also has an interesting, and long, discussion on whether or not boiling causes water to lose oxygen (and thus making poorer tea).

Hello-I love single malts and I have a friend ,a doctor, who lives in California. Why am I telling you this? Because every time he visits me (about once a year) he brings me a bottle of the good stuff. So...... Today I received his annual gift: this year it was a bottle of Montgomerie's Rare Select Malt Scotch Whisky. More specifically, it is an 18 year old Islay. And, while I technically did not go to a liquor store, I figured that the arrival of this treasure on my doorstep was comparable.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Finally, a Spirits thread that I can relate to since my favorites are whiskey ( any single malt or Jack Danials) and dark rum. I am glad to see that dark rum can be used with chocolate. Can anyone give me more info on this?

Hello- Welcome! One of my nephews goes to the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He is working on his Doctorate in Philosophy.
