This is a link to my blog site. There is numerous recipes there that I have made. I figured it was easier to post the blog site instead of having to try and copy over individual posts.

My wife had a dozen or so extra eggs to use up so I pickled them.
First time try.
I got a recipe off Google (not positive the best one), found a half gallon glass jar, spent a half hour making up the simple mixture, let em set for a day-
OMG am I ready for pretsels, beer, eggs and football. Eggs are sour enough to pucker your pucker strings but delicious.

I got a million, well maybe a 1,000?

Potato Dauphinoise

Ingredients

500g Potatoes (King Edward or Desiree)
200ml Double Cream or Creme Fraiche
100ml Semi-Skimmed or Skimmed Milk
1 Crushed garlic Clove
50g Grated Gruyere Cheese

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 180C/gas mark 4
Place the thinly sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water, this will prevent them from browning, then rinse the slices and pat dry with kitchen paper
Add the cream or crème fraîche, milk (semi-skimmed or skimmed for a lower calorie meal) and the crushed garlic into a large saucepan. Bring to a gentle simmer and add the potato slices, cover the saucepan and then simmer for 10 minutes or until just tender. Season well.
Empty the contents of the saucepan to a greased ovenproof dish; sprinkle the cheese over the top. Pop in the oven for 25 minutes or until golden

This is by far my favorite potato recipe!

Power,
There is the "Sticky: The Recipe Thread" towards the top of the "Off Topic" forum dedicated specifically for recipes like yours.

Maybe Zap will move it in there for you so that it will not be missed.

BTW it sounds pretty good!

Now, this is making me hungry.

OK.
This is what we do here once a week as far as cooking goes.
This week (Today) was my turn to cook...

Going with the "Chopped" theme from Food Network we take some stuff and put it in a cooler (They use a basket) and "You must use all the items in front of you in some way and create a dish that will be judged by in this case Mrs zap".
"You are free to also use Fridge and Pantry"..
She sets up the cooler.

But just remember this folks..
She has to eat it also..

No cookbooks or cheating of any kind allowed and the judge has to stay out of the kitchen at all times during cooking..
After however the judge has to do ALL the dishes.

OK now lets see whats in the cooler..


Hmmmmm....


First line of business...Season with salt and pepper both sides and don't be shy...


Get the skillet out and pre heat..


Lets add some of these to the mix..


As we continue..

...zap!

[zapster]

Allright now on to the green onions..chop chop..
Note the bowl of nice cold homemade polenta..


Over to the herbs for some parsley and chives...


After mixing the yogurt sans fruit..the egg YOLK...1/4 cup heavy whipping cream..chives parsley and 1 tbl. spoon pimientos this is what you get..


So now we take the onions and saute with some veggie oil until "Done"..


Next up the cheese..


Continued..

...zap!

[zapster]

Now we add the mixture to the onions and add 1 handful of cheese..Heat nicely now...
(Remember to taste! taste! taste! while cooking and add salt and pepper as needed...on everything!!!!!)


Now the steak..
Clarified butter and have at it!


I actually managed to get a slice of polenta out of the bowl in one piece!


Steak done..
Move to cutting board..


Tent with tin foil..



No that's not a tin foil hat.

Continued..

...zap!

[zapster]

Now on to the polenta..
More butter and fry it..


Put a lid on it!


OOPS!!!! Dummy..Forgot the starch..in this case rice..
NO PROBLEM!!!!!
There is always Minute Rice and a microwave..


Back to the polenta..
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
We'll see..


Gotta have hot plates..

On with the plating!!!

One more..

...zap!

[zapster]

This is what I did....




End result..


Unreal.
This was way better than I thought it would come out..
Steak was PERFECT..
Polenta was to die for!!!!

I love minute rice Mrs zap not so much so she chopped me for the rice..
Other than that?

ENJOY!!!!!!

...zap!

Happy New Year Everybody,

It is a recipe thread! Isn't SPAM a type of food?

[tadawson]

Questionable at best . . .

More like 'edible waste' since it is made mostly of scraps . . .

Here's my variation on

Ghost Chili hot sauce


Ingredients

2 fresh ghost pepper, seeded and chopped
3 hobenaro peppers, seeded and chopped
3 jalapeño peppers, seeded and chopped
2 fresh garlic cloves, chopped
3 cups of white vinegar
3 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Black pepper to taste
Cooking Directions

Add all ingredients to a food processor and process until smooth.
Strain into a large bowl to remove any unprocessed skins or other material. You may need to strain several times, or use a food mill.
Cover and refrigerate overnight to allow flavors to mingle.
Serve!

Now I gotta wait for my ghost chili to finish growing XD

[Bruce]

Sounds great!

[mfldmike]

I've made the following before MULTIPLE TIMES and it completely melt-in-your-mouth amazing.

1) 4lb Beef Roast (cut doesn't matter)
1) Can Cream of Mushroom Soup
1) Packet DRY Italian Seasoning
1) Packet of DRY Ranch Seasoning
1) Packet of Brown Gravy
1/2) Cup-o-water

Put all ingredients into a crockpot and cook on "High" for 6 hours and switch to "Low" for 2 hours. Make mashed potatoes and use the gravy that's created in the crockpot.

I never had one person bat an eye at helping themselves to a good sized 2nd portion.
