Bascar, could you post that recipe? I have a hankering for some corn chowder. Or, if you have a salmon chowder recipe that you love, I'd like to hear it! I doubled this recipe for last night and everyone raved. It's a Rockabilly recipe Well Fed Corn Chowder 3 slices applewood smoked bacon, diced 1 ...

Last night a grilled cheese and steak sandwich, and I think we all know who's to blame for that.... Tonight I am making Rockabilly's Corn Chowder and a vegetarian chile. There will be soughdough bowls and cornbread (neither made by me) to accompany. Alongside will be a vat of mulled wine. We shall e...

You have to realize that I haven't eaten cheese in any form for 3 years due to a supposed dairy allergy.... a myth my new allergist exploded in a single pin prick. I'm making up for lost time here.

Aged cheeses have lots of flavor but don't melt well, young cheeses melt but have no taste - so you need a combination of the two in about a 1:3 ratio of aged to young. Good bread is essential, you need something robust, but absorbent, not too crusty and not too chewy - day old sourdough is my choic...

You think it's hard now? Just wait. It gets harder. So start that FU fund now.

no, you're not. Crockpots are up there with microwaves. They might be good for beet pulp in winter though.

Caraway seed is one of the few things that will make me projectile vomit but I have flour, salt, bicarb, milk and lemon juice, so will report back later.

Pork Green Chili 2 lbs pork, diced 3 medium onions, diced 6 cloves garlic, chopped 2 tbsp whole cumin seeds 1 large container of roasted chopped green Hatch chillies (I like Bueno - available in the frozen section of your supermarket) - 28oz 3 cups chicken stock (I use water and bullion) Working in ...

And points deducted if you use a microwave. That means you Scruffy.

I'm fed up with fighting altitude and yeast so figured soda bread might be the way to go. Anyone got a good soda bread recipe? Bonus points if you have cooked it at 6000'

For those cold nights when you need something warm in your stomach, but you don't quite feel like cooking a big dinner - how about crock pot cocktails ? :lol: Awesome link! Ready? Vegetarian chik'n nuggets and tater crowns. And a tootsie roll. All you foodies may scream bloody murder at will. :D I ...

I had 2 very senior geldings with me last year, both with no, or very few, teeth. So, alfalfa pellets, rice bran, equine senior and beet pulp all soaked with top dressings of cool,calories and fresh ground flax seed. I used heated 15 gallon water buckets to both soak the feed in and to keep it from ...

My boy competes at Galway Downs this weekend, I'm on my way to see him now, at Novice. He qualified for the YEH 4 yr old championship but the fences are Training height and we don't think he's ready for that. He thinks he's is of course, he just loves showing and running and jumping. :D I can't wait...

Very good looking for a 2 yr old! I hid Bianca in the back 40 for her first two years. She turned 3 just last month and I'm thinking about sending her back there again....

So, it was good, very moist, but all I can taste even now is the smoke. It was applewood chips. I need to investigate other woods, I think. I don't think the changing of the chips will help much. Smoked fish seems to work because fish has a distinctive taste to begin with, chicken can't compete wit...

OK, go look up BBC Radio 4 extra online. Listen to British radio--excellent plays, series, comedies, something for everyone, free. I love a good mystery, myself--classics like Lord Peter Whimsey, amongst may others. I hope the ex gets a bad case of hives. I was going to suggest exactly the same. Ra...

Desperately trying to clean out the fridge before I leave for CA. So - saute the last onion with some garlic and last of the bacon. Add diced pork and brown. Deglaze the pan with brandy (because brandy goes off if you leave it. Well known fact). Add the rest of the wild apple puree, some whole grain...

I've only met one true rogue, but I was young and immortal, so I was lucky.

All we can ask of ourselves is that we do the best we can. And you do.

Whoa.

Y'all take a bit more care missy. Those roasts won't cook themselves!

Congratulations!

Evening all!
