Strange, MsM. Maybe on a related note: When I go to enlarge your meal pics on iPad, I get an error message, but when I go to the regular site, there your pics are in all their glory.

Hmm I have the same problem with MsM's pics on my IPhone (this didn't used to happen). But I can enlarge them if someone else quotes them first. Weird........ I always enjoy MsM's pics

We had leftover spaghetti tonight, I worked late

you know, msm, your special emphasis on various asian dishes in recent weeks, has swept me right along with it. i love watching the parade of delicious looking
chinese meals you are turning out. the reddened bbq'd meats, like tonight's ribs, big YUM! one success after another-the delicate beauty of your wonton soup, the golden egg rolls and fried wontons, stir fries with rice and lo mein--all bright and lovely, msm.

Pan fried burgers for National burger day with fried onions and dill pickles. Toased homemade whole wheat buns ( leftover and sent home from the super-bowl yesterday), garlic mayo on the buns. Doctored up can o' baked beans along side. I had way too much caffeine yesterday, didn't sleep well. A nice cuppa chamomile tea after dinner to make sure I sleep all night. Don't know if it works or if I just think it relaxes. Whichever.

Yum! That sounds tasty

Thank you so much Vit.
I have been so disappointed by Chinese take-out since my favorite place closed. Had gone there since I was 11 years old no matter where or how far away I lived I always went there for take-out. Even when I moved out of state. So I decided to give Asian cooking a try. Mine isn't as good but it is close. I wish I could make a good lobster sauce. And I still need to give egg fu young a try.

where was the now defunct chinese take out, mofet?

btw, i checked to see if the attachment was still there, and i could see it from a couple of different handheld devices and internet domains at work. not sure why you can't see it, but here's the link: Pipette - Barilla

Joy Hing on Main St in Hackensack. It was a couple stores down from B&W Bakery and Dweet's Bar. Packard Bamberger's Superarket was behind them (now it is Target).

i think i remember joy hing. never ate there though.

like we need another target.

i don't know what to say about the attachment, but that was the name as i copied the picture from the website to my desktop, then attached it. maybe it was a copyright thing, but i did give barilla credit and supplied the link. oh well.

Maybe it's a browser thing? I use FF and see it fine.

I agree, Steve. Was going to say the same thing myself. I saw it fine but my browser accepts most formats.

I picked up a package of cut up Spare Ribs at the Asian market and this is what I did:

2 TBSP Hoisin sauce
1 tsp Ah-So sauce

Combine sauces in bowl and mix well

Pre-heat oven: convection roast 350°F
Coat ribs with sauce
Place on foil lined tray
Roast uncovered 30 minutes
Turn ribs and cover tray with foil
Roast covered 20 minutes (Check internal temperature - should be 145°F)
