    ISO recipe/help with authentic hot and sour soup

    I made this soup last night and it was fabulous! When I make this again, I will wait to add the tomatoes with the pineapple. The tomatoes cooked away. I cooked the onions for a few minutes in the oil to get them going before adding the broth. I will be making this soup again in the very near...

    White Rice - How do the Chinese do it??

    Not a complete minority. I believe that jasmine rice (which I suggested) is a long grain rice. Charlie - have you been to United Noodle? That is my favorite asian market. I can spend a lot of time and money there

    White Rice - How do the Chinese do it??

    My rice comes out so much better now that I have a rice cooker even though I thought I made great rice on the stove top. Personally, I use jasmine rice that I buy at the oriental market.

    Need an easy menu suggestion.

    It seems as though I am busy running my daughter to activities every night. It is difficult when she has soccer from 5:45 - 7:15. She can't eat dinner before practice or she will get ill so she has fruit, bagel or yogurt before practice. After practice, she will have some cheese and crackers...

    Like to cook at home? Read This

    Mmmmm....I LOVE Penzey's! I have one just a few miles from my house. There are very few spices in my cupboard that aren't from Penzey's. It is amazing to go there and actually smell the spices. Let me tell you that cinammon from there smells 100 times more fragrant than cinammon from the...

    Advantium Owners

    I wish that I could have gotten the 220. I only have the 120. This was my solution to not having the proper electrical to get a dual fuel oven. I made the scalloped potatoes out of the book and they were pretty good.

    Advantium Owners

    I just got my new Advantium oven last week. I have used the microwave, speed cook and regular oven features already. I will have to definitely play around to get the settings just right. For those of you who have an Advantium, do you have any tips on converting existing recipes? Or do you...

    I Made Meatloaf???

    I posted a nice reply but now I can't find it? Anyhoo...I made this same recipe last week and my husband LOVED it and it turned out great. I probably had only a little over 2 lbs of ground meat (ground chuck and some ground steak - I don't remember what cut). I also only used 5 oz of...
