    Coming up with a dish..

    So, I didn't get to try anything the other day. But I did come up with an idea once I rummaged through the kitchen some more. I was thinking of making a cream sauce with the wasabi; I'd be "making" the cream with milk + half and half + butter. So the whole thing would be the "cream" with...

    Quite true. I guess I'm gonna go get started on it. Thanks for the base list. :D

    Coming up with a dish..

    No need to apologize! I don't ever really follow recipes when I'm trying to create. I just eyeball everything and hope it works. :p You mentioning sweetness has given me an idea to try tomorrow.. >:D Hmm. Do you think just some regular ol' mustard and orange zest would work in that as well?

    Coming up with a dish..

    Hello all! I have a somewhat simple question.. I've had a tube of Wasabi paste for a little while now. I love using it just as it is, but being the creative person I am, I want to incorporate it into something else. I've been thinking of making a wasabi sauce, but I'm not sure how to go about...

    Question about making roux

    I don't want to hijack this thread, but I have a question that I think may be useful to Patra as well as myself. What do you all mean by "parts"? Is it a general term for the same exact amount, or is it a term for a conversion or something? I tried to make a roux once before and it didn't...

    Meat Discoloration

    Haha:lol: No, not at all. I was just very awake yesterday, which is odd because I'm usually dragging until later in the evening. lol

    Oh yeah, definitely. If anything, this is the most energized I've been in a few months. lol :tongue:

    Meat Discoloration

    It was pretty small. A bunch of pan steaks. Thanks. :] I thought of Googling it, but decided I'd get better, real-world answers here rather than a bunch of scientific stuff. :smile: Thanks for all the replies... I was sort of worried as I started reading because me (and my family) quickly...

    Meat Discoloration

    I'm not exactly sure where to put this, so if this in the wrong spot.. Sorry. :ermm: I'm not sure how to describe it.. But, on the steaks I cooked tonight there was a lot of discoloration. The first word that comes to mind is a "chemical" type of coloring.. Shiny, rainbow-ish... And it stayed...

    Game birds

    Thanks for the fast replies. :mrgreen: Cornish game hen was our first thought, actually, but we're not really accustomed to any birds other than chicken (or to a lesser extent turkey). I figured I'd ask here (this website is wonderful, and the people are more than helpful :smile:) just to make...

    Deciding what to grow

    lol If I even joked about growing pot my parents would flip (I'm 18 :tongue:). On top of that, my neighbors would steal it. lol How different does cooked and uncooked eggplant taste? I may be tempted to grow some eggplant if it's different raw. I can't stand the stuff when it's cooked. lol...

    Game birds

    Quick little back story... I'm in a Culinary class, and I'm in charge of making the menu for my groups luncheon, which happens to fall on Earth Day. In leu of it being Earth Day, and my teacher's requirement of a theme, my group decided to go with earthy flavors. So far our main course looks...

    Deciding what to grow

    The weather is [finally] warming up, and it's time to get on it, but I'm having trouble deciding what to plant this year... So I pose this question: If you could only grow five things, what would they be?

    Soda sauce?

    Well, for tonight I put it on some vegetables (Carrots, okra, potato, peppers, onion, etc) that I boiled. I got tired of the vegetables (they had some weird taste, and I could hardly taste the sauce) though, so I put the rest of it that I didn't use in the refrigerator. It could be used for a...

    Smoothies...

    Yeah, I figured that's what you meant. I was in a hurry, frustrated, and getting pretty mad at some people when I typed that, so I didn't catch that it would thicken it better until I came back and reread. Sorry. lol What type of berries do you usually use? A lot of berries here are too...

    Soda sauce?

    Okay, so, I tested this out. I assume reducing means to just boil it? Well, that's what I did... I put some cream soda and Pepsi together in a sauce pan, and boiled it while I fixed the food. It didn't really thicken up, so I added some flower and whisked until it was as smooth as I could get...

    Smoothies...

    Lol, well, the apple isn't the only fruit. =P The yogurt was black cherry, and the honey is lime flavored, and I had some pineapple juice in it too. It's pretty fruit strong. lol And that's actually what I thought about the ice.. I was putting it in and I was thinking to myself "This is going...

    Soda sauce?

    I wasn't sure of where to put this.. In the sauces area, or in the beverage area, so I went with general cooking.. I hope this is the right place. Sorry if it isn't. =( lol I saw something on Food Network a while ago (I don't remember how long, but it's been a while) where some guy used root...
