    ISO Sub for Capers

    Guy's thanks for all the replies! The reason I didn't use capers and was looking for a sub. is I did not have any. It sounds like I would like them from all of the comments on here. I love green olives. I fixed the pork chops without the capers, with just the dijon, lemon juice, and bread...

    ISO Sub for Capers

    What would be a good sub for capers? The recipe calls for 1 Tablespoon of crushed capers. I've never cooked with them before. The recipe is a dijon mustard recipe for pork chops. Can I use some other spice? Something that would go with the mustard, lemon juice, and bread crumbs? Thanks...

    How would you fix them, CHOPS, Help?

    Kadesma, your recipe is good. I had a good reply typed and lost it. My wife and 17 year old daughter act like they don't like onions. My daughter didn't want her chop cooked in the onions, so I just pan fried it for her. She made white rice to go with the chops. She cubed up her chop, rough...

    How would you fix them, CHOPS, Help?

    Kadesma, I'm trying your recipe. I think I might have used to big of onions? I had about 1" of onion in the pan yet when I put the chops in. More onions than cream, and I tripled the cream because of this. I guess I'll see it's still simmering.

    Juicy succulent chicken

    Might be dumb question, but is a jelly-roll sheet the same thing as a cookie sheet or baking sheet? Basicly a big flat sheet with about 1" sides? Are is it something different, with holes in it maybe? Just asking. Dave

    Should I sharpen this knife?

    Gadzooks, good advice, I have several consignment shops near me. I think I might look there for a wetstone. I remember my buddy sharpening his filet knive on a wetstone. If I remember right he would squirt some 3n1 oil on it first, and then sharpen each side. It sounds like the CC knive is...
