    Coconut Milk And Cholesterol Content.

    Coconut oil and other coconut products are extremely healthy. It is not the people who are selling it who are saying this. It is the health food enthusiasts. There is a lot of information available on this.

    Braciole Recipes

    Thank you for this. I still remember my mother's and grandmother's braciole and I am dying to make some myself. I am going to try it soon. I may also look up the Soprano's recipe but I agree that I would not use veal cutlets. That would be a waste of an expensive cut of meat. I imagine you...

    "The Chew" new cooking show

    Very bad show with a few good recipes scattered around. I agree, we don't need another food show and certainly not this one.

    Grilled Whole Salmon

    I can't have soy sauce so I stay away from the Oriental flavorings. However, I would like to get a good recipe for a creamy type of dip to serve with fish. I heard about a yogurt/dill sauce that sounded good but I have no recipe for it.

    Grilled Whole Salmon

    I got a whole Salmon, 5 lbs, at Costco yesterday. So, I didn't know what I wanted to do with it. I looked up recipes and I finally decided to grill it. Has anyone ever grilled a whole fresh salmon and how did you prepare it. Also how did it turn out. Mine came out good on the charcoal grill. I...

    What is the point of a garlic press?

    I read this whole thread over again and I am still unclear on one thing: is it all right to chop garlic and leave it in the oil for a vinegarette as opposed to leaving the whole clove in? Or is it not good to put garlic in oil at all? Or, is it OK if there is vinegar in it too (in which case...

    KitchenAid Stand Mixer

    You got a good price on it. I am happy with my new one but if I saw a deal like that I might not be able to pass it up.

    What is the point of a garlic press?

    According to your site it said it could be in the fridge for one week so is that not true now? In any case, what is it about the oil that would promote the growth that would not happen in vinegar? I have pepperoncini in my fridge that comes with whole garlic cloves in a vinegary liquid. So is...

    What is the point of a garlic press?

    I keep it refrigerated and I use it up right away. According to that article it is OK then. If anybody leaves it out of the fridge or keeps it too long in the fridge, then definitely they should be careful of that.

    Favorite Item from Trader Joe's?

    I bought Trader Jose's Gorditas and had them last night. I liked them. They are a corn cake filled with cheese and bean but taste sort of like a corn cake quesadilla. I was out of salsa so I put some Bruschetta on top and it then tasted like a pizza. These may be good for kids lunches too.

    What is the point of a garlic press?

    For vinagrette I just take a couple of cloves of garlic and cut them in half, then put them in a small jar of olive oil. Then when I make my dressing the garlic flavor is infused into the oil already and I only have to add vinegar or lemon and some other herbs and seasonings as necessary.

    Favorite Item from Trader Joe's?

    Absolutely sinful! We bought the chocolate but they also have Strawberry. I didn't see any Vanilla though, maybe they were out of it.

    What is the point of a garlic press?

    My garlic press sits in the drawer. I use the flat of the Chef's Knife to crush the clove. Once you do that the skin peels right off and the clove is broken open. Then I just cut it in half or quarters and brown it or whatever. Garlic does not need to be grated into food.

    ISO Rachael Ray meatloaf recipe...

    Many years ago when I was pregnant I ate dinner at a friend's house and she served meatloaf and mashed potatoes. I could barely get it down, it just tasted horrible to me. To this day, I don't know if it was because I was pregnant or because my friend was a terrible cook! It turned me off of...

    Favorite Item from Trader Joe's?

    I don't agree on the Things Not to Buy list: for one thing their bananas are a good buy as long as you don't take small ones and some of the produce is cheaper and better than in the supermarket, and the Two Buck Chuck is very good wine, my BF buys it all the time and a lot of people swear by...

    Costco is running a discount coupon of $50 off on a KitchenAid Professional 5.5 Qt Stand Mixer. The coupon is valid from April 14 through May 8. I know there was someone who posted that they were planning to buy this one from Costco. I don't remember who it was. In case they haven't bought it...
