I just wanted to thank everyone for the suggestions thus far. I have a few questions which I'll hopefully post later tonight. -BWS :)

firstly, hello to everyone again. I've been really experimenting with different types of cooking styles and such, and I'm really making progress. so, thanks to everyone here who has helped to that end. ok, so today I did something courageous: I tried to make onion soup. I really like onion...

hello everyone. I've been working with the gari (sushi ginger) and just thought I'd provide an update: 1) I still haven't gotten that pink color. 2) Must use rice vinegar and not white vinegar (as I originally used). 3) adding some honey helps alot. 4) someone also told me to add some mint...

Thanks for the help everyone! Hopefully one day I'll graduate and become BoyWithFork. Till then... -BoyWithSpoon

hello everyone, its been awhile since my last post, but I'm happy to say that I've been experimenting and trying new techniques and such. anyways, I've been trying to make the ginger slices served with sushi. the recipe I got was to salt peices of ginger, and then lit it sit in a solution of...

hello everyone, some of you may recognize me. I'm new to the cooking scene and am trying to improve my skills (which, btw, I believe are improving :chef: ). anyways, I've noticed that my foods never quite hit that lip-smacking quality that one hopes for. :tongue: so, I've been using somes...

hello everyone, I've been looking for nutritional information regarding beef products (e.g. hotdog, hamburger, steak, etc.) but I haven't found anything (or anything understandable). I want to eat meat once in awhile, but since I'm trying to lose weight and such, I'm looking to eat at least...

Firstly, I want to thank everyone again for all their help. I tried making it again tonight and it went much better. I decided that since I'm trying to cut out as much fat and calories as I can, that I'd try BreezyCooking's suggestion to just skip out the egg part. very helpful. worked great. I...

lol, thanks again everyone!

THANKS! :biggrin: The warm reception and help is greatly appreciated. I'm looking forward to trying some new recipes and getting advise from the wonderful people here. Thanks again, BoyWithSpoon

thank you! so, I pat it dry on paper towels (don't rub), then stick it in some flour (which will stick, even though its dry~?), then the eggs, and then the crumbs. right? and I can fry it or also bake it (how would I bake it? temp and time?). oh, and is there a healthy alternative to frying...

thank you again! and does anybody have any recommended seasoning ideas (I like the lemon one), or any other ideas to make this dish nicer? thank you all again! BoyWithSpoon (aka, the newbie)

Thank you both so much! At the risk of revealing how much of a newbie I am, I'll hazard the inquiry: "what precisely do you mean by 'pat dry'?" thanks again, BoyWithSpoon
