    TGI Friday (Dinner plans 22nd of July)

    It did me as well! Just oiled the muffin tins with olive oil so the wrappers wouldn't stick, then layered it all! Also made gluten-free Lasagna Cupcakes (my best friend and my Dad have Celiac), so I actually cooked corn macaroni, cooled, and used the noodles instead of wrappers. They both...

    Hi there! Quick question....my Mom made a big bean salad (ingredients included vinegar), and now needs to know how long this salad will keep in the fridge...? I had no idea what to tell her! Thoughts??

    Hot and sour paste?

    It tastes different than teriyaki somehow....and it's super thick, close to the consistency of molasses. I imagine you could use it as a dipping sauce, even...it would likely thin out a bit if you added heat. Either way, it has a distinctive taste!

    Happy Thanksgiving my neighbours to the south!! Hope you have an AMAZING holiday.:smile: For those of you that aren't busy right at the moment, I have a question. Yesterday I bought some "Hot and Sour Paste" (I'm cooking mainly Asian cuisine as of late), thinking I could surely use it in my...

    Wow, that's a crazy video!! That fire was amazing!! I'd love to have flame to work with! Thanks SOOO much, everyone...your input is very valuable. No luck today buying a wok, but I'm going to check out things online. I see the proper utensils really do seem to make a difference, too...

    To wok or not to wok?

    Wow! Thanks everyone for the input! :) I think I'll toss the electric wok idea! Sure wishing I had a gas stove, but will work with what I have. High heat...smoking oil...proper prep...no wok ring...and....SIZE MATTERS! =) GOT IT! Watch out world! HA!

    To wok or not to wok?

    I'm intending on cooking a great deal of Asian food in the next while (healthy healthy!), and I have a large, teflon wok-like skillet that I use on the stove. I am considering buying an electric wok, but I'm not sure if it is worth the money? Also, learning how to stir-fry PROPERLY. Ugggh. I...

    Dinner Thursday Nov 18?

    Supper tonight is... Cabbage Roll Soup! Created this a few years ago at my Sub Shop, and basically just threw everything in the pot that my Mom used to make cabbage rolls. Made it already today, and SERIOUSLY need to stay out of the kitchen...each time I walk by the stove I stop for a little...

    Morning, everyone!

    Thanks, everyone! I've been looking around the site...my goodness...where to start?! I think I need a "quick and dirty" instruction manual on where to post if I have a question...if I want to talk about what I'm making today...meeting new friends! I can see myself spending waaaaay too much...
