    REC: Italian Dressing

    I agree with Uncle Bob. I think this dressing would be great served as a sauce over grilled chicken, but I would not recommend using it as a marinade. Hope you enjoy it!

    REC: Italian Dressing

    Glad you agree Uncle Bob. I have made it 2 more times since then and just love it. I think I'll try 3 anchovy fillets next time. I have only been using one. Great with homemade croutons also-- they soak up the dressing and the flavor is wonderful.

    Pancreatitis diet/recipes?

    From my experience working in a hospital with pancreatitis patients, the diet usually goes from clear liquids to full liquids to not only low fat, but also bland and soft foods. It really does depend on the severity though. I would personally recommend things like oatmeal, mashed potatoes...

    Aebleskiver (Æbleskiver) pan?

    I received an Ebleskivers pan for Christmas this year. I love it! I'm not certain an egg poacher would be a good substitution. Mine is nordic ware and I think was purchased at Williams & Sonoma (not certain as it was a gift). We love to fill them with Peanut Butter, Raspberry Jam, or Nutella.

    Farro Flour Ideas Please

    I thought I was purchasing Farro (in a white vaccum packed package; the only English word being Farro). To my surpise I actually purchased Farro Flour. I did a search and found that I can use it in place of semolina flour, but the farro flour has a very different consistency from the semolina...
