I am obviously thinking too hard here, but I am curious: there are a dozen different ways to cook beets - some say cut the tops off, some say leave them on; some say peel, some say don't; some say bake for 2 hours at 375, or 45 minutes at 425; some say leave an inch of water in the pan and...

:question:Here she is again, with ANOTHER question! My brain these days... the sad thing is I can't even blame it on old age or controlled substances - sheesh! Must be Spring Fever! I need help (that's why I'm here!)... I know one of you out there will have a great recipe or great...

... uh.... what the title asked! I have been searching for a guideline on the storage time-line for refrigerated sesame oil - mine doesn't smell bad, but I don't think I've used it in over a year, maybe more... I should mention (not sure if there is a difference) that it is not the toasted...

Hi All - been a while - I thought I'd ask around here if anyone has a recipe for black eyed peas they could share? It's been a long time since I had b.e.p. for New Years, and Lord knows I need some good luck this coming year! Thanks in advance, and blessings to you in the new year...:smile:

I feel sheepish posting, as I haven't been around much, and then I show up, asking favors... I chose You All, because there is always such love here, such amazing support, and I know some of you will understand what it is to love an animal My dog is undergoing some surgery today - she's been...

Fascinating article in the LA Times about salicornia and the scientist (Carl Hodges) who has dedicated the last forty years to cultivating this crop in briney water via aquaducts that would bring in rising ocean waters to nourish the salicornia - for fuel and food - here's the link...

....looked so good! at Farmer's Market this morning.... I also picked up cherry tomatoes (don't need any help figuring out what to do with those!) I have a recipe in my head for a salad with arugula, chicken, tomatoes, balsamic & shaved parmesan, but am hoping for a different suggestion...

I was introduced to a photo sharing site called flickr.com - it is a sister company to yahoo.com and consequently you must have an account with yahoo to use flickr.... that no big deal to me. I found flickr to be easier to manipulate/post, and less cluttered by "options" other sites had (like...

Tried following a few threads, but can't find what I'm looking for... I would love a jambalaya recipe.... but now I'm wondering about gumbo.... would appreciate any suggestions and commentary on your experiences with both! TANX! ***clang-clang-clang***:chef:

I have one from Zyliss that has a plastic "cleaner" (that pokey thing-a-ma-jig) and the prongs haven't kept their shape and consequently the pokey dosen't pokey very well anymore! I moseyed over to Williams Sonoma, and they had (what appeared to be) a very nice crusher with a FORTY-EIGHT dollar...

Ok... any suggestions on what to serve (hopefully uncomplicated) with the wonderful batch of gazpacho that's been happily brewing in my fridge for the last eight hours? Thanks!

I know it's a bit early for gazpacho, but I made it - it's been chillin' in the fridge for most of the day.... I've been in the garden working under a hot sun, knuckles bruised, body slightly wilted, brain definitely fried, and I'm trying to figure out what to make with the gazpacho... grilled...
