    Pork neck bones

    I bought some pork neck bones hoping to use it similar to a ham hock in adding flavor to my Fabada dish. I can't find any ham hocks around here that aren't some ghastly smoked ones with preservatives. Will the neck bones add much flavor to my dish? It's a stew of basically great northern beans...

    I need Thanksgiving help.

    I am being forced to cook this year. There will only be 4 of us so I'm thinking I'll just go for an organic whole turkey breast instead of a full turkey. I've never cooked anything like this, I'm worried about it drying out so I'm considering brining it, I've only ever done this with pork...

    Why did I pick stainless steel....

    I'v been looking into getting a new set of pots and pans and after a few months of looking around I settled on a really nice Calphalon "Simply Calphalon" set. Everything sticks to this stuff. I cooked a grilled cheese sandwich and had to use stainless scrub to get the burn out of it after...

    How does the Chinese restaurant do it?

    They have this dish, sizzling steak in a black pepper sauce, it comes on one of those sizzle plates. It's completely pointless to ask them how they get the steak the way they do, the most helpful response I ever got there was when I asked what was in the brown sauce, she said "brown sauce"...

    Bangers and mash, what sausage should I use?

    I can't get Cumberland sausage in Ohio, at least where I live. I've never had it before so I don't know what its closest analogue would be from among the products I can get here. The sausage they make at my grocer is sweet or hot "Italian", bratwurst, chorizo and sometimes kielbasa. I won't use...

    I need help with a pork stew.

    A long time ago I stumbled across a description of fabada, which is a spanish stew of various sausages, bacon, great northern beans and such. I kinda customized it for my American palate (no blood sausage etc). It's a thing we eat often now. My problem is they were out of chorizo sausage, but I...

    Bean skins always come off from soaking or cooking

    We like beans, but always have to end up buying canned because every time I try cooking dry beans the skins come off either during soaking or during cooking. I've scoured the internet and cookbooks and always follow the procedure exactly to no avail. It doesn't matter if they are bulk pinto...
