Gingerbread sauce
My uncle used to make the best sauce to go over the gingerbread. It may have been a butter sauce. It was warm, so he may have melted the butter. Has anyone heard of something similar? I love gingerbread and will try this recipe. Thank you for posting it.
You can use canned beets. Use equal parts, water(or juice from can), sugar and vinegar.
I boil this then put in the beets and let cool and refrigerate. Can also add any spices you want.
I like the nuts, jams, fresh produce, 2buckChuck, the little biscotti, spices, wild rice, panettone, really just all kinds of stuff... They are 2 1/2 hours away so I don't get any frozen goods. Wish they would get one closer.
It also depends on who your feeding. At senior meals here, we use 4 oz., for hungrier people, you might want to up it to 5 or 6 oz. Are you also using beans in the salad? You could get by with 4 oz meat if you are also having beans.
I agree with Andy M., simple is good. I am going to try some
different cheeses tho, always use deli sliced American, but I
love most cheeses. Anyone tried a bit of blue thrown in?
My favorite is the steamed pork buns, shrimp stuffed dumplings, sticky rice and the custard tarts. I don't get Dim Sum around here and I really miss it.
Sakai was my favorite also, Chen Kenichi was fun to watch, a good sense of humor. On ICA, I liked Mario, but he is gone. I enjoy watching Michael Symon (there is that humor). I like Bobby Flay but he is on too much, like seeing different people.
When I go to Eugene, OR, my favorite grocery store is Market of Choice. I also
have to go to Trader Joe's, while not a full service grocery store, it still is a "must" to visit.
