    Help Needed for Baked Cauliflower

    It was firm but not hard, but not soft to the point of mushy. The breading on the pan I baked for 30 minutes was too crispy for my liking. Other than needing seasoning, the second pan had better texture. As someone mentioned, you could par boil the cauliflower to softened it a bit.

    Help Needed for Baked Cauliflower

    I used the egg and breadcrumbs combined with parmesan cheese. Turned out good but I think I could have added more seasoning to the crumb mixture. It was just lightly breaded. In the past I have used frozen in the microwave but hubby had it baked somewhere and wanted me to try it. The recipe...

    Hi! I've been missing for a while but i know this is where to come for cooking advice. I want to make baked breaded cauliflower florets. Some recipes say to coat with oil then into the bread crumbs and some say to coat in beaten egg then into the crumbs. Which will work the best, the oil...

    Returning

    I've been MIA and started reading the forum today. It's good to see so many of the same members are still here posting. I've been well, just getting older and I don't cook much anymore. But I intend to stick around!

    2 very close versions of Carpathian Cabbage

    That's what's nice about this recipe, you can make a smaller amount and it's a lot less work than rolling the cabbage rolls. When I do that, I end up with a lot to share.

    Metal Pie Plates

    One more, Andy. I use aluminum because my mother always did. I have glass that DH brought from marriage #1. I use the glass for cream refrigerated pies. I bake my pies on the bottom rack to avoid undercooked crusts..

    Newly Developed Aversion to Meat

    I had a ground beef dish for dinner tonight, similar to Hamburger Helper but homemade. It was delicious! So maybe I just had to be really hungry. Actually, we did have an earthquake here a few years ago, but no, that was not when it started. Eggs are my favorite food. If I develop an...

    Sea Breeze Salad

    Can I serve this from the mold, or do I have to dump it out on a plate. That never worked for me. Always fell apart and half of it stayed in the mold.

    Newly Developed Aversion to Meat
