    Emergency egg substitute.

    I haven't visited the site in ages, but thank you for this GREAT tip! So if I'm already sneaking ground flax into baked goods, I can actually reduce the egg I'm adding as long as I replace the liquid portion? Love it!!

    Sounds elaborate (and very good). What's Bragg's?

    Anyone have the "itch" yet? (merged)

    Oh man ... we are a good couple months away from planting where I'm at. I am GREEN with envy!

    Peeling Hard Boiled Eggs

    ROFL! I have tried it and it works ... if you use enough baking soda. But if you use enough baking soda, they sorta slip off without blowing ... :)

    Ramen Noodles - More than just Sodium in a Bowl

    Thanks Breezy and Callisto ... that's what I was wondering, whether it was like egg drop soup. I was looking for the baked ramen last night but didn't find them, so my experiments will have to wait until I can hit another market. I wish I could find baked ramen AND reduced sodium in the same...

    Ramen Noodles - More than just Sodium in a Bowl

    crazy question maybe, but do you cook the egg before adding, or let the hot liquid cook it as added?

    Goodbye to Flash

    I am so sorry for your loss ... the hardest decision we have had to make was to let our Heidi (aka Yellow Monster, or by today's standards "Marley") go to doggie heaven. Any pet lover can relate to what you're feeling today.

    This is why you're fat!

    I think Mars bars are extinct, darnit. And one of my FAVES. Snickers almond is close, but not the same. It would never make it to the deep fryer in this house, lol! Yep, no wonder I'm fat!

    Kitchen Nightmares

    My sister had a friend who was invited and tried out for Hell's Kitchen. If I recall, they are weeding and downright profiling for the effect they want on that show. They're looking for things to set him off. Regardless of who actually has the chops, they still need that entertainment factor...

    ISO: Cornish Pasties

    *gasp* pork and apple ... brilliant! Can I ask ... what kind of pork (shredded, ground, fine dice, etc.)? What else was in the filling, onion?

    Kitchen Nightmares

    Oh I lreally ike him, the chef ... just not him, the personality. I find it disengaging to constantly hear bleeps in any show. I also find it unnecessary. I am a hothead, and completely understand losing it in the heat of the moment. But I can't help but wonder if he doesn't embellish it to...

    Ramen Noodles - More than just Sodium in a Bowl

    Hey, this sounds really good! Do you still use the salt packet? I admit to avoiding because of a sodium sensitivity. But they are so gosh-darn cheap that I imagine half the USA will be living on them shortly!

    ISO: Cornish Pasties

    That does sound like an interesting complement to a pasty, although I never ever had a single request for it. I can't wait to try that!

    What Should You Be Doing Right Now?

    when you say ASL, are you referring to sign language? Nosy me, I know ... sorry, but I have a daughter wanting to work in that field and I don't even know what's available. Would love to pick your brain. :angel:

    What Should You Be Doing Right Now?

    hehehe I should be doing ANYTHING but wasting time on the computer! Laundry, grocery shopping, scrubbing floors, changing beds, scrubbing toilets ... no wonder I'm here!

    ISO: Cornish Pasties

    I should have read all the replies before I chimed in (sorry). We never precooked the meat. We diced carrots, onions, potatoes and ground our own beef, seasoned well with salt, pepper, garlic and parsley, and wrapped in homemade pastry dough rounds, folded over, sealed with the pastry wheel...

    ISO: Cornish Pasties

    Actually, no .. it is NOT pronounced the same ... it is pastie (pronounced like past-tense). And they are FABULOUS. We used to make them 100 at a time in my parents' restaurant as a kid. These are huge in Michigan's Upper Peninsula because of the mining history. Ours were even highlighted...

    Digital Cameras - thoughts?

    Tagging in late on this one, but our daughter is a budding photographer and wanted a megazoom point and shoot. We found the Panasonic TZ3 (which is now a TZ5, I believe) to have the best features for the investment. It's small, but not ultra thin, it takes sharp shots and the only negative is...

    Keep Katie E in Your Prayers

    Thank you. I hope Katie catches a break soon! Pray that she (and her kitties) are all safe from harm and that she doesn't have damage or lose power.

    Kentucky Fried Chicken

    Nutmeg tends to stand out for me (negatively), and I don't get that when I eat KFC. I can't believe nobody mentioned granulated onion until your recipe in December. There's no doubt in my mind that it's heavy on onion, both black and white pepper, and probably a sprinkle of cayenne for the...

    TNT potato soup recipe please

    Nope, never a break. But I make sure the roux is well incorporated into the milk (or vice versa I guess) before I add the potatoes and cheese and never quite bring it to a full simmer. Heck, sometimes I get sidetracked and even forget the sour cream and just add when we serve it to save some...

    TNT potato soup recipe please

    You know, I got that recipe from a fellow PC consultant and didn't even think about when to add the seasoning. I always add it after the roux and potatoes and find that it adds even more "body" to it. It's such a no-brainer recipe, I think I will start adding it at the beginning too, lol...
