Please share! A place to post your leftover-use-it-before-it-goes-bad creations. I admit I bought the bok choy today, but that always needs rescuing eventually because they are so big. And of course the herbs are to help. :ahem: Mushrooms Sweet potato Fennel Onion Bok choy Celery Micro...

I'm looking at buying a smart slow cooker - does anyone have one? Pros and cons? When I am at work, I am typically gone 10-12 hours. My hope is to start something on low for 4 hours, set it to warm for a few hours and then back to low to finish cooking for when I get home. I don't *think*...

My first try at fried rice: Brown rice Shrimp Egg Green onion Bacon Pork roast (leftover) Mushrooms Safflower oil Next time I'll add more veggies! Eat anything you want, but make it yourself. Posting from the app.

My oven did this with a pizza a while back and we thought maybe the pizza had partially thawed. But this is sourdough. This is on the convection setting. Has anyone else had this happen? I'm going to do some googling. Eat anything you want, but make it yourself. Posting from the app.

There can't be such a thing! While in WI, I impulse-bought 1.5 lb package of "veggie" Jack cheese. In my defense, I purchased the smallest package, and stimulated the local economy. It's okay, it's not bad. But for snacking I prefer something a little stronger. Thought I might try cheese...

So this happened today. Sourdough. Always a bummer when bread doesn't turn out given all the work. I will not be taking this to my sister's... Now ideas for it? Eat anything you want, but make it yourself. Posting from the app.

Hi all - I made a frozen pizza (practically against my will but that is another story) and set my oven to convection. Look at how it cooked! I'd like to blame the pizza but I'd bet the cardboard cheese and wood dust crust is distributed evenly. Thoughts? I haven't had any other issues with my...

I just found out TONIGHT the party I am going to tomorrow is a much smaller group and not as food venturous. And I've prepared organic beef tongue. The birthday girl thinks I should just say it's beef and not share what part. "Don't say tongue." I feel like lying to someone about what I'm...

Going to a friend's b-day and have been tasked with bringing a "substantial" appetizer. This group likes different foods and I have 3 beef tongues in my freezer. I will need to serve it cold. I am thinking served on baguette with condiments. Was searching threads and found mustard and horse...

Hi - has anyone made cracklings? The lard topic reminded me I had some leaf lard to render. Now I've got the makings for cracklings - trying on my cast iron now... What about a slow cooker? Thoughts? Thanks! Eat anything you want, but make it yourself. Posting from the app.

Cooking friends - I inherited some cast iron (in a round about way, not my family) and one of the pans is an ebelskiver pan. Took some searching to figure out what it was, I thought it was for escargot. It's Danish and the traditional recipe is for these super versatile round pancakes. Can...

I'm using Masa Harina and the recipe on the bag (white bag). When rolling, they either stick too much or fall apart. I am super frustrated. I made other breads so I understand needing to adjust flour/water. I've tried using parchment and wax paper and just on the counter. Using a rolling...

I've been trying to get a cracker dough pizza crust this week. Have tried the following: Used bread flour, put at bottom of the oven, 500 degrees, open door every so often to keep the heating element on and I use a pizza stone. My last attempt got me extremely tough crust - but not cracker...

Hi All - I was supposed to bring breakfast to work today but my oatmeal buffet idea never came through because the oatmeal came out a little bit soupy. It's not totally ruined and it tastes good - but it wasn't servable to co-workers. Any ideas on what to do with a whole ton of cooked...

I needed some for a chili recipe and now I have an entire bag. I probably could have subbed flour, but no, I went and bought a bag of something I don't know what to do with... Ideas??? Recipes???

Hi All, For Christmas Eve dinner I am making stuffed pork chops for 5 people. I have not done these before but found a reliable recipe that I think will work. This recipe calls for 4 bone-in chops. I want to use boneless. Is there anything I need to change here? I have never cooked bone-in...

Here in MN we are having an awful blizzard...the worst in 20 years! I am completely snowed in. The only way I can get out is if I ski or snowshoe...no kidding! So, tonight is stew with wine, bread and hot chocolate...anyone else in the midwest?

Hi - I am making caramel apple pie for Thanksgiving. I can find a lot of recipes - but I like my apple pie recipe and don't want to change it. What is the best way to add caramel? I don't want it to harden when cooled. I was thinking I could put the caramel on the bottom, on top of the...

Hi All - I am having surgery on 11/10 and will be recovering at home after I get out of the hospital. So I'm making soup. I want to make a casserole too...I've never frozen a casserole and I know there are some kind of assemble and bake ones out there. Any suggestions? It's good surgery - to...

Hi All, I made a good chili yesterday that is just too soupy and I'm not sure how to fix that. Here's the ingredients: 2 ancho chilies 2 pasilla chilies 2 guajillo chilies 2 canned chipotles in adobo 1 cup brewed coffee 12 oz pale ale 3 lbs boneless short ribs large onion 2 garlic cloves...

I've decided I want to give these a try - grass fed, free range, no antibiotics/hormones chicken so I'm feel adventurous. How do I cook these? Cooks Illustrated did me wrong (have to "upgrade" to see the receipe) and I'm not finding anything I feel is reliable...mixed reviews. I've never...

It's in the fridge right now. I took it out last night and it's still pretty frozen. Will brining help thaw? Or do I just need to be patient? it's a 4 lb chicken. I was hoping to roast it tonight! Thank you!
