We all love good food. Here on DC, we have a good number of accomplished cooks/chefs who can make some pretty high end preparations. But jus sometimes, it's good to go back to the simple foods that bring back great memories, or create new ones with family and friends. mayo This is what I'm talking about:
My Grandpa made a lot of chicken fried steak, with boiled potatoes. He had a three bladed veggie chopper, where the center blade was spring loaded and justted out from between the other two blades. He dredged the meat in seasoned flour, then used the chopper to tenderize everything. Then. The spuds were peeled, and put into the pot, and the steaks put into the electric frying pan. Pan gravy was made from the drippings. There was always some kind of canned veggie to go with it. And I loved his waffles. Never stop making them.
