Overheard on the Home Cooking Board

"The only time I can count on my husband coming home early is when he knows I'm making prime rib. I use [Ina Garten's] recipe and it always comes out perfectly. Start with a shrimp cocktail, bake some potatoes, and buy something wonderful for dessert. It is an easy meal that is impressive." – DaisyM on what to cook to woo someone

"The reason brining works is because it is the nature of salt water to travel through membranes from a place with a high concentration of salt to a place with a lower concentration of salt. You need your brine to contain enough salt that this effect will happen or the brining won't take place." – Morganna

"One reason I like to get the higher-end Spanish and Italian canned tuna is that the oil is good. I've made the mayonnaise dressing for vitello tonnato with oil from the tuna can, plus more fresh [oil] as needed, because I like my tonnato sauce to be nice and fishy." – Will Owen
