Your mom's weird cooking ... and other stories? (recipes encouraged)
This is actually a scary story about Turkey Day at my grandmother's house. Not to speak ill of the dead but she used to prep her big, 25lb. Turkeys a day or 2 beforehand including loading lots of stuffing into the birds. Then into the fridge the whole bacteria culture went until it was ready to cook then and grace our Thanksgiving table. I think that the only reason noone ever seemed to get sick was that she was the queen of the sterile household. All the same this story always triggers my gag reflex a tad.
Last minute downtown LA help
I've been going to Phillipe's since I was a little kid 40 years ago! I love the Beef Dip Sandwiches, the ladies behind the counter and the sawdust on the floor. It has been a few years since I've been and now I think I am definitely due for a road trip down from Santa Ynez!
ISO: Brussel Sprouts recipes
Hi,
I love the rich nutty flavor of Brussel Sprouts roasted in Olive Oil, Garlic Powder or Fresh Garlic and Salt to taste. If desired add some toasted Pine Nuts and Freshly Grated Parmesan Cheese. yummy!
Calling California Hunters
I would just Google keywords dressing wild game feral pig or boar. Nowadays with the plethora of info on the web you should be deluged with information.
Too many apricots!!
I just finished making a tree-full of Apricot Jam-it came to a little over a gallon and a half of finished, canned Jam. I use it for topping ice cream, chicken, in sauces and sometimes just for a bite of summer during winter I'll sneak a teaspoonfull straight out of the jar! I use the recipe in The Ball Blue Book of Canning. Next up are the plums as Summer arrives.
