YEG Urban China

YYC has quite a few places offering dim sum buffet. Why can't we get that here?

YEG Urban China

Trying to find a dim sum place that is good is so challenging.

Tried Urban China which looked really busy. Their stuff was just ok so why is soo busy? Their bathroom smells worse than a dirty diaper. When mentioning it to a server she just laughed and said yeah it does smell. Does that say anything about the kitchen ?

Any new opinions on where to DS ?

Whats the best place for dim sum YYC?

Since the popular Mirama in edm is closed where is everyone going for dim sum in YEG ? Does anyone know why it was closed?

What's good for dim sum in YYC. I find that places aren't consistent.

YEG Dim Sum

Heard there was a new resturant for dim sum in Edm. Some of the grumblings I've heard was that it was pricey and not very good.

Any opinions out there and what is it called?

slider buns

I thought I would try ,making the sliders and i found whole grain slider buns at superstore.

They are 110 cal per 2 slices. I was wondering does anyone this is high for such a small piece of bread?

sodium is 160 mg

Gordon Ramsay in Edmonton

new resturant "Prince Seafood resturant"

Anyone know anything about a new resturant where Singpore Sam's/Pearl Garden is? We were going to Michael's and saw a bunch of people workng on the exterior and a sign showing a different name...

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

i tried one day before. I have a whole of beans left. Should have figured out if I could cook beans before i bought all these bean bags lol

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

i guess i did after every 4 hours. I checked different beans. Some of the them seemed ok but the red kidney ones were crunchy. the beans all looked murky brown and smelt terrible. I picked out the white kidney beans and threw the rest out.

new Indian rest NE?

Thank you for the tid bit! Have you guys done any reviews on either one of them ?

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

well after giving up on beans for while... I decided to try again. There's bean salad called Tuscan Bean Salad made by Duso's that comes from Costco thats really good. it has the kidney, chick peas, pinto and white navy beans.

I soaked those beans 5 days changing the water each day. They looked rehydrated finally and now they've been cooking in the slow cooker. It's been a day. I had it on highh for 5 hrs and low. They still seem hard. Don't suppose anyone's got a good bean salad receipe

cooking the beans for 12 hours? wow... so maybe i should be using a slow cooker? I dont have a pressure cooker. I don't think I want a pot on the stove for so long.

I'll have to try the baking soda..

Thanks everyone!! :D

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

ok i will try that one too.. i did try soaking the beans in vinegar... as i was trying ot make a bean salad to get them to soften up but they were pretty much the same.

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

well i try a batch of chickpeas, then i try mixed beans.. white and red kidney beans. i figure they're all beans they should cook at the same rate.

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

ok well i ll try salting the soaking water then ... im determined to figure this out as i dont want to buy the canned beans even though i like the softer texture.

There is nothing worse than bad cake...

what's the difference between black velvet and red velvet cake? just the dye?

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

wow it's hard to determine how old the beans are .. theres no date on the package.

it's sounding more and more that i have to cook the beans for a very long time.

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

i was reading the sodium content on cans.. and thought i could avoid the salt if i cooked the beans myself... are you saying the beans won't become soft without salt ?

Why don't dry beans come out like canned beans

no i didnt salt the water.... does that soften the bean?

well...i thought home cooking the beans would be better but ive tried it 4 times and it doesnt get better hahah
