Lemon juice in the plastic lemon..
I like to keep the plastic lemon on hand for hiccups. A couple squirts and they're gone. It beats wasting a fresh lemon, for sure.
"The Simpsons" and food.
My favorite is the episode when Homer gets a lobster (Pinchy) for the sole purpose of fattening it up to eat but becomes emotionally attached to it that he can't eat it when Marge is ready to cook it. Homer accidentally boils Pinchy by giving him a really hot bath and is shown both mourning and eating Pinchy at the same time, but won't share Pinchy with anyone because Pinchy "would've wanted that way."
Your most infamous kitchen misadventure
My brother and I were in our early teens when we attempted to make stovetop popcorn like our dad always made. We followed our father's ritual to a T, even the layer of paper towels he would put over the top of the pot to soak up the oil before putting the lid on. Well, when we placed the lid on the pot, the lid didn't secure the paper towels like we hoped and they fell into the pot with the oil and the popcorn kernels. In our failing efforts to fish out the oil-soaked paper towels, the kernels reached their popping point and started firing out from the pot at us. The image of my brother with the lid to the garbage can as his shield as he pressed his way forward to turn the stove off will never leave my mind. Golden.
Looking for Pecan Snack Food
Sahale Snacks makes it. It's the Valdosta blend. It's a favorite of mine, as well. I still find it at my local Target and Costco, too. Try Amazon.com. They sell it, also.
why cant americans make cheese ?
Capriole Farms!!! Judith Schad's cheeses are phenomenal!!! Do yourselves a favor and try her Mont St. Francis (mentioned above) and her Wabash Cannonball.
What to eat with cottage cheese?
Not exactly healthy, but, I love cottage cheese with potato chips. Just scoop up some cottage cheese with the chip and enjoy!!
Favorite cooking word or phrase?
I've always been partial to "brown bits" and chiffonade. How about you?
