"Like to cook" - the second helping
RE: "Like to cook" - the second helping
#51
250ml Coka Cola
250ml Ketchup
60ml Worcester sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon garlic granules
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sault
1 shot strongly peated whiskey

Put it in a pot, boil for 5-10 minutes and BBQ sauce is done.

I love the smell of rotaries in the morning. You know one time, I got to work early, before the rush hour. I walked through the empty carpark, I didn't see one bloody Prius or Golf. And that smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole carpark, smelled like.... ....speed.

One day they're going to ban them.

Lamb and Apricot Pine Nut Pilaf

Contains the three "c"s: cardamom, cinnamon, and clove.

They suggest a side dish to serve this with, but I think it looks to be a meal in itself...

Pirate Treasure Pancakes

While this one does have a recipe for pancakes, the important part is the techniques used to make the itty-bitty pancakes.

Or purchase a 'poffertjes' pan (the English translation is 'Dutch miniature pancakes', so...) and make those. They are usually served with powdered sugar and whipped cream. The recipe AFAIK isn't meaningfully different from pancake batter and usually they are flipped with a toothpick or small fork. Greasing the pan in that case is often done with a cooking brush dipped in oil.

Something both ancient and vegan...

Syrian "Foul Shami "

മെഴുകുപുരട്ടി - or, in the Latin alphabet, Mezhukkupuratti. This recipe replaces the usual ivy gourd with zucchini, so I won't be trying it.

Oh, about a month or so back, Peggy and Helen went shopping at the Mitsuwa Marketplace in Edgewater (about an hour away from us) and came back with (among other things) a block of frozen cooked udon noodles. So in the last few weeks I've made a couple of udon dishes:

Yaki udon -- stir fried udon

Nabeyaki udon -- udon soup

The latter recipe I tweaked a fair deal, skipping the tempura topping and the fish roll because I don't do seafood, but it came out great. I have a standing request from Peggy to make both again. (But we don't have enough udon left! Oh no!)

I'm pretty sure you can acquire udon uncooked easily enough, and as it's uncooked you can just have it delivered through the mail if you find shopping for it too bothersome.

I mean, it's just pasta.

Oh, we can get it much closer. It's just that she surprised me with it and I had to find recipes so it didn't live permanently in the freezer.

Edit: I should note that we (Peg and I, and/or our friends) head up to the Mitsuwa market as a fun daytrip. They have a food court with branches of some Japanese franchises that don't otherwise set up in the states, their grocery has a few products we can't find at closer Asian groceries (although the local H Mart has started stocking a few), they have a branch of NYC's Kinokuniya Book Store... stuff like that. It's not a shopping trip, it's a daytrip for a good meal that usually ends up with groceries coming back with us.

The radio recipes should be returning this weekend - the first episode of the new season was aired today, and it takes a few days between airing of the episode and posting of the recipe.

While we're waiting:

Pikoodinigan

If you don't speak Algonquin, call it "maple toffee". The ingredient list has one entry.

Happy Thanksgiving!

(Canadian Thanksgiving, that is.)

Last week's radio recipe is tandoori turkey. (Or tandoori tofu, or chicken, or shrimp - the recipe is for the marinade.)

Its not as important for YOU, Rob, since your 'harvest' festival was almost a month ago, but its good timing for those of us south of you.

While I have never done so myself, its claimed on a LOT of cooking shows that Brining one's bird is THE secret to both flavor and moisture

The jury's out on that, the last I heard. But there might have been some blind taste-tests that I'm not aware of.

Anyway...

Just discovered a Facebook group called "The Arctic Kitchen". I don't do Facebook. But there's a couple of recipes from that group on the web: cranberry bannock muffins and cake doughnuts from scratch.
