The Cooking, Drink and Food Forum
We're having ham, au gratin potatoes, green bean casserole, and probably some kind of pie for dessert. Not sure if my husband's planning anything else at this point, sometimes he gets it in his head to try a new side, but that's our basic Easter...
I don't know why it is but brand name foods usually taste just that little bit better than the shop's own equivalent and so if I can, I always prefer to get the brand name products. Kellogg's Cornflakes always taste better than the other brands,...

Garlic!
Well?

Find a small white half round Japanese serving bown about 4" in max diameter and 2.25" deep. Add 8 top quality Queen Stuffed Olives, One tall shooter glass of Tito's vodka, and a dash of very dry vermouth. Chill in the freezer for 15 minutes. ...
Do you like raw onions?
We're going to a chili potluck this weekend, and I've been charged with bringing some with no beans. Anyone have a good recipe they could share?
Fall always seems like time to bring out the slow-cooker...such an easy way to make comfort food for chilly days and football! I made this recipe today; it was super easy and tasty. You will never eat more tender chicken! 4-8 chicken thighs 4...
I love Polish sausage and sauerkraut, but my husband is not a fan of the latter. So, I'm trying to come up with recipes and ways of using the sausage that don't involve the kraut. One thing I do with it is make sort of a mock cassoulet thing...
Here they are, the beers Americans drink most. If this was all they had at the bar, which would you choose?

Gotta pick one.
Milk?
How do you feel about a nice bagel with cream cheese? Also, what kind of bagel do you like? What kind of cream cheese? Do you like your bagel toasted? Bonus questions: When did bagels come out of the closet?
I honestly did not think there was such a thing as too much coffee until Starbucks decided to roll out it's new Trenta size of coffee. It contains as much as a bottle of wine in one cup at 31 fluid oz. Seriously, do you really need a coffee cup...
It's getting cold outside, so we decided to be cozy and make some homemade soup and bread. My husband's in charge of the soup. We had some asparagus to use up, so he's making cream of asparagus with mushroom. I'm making the bread, and I'm...
This thread is the result of me buying some cocktail sauce last night. Yum! In high school I worked--for seven hellish months--at a Long John Silvers. There I was exposed to both cocktail sauce and malt vinegar. I can live without the...
What's your favorite diet pop? (I don't say soda and don't want to talk about it.) I am a dedicate Diet Pepsi guy, but just had Cherry Coke Zero and found that to be pretty yummy.
Do tell...
What's your favourite variety of cheese? I'm hoping for some gouda responses. *ba-boom!*
Tea, of course, being the refined refresher of choice for ladies and gentlemen of all descriptions. But how do you prefer it? Why should coffee get its own way, and there are so many more flavours anyway?
Anybody ever make it before? Any tips, tricks or recipes you'd suggest? I'm one of those weird people who actually likes fruitcake and I was thinking I'd attempt to make one.
Pick one, and add your own! Fun for the whole family. Unless you don't have a computer- then this game sucks. Or you're really hungry. Then this game might also suck. I'll start:
I am thinking of doing the Melt Challenge when I'm next in Cleveland. The Melt Challenge consists of 13 different cheeses all held in place by 3 pieces of grilled bread, a pile of hand-cut fries & slaw. It weighs in at over 5 pounds of...
Okay, you're on the road, nothing for miles save a truck stop with the following mini-restaurants inside. Which do you go with? :hoj:
And it was darn tasty. Don't know why I was so afraid of it all these years.
I've got peach schnapps, orange juice, vodka, cranberry juice, whiskey (bourbon and irish), coca-cola, and can probably muster up some wine and/or beer, what cocktails can i make??
This list is per Lycos. Which is your fave? :hoj:
I've had a crockpot going since last night. I put in a layer of kielbasa, a layer of sauerkraut, then two red delicious apples, peeled and grated, then more sauerkraut, then another 1/2 pound of kielbasa and one final layer of sauerkraut. Then I put...
A nutritional expert has just lost two stone of weight on a diet of cream cakes, snacks, sugars and biscuits. His diet also dropped his cholesterol by 20% and another fat group by 39%. How did he do it, well by dropping his calorie intake from...
I have decided that I'd like to make something for dinner involving a can of tuna and brown rice. Why? I have no idea. Sometimes I just like to do stuff like that. So what meal can I make utilizing these two ingredients? I already have a ton of...
Please pick your favorite cola. For fair comparison, let's assume we're talking about drinking from a 12-oz can. :hoj:
Friendly Flotsam(tm) Ingredients: 1 shot vodka 4 oz lemon lime soda 1 tablespoon finely crushed dried yard waste 1 drop olive oil (optional) In a wide-mouth glass combine the vodka and soda. Carefully distribute yard waste over surface...
PETA's latest advertisement campaign involves a bikin wearing Pamela Anderson being marked up into the various cuts of meat that can be carved from a carcass. Now, it looks as though PETA are obviously not butchers because they missed plenty of...
Boolnog and Gwen just arrived hear from Gloknith, a small but influential nation on Mars (Think U.K.). They're starving, and have asked you to prepare for them a meal that best represents the cuisine of your planet. Let's say you do this in...
Am I right? Low fat, some protein. What am I missing? And really, if each "newt" has but one gram of fat hidden in its yummy, cakey self, what's the point of Fat Free Newtons? Is this a trick? What am I missing? I love Fig Newtons. I even...
Pick one! All are served with a pickle spear and small paper cup full of creamy cole slaw.
I seem to have found myself in a dinner-exchange with a friend of ours who is a stay-at-home dad. We get the kids together to play once a week, and whoever's house we're at cooks dinner for everyone. They are vegetarians, and I'm thinking I don't...
After a great night with lots of takeout pizza, there are sometimes a few slices leftover in the morning. What do you do with them?
Add any you want to share! Chocolate Cinnamon Ice Cream 2 cups heavy whipping cream 1 cup milk 1/4 cup cocoa powder 4 ounces bittersweet or semi-sweet chocolate 1/2 cup sugar
Specifically, the deep dish kind. I just had it for the first time and it is, frankly, obscene. I don't think food like this should be allowed to exist. It's like somebody took the term "pizza pie" and took it to some bizarre, wonderful new...
I'm currently burning 2 sticks of incense to drive the nauseating stench of garlic out of my room. All day I've been thinking about pasta. Fettuccine alfredo, to be precise. I simply had to have fettuccine for dinner. So I got some, thinking that...
I'm drinking the first of these. I haven't tried any of the others yet but I think I will.
Our local shop does lots of filled doughnuts. Everyone eats the jam-filled, apple-filled or custard-filled doughnuts. But no-one will even look at the chocolate-filled doughnuts. Would anyone here eat them, or is it just a sugar overload?
Ben And Jerry's Ice cream is going to have to drop the "all-natural" part os its description, because .... well.... it isn't. Looks like Corn syrup and partially hydrogenated soya bean oil really don't fit the bill of what is supposed to be an...
