The sad part is we're not fighting over a girl. I nominate we vote Zaia the official Girl to Fight Over, even if at least one of us (namely me) can't really do anything with her even if I win :P (it gives the fight a nominal purpose at least)

...still looking for that blood pie recipe...

Actually it is sort of a delicacy here, although I think that it is an acquired taste. Personally I wouldn't touch that stuff with a ten-foot pole although the half-formed boiled duck embryo eggs are another matter... :twisted:

Althoug I'm sure you're DYING (Can you tell I'm full of myself? :P) to eat me, I doubt it would happen.

So I have to content myself with merely exchanging immensely pleasurable witticisms and teasings that you are oh-so-talented at. :)

LMAO @ Connor *wipes tear from eye*

Ahhhh....yes, 'dying', indeed.... Obviously my desire is so strong it seeps through the text on the screen to grip you by the balls. Oh, how I do wish I was not so transparent. :P :wink:

You're not kidding. Eww.

On the other hand, I eat edo-maizushi (Edo-style sushi; the Edo style includes nigiri - balls of rice with a piece of fish laid on top) without thinking twice.

Bleah. Sashimi = way too salty and vinegary for my taste, thanks. I'll stick to o-nigiri.

One of my favorites (from the international menu) is Shepherd's Pie. I can't cook it -- but I sure as hell wish I could. Good, good stuff.

That's an easy one. You just need some beef, even ground beef browned, veggies, and left over mashed potatos. Voila, Shepherd's Pie.

*Stunprods Connor*

don't make me have to go through and split this damn thing.

Now back to the food.

Ok, since I have heard from my mom this works on Ferret's as well as cats.

Mix Peppermint, & Spearmint with Catnip....
mom says it's a mellower high for them. (Kinda wonder about my mom don't you)and no Ein & Sheppard I still won't give her number or her email addy to either one of you. :P


Now from my Dad....
Olive oil + Italian Seaonings makes a very good smoking marinade for doing a non-red sauce BBQ stile coating for meats, particuarly poultry. I don't have to explain this one to the guys it's kind of a Y-Chrom "genetic memory" thing.

From me.
Slice 3 potatoes
boil in a medium sauce pan, then let cool till it's nice and body temp warm
add yeast
add flour
mix by hand
feed it some sugar
keep in a very warm dry dark place
feed it daily

You now have starter
when ever you feel like it, devide starter, and mix with flour, spices, cheese whatever.

Starter is good,
Sourdough is good

Finally found it! This is the recipe for dinuguan ie. pork-blood stew

1 lb Pork, diced
2 tb Oil
2 Cloves garlic, minced
1 Onion, diced
1/4 lb Pork liver, diced
1/2 c Vinegar
2 tb Patis (fish sauce)
1 ts Salt
1/4 ts MSG (optional)
1 1/2 c Broth
1 c Frozen pigs blood
2 ts Sugar
3 Hot banana peppers
1/4 ts Oregano (optional)


1. Cover pork with water and simmer for 30 minutes. Remove from broth and dice. Save 1-1/2 cups of broth.
2. In a 2-quart stainless steel or porcelain saucepan, heat oil and saute
garlic and onions for a few minutes. Add pork, liver, patis, salt and MSG.
Saute for 5 minutes more.
3. Add vinegar and bring to a boil without stirring. Lower heat and
simmer uncovered until most of the liquid has evaporated.
4. Add broth. Simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in blood and sugar; cook
until thick, stirring occasionally to avoid curdling.
5. Add hot banana peppers and oregano and cook 5 minutes more. Serve hot.

Preparation Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 50 minutes Serves 4


Yum Yum :twisted:

My dad ate blood sausage, and brains and eggs growing up. I cannot eat organ meats, and I categorically refuse to try anything with blood as the main ingredient.

Time for a little threadomancy...

Post by Iceberg »

Tested in my very own kitchen tonight, it's...

Mark's Leftover Goulash

1/2 pound ground beef
1/2 onion, diced
3-6 Roma tomatoes, diced
A few splashes (about half to 3/4 cup) of chianti or other red wine
A few shots Teriyaki sauce
A couple shakes of salt, pepper and basil
1 handful (6-10 sprigs) fresh thyme
4 tbsp. Butter
4 tbsp. Olive Oil (not extra-virgin; that smokes too easily)
Seasoning to taste (I used curry powder and hot sauce here)
1/2 package egg noodles

In a skillet over high heat, melt butter and add olive oil. When the butter and oil are completely melted, brown the meat with thyme and add onions. Once the onions soften and the meat is browned, add the wine, tomatoes, seasonings and teriyaki. Simmer until the water for the noodles is boiling, then remove to a serving bowl to rest. Boil noodles as directed on the package, drain. Serve goulash over noodles. Feeds 4, and it's great for getting rid of leftovers.

Well, I do not have anything profound. Im learning to cook at an embarrasing age.

I found out I can steam brocolli pretty nicely in my wok. I put water in the wok to about 1/4 in depth. Then I pick a head of broccoli, just enough for 1 person so were talking fist sized, and put it into the wok. Turn on heat to med-high and cover the wok with glass cover.

It steams real nice and quick.

Not a whole roast chicken. But I did something similar with chicken breasts, thank you. I found out I usually cant eat a whole chicken by myself before it goes bad. Besides Costco sells whole roast chickens for like 5 bucks. Its so cheap , its barely more than if I did it myself.
