I'm late with this post but was wondering what graced your table
today?

Here it was cabbage with cubed ham and a small skillet of cornbread.
Dessert was a slice of cornbread with a bit extra butter and to finish it
all off a glass of milk. There's enough left over for Tuesday night's
dinner.

Roasted chicken thighs and carrot, baked potato, steamed broccoli and
cauliflower. Apple crisp for dessert.

Oh, very cozy, Joan...!!!

Me, I had some Chinese grub delivered, had egg rolls and sesame chicken... tasty...

Also ordered pot stickers, BBQ pork chow mein, home - style spicy tofu, that will
be consumed later this week...

Ordered for the first time from Uber Eats, they gave me a $35.00 credit, and the chow mein
was free as an "introductory offer, so the whole shebang with a 25% tip and free introductory
delivery was only $25.00. Generous portions and enough for three+ meals, so not too shabby...

Lots of good Chinese places about, there are many wealthy Chinese college students so
the competition is fierce for good food, much to choose from. Much standard Chinese - American
fare, but some authentic stuff, e.g. lamb entrails, tripe dishes and the like...

There *was* a Panda Express, but it closed, guess most peeps sneered at it when so many
decent choices at various prices abound, lol...

Same happened with Subway and Domino's, much better places around so no business for their
mediocre fare...

There are two quite good Chinese restaurants that I stop in often. But one of them has
just awful pot stickers and the other one I could just stand there and eat and let the
other diners walk around me. Hahahahaaa

I'm definitely not impressed with Panda Express, everything looks delicious but is
absolutely tasteless.

Chicken pot pie. I didn't make it, went to my son's for dinner. His
wife made them in ramekins and made me one to bring home. I'll have

I've been going there regularly. They have a buffet. At night when they close, everything is on discount, haha.

I have lots of turkey now and turkey broth. I plan to make many someday
soon. Just add vegetables and thicken the broth with roux or cornstarch.
I like them made with a top and bottom crust.

Think "Styrofoam Chinese food"... it's cheap chain food...

Like the stuff I had at Culver's this fall. Tried a bunch of stuff, it was not "bad" - but now that
I think about it everything was "formed", like Styrofoam. The burgers my corner pizza joint
makes are *real*, you can taste them, they have some heft...

I agree with Joan, they are McDonald's quality Chinese. What I mean, is
they aren't terrible, but typical cheap fast chain food... (almost) any
local Chinese shop will do far better.

whole wheat pasta is terrible and I'd opt for rice any day over that.

We had pork spareribs baked at 250 degrees for 4 1/2 hours in a covered glass
casserole, canned green beans and mashed potatoes. Then I painted the
individual ribs with Bullseye BBQ sauce.
I cook the ribs to get the rib broth for an upcoming posole. It's a
vicious cycle. Cook ribs. Freeze the broth. Make posole. Cook ribs. Freeze
the broth. Make posole. Cook ribs...
We love posole. Thanks, recipe off of a Teasdale hominy can, slightly
modified!

When we moved into this house forty years ago, the previous owner left a
odd looking flat iron mold that had what looked like small corncob
impressions stamped or machined into it.
What the Hell was that? I chucked it. I still kick myself :-)

I agree also. A top and bottom crust gives the proper amount of "bread"
to the filling of pot pies.

Bake it, stir it all up then have a nice feast.

Same with dessert pies. Always a bottom crust but sometimes not a top crust.

That's interesting. I've never thought of breaking the crust and stirring it all up. That's kind of weird - but it might be brilliant.

If you are approached in the Soviet Zone, remember:
1. Don’t commit yourself to anything
2. Ask for time to think it over
3. Remember all details about people, conversations, and locations
4. Don’t investigate the incident yourself
5. Do not discuss it with anyone
6. Never reply in German to a Soviet Zone German in uniform - ask, in English, to see Soviet Military staff
7. Report immediately afterwards to your Commander

Thank you for your unintentional reminder, Jill.

I've got another 4-quarts of chicken/turkey vegetable soup simmering on
the stove this morning and I forgot to add a little pasta for noodles.

I use larger pasta (so far) but the angel hair would be perfect for soup
as they all swell up in soup. I break them into very short pieces before
I add them. I just added some linguini to my soup and I've got Angel
Hair on my grocery list.

:)

Talking to my daughter yesterday, she made a large batch of spaghetti
sauce with meatballs. Said she made some extra for me if I was
interested. Oh heck, yeah!

I do sometimes, depending on my mood. Tastes good to me, but eat it up
before the crust gets really soggy, because then it's like mushy

My wife once ordered some bibimbap in a Korean restaurant on the mainland. This was back in the old days, when I was unfamiliar with the things that Koreans eat. I never saw bibimbap before and when the bowl was brought to the table, I thought it was one of the most beautiful dishes I had ever seen. She then proceeded to mix the whole thing up in a gloppy mess. What a shock that was! It turns out that's the way Koreans will eat bibimbap.

I always have many different types of dried pasta on hand. For tomato
with meat sauce ("spaghetti" sauce) I prefer angel hair to actual
spaghetti pasta. <shrug>

For brothy noodle soups, it the type of pasta depends on the type of
soup. :)

I mix it some, but not thoroughly. For one thing, there's usually too much

You can't please everyone. I had a sister in law whose tastes were the
opposite of mine. She loved one particular restaurant and ate there
every week. She was always on our case to come. I went a couple times
and did not like it. She didn't like the restaurants I liked. When I
used to rent movies I tended to avoid the Oscar winners and other movies
they had multiple copies of.

I absolutely have, twice and at two different locations. After giving
them two chances to impress me and both times were disappointing
I've not seen the need to go back. Too many good Chinese restaurants
to waste my money there again.

No, I have not and I've never once wanted to eat there either. Maybe
someday, but I'm not rushing out to dine there in the foreseeable

At least you've tried it so you have a valid opinion.
I still want to try someday as every one has different tastes.
Once I do that, I'll try to remember to give my own review.

Years ago, there was a "Beijing Express" restaurant here. I loved that
stuff. For awhile, their website was almost identical to the new "Panda
Express" site. That makes me wonder if it's the same company under a
new name.

My new can doesn't have the recipe, but I found this. The recipe
purports to be the Teasdale one.

<https://www.mexgrocer.com/71240-01237.html>

So here's what I do. Finding split pigs feet has always been hit or
miss, so that's why I use spare rib broth. I do things that remove my
posole from the realm of authenticity.

INGREDIENTS:
Approximately 1# pork stew meat (I cut into approx 1/2" chunks)
1 30 oz can Teasdale hominy (white or gold, doesn't matter)
1 10 oz can Las Palmas red enchilada sauce (any red would probably do)
1/2 head of medium cabbage coarse chopped, rustic style.
The broth from those spareribs you made (probably a 1/2 to a full cup)
1 7 oz can of diced green chiles (mild, medium or hot, your choice)
1 lemon
cornstarch in water to thicken to your desire (not authentic)
Your favorite corn chips on the side

METHOD:
Fill a 3 qt pot halfway with water. A bigger pot would be OK too.
Throw in the pork chunks and bring to a boil. Skim off the pork scum and
reduce the heat to a simmer.
Pour in the enchilada sauce, pork broth and hominy and let simmer for
three or more hours with the lid on. Add water as necessary to keep
things soupy. Toward the end, add the chiles.
Dump in the chunked cabbage and simmer for a half-hour or until you
get it the way "you" like it. At this point, a 3 qt pot should be just
short of plumb full. If not add a little water.
Now taste the dish and add salt if needed. You probably won't. Thicken
the shebang with a cornstarch slurry, squeeze in the lemon juice from
the whole lemon, and you're ready to eat.
Here's a 3 qt potful. I've probably posted the pic before.
