Everybody knows the answer to that and it wasn't with marbles in a

Depends on the cookie; depends on how you like your cookies. I prefer
to melt the butter for chocolate-chip cookies. It makes them chewy.

Get the butter at room temp, and you can cream it with a wooden spoon
or a whisk-like device.

After the recent discussion here, I thought I would post this You Tube
video. And no, I didn't find it. Somebody told about it. Pretty sure he
didn't actually buy that stuff at Whole Foods though. It is funny!

Agree about that, I prefer farmed salmon too.

That's presumably because you are talking Pacific salmon, wild
north Atlantic salmon is to die for but incredibly expensive now.

Things that taste good are my favorite flavor, and I wouldn't shoot a
turkey that wasn't going to get eaten. I would like you watch your ass
bleed out, though I'd hope you'd provide a nice feast for the vultures.

Sure, because she has the machine, but Sanders would run stronger in the
general. Hey, 20,000 in Seattle. That follows 11,000 in Phoenix and
14,000 in Salt Lake City.

Odds are that he *will* lose to Clinton, and I never said otherwise, but
he's not of of it yet, and he is the stronger candidate in the general
election.

Didn't cross my mind you could buy skinless pork belly! To me that's
what pork belly is - the purveyor of loads of crackling! Nancy must
have wondered why I left it uncovered overnight in the fridge, that
was so the crackling would be even better.

Agreed!
 
I bought some the other week in Ripon. I chose a piece from display and he
proceeded to score it!! I politely informed him I didn't want it scored!
 
I like to use my .. um .. thingy with all the wee blades.

I do sometimes buy the pork belly strips one sees in the supermarkets
here and use a Chinese friends recipe. It's delicious, in spite of
the fact that like you, I don't generally go for heavy spicing. You
can leave it as long as you like between wokking, so it's not really
as time consuming as the recipe may look. Served with plain rice,
delish.
 
Pkt of porkbelly
 
Goodly amount of frying oil in the wok
 
Cornflour
Egg
Thai Sauce
Ketchup
Salt
 
Cut the porkbelly into small pieces. Heat the oil in the wok until
quite hot. Quickly brown the pieces in the oil in small proportions.
 
Drain and cool.
 
Mix the sauce ingredients together and dip the pork pieces in it.
 
Refry and then put to drain on wax paper.
 
When ready to serve, quickly refry yet again.

When I said, "we", I meant the collective we. I can't remember who it was

Well, I got my beef sorted and in the fridge on Friday. I read a lot of
recipes but mostly stuck to the one you posted. I was late getting started
because I tried to get some sodium nitrite on line but I couldn't find a
company who will send it to the UK. I wasn't overly bothered because I know
you had said it was mainly for the colour but I thought I would give it a
try. If I ever manage to get any I will try it out.
 
As you know we don't like spicy stuff so into the water I mixed salt,
carrots, onions (as per the recipe) as well as dried mushrooms and Italian
seasoning which we love. I took my life in my hands and bought some paprika
of which I used a fair amount. It was only later I realised I had used the
sweet paprika ... so, it should be interesting ...
 
It was a 5lbs joint so cut it in half as was advised and it has been
sitting in the fridge since then. I occasionally lift the lid and give it a
poke:)
 
I have to say it does smell good:) I will take it out on Wednesday and cook
it.
 
Does every one here boil it on the hob or will it do well in the slow
cooker? Am I right in thinking you cook yours with potatoes and cabbage?
 
Incidentally I did find out about Prontocure (the stuff I was asking about
long ago) and it is used as a dry rub. Does anyone here use dry rub on
their meats?

Just last week I read in a cooking magazine (e.g., Cooking Light, Food &
Wine, Cook's Country, Cook's Illustrated, or Cuisine at Home) that
keeping a marshmallow or two in with the brown sugar will keep it from
bricking or getting clumpy. My guess is it works and might be a
preferable alternative to a slice of bread ;-)

I wanted original brats to make brat burgers on Friday, but they only
had the beer brats so I mixed it half & half with plain hamburger.
Glad I did because I wouldn't have wanted any more seasoning than that
in my burger meat.

Oh nonsense! On both counts. Sure some people think this way. Certainly
not all.

And getting numerous handjobs to follow up your racist dreck, you're
badly broken. You need help, bub. Like a check up from the neck up. The
net effect of this obsession of yours has been to make me feel quite
powerful :)
Simply by disagreeing with something you said, you sad anonymous cunt,
I've taken over your head-space and put myself front & center in your
otherwise lackluster existence.
 
Protip: get a life :)
