I like those too! Something in the simplicty of how they are made as a
basic pickle appeals better than the 'fancy stuff'.
 
Kroger has a store brand quite close to them.

Other people are welcome to eat pickles in any way they wish. I'm
going to refrain from eating battered and deep-fried dill pickles.

well first I have to ask you why are you in a foodie room?
Second I have to say that if you have an airfryer and you do the
first step lets say a week or two in advance and you do a couple of
lbs of potatoes then freeze them you will be set for a couple of
weeks....
You can wake up in the AM throw your frozen fries and precut veggies
in the airfryer set it for 10 mins, put on a pot of coffee fry an egg
shake your fries make your coffee make a cheese sauce plate your
food.. then eat that shit up like there is no tomorrow. But I must say
if it is done right it makes a great meal lets say for a family
brunch.. I mean if you spend a few extra minutes on garnish and egg
and cheese placement you can have meal deserved of a michelin star

I can make a great skillet breakfast, takes maybe an hour in total.
Without an air frier or over the course of many days.
 
Brown some pork breakfast sausage (or strips of bacon) in a cast iron
skillet. Meanwhile, slice or shred about four russet potatoes. I don't
need instructions on how to do this. I have a food processor which
slices very evenly. Or I could use the shredding blade. Press excess
water out of the potatoes.
 
Remove the browned sausage (or bacon). Leave some of the still hot fat
in the still hot skillet. Add the sliced or shredded potatoes. Pack
them in tightly so as to brown the bottom of the potatoes over medium
heat; they'll form a sort of a crust that is browned on the bottom.
Scramble four or 5 large eggs with a fork and season lightly with S&P.
Pour over the potatoes in the skillet. Sprinkle the cooked sausage (or
crumbled bacon) on top and add a couple of handfuls of shredded cheese
(your choice). Pop it in the oven at about 325F for 25 minutes until
the potatoes are cooked through, the eggs are set and the cheese is
nicely melted and sort of browned on top.
 
Doesn't take days to do. And it's very tasty!

You mistake the nature of rec.food.cooking. It is not a foodie
room (and it's not a room, it's Usenet newsgroup). It is for
discussion of food and cooking. As such, cold cereal is well
within the charter.
 
Blessed be.

  Well , it wouldn't be a problem for me , I'm home pretty much all the
time . Just one more "plant" to tend - I've probably got close to 40
house plants and garden seedlings going right now . (A lot of those
house plants will be sold for Mother's day gifts.)

True. I don't think about stir fry or ramen type meals very often.

Perhaps what you bought isn't as fresh as you think. Bean sprouts and
bok choi when stir fried cook down to about half, and then when sauced
cook down even more. It was a very large head of bok choi bought
recently so I reserved ten inner stalks to add to a tossed salad, and
that's what I'm eating right now. I've never found that Chinese
greens go off quickly, a fresh head of bok choi will easily keep well
for three weeks in the fridge... it's a type of cabbage. Bean sprouts
go off after a week, but I don't see them for sale any more. I don't
try to save stir fry veggies, I prepare them all right away. I can
finish a 4 quart pot of chow mein in two days. However eaten raw in a
salad they are a lot more filling. I like the white part of bok choi
as crudites for dipping, cut into sticks it good for dipping in salsa.

Depending on location bean sprouts don't sell before they spoil, and
the stores need to buy a fairly large crate from the wholesaler. The
only Oriental veggies stocked around here is bok choy and napa, and
only a minimal delivery once a week... often I can't buy bok choy as
it's sold out.... I don't list Ginger root in that group but I can buy
that, There are very few Orientals living in this area and only one
Chinese take out in town and their food is disgusting... they sell
something called Boneless Spareribs... I've no idea what cut of meat
it is and I'll never buy it again, tossed it out for the critters.

The information from foodsafety.gov does not indicate that only
bean sprouts are risky.
 
Those other types are more commonly eaten raw. Bean sprouts are generally
cooked at least a little bit.

The ketchup and mayo mix is often refereed to as a Russian dressing,
for instance thousand island is a ketchup and mayo mix and is a
Russian dressing. I do have a wonderful thousand island recipe
available upon request.

From your wording I presume there you mean that you really likes the

There ya go. I always mix mayo and ketchup together for dipping
veggies and also for a salad dressing when eating lasagna or
spaghetti. Salad/with that dressing on the same plate as that
dressing goes good with the tomato based sauce. YUM
 
I did save that recipe to try next time I make this.
It's just added W-sauce and garlic. Sounds good to me.
 
I've done ketchup with worchestershire sauce for dipping fries.
good but most times I prefer fries plain with salt and tons of
black pepper. I actually blacken the pile of fries with the
pepper. Many foods can get way too peppery but for some reason,
potatoes of any kind will accept it and still be good.
 
==
 
You always call it '' Worchestershire sauce and it makes me smile:))
 
Not that it matters much and I know what you are referring to but it is
actually 'Worcestershire sauce' and we just call it 'Wuster sauce' :))
 
It is named after a place here called Worcester (which we pronounce Wuster)
which is in Worcestershire:))
 
Just sayin' :))))

Would you mind re-posting the link to the rye bread recipe you've been
using? I think it was a Taste of Home recipe, IIRC. I thought I had saved
the link but sadly I can't find it. I'm stuck at home with nasty shingles,
and baking bread is a good spirit mender. I thought I'd give your recipe a
go.

I am so sorry to hear about your shingles:( Hope you are better very soon!
