Just look at the number of people here who think that people should not
consider themselves to have been inconvenienced because we have to do
whatever we can if a child is in danger, and that it is selfish not to
be concerned.

Some people just can't cook or don't know what to do with come cuts. One
time when I was visiting my grandmother my aunt was preparing supper.
She had some decent looking lamb chops that she started cooking. It was
a long time ago but she sort of seared them and added some water to the
pan and put a top on and was planning to eat them in about an hour. I
just couldn't imagine them being good.

that's the way a lot of people were brought up to cook. Mom and
grandma did it that way.

Sounds good. my husband loves beans like this as a main course or a
side dish.

bacon's good. my navy been soup is based on a smoked ham hock. i've even used a smoked turkey drumstick before. the ham hock after it's cooked i'll eat the meat. the turkey not so much.

My aunt and uncle retired to Florida back in the 1970s. They used to
come back to visit friends and family yearly. He died a couple years ago
but she is still there.

Forget the "salad frosting," Julie.
My question was about your parents telling young Angela that "S"
stood for Sneaky Snake.
 
Just *WHY* did her teacher call to tell you that Angela knew all
the letters except for the letter S?

We called broccoli hulk trees to get our son to try it. He liked it and
it remains on of his favourite vegetables.

Yes and one back rib slab, 3 leg quarters and 6 drummers would not be
considered a BUTTload of meat for a BBQ. I would not light my pit for
such a small cook.

when i make a stew such as the above, i'll saute' onions, garlic, peppers etc. then i'll add the spice(s), but cook them over low heat. frying paprika too much/too high heat will make it bitter. i'll cook it over low heat for a few minutes.
i do it because i've been told to do it that way. i don't know if it makes much difference whether i lightly saute' it, or just dump it in once the liquid is in there. gently frying it is supposed to bring out the oils, more flavour?

I wait fer the "liquid". Along with turmeric, paprika is not one of my
favorite spices.
 
> gently frying it is supposed to bring out the oils....
 
Some herbs/spices benefit from frying ....dry! Not sure who is correct,
here (some advocate dry, others in oil), but if they are fried in
"oils", it is to flavor the "oils", which I consider the proper way.
 
> more flavour?
 
I'll buy that! ;)

I know that toasting certain spices/herbs brings out more flavor. Cumin
is an example as well as powder from chilies. That said we don't bother.
Keep it simple and easy. Keep your seasonings fresh and just dump 'em in.

Ya gotta laugh here though. So much bickering about how to cook
anything. I happen to love them in certain dishes cooked, you
like them raw. No problem, really.
 
Arguing though does make for interesting arguing and bickering.
:) I do suspect this is why this NG keeps on going while so many
have died off.
 
Before coming to RFC, I was in a "polite" cooking ng
(alt.cooking.chat). It died off years ago.

Always remember if it cold outside, the heat of the grill will keep you warm, and if you're grilling steaks or burgers, it's not like you're going to be out there for hours at a time anyways.
 
Agree with you. I often grilled on back balcony when very cold
but rarely on very hot summer evenings. Mild or cold evenings
were my grilling times.

I had a covered swing on the patio at my apartment in TN. The shade
cover was made of heavy canvas. The squirrels tore it up but good!

their waggle dance is interesting. bees that have found flowers tell the other bees where those flowers are by doing a dance.
