Currently ,wife is making traditional sweet dish,from like a more than 20 varieties of candid fruits and seeds :D
Just one hint,each ingredient has to be soaked in boiling water for at least 10 mins ,spearatelly :)
I'll put recipe when I get it from her.

Also photo update will come later these day or tomorrow.

Sounds labour intensive, usually those type of recipes come together to make a great result. Look forward to it!

Trick with tempura is super chilled soda water I'm told.

Try vodka. I saw it on the hairy bikers. They gave a really good reason for using it which at the time I went....Oh aye, nice one. And now I have totally forgotten the reason. Haha.

According to this recipe which uses both Vodka and Soda water - the Vodka "is critical to the texture of the batter".
I assume because it probably evaporates much quicker when cooking?

Fast food and lots of beer.
Been on a tuna noodle casserole kick the last week. Made a couple variations from the ol 1976 Betty Crocker's. Added raw asparagus, peas and omitted the butter a couple times. Think Ill start a thread with the recipe next time I give her a go. Want to try it with spinach noodles.

Well don't I feel special. I think Dia asked for my recipe, here is what I wrote:

Tuna casserole, adopted and changed based on a 1970's Betty Crocker cook book.

I'm going to guesstimate on most the ingredients since I rarley measure and don't like to waste/ have leftover shit.


1 package white button mushrooms finely chopped
1lb frozen peas, add most of the bag or however much seems appropriate
14-16 oz canned/ bagged tuna in water(drained)
half white onion, don't over do it if potent
1 bag of hand made medium-wide noodles, not sure the brands you have, usually around 3-4$ in noodle section
1 to half a diced jalapeno
1/2 cup of milk
1 tub sour cream(about 14oz)* edit
one 12oz plus package of BelGioiso Asiago or parmesean cheese, shredded

Combine after cooking noodles al dente, mix shit up, save some cheese for topping, season w/ salt and pepper when mixing up. Can top with little bit of bread crumbs, melted butter, paprika, cheese. Bake around 325F for 35-40 minutes or until looks ready.

Sometimes I add sliced asparagus if you like veggies

Hope im not forgetting anything

:peace:

You now owe me one meatloaf recipe.

my recipe is so old that it was passed down to me on paper, not even digitally. this is the first time it will be digitized.

*1 package egg noodles (wide)
*1 can tuna (or two)
*2 can cream of celery or mushroom soup
*3/4 can milk
*potato chips

cook noodles. mix tuna, milk, and soup. put in baking dish. bake for 25 minutes at 350.

***top with crumbled chips before baking***

(you can add cheese if you like)

I have a old tin box of recipe/note cards from my dad that appears to be every woman he's ever encountered recipes (he's 64) bunch of old simple recipes like that. Give mine a go. It is the bee's clitoris.

I don't see creamed corn in those last few meals, I find it adds a great tast sensation and livens up the simplist of meals into (IMO) a real tast sensation for the tast buds + a tin of corn is cheap and simple to blend up into a creamy ingrediant.
Have you tryed making your own pasta?, it's a bit time consuming but a dam sight better then baught pasta, especialy if you like your pasta aldente.
I unfortunatly cant eat it at presant after loosing most of my teeth in a car crash :(

Cauliflower is boiled but still a bit hard. Then I make a cheese sauce with melted butter on a low heat. Add flour until you get a roux (sp). Then add milk and stir until smooth. Then I add oude kaas (old cheese - 3year ripened). Pour that over the cauliflower and then grate a softer cheese over the top and in the.oven for 15 minster or so 180c. (I use a Jong belegen- young matured cheese for the top).
