I made some pralines two days ago, wrapped them in cellophane and placed them in a tight tin. Will that be suffiicent to keep them until my folks can sample them around christmas? Would it be better to freeze them?

My boyfriend and I have made a couple different attempts at pasta with cream sauce, once with a white wine reduction and one carbonera sauce. We followed instructions, but both times, the cream curdled. (in the case of the cabonera, teh egg sauce curdled). What are we doing wrong? Is there too much grease and oil? I thought that was PART of the reduction/ pan sauce part? We cooked down the onions and white wine first, then added the cream before adding the pasta?

Overall, considering all the cuts you can get off it, and recipes you can make, which animal tastes the best overall?

The cow, the pig, the sheep or the chicken?

or on Xmas day,is it best to have something during the day to eat,or not?
they say if you do eat,it starts the metabolism,then you will be hungry later.

if you dont eat all day,you will be starving,and ready for the meal,but as soon as you eat anything you will be full,as the stomache has shrunk?

recently I went out for a curry,had eaten nothing all day,when I did eat I was full quickly.

From a Pink Floyd song. Can this be interpreted as on overbearing parent speaking to a vegetarian or vegan child of there's or do you think it's just a parent saying they can't have a treat until they finish their supper?

I'd heard it's now safe to pour hot liquid in a styrafoam cup, as they are no longer manufactured with CFC's, but what about heating in a microwave ?

No web sites, please. Just your own if you have it, a recipe for white clams sauce. Earlier I asked for red and a friend pointed out that white is good, too, so, please, if you have one may I have it, too? Thanks.

I was hoping some drink connoisseurs out there could help. The other day at a oriental restaurant, I had what is called a quail egg shot. It was a shot of quail egg, Saki and a splash of hot sauce or something. Anyways, it was quite pleasant and it got me wondering, what other EXTREME alcoholic ethnic/regional type mixes are out there? I can't seem to find any info. on it but I know there has to be some crazy drinks or shots out there like the quail egg shot, something alot more daring than the Singapore Sling. Hopefully some of you can give some suggestions, thanks!

Bought one to chop up and put in a stir fry as shown to me by a neighbour and it seemed to work, but I still have some left. Peeled the potato, chopped it into bits, now what do I do with it? Fry? Boil? Its a whole new game to me!

Hello world. I am trying to decide, what would be a good
place to eat out tonight. I mean I really love Chinese
food, especially the chicken wings, and fries. Tasty stuff.
And it is fun to get those fortune cookies as well.... But
eating Southern cooked soul food, is just incredible.
Because it is what, it says it is. And with gravy, chicken,
biscuit, greens, sweet potato, it is hard to decide.
Some would say, they are both equally as good. But if
you may, please help me decide. Should I go for the
Oriental dish, or the ol fashioned crown jewel, of American
food ? Best answer wins. ~~~

When I went back home, there were these burritos I got in Texas, that had meat and potatoes in them with some spicyness to them, sold by a mexican woman.

Does anyone know how to make these?

Hello, I have been cooking Christmas Eve Dinner for my Family for the past 4 years, I started to do so after my MOM lost her job (after 30 + Years). That year she was only going to do sandwiches due to lack of funds... Anyway That was the year I took over!! AT Mom's,Every Year was the same old Christmas Eve dinner, Ham, Mash Potatoes, corn...etc "Boring". So for the past years I have been introducing New...Yet Different foods to our Christmas Eve Dinner Table. Foods such as: A Seasoned Ribeye Roast, Asian Lamb Chops, Filet Beef, Wellington and various pasta dishes.... Anyway, I am trying to think of what I can make this year for the main coarse.. something different... but pleasing to all !! Gourmet Style!!
Something Flavorful and remembering!!
Anyone have any thoughts?
