Spent lots of time and money to make a large pan of potatoes augratin only to have them come out looking very unpleasant. All ingredients were fresh and the milk was at room temperature before adding it. Is there any thing I can add to help uncurdle the milk to try to save the dish?

I just got a George Foreman, indoor-outdoor electrical grill. I was wondering what are some of your favorite recipes you use to cook on yours.

I had a ton of turkey and cornbread dressing left over. I have froze a large portion of just about everything for later in the year. I was told that cornbread dressing does not freeze well because of the hard boiled eggs in it. Is this true? Should I just throw it out?

Everyday I enjoy great tasting refreshing water from our home cooler. A question came to mind whilst standing in my kitchen going for a second drink...'Who invented this thing?'

I've checked Wikipedia and Google to no avail. Please help & star :)

I have a low tolerance to alcohol. A few months ago I could get very buzzed off of 3 lite beers. I like to drink lots of fluids and I drink them fast whether it's water, soda or juice. I tend to do the same with beer. So now my tolerance is up to higher than I feel comfortable to maybe 6 lite beers to get pretty buzed or a little drunk.

So what are your suggestions to still drink beer and getting buzzed slower? I am already drinking lite beer. Is there something that mixes well with beer? Is there a mixed beer drink I could order at a bar?

There is a little wine and cheese shop by my house. I'd have about 20 guests. We would have a few wines to choose from and a gourmet cheese platter to compliment the wines. I'd also bring in appetizers from another restaurant.

While most of my friends are wine drinkers, I don't want anyone to get bored. I also don't know if there's enough room, even though they insist there is.

Opinions, please!

Filet Mignon is a fairly large piece of super small portioned meat. I was grilling for Xmas Eve and I had no idea how to properly cook it. I like my MEAT like my Mink, I like it RARE! Some people dont like the mooing that gives off when cut, but how do I cook it? How long do I need to wait without eating ecoli for dinner? When should i remove it from the grill?

I can go out drinking all night, get drunk and go to bed semi sober and still throw up in the morning. How can I prevent throwing up in the morning like clockwork? Do not say don't drink so much, because even when I don't get drunk I still end up throwing up in the morning. Does anyone else have this problem?

I am a vegetarian. It isn't because I fight for animal rights, but I just don't like the taste of meat and it nauseates me. I will eat meat occasionally, but my parents don't seem to understand that I detest meat, especially red meat! I need a way to be creative with food I have around my house so I don't go hungry all the time. Any ideas?

I had a debate with my brother on this. Which has more digestible protein, a pound of egg? or a pound of hemp seed? I looked for a broken down chart given me percentage or some other measurement of this and cannot find one. I heard once that hemp seed has more digestible protein than any other natural source.

I am looking for a new pizza dough recipe - something that isn't the traditional:

Yeast & water
Flour
salt
sugar
oil

I make pizza every month or two, my family prefers homemade to chain pizza or even local restaurant pizzas. While the old standard is a good recipe, I'd like to try something different. Seems that every single pizza dough recipe I get tastes the same, no matter how you switch around or alter the amounts of the main ingredients.

Any ideas? Your favorites? Tried and true recipes? Thanks!

I want to cook french fries like the big boy restaurants do. Not like Mc D's and B.K. I'm really trying to get a crisp and non greasy french fry. Does the type of potato matter? Should I buy a deep fryer?
