Do plum cakes and plum pudding (Christmas pudding) usually contain PLUMS, the kind of blue fruit which is called "prune" when dried? Or they contain only RAISINS, the special dried grapes which accidentally are also called "plums"??? Thaks and wishes.

1 - I am an Indian
2 - Veg recipes are preffered though easy, oven ready non veg may do the magic too.
3 - We dont have pressure cooker.
4 - Things like desi ghee are too expensive so we are used to use butter instead.
5 - have very limited number and choices of 'maslas'. Please strict to basics.
6 - Any tip for an indian living in japan are also welcome
7 - if you know any good link, that is also welcome
8 - I m open to IM through yahoo QnA, my mail id is utsav dot verma at gmail dot com (wrote like this to be saved from spam)

Thanks a lot

The main meal stuff is covered and I have the SWEET stuff I'm taking figured out. I just need ideas for snacks/appetizers other than the norm sausage balls, cheeseball, chex mix, cheese/crackers, etc. You get the idea. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Sitting here watching Rachel Ray....she's so down to earth and her cooking is something anyone can do. I find Martha to be boring and kinda snooty. Martha's recipes, IMO, tend to be too difficult and complicated. HOWEVER....I am interested in hearing what others think.

If I dilute the mixture, will the Jell-O still set and form into a mold?

In other words, would the Jell-o still set into a nice mold shape even if the water I use is not boiling?

I was recently watching FoodNetwork and a lady was on there explaining a "cake" that she bakes. The problem is I only caught the end of it. The only thing I got out of it was that you break peices of regular biscuits, dip them in melted butter, then dip them in a cinnamon and suger mixture and put it into a bundt pan. Does anyone know what this is called and how long does it need to bake and at what temp???? PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks!

Is there any place I can go to buy these cups? I checked Wal-Mart today, but they didn't have any. I don't have any kind of water-service, so I don't need them for that. I saw a really cute recipe on how to make little Christmas tree cakes with them, so I don't need a lot.

I'm dipping pretzels in white chocolate. I ran out of the dipping chocolate wafers, and I want to use white chocolate chips, but they're thicker than the dipping chocolate. What can I add to the chocolate chips to make them thinner and easier to dip with, but will still let the chocolate set properly?
