Cooking & Recipes - February 2007

I am so hungry right now. All I have is junk food. Next time I go to the grocery store, I'm going to have to grab some things I can make in my dorm. The only cooking appliances I can have are a microwave and an electric tea kettle. It kinda sucks. What are your ideas?

I am uncertain about the wisdom of an instruction in Mr. Richard Grausman's book "At Home With the French Classics." In his recipe for Roast Stuffed Chicken with Truffles, he suggests that the chicken may be truffled one to two days in advance and then refrigerated. If this is done, he instructs, the chicken must then be brought to room temperature before proceeding with the stuffing and roasting.

Is there any danger in leaving a 5-pound chicken sitting out long enough to reach room temperature? I assume Mr. Grausman has used this method without ill effects, but it just seemed a little, well, icky to me. Any thoughts?

I always do all the cooking in one pot ie:browning the pork, onions , garlic. Then sometimes I add mushrooms, and shredded carrots. after that spices, and water til its boiling. Finally the rice, but by the time I get to the rice I feel like I'm adding it to stew. My rice is either undercooked or mushy. I kind of want to do all the cooking in one pot for flavor( it does taste good). I'm just having a problem with the way the rice comes out.

I have recipes for 1lb loafs and don't need 1 1/2 lb loafs (I live alone). I figure it's the bake cycle that needs to be shortened (maybe?). Does anyone have any experience with this?

My dough is ready to bake, and I have also added the chocolate chips.However, after baking 2 trays I realised that the mixture requires more sugar. Can I still add more white sugar in at this point?

I know you can't use metal on teflon, but anodized aluminum is a surface treatment and not a coating. I have been trying to find the answer to this for some time, and there seem to be a lot of misconceptions about the whole subject; mainly that most people do not know the difference between teflon and anodized aluminum.
