Does that car have any side mirrors at all?

Nope, can’t tolerate lactose much (lactose is in milk, cheese, butter). Still dicey using the enzyme tablets. Some people with lactose issues can tolerate a bit of lactose, some can’t.

No cheese in the recipe we have. Lots of variations out there.

The closest to secret family recipe is Tater Tot Hot Dish. Pound of ground beef, cream of mushroom soup, rice, Tater Tots and optional additional mushrooms. Mix cooked rice with cooked ground beef, put in casserole, top with cream of mushroom soup. Then crown the top with as many Tater Tots as you dare and bake. That…

Good for McDonalds, still not eating there. I can’t find much I can eat there with my food allergies.

The average bottle is opened within 6 hours? I am not doing this right... Of course, I have not convinced the wife to toss the bottles left from the Carter administration downstairs. They were not good wines to begin with, and the best I could hope for is vinegar. The newer stuff is fine, but a couple are probably a…

Bring good Scotch. Balvinie for people that have not tried Scotch before, very smooth and vanilla flavors. Or a bottle of good ruby Port. Maybe a bottle of Prosecco wine if you are tired of Chardonnay...

I go to my regular garage for oil changes. It is not rock bottom pricing, but I haven’t had my drain plug stripped yet. (Yes, I replaced an oil pan after a quick change place screwed it up). And if I need something else done, well, they can do that too.

You can do a terrine with low cost ingredients, and don’t have to use a sous-vede method. So it is not a cost issue. The fact most people don’t cook, and don’t use techniques like this probably what the reaction is about. To each their own, I don’t want to eat at McDonald’s.

Townsend channel rocks! He’s probably the least produced feel of the cooking shows. Probably due to his emphasis on the historical aspects of everything. If the recipe turns out good, that is just a bonus.

Ouch, have you found any alternatives? Not my issue, I can do lactose free milk. Have you tried coconut milk, or supplementing almond milk with another fat or a bit of geletin?

Chicken fat or schmaltz is what you bring to the party. Basically a chicken fat version of a demi-glace. It is a type of emulsion, oil and water, held together by thickening agents. You can up your sauce game by adding gelatin too. Serious eats has a good set of techniques in the article below.

I never did work restaurants for tips, but I did some pizza delivery. Cash is King, but I tip on my credit card most times, since I don’t normally carry much cash any more. Oh, one more nice move if paying cash, is to put the top out early, when the waitstaff is making last rounds. That way they know the tip is there,…

Sounds good, but that means planning two days ahead to completely defrost the chicken. Probably a summer dish when the family has more time to do things slightly fancy. Have you ever tried butterflying a thick cut and then pounding it flat? You can get some nice spiral action going on the stuffing, and make pinwheels…

Detroit’s version of actually rusted:

Why not give the methods recommended for cleaning a sponge?

He high tailed it out of there, but not fast enough and got pinched. Hopefully, he can butter up the judge and swim out of this mess.

Nope. I see them making bullet trains to travel the globe. Less magic metal needed, serves more people. Elevated monorail style optional.

You have been spending to much time with Torchinsky. The Cappuccino and this in the same day? Next your going to go on about the Honda Beat. I am not complaining, I like Kei cars. Since they can’t have much horsepower, so much more was / is put into styling, and making them pleasing to the eye.
