I make mine. You buy a bag of mozzarella string cheese a few bags of croutons, Italian herb is my pick. Crush the croutons and make em real fine now make a batter out of flour you can now either cut the cheese sticks in half or leave em whole... depending on how many people you gonna feed. Its just for 3 people here so I leave em whole... ok take cheese stick and dip in batter and roll in crouton powder drop in deep fryer until golden (sorry that recipe format prolly sucks, I was never good at telling others my recipes lol) _______________________ |

Quoting: Dr. Acula I make mine. You buy a bag of mozzarella string cheese a few bags of croutons, Italian herb is my pick.

Its just for 3 people here so I leave em whole... ok take cheese stick and dip in batter and roll in crouton powder drop in deep fryer until golden (sorry that recipe format prolly sucks, I was never good at telling others my recipes lol) I make this too except I always cut them in half. Its just easier for me to manage. You can fry them in a small amount of oil on the stove top as well. Sometimes I use wonton wrappers instead of crumb breading. Buffalo wings is one of our favorites though we don't have them often. Buy wings, separate the drumettes and the wing tips. You can save wing tips for making broth later on. lay them out on a foil lined pan, brush them with olive oil and dust with sea salt, pepper and garlic. Bake at 450 until they're a nice golden brown (takes about 20-30 min). Brush with wing sauce and bake again for about 5 minutes. Usually residual heat form the first baking cycle is enough and you can turn off the oven. Salsa- Grab a cookie sheet and cut 4-5 tomatoes in half, lay on the cookie sheet. Peel and cut an onion in half and put that on the cookie sheet. Cut the stem and take the seeds (or leave them if you like a bit of heat) from 2-3 jalapenos and lay them open side down on the sheet. Cut the root portion off of a head of garlic and lay that face down as well. Put the sheet in the oven at 350 until the skin of the tomatoes is splitting. Put the tomatoes in a blender/processor and blend, add onion, peeled garlic (roast it in its skin), and peppers. Add salt, pepper, cumin and small amounts of sugar. All seasoning is to taste.

Guenwyfar User ID: 21285652 United States 11/16/2012 01:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | At a party I went to recently someone brought what could only be described as mini rueben sandwiches. the mini loaf of rye bread. A crockpot full of corned beef and sauerkraut with some delicious cheese with may sauce. It was awesome, but I don't have the recipe. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 27646015 I have a recipe to bake the reuben ingredients into french bread dough. Kind of like trash bread. Haven't tried that one either. I can't imagine it wouldn't work though. Rueben sandwiches in any form rock. Guenwyfar "Karma is like a rubberband.. it can only stretch so far before it comes back and smacks you in the face."

Guenwyfar User ID: 21285652 United States 11/16/2012 01:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Raspberry chipotle sauce with cheese and crackers is excellent too. I prefer extra sharp cheddar with it but its good with pretty much anything. I make it and can it once a year.

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23501962 Mmmm St. Agur Blue. Oh... and booze. Everything but the sardines, I agree. Perhaps you have a tasty recipe on how to prepare sardines to be yummy? Sardines aren't for everyone :P. Salted and tinned are better after rinsing and soaking in vinegar. the fresh stuff grilled (along with mackerel) is just awesome. once again, not for everyone. |

On their own, they can be overpowering. But mixed in with other goodies, they work. If you can appreciate a good scotch, or stinky cheese, your palette should have no issues with good sardines. Or just plug your nose when tryin it :p |
