Niccceee MadDog, a classic dish & amy we are missing your posts, I know the quality of seafood up in NorCal is much better then what I get here at the beach, on the ocean, in SoCal, fishermen & everything, bad fish! I am just saying? I really dig our little trips up to San Francisco, because the food is so much better then what Orange County has to offer. |

Hey MadDogMike, do you do the cooking for your family? or share the task with the wife? I do all the cooking in my household, but my wife likes to make baked goods now & then, otherwise I make all the meals. come to think of it! I do the house cleaning,sewing and gardening. |

My wife and I both enjoy cooking. On the days I work, I don't get home until 8pm - a little late to cook dinner. Most of the time it's just the two of us since my son is always at school or work (or hanging out with his friends) so we cook big and eat a lot of leftovers :) I did notice one thing; when she cooks, I often clean. But when I cook I have to clean the kitchen 'cuz I'm a messy cook. What's up with that!!! :lol: |

I do most of the cooking, while Sweetie B rules in the Let's Eat Out Dept. Fresh basil, thyme, oregano, Italian parsley, celery, carrot, garlic, white vermouth, salt & pepper simmered in olive oil as a base for tomato sauce. Add Pomi brand packaged chopped tomatoes plus tomato paste, bit of red wine, more chopped garlic, all simmering for 2 more hours. (tomatoes packed in metal cans have toxic problems I've learned) Add some sugar if it's too tart. Baked eggplant slices All of this disappears once it's layered up with mozzarella cheese, but I'll show ya that later anyhow. bumping the thread [ Edited by: amybean 2010-01-09 14:53 ] |

Looks great Amy. Does eggplant make everyone's tongue itch or am I allergic to it? |

MadDogMike, "salted and soaked the eggplant in water about 15-30 minutes prior to cooking as it draws out something from the eggplant which can cause the itchy mouth (the water will be brown after soaking)" Also breading & frying the eggplant seems to alleviate the effect for many people, but some people are just allergic to Eggplant. |

Breaded & fried still makes me itch, but I'll give the salting a shot. It's too bad 'cuz I like eggplant. |

Amybean do you clearify your own butter? Mike, when I Smoke pork loins or brisket, we eat that for days, when you mentioned ghee, I have been thinking of making some Indian food, Chicken Tiki Masala yum! I will post the recipe for Ghee below for those who want to make their own. Ingredients: Allow butter to melt and bring to a boil, stirring. You will notice that the oil will separate itself. |

I only use real butter when I cook, Julia Child is the Patron saint of Butter! I have only used it with French cooking methods i.e.most everything cooked in butter & Indian food. [ Edited by: Atomic Tiki Punk 2010-01-15 13:57 ] [ Edited by: Atomic Tiki Punk 2010-01-15 23:37 ] |

Sweetie B's been sick, so we had to cancel our little Sunday dinner party with old friends. I made the chicken and mushroom lasagna anyway... Yup- I made 2 medium instead of 1 xtra-large, and stuck it in the freezer. Fingers crossed it'll reconstitute. |
