Foodies BS Thread.

Pretty much. You can pretty much make them any flavor you want like sunflower seeds too. I just like to add some salt to make them salty, but not too salty. I used this recipe and I think it's perfect: http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/toasted_pumpkin_seeds/ Plus you can eat the shell too on pumpkin seeds. One of the most healthy snacks ever.

 

OK, Got a question. We got a glass top stove and we not supposed to use cast iron fry pans. How do U get away with it ? I'd like 2 but she'd start WWIII. Thanks. Curious George. BTW makes me hungry.

 

No photos but I just got done eating something amazing and had to share. If you like Thai, Indian, etc., this is for you.

I sautéed 2 bell peppers and 1/2 white onion in safflower oil with some crushed garlic for 10 or 15 minutes to get some color on them. Added 1/2 can of pineapple chunks. I had some smoked chicken left over from the weekend, so I took 2 thighs and a leg and chopped up the meat. I stirred in 2 tablespoons of curry paste, 2 kaffir lime leaves, about a cup of coconut milk and 3 tablespoons of sriracha (I like it hot).

Simmer until it's hot and all melded together, serve over rice and sprinkle on salt and fresh ground pepper. Amazing. Simple, sweet/hot, thick and creamy - the best curry dish I've had ever, and I made it. Just had to share.

 

I also had the same question but have been using cast iron pan and other cast iron pots for a while now without issues. Just put them down gently and don't drag them around across the glass - my pans and pots are pretty smooth on the bottom, but just to make sure I don't scratch the glass I leave them alone once I put them down.

 

They do emphasis a smooth flat bottom - not for her but best for pans on the glass top.

 

Good looking pic Pete. ^^^

 

Haha I know what you mean! When I moved a couple months ago I ate out quite a bit. Back in the habit of cooking more now though haha.

 

Dinner tonight
My wife and the kids were out at an event tonight, so I decided since they are having fun, at least I can have some fun too. Best dinner in a long time.(unfortunately just cell phone pics, nothing like Pete's photos )

 

I know Ive been slacking on pics for a long time!! Nice looking meal Ferdie! ^^^

 

Beautiful!

 

love mine. Best invention ever.


Did any of you watch master chef jr?? Those kids were AMAZING. The winner was 13 and the youngest was 8. They made stuff I've never even heard of but looked so yummy

 

Had a little help in the kitchen tonight and it turned out epic. My 5.5 year old daughter was the guest chef. We made fried porkchops with roasted potatoes. She was a great help and had fun doing it. I think she is going to take after both of us and be a great cook. She was so interested and wanted to learn about every detail involved in the cooking process. Enough about the rant but it was a great daddy/daughter night!!!! Oh yeah pics to follow...

 

Now bring me food

 

One of my go-to quick meals... the simple yet satisfying pizza bagel, extra garlic.
