Hi all, Our family is interested in trying a meal or two from the Native American diet, as an educational experience. There are a couple of problems with the practical side of things: 1. First, we can use *familiar* native American foods, like corn, beans, pumpkin, tomato, blueberries, honey, salmon, strawberries, etc. But I'm told that the native...

Egad! I was just perusing a booklet put out by Knox in 1929, and I was envisioning some sort of effervescent product. Suddenly, I started thinking that the "Sparkling" referred to the appearance of the granulated gelatin(e) and/or to its purity. I did a search and saw an ad that said one could use this in place of other gelatin(e)s. I guess that...

I collect cookbooks and recipe booklets, and this was my acquisition of the day. I thought it was kind-of interesting and decided you might like a few observations--and one recipe. There is a recipe for French Toast. I have seen that called "French" and "German" and also, IIRC, milk toast (although that can also be something else). I have seen speculation...

i just watched man of la mancha. Captain Kirk plays his brother. mk5000 "The reflex has no bearing on the question of whether there is a fixed limit to heart rate increase. I don't think anyone knows what the physiological basis is for that limit, but the data I mention below pretty much prove that it is there."--stephen diamond

Hello, I am testing the waters here. I am a painter and a food lover. I grow some of my own vegetables and paint them and then eat them. I paint small paintings of fruits and vegetables mostly and sell them on Ebay. You can see them at my blogspot at: * w w w .lwarnerconstantino.blogspot . com / Linda

Does anyone have a recipe that closely approximates the famous Fuller's Walnut Cake? Also, descriptions of the texture and composition and flavour would be very much appreciated. Linux Rocks

It's artichoke season in Bodrum. Their wild cousins, cardoons ("kenger" in Turkish), flourished about a month or so ago but now their cultivated kin are coming up strong and this year we've got a good crop indeed. I just boil them and to eat, pick off and strip off leaves the one by one, dipping them in a sauce made from: mayonnaise (real) anchovies garlic capers black...

Steve just posted a gut wrenching recipe for turkey set in lime jello. It reminded me of a series of posts some years ago about hypothetical but perturbing recipes made from perfectly ordinary ingredients. I think the winner was chunky strawberry ice cream made from human breast milk. In my local Asian food store candied anchovies have appeared in...

Recipe for a Salad To make this condiment, your poet begs The pounded yellow of two hard-boiled eggs; Two boiled potatoes, passed through kitchen-sieve, Smoothness and softness to the salad give; Let onion atoms lurk within the bowl, And, half-suspected, animate the whole. Of mordant mustard add a single spoon, Distrust the condiment...
