Will it something homecooked or will it be restaurant fare?
Perhaps enjoying a meal with neighbors or a family get together?

I'm heading into the kitchen in a few minutes and it's going
to be lightly browned thin pork chops and rice baked in the
oven. The 'recipe' doesn't call for it, but I'm going to
toss in some sliced mushrooms and some diced onions as well
to make friends with the rice and chops. Green beans will
be the side dish.

Some penne pasta, with olio, parmesan cheeze, and mixed with diced
tomaters, shrooms, sliced black olives, and peas... very simple...

Sophia Loren is stopping by to share in this 'Festa Italiano'...!!!

Sounds good, BLT's here with homegrown tomatoes.

Boy was I in for a treat! The wifes blood sample was analyzed and the
doctors judged that she needs more iron. I've been telling her for a long
time that we must eat more steak! But since I'm not a doctor she ignored
me.

Happily the doctor said she needs more iron, so off we went to the steak
house! =D

I had an 8 oz 30 day aged rib eye with chimichurri. She, being female, had
a slightly smaller steak and a small side of caesar salad.

If we can keep this up, her iron levels will be off the charts in a few
weeks!

In the evening, we decided to watch Chefs Table: France, highly
recommended!

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6088326/

And before going out to dinner I also cooked my not very famous apple
crumble, but with spelt instead of wheat which my wife actually liked
better, so there I learned something.

In the evening I will relax, once she's gone to bed, with a cup (or two)
of Hojicha and probably finish season 3 of Babylon Berlin to keep brushing
up on my german (no subtitles or voice over, I take it in its raw german
format).

I do like it. It is a crime noir series, set in Berlin in the late 20s and
early 30s. Highly recommended if you would like to see some european crime
series to compare with american productions.

I think it is available in some dark corners of the net with subtitles
provided, so that shouldn't be a problem. When it comes to streaming
services though, I have no idea which service has babylon berlin.

definitely check it out!

Ahh! Breaking news.... this just came in, a friend of a colleague is
travelling to the US today and he _will_ buy me a MAGA hat! I'm very
much looking forward to spread the message on the streets of Stockholm
and Vilnius. I wonder how long it will take before the first aggressive

Among German writers I have always thought that Heinrich Boll deserved a
larger place in filmdom.

BTW, I am just watching an episode of the US series "Law & Order:
Criminal Intent", from 2006. one of my fave shows of that franchise...

In the opening scene, a bunch of wealthy people are at a lavish
Manhattan party...

One of the characters, an attorney, excitedly says:

"Oh, I am so excited, I am going to meet THE DONALD...!!!"

Lol...

The ep:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0629576/?ref_=ttep_ep11

"Storyline:

Detectives Goren and Eames encounter a gang of high-class lowlifes led
by Bernard, a slimy European who befriends, robs, and kills tourists..."

It's good. When wild carnivores make a kill, the entrails and especially
the liver is the very first organs they eat. Plenty of iron, and it
tastes better than medicine doctors give anemics.

Cue Master Bruce ...

What is interesting is that depending on which region you live in
supermarkets will tend to have decent pressure fried chicken livers as
well as gizzards.

If you're road tripping through the American south, skip the fast food
joints and find a Winn Dixie or Kroger.

Fried livers/gizzards with and RC Cola may well be a perfect finger
food for road trips.

And it's a shame a chicken only has one heart, because those are sublime!

Thank you for the tip! I'd say there's a 50/50 chance that my wife will
force me on a long trip next year, and the US is high on her list. I think
we'll try to go for a 3 or 4 week trip in order to make full use of the
time we are there in order for her to see as much as possible.

My own body has traveled too much in one lifetime, so my own dream is to
not have to travel again. I'm very happy and content to be just where I
am.

On the other hand, if we go, that will give me the opportunity to visit
some acquaintances I haven't seen for at least a decade if not two.

Not knowing just where you have been, here's some spots worth seeing.

New Orleans, long enough to catch the difference between Cajun and
Creole. I'm more towards the Cajun side. Marde graz if possible!

San Antonio TX Riverwalk. It's just fun! See the Alamo just to say
you've been there.

Luray Caverns, Along the Blue Ridge. Quite a nice sight.

Formerly Frogmore, now ST Helena, Gullah land (see Jill?)

Into water rafting? Go to the Grand Canyon and take a river rafting
tour. Alternative, Houseboat tour up the Mississippi!

NY City, get lost on the subway but make stops and just wander about.
Have NY Pizza. Check out the Deli's.

Waikiki, HI if it appeals. Check out the Ala Moana food vendors then
hop on a fishing boat for the day. (See David)

Thank you for the tip! I'd say there's a 50/50 chance that my wife
will force me on a long trip next year, and the US is high on her
list. I think we'll try to go for a 3 or 4 week trip in order to make
full use of the time we are there in order for her to see as much as
possible.
Not knowing just where you have been, here's some spots worth seeing.
Into water rafting? Go to the Grand Canyon and take a river rafting
tour. Alternative, Houseboat tour up the Mississippi!
River rafting in the Grand Canyon requires a minimum of one (1)
year reservation. Riding the mules down into the canyon have 15
month minimum reservation. Houseboat tour, aka riverboat, will
set you back around $1,000 U.S. dollars per person.

15 months for a mule?! I can just buy my own mule and sell it afterwards,

Since I mostly travelled for business, my visit to the US have mostly been
concentrated to the east coast where my home office always was. When I
studied and worked for a year, I lived in Chicago, and I really liked that
city. I have heard though, that in the many decades since I lived there it
has become a dangerous city with a drug problem, which is very sad.

New Orleans, long enough to catch the difference between Cajun and

Never been, is on the list for myself.

San Antonio TX Riverwalk. It's just fun! See the Alamo just to say
you've been there.
I would like to eat a good steak in Texas! Ideally I would also like to
walk around in public with a revolver and a cowboy hat and enjoy the fact
that I would fit in, instead of being looked at like a freak if I did that
in europe (and of course I would get arrested as well;)).

Luray Caverns, Along the Blue Ridge. Quite a nice sight.
Formerly Frogmore, now ST Helena, Gullah land (see Jill?)
Wouldn't that be something? I could hand deliver one of my posts! Or even
better, send a post online, and then follow up with offering to buy her
lunch!

NY City, get lost on the subway but make stops and just wander about.
Have NY Pizza. Check out the Deli's.
Been many, many times. My wife enjoyed sex in the city, so I am 100%
certain this will be on the list.

Waikiki, HI if it appeals. Check out the Ala Moana food vendors then
hop on a fishing boat for the day. (See David)
Probably too far, but you never know. On my personal list is more of the
west coast. One of my customers has an office there, so it would be nice
to drop in and say hello.

Dear God, not during Mardi Gras. For one thing, that's February,

another, I don't see traveling thousands of miles to watch other
people vomiting in the streets.

I'd suggest the Jazz Festival, which is late April or early May.

I don't think I ever tried anything of that sorts except chicken liver.
I do like chicken liver though, but I don't think the wife likes it.
https://www.thewickednoodle.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Fried-Chicken-Livers-recipe-4-of-6-735x490.jpg.webp
Most people don't have a pressure fryer but I suppose that could be the
next big thing - if you could come up with a machine that retailed at
around $200. It would be quite exciting to own such a bomb.

My friend in college had a pressure fryer but that's because her family
had a broasted chicken restaurant. The broasted chicken business must
have been good; she had a 356 Porsche.

No doubt, a bit like Instant Pot then?

https://recipes.net/articles/how-to-fry-in-instant-pot/

Set Up the Instant Pot
Place the stainless steel inner pot into your Instant Pot and add a
sufficient amount of cooking oil. The amount of oil will depend on the
quantity of ingredients you are frying, but be careful not to use too
much, as the pressure cooking process requires less oil compared to
traditional frying methods.

4. Use the Saute Function
Set your Instant Pot to the saute function and adjust the heat to the
highest setting. Allow the oil to heat up for a few minutes until it
becomes hot. You can test the temperature by adding a small piece of
ingredient, and if it sizzles and floats to the top, the oil is ready
for frying.

5. Fry in Batches
It’s important not to overcrowd the Instant Pot when frying. This can
lead to uneven cooking and less crispy results. Instead, fry in smaller
batches, giving each piece of food enough space to cook evenly. This
ensures that every bite will be perfectly fried and crunchy.

6. Cook Under Pressure
Once your ingredients are in the Instant Pot, carefully close the lid
and set the pressure release valve to the sealing position. Select the
pressure cook function and adjust the cooking time according to the
recipe or the type of food you’re frying. The pressure cooking process
will infuse the flavors and create a crispy exterior.

7. Quick Release or Natural Release
After the cooking time is complete, you have two options for releasing
the pressure: quick release or natural release. Quick release involves
manually venting the pressure using the valve, while natural release
allows the pressure to come down naturally over time. Choose the method
that best suits your recipe and food preferences.

8. Finish with a Crispy Touch
To achieve that irresistible crunch, you can give your Instant Pot fried
food a quick finishing touch. Transfer the cooked ingredients to a
baking sheet and place them under the broiler for a few minutes. This
additional step will elevate the texture and ensure a satisfying fry.

I'd probably buy an espresso machine before a pressure fryer. I mean,
I'd use the espresso machine every day. It has come to my attention that
the KFC pressure fryer operates at 29.7 lb of pressure. That's nearly
twice the working pressure of a pressure cooker. What a bomb!

I'm heading into the kitchen in a few minutes and it's going
to be lightly browned thin pork chops and rice baked in the
oven. The 'recipe' doesn't call for it, but I'm going to
toss in some sliced mushrooms and some diced onions as well
to make friends with the rice and chops. Green beans will
be the side dish.
Boy was I in for a treat! The wifes blood sample was analyzed and the
doctors judged that she needs more iron. I've been telling her for a
long time that we must eat more steak! But since I'm not a doctor she
ignored me.
Happily the doctor said she needs more iron, so off we went to the
steak house! =D
She can do just as well with dark leafy greens and no cholestrol issues.
Post by D
I had an 8 oz 30 day aged rib eye with chimichurri. She, being
female, had a slightly smaller steak and a small side of caesar salad.
If we can keep this up, her iron levels will be off the charts in a
few weeks!
And add cholestrol meds...
Post by D
In the evening, we decided to watch Chefs Table: France, highly
recommended!
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6088326/
And before going out to dinner I also cooked my not very famous apple
crumble, but with spelt instead of wheat which my wife actually liked
better, so there I learned something.
The nutty flavor complements the dish.

Actually that is incorrect! A lot of research has happened within
cholesterol the last couple of decades, and it is not as simple as
cholesterol = bad. Look at Jordan Peterson and the outstanding success of
his carnivore diet.

I am a hueg meat eater and my blood values are excellent. So we'll trust
her doctor for the moment, even though the knowledge here on rfc is vast.

If that doesn't work out, we will come back here for new medical advice.

Have you found Einkorn yet? It has a different sort of texture that
may appeal there. My local store has it now. Kind of pricey, but it's
to be expected.

Last I checked, most of our Einkorn comes from Canada. It's been a bit

I'm afraid not. I did have a look last weekend in our regular super
market, and the selection was very limited. I think I have to branch out
to some gourmet or special store that focuses on baking. Maybe they might
have it.

The "scrambled egg" I described in another thread. It is in the oven
right now, surrounded by cut up potato. Easily mistaken for meatloaf but
the egg was scrambled and mixed in. Soon I will make a salad.

A pan fried catfish fillet. Egg wash, seasoned flour, masa harina with
cayenne pepper, cooked on the stovetop in a little corn oil. I haven't
decided on the vegetable side yet.

I bought a bag of Hambeens brand 15-bean soup mix and some ham. I'll be
making a pot of bean soup tomorrow. :) I'll bake a skillet of cornbread
to go with it.

Unless you're planning on sharing that pot of beans with your
co-workers, I strongly suggest you only cook half that bag!
Or if you like eating beans for days to come, ignore my
suggestion. 😊

Will it something homecooked or will it be restaurant fare?
Perhaps enjoying a meal with neighbors or a family get together?
A pan fried catfish fillet.
I bought a bag of Hambeens brand 15-bean soup mix and some ham.  I'll be
making a pot of bean soup tomorrow. :)  I'll bake a skillet of cornbread
to go with it.

Beans are something I've never frozen, so I don't know if
that's a good idea or not. Maybe someone else here has
and can tell you if frozen cooked beans fare well with
that way of preserving them for another meal.

Don't recall ever seeing one. Never tried freezing them but, I found this:
Yes, you can freeze beans, including cooked beans, canned beans, and
baked beans:
Dried beans: Rinse and drain the beans, then place them in a freezer bag
or container and cover with water. Label the bag or container and freeze
for up to six months.
Cooked beans: Cool the beans, pat dry, and measure out 1–2 cups per
freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to six months. To maintain their
shape, thaw slowly in the fridge overnight, at room temperature for
several hours, or in a pan of warm water for about an hour.
Canned beans: Transfer the beans to a plastic or glass container and
freeze.
Baked beans: Freezing baked beans can help maintain their flavor and
freshness.

yes, we've frozen ham and bean soup for as long as i
can recall making it since we usually make large pots of
it and want to put some in the freezer for eating later.

the only thing i don't like is if you put potato
chunks in it because those have an odd texture to
them until they are really reheated a lot. i prefer
to not heat up soups too much so i don't like the
odd texture, but i'll eat them anyways since they
taste ok.

if you are freezing soups in jars make sure to
leave enough headspace so there is room for the
expanding soup.

Why on earth would anyone freeze dried beans in water?

If you just store dried beans DRY in a closed container
they'll last far longer than six months.

His article (since snipped to solve the snipping police) addressed
freezinf dried beans to make them last longer and several other things,
even an oddball one od uncooked dried beans and water to measure then
frozen before cooking. The uncooked with water added made no sense to
me.

So you can just defrost them and use them, rather than waiting
while they cook.

That's why I use canned beans. But dried lentils, since they cook
relatively quickly.

I would not take a chance with glass in the freezer. There is way too
much risk. Plastic is so much easier and there is less danger if it fails.

Consider leftover peanut butter jars (plastic but nice widemouth).
Wrkable to us. I don't like the texture of frozen cooked beans but it
could be due to crockpotting them or the type of beans used.

Songbird is (somewhat understandably) anti-plastic. I will never use
glass storage containers in the freezer. The possibility of broken
glass in my food outweighs the "fear" of re-usable plastic storage
containers.

For people who do not reliably have time to cook beans or do not
use a lot of beans at once, dried beans are virtually useless.

I use canned beans. Even a 15-ounce can of beans is two or
three meals for me.

You're missing the point, Janet. We're not talking about storing dried
beans. We're talking about *cooked* bean soup. songbird recommends
freezing cooked food in glass containers in a freezer. NO NO NO! Glass
breakage due to over-filling possibly causing the glass jars to burst.
I'm pretty darn sure we all know how to store uncooked dried beans.

I would not limit my worries to the glass jars breaking when the
contents freeze and expand. I would be concerned about things sliding
into the jars and breaking them or picking them up and having them slip
out my hands when a thin film of frost melts. The risk of breakage is
simply too high, and then there is the hazard of cleaning up broken bits
of glass in a freezer. IMO there is simply far too much risk to even
consider using glass in a freezer.

that way of preserving them for another meal.
Are there frozen TV dinners with beans?
Tex-mex frozen TV dinners contain refried beans. But that's not what
I'm talking about.
Don't recall ever seeing one.  Never tried freezing them but, I
found this: Yes, you can freeze beans, including cooked beans,
I didn't ask about baked beans, either, Ed. I'm talking about bean
soup. So I'll look it up myself.

Yes, you can freeze bean soup.

The beans suffer a good bit once cooked if frozen. If you don't mind
them basically 'blened' for the second round, it's ok.

Unless you're planning on sharing that pot of beans with your
co-workers, I strongly suggest you only cook half that bag!
Or if you like eating beans for days to come, ignore my
suggestion.  😊
I was planning on freezing some of the soup. Bad idea?

Beans are something I've never frozen, so I don't know if
that's a good idea or not. Maybe someone else here has

Not allowed in the Dataw kingdom.

I bought a bag of Hambeens brand 15-bean soup mix and some ham.Â
I'll be
making a pot of bean soup tomorrow. :)  I'll bake a skillet of
cornbread
to go with it.

I've frozen them many times. It works just fine, but don't expect them
to look exactly the same as before. Sometimes the skins can crack, but
makes no difference for something like her Majesty's bean soup.

Will it something homecooked or will it be restaurant fare?
Perhaps enjoying a meal with neighbors or a family get together?
A pan fried catfish fillet.

Hell no. Fine idea and what I just told Joan you were capable of doing!

Enjoy the beans and cornbread!

Might be wrong, but I think her Majesty has a freezer and often uses it.

Agreed, even with 2 who like beans, 1/2 a bag works for us. The rest
of the ham freezes well.

I'm heading into the kitchen in a few minutes and it's going
to be lightly browned thin pork chops and rice baked in the
oven. The 'recipe' doesn't call for it, but I'm going to
toss in some sliced mushrooms and some diced onions as well
to make friends with the rice and chops. Green beans will
be the side dish.
Beef stew followed by 'Nilla wafers, milk, chocolate coated pretzels,
peanut butter M&Ms, shelled pistachios and Creamsicles.
These will be preceded with Budweiser, and I may skip the beef stew.

I don't trust you, man. I'm waiting for brother Hiram to weigh in on this.

Amen.

I'm eating leftover pizza right now. Nothing special, but pretty good.
