Um, who is bored, aem? Is *your* kill file not working today?

BTW, whenever the mood takes you, you are welcome to come up with some
"ideas" for the surveys. i.e. put up, or shut up....

acceptable terminology for our "Unofficial website"?

As long as it remains unofficial, anything should fly.

That's the idea of using "quick bread" instead of a yeast bread recipe!
<G>

I've actually made my own biscuit dough (quick bread) and used that for
a pre-baked pizza crust.

If I am in a REAL hurry tho', there is a local pizzaria that will bake
me just a crust of the "real stuff" and I can go from there. ;-d

I just did a survey of sorts, asking people's favorite recipes from the
Frug. You probably didn't notice because it was about food.

Answers, so far, a

Linguini and Clam Sauce
.... some sort of a greek or italian salad
cranberry-orange relish
stuffed canneloni
beef roast in port with mushrooms
spinach quiche
sauerkraut
pot pie
biscuits, tomato soup, hummus, chinese dumplings...
And from me, his version of Chinese Poached Chicken. As I suspected
there would be when I asked the question, there's a nice variety in the
answers. -aem


brisket

chicken with leeks in cream

Which Frug cookbook did that come from? I have several but I don't recall
seeing ciopinno. It's been a few years since I flipped through them,
though. Was it in Immigrant Ancestors?

The Frug Lyrics

And I can do the frug
I can do the Robocop
I can do the Freddie
I cannot do the Smurf
And I can hate your girl
I can tell you that she's real pretty
I can take my clothes off
I cannot fall in love

And I can do the frug
I can do the Robocop
I can do the Freddie
I cannot do the Smurf

And I can watch TV
I can shuffle off to Buffalo
I can do a backbend
I will not call you back
And I can start a book
I can make some mac and cheese
I can sleep twelve hours
You'll never see my eyes

Chorus


And I can hate your girl
I can tell you that she's real pretty
I can take my clothes off
I cannot fall in love
You'll never see my eyes
I will not call you back
I cannot do the smurf
I cannot fall in love
I'll never fall in love
I cannot fall in love...

Chorus

Ooooo yes, this is a good one! Have used this method numerous times.
Highly recommended.

And I've also made the beef roast in port with mushrooms. Fab. I'm
beginning to think I've made more than half of the recipes in that
book!

I'm a little confused by the directions:

http://www.cdkitchen.com/recipes/rec...d_Chicken16393.
shtml

"Fill a 12 quart kettle almost full of water and bring it to a boil.
Place 1 whole chicken, about 3 pounds, in the boiling water. The water
will stop boiling in just a moment or so. Using wooden spoons so that
you do not tear the skin, remove the chicken from the water and place
it on a tray. Cover the pot and bring the water back to a boil. Put
the chicken back into the pot, cover and turn off the heat. Leave the
chicken in the pot and the pot on the burner, but you will need no
more heat. The water will be hot enough to cook the bird. After 1 hour
the chicken is done. Remove and cool and debone it. Some of the
poaching water can be used to cover the meat or use the meat for other
chicken dishes that calls for cooked chicken. "

Why do you take it out, reheat the water, and put it back in? Is
it because the cold chicken takes too much heat out of the water
the first time for it to cook properly in one hour? And what do
you do with the chicken when it's done? Eat it plain? Use it in
recipes? Both? I'll bet it's nice and tender...

But asking for recipes isn't the same as a survey.

Actually, it could be termed a survey, but with "open questions".
However, I have no intention of doing this type of survey on the RFC
site, because:

1. In this type of survey the results are only published at the end of
the survey.
2. Before they are published, somebody (me, in this case) has to
summarize/analyze the results and present them, otherwise it would be
"just another forum".
3. I have no intention of re-inventing the wheel (i.e. rec.food.cooking)

For the current "multiple choice" surveys on the site I would welcome
some questions and their possible answers. I am afraid that aem's
"survey" does not fit the bill in this case.

BTW, your "Bottles for olive oil" suggestion is the type of thing I am
looking for. Thank you.

I noticed something on the RFCers map. It coincides with the map of my
blog visitors. I'm beginning to think that the map more represents
connectivity than actual interest.
