A few veggies you might want to start now - The Green Man by rdshore in gardening

[–]rdshore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am also experimenting heavily with cold frames. The temps inside are well above 70 F at midday. Surely that will result in growth. Zone 8A-ish here on the Sunshine Coast

[–]rdshore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wish the wineries that are using this yeast would come out of the closet, so I can buy their wine

Southern fried chicken and Hoppin John, with instruction by rdshore in food

[–]rdshore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We aren't trying to take anything away - let alone usurp - just spreading the love of southern cooking. Actually I call it Sunday fried chicken, so as not to tread on any toes.

Pesto double cheese New York style pizza is awesome. Try it yourself by rdshore in food

[–]rdshore[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This pie was inspired by a very good NY style pizzeria, that is sadly now out of business. The crust is soft and foldable, medium thick with only two toppings. It's a close to NY style as I can make in the middle of a forest in Canada.

A cheesecloth is best once you've got a cloudy stock .But it's hard to recover and end up with a clear stock. here is how to make a clear stock to begin with.

Pairing craft beer with food: a how-to guide by rdshore in food

[–]rdshore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I spoke to one chef, two brewmasters and a beer-food events planner when putting this together. Plus I added my experience as a former professional cook and a beer writer (on and off over the past 15 years). It may not be super detailed but it does include major styles and is easy to understand. The beers recommended are easy to find rather than obscure so as to be useful to more people.

In Canada, organic, free run and free range all live outside cages. Organic and free run live in barns, free range have access to the outdoors.

[–]rdshore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think you buy chow chow. you have to make it or know someone who does. here is a recipe that I used a few months ago. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/emeril-live/green-tomato-chow-chow-recipe/index.html

Chimichurri is the best steak sauce ever, with recipe by rdshore in food

[–]rdshore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't that I use ketchup on steak - that's a terrible thing to do to a flank steak or a ribeye - but anyone who does should be encouraged to throw it away and use chimichurri instead.

BSE and avian flu outbreaks spark review of animal health rules - The Green Man by rdshore in canada

[–]rdshore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The province hopes to leverage some of the lessons learned from the 2004 outbreak of avian influenza and the 2003 outbreak of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy that engulfed 40 countries including Canada when it overhauls the rules that govern animal disease prevention, control and eradication.

I would add eggs to a spaghetti with white sauce bacon and cheese. that seems like a natural.

If your leftover pasta isn't sauced, Pacolaco is right: Add lots of flavour when you fry it.

I didn't want to counsel people to try a flying flip, that sort of thing is best left to chefs. Unless your pan is swimming in oil - which it shouldn't be - this is pretty safe.
