Huzzah! Even though I use Google Groups, I managed to be
the first respondent.

Now, which hat? I think my husband would like me best in #11:
"I can hear you".

I'm pretty tolerant of units of measurement and odd ingredients.

Still trying to figure out what to do with the bottle of piripiri that
I put in DH's Christmas stocking.

Spring has sprung in your neck of the woods, methinks. How 'bout adding
some some piripiri sauce (or peri peri as it is known hereabouts) to
the marinade for some chicken on the grill? Delicious ; -)

I answered "never" to the first question. If it sounds
good I can easily covert the measurements.

I answered "look it up online" to the second.

Does "unfamiliar to you" mean you've heard of it and
have some idea what it is but have never seen it or
used it yourself or does it mean you don't know what
it is at all, even if you have heard the name.

To me the question seemed to imply that you don't know
what the ingredient is so, if you don't know what the
ingredient is how could you make an appropriate substitute?

Even with ingredients I've heard of but not used before
I often look them up to get a better idea of what they
are so I can figure out an appropriate substitute.

I see I'm with the current majority but I will mention that I can be
discouraged if a recipe contains several unfamiliar names from
non-European languages.

FWIW, since I've been subscribed to this (international) group, I've
gotten a pretty good idea from others here about certain ingredient
names in recipes that were "unfamiliar" to me. Happily, I discovered
that there were many "local" names for said ingredients; a lot of which
I could obtain. Good example is cilantro <shaddup everybody>. I always
knew it as coriander leaves or coriander roots... Turns out that it's
the same thing to a lot of people.

On the other tentacle, there are certain ingredients that have been
mentioned here that appear to have no local equivalents, so I've had to
either ask advice here about suitable substitutes or go on-line and see
if I can find any information there.

I wish it was easy to get rooted cilantro around here. You can someimes
get it in Vietnamese stores but you can't count on that. It does make an
excellent Thai marinade for chicken.



Gai Yang: pepper/ coriander root marinated chicken breast.



2 tsp black pepper corns

5 or 6 large garlic cloves

3 tab cilantro roots (probably have to make do with stems tho’ roots are
best).

Pinch salt

1 tsp Thai fish sauce



Blend and rub onto four portions of chicken breast, marinade for at
least an* hour. Cook on Foreman grill.



*Googling gives some indication that marinating for 4 hours might be
better.

Some people add lime juice, soy sauce, coconut milk, brown sugar and red
pepper flakes The last is rather inauthentic since a lavish use of black
pepper predates the Portuguese introduction of chilies. A more liquid
marinade can use chicken stock but this is more appropriate to slow
cooking on a barbeque.

"Ask on RFC"

Yeah, right. You'd get 117 different answers and then a whole bunch of
sub-threads arguing about which was correct.

The omelet would chime in about guns and get that crazy Canuckdian involved.

Maybe you should rephrase the poll.
If the ingredient is a spice or herb unknown to me, I'll look it up.
If it's something like "USAn Burper Helper" or "Wendy's Baking Mix"[1],
I won't even bother; be the measurements in cups or civilized units ;-P

I just thought it would be interesting whether the split
of ingredients into "unknown spices and herbs" and
"ready-to-use mixes" would lead to a different result.

I have no problem omitting something unfamiliar or hard to find,
unless of course it's one of the main ingredients.

I voted with the majority yet again. :-)

I recently asked one of our Indian co-workers the recipe for her Curry
Potato Puffs she had brought to the potluck. I think she appreciated
it. <g> She did not offer "amounts", just what she had put in it in
general. Mark of a true cook!

I only measure ingredients if I am baking which is something I only do
on very rare occasions...

I've learned that from looking at Indian recipes. :-)
And I used to hate it, but have recently begun developing an
appreciation for it, if it is used properly.

Like Cumin (Comino), it can be used in excess and overpower a recipe!

Hey now, be fair! ;-)
The only gun thread I've chimed in on recently was one somebody else
started!

OB food: Used up some BBQ'd turkey thigh tonight to make a few tacos
with shredded Romaine, a little sour cream and Pace medium Picante
sauce. ;-d I ate three of them and I'm stuffed!

Probably would. However, once the 'poll' is activated, I can't mess with
the questions/answers; it means creating a new one and starting from
scratch. You're welcome to submit a survey of your own anytime, and
I'll put it up for you... the more the merrier.

I'm with you on that one. I also like cumin, but not too much of it.
However IMO there is no such thing as too much garlic... <ducking and

yeah, but if you've been here a while you know whose opinions carry some

There's lots of good answers here. But as you imply you need to do a
bit of culling.

<lol> I used to feel that way about garlic too. ;-) Might make a fun
poll. Lately tho', fresh garlic is not agreeing with me so I'm back to
using more granulated. Got the flavor without the side effects.

Actually, when I stay on topic, many seem to appreciate my cooking
input. ;-)

I apologize for my occasional wanderings... <sigh>

Why? Even _I_ killfiled that thread!

Ob food: This past weekends BBQ leftovers are still coming in handy. I
smoked a week or so's worth of meats over oak and mesquite. Turkey
thighs, chicken hindquarters and a package of split chicken breasts
using Fiesta Brand Fajita Seasoning as the rub. No marinade.

They've made for an enjoyable week and envious co-workers when I heat
them up in the break room microwave and they get to enjoy the resulting
aroma. <g> I've gotten compliments on it.

Who cares if he's had a stroke. The important issue is only if he COOKS
or enjoys FOOD!
