I finally made one.

I've been making 'em, fer yrs, but am I getting burnt out on cooking?

My last effort, a couple weeks ago, I got so un-enthused about it, I
let the ingredients go bad. Really. Sauteed mushrooms and grn onions
will not keep. They dry out ina couple days.

Now, I gots some bad pecorino cheese, which I'm returning to Safeway
fer a full refund. The quiche turned out OK, but I can taste that bad
cheese. Bummer. 8|

Really? Then prepare to get squicked by these ads!

I did put two really large, baked sweet potatoes in the fridge awhile ago. I
half ass covered them with foil sheets. Wasn't quite enough to cover the
whole thing but I will be using them tomorrow and they had the skin on them.
I might turn half of a melon upside down in a bowl. And if I know it is
something that my husband will likely be eating within the next hour, like a
slice of pizza, then I'll throw in a cheap bread bag. Other than that, it
gets covered.

I don't know how long mushrooms would keep but I don't think they are safe
at the 7 day mark. As for green onions, I have not had them dry out once
cooked, but the texture isn't very good if they sit in the fridge once
cooked. I've had leftover Asian food with them in it and they just go kind
of icky.

If I am making something that uses green onion and I know there will be
leftovers I add the onion as I dish the food up. Then I add more to the
leftovers after it is heated.

My son and d-i-l always make a mushroom onion mixture, sautéed in oil,

I do salmon with a mushroom, shallot, walnut, and cream sauce.

Try salmon and asparagus, a perfect pairing. Either a quiche or pan
fried salmon w/ butter/asparagus sauce. Both are to die for!

I don't like mushrooms and egg. Joe's Special topped with mushrooms
is a classic around here. Nope. Don't like it.

That dress? The oven advert with a woman lounging on a stool with a very
plunging neckline.


The thing about the hams made me chuckle. The fridge adverts showing them
with several hams inside and "Don't let your hams build up"

Is walnut _oil_ OK? I use a splash of walnut oil and a bit of butter
when I cook the salmon.

Oh yes Just the nuts I am not keen on. All the salmon here has been
going to the dog <g> She sees a dermatologist and he prescribed Salmon and
potato kibble to check out if it was food allergies. I thought that was
awfully boring so made some fresh. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending
on how you see it) she couldn't take it and it gave her the runs! Just an
aside you understand ... )

I don't do ham in warm weather, I don't light my oven in warm weather,
It's 83 degrees outside now, once the AC is on I don't use the oven.
I have a pound of ham from the deli... does canned Spam count?

It seems to be india and Japan to me but they use a brown gravy and add
lots of various curry type blends to them. I love it.

I'm having a hard time imagining anything I cook that would benefit
from the addition of curry flavoring to the gravy. Curry doesn't
scream gravy to me anyway, it says "sauce".

Yeah. Here family must really love ham!

I can remember being made to wear poofy skirted dresses with stiff and
scratchy crinolines built in when I was little. Although they were fun to
twirl around in, I otherwise hated them. Thankfully that fad died quickly.

guest.

Thats ok! We do not all cook the same.

Imagine this: 2 cups of a brown gravy (any type you make) then add 2-4
Teaspoons curry mix (type of choice, I have probably 10 curry mixes
here) and let it meld. Pour over rice or cook a suitable meat in the
gravy then pour over rice.

I *think* I learned that In Hawaii with their fusion cookery but not
sure.
