About a hundred years ago I bought a can of 'large lima beans' and cooked them. I was sorely disappointed they weren't green like I was used to seeing. Darn can should have said 'large butter beans' and I wouldn't have gotten into such a snit. But I like both. |

I roasted an eye round to med. rare sliced onion skin thin, sauted slivered garlic with green beans, and roasted small white potatoes, smashed n' buttered. Someone gifted us a bottle of Platinum Series Brut from Sonoma County's Windsor Vinyards, Hopland CA, very nice domestic bubbly went well w/dindin. |

Jill == I am not sure why you say they are 'fork tender'. Can those fish be tough? That is something new. I've never found any fish to be tough, unless we are talking about overcooked shellfish. Interesting. |

Baked, fried, grilled. We had take-out sushi. We were both tired from working on our latest home-improvement projects. He wasn't too tired to make carrot-ginger salad dressing, and I wasn't too tired to throw together a couple of salads. Cindy Hamilton |

Does your grocery store sell catfish? I've never seen it here but then I've never specifically looked for it either. I'm not a big fish eater so most of mine comes to me fresh caught by friends and that's always sal****er fish. I did buy talapia once. Despite it's rep, I liked it. Nice mild taste. Oh.. bought shark meat once...good fried nuggets...and also salmon once just to try as I had never had it. I do love all shellfish muchly though prepared any way but raw. |

Here in SC here it's all about seafood so when I find catfish on sale for $6.99/lb (not previously frozen, according to Publix Supermarket) I snap it up and into the freezer it goes. Jill |

Where do you think I got it, dearie? I buy it when Publix has it on sale, which is a couple of times a year. It was a lot easier to find (and cost less) when I lived in the Memphis area.

May I quote " Partially freeze chicken about 30 minutes. Slice diagnonally into 1/4" thin strips; cut into 2" pieces. Blend nuts and sesame seed. In a small bowl, combine egg whites, cornstarch, milk, MSG and sugar to make a stiff batter. Stir in sherry.

I have 104 calico fillets, no kidding. Thoughts running thru my head with no good ones. I would ship half. These are tiny. I may wait until famished.

You want nice big side slabs. Season them, slip them in egg/milk then flour and then drop them in the deep fryer. When done the juice is bursting from the meat and will burn your tongue something awful if you aren't careful. It's the best but for me it is a special treat because to get the cuts I want is expensive and not often available. Janet US |
