Default Can you cook me...

I am pretty sure if someone stopped by and said Can You Cook me this I could on spot. Do you have the stuff from the food groups and spices to do it?

My stock is 100 spices, 20 meats, flours, vin, wine, sauces i have no idea about. Im sure ill be asked. Btw, no housemates, just a wife that does not cook.

Toss me a recipe request so i can say No Idea. Got the stuff though.

Squid-A-Roni with roasted beets in a mashed chicken liver cream sauce.
Lets call it "canopeilia a bellisima".
You were just dangling out there for a while and I bit.

No. Why should I? I stock the ingredients for stuff that I like.

What? You don't stock your cupboards with all kinds of food waiting for
someone to stop by and ask you to cook for them? How unreasonable. ;-)

I just googled to see if "Can You Cook Me..." is a game show or something.
Nothing turned up.

It sounded like a variation on "Door Knock Dinners".

Cindy, or a variation on, "Do you have any recipes from Europe?" Remember that one?

Agreed. I'd not invite someone into my house who knocks on the door and
says "can you cook this?" Guards!

I'm not above a DAK canned ham. They can be quite useful in the right
cookery.

We used to take DAK canned bacon (raw) on our dishing-cabin vacations when my boys were young.
It is really tasty, and shelf stable.

Seems like most here took your hypothetical scenario to be a real
situation. It is an interesting challenge.

I'm curious about the 20 meats though. Are you counting all things beef
as one, or is prime rib roast, steak, and ground beef counted as three?

Do you have rabbit, duck, goose on hand?

Ed, no exotics on hand. Want pasta white or red, scallops added, coffee and desert i am in. Football appetisers im in. Dinner, in. Fun to be able to rock on for my friends. G and T? Rock on. Like Sheldon, bad weather zone so we depend on families who can support and sustain.
"Can you make a loaf of seaded rye?" No. I have some.
Did the potketta, wings comming up, yet to go shopping for bread and the meat sales. Might not. Yukon changing my mind.

Having a big freezer free from fire dept helps with storage.
Julie asked meat. The veggies and pantry mean i can weather the storm.

I saw the list after posting my question. You are well stocked. Always
good to have some backup.

It's also possible that 'slut' doesn't refer to red, but to
raspberries. You know, slut raspberries.

You wouldn't want to feed him in the first place, he might come back if you
did, best to outwait him and let him feed his face somewhere else.

Maybe if I'd offer him a tofu Reuben, he'd run like mad and never come
back.

I prefer a link if the poster had tried the recipe, no reason for them to
type it all out or copy and paste. Soon the responses cause the post to be
very long with lots of scrolling involved. JMO

An exception to what? I was being facetious. I know you didn't make
the pastrami. No shame in that. LOL I know you made the rye bread.
You like to bake bread.

But what would you do if someone actually walked into your house and
said, "Can you cook me..."? What's the scenario? Are they forcing you
to cook for them at gunpoint or something? Does not compute.

I don't know about you, but if that happened I'd call the cops. Then
I'd sic my cat on them. LOL

Grin, if I knew them and it was a friendly encounter, I'd cook it for
them. Fact is my long term next door neighbor who passed a bit over a
year ago, had alzheimers and used to wander over and ask his his
daughter (or longer passed away wife) was here as he wanted (insert
food item).

Anyways, I think the thread started in a simple fun of 'can you make
this', not someone invading the house right? Seemed so to me but I may
have missed something.

I love Kerry Gold butter and I like my butter bell, too.

I didn't think Kerry Gold was any better tasting than "Challenge," we can buy here. I,have no
idea if it is national or not.

Nancy2, I have no idea what "Challenge" is in terms of butter. Kerry
Gold Irish Butter is 18% butterfat. It's very unlike any butter I ever
tasted growing up. Mom only put real butter on the table on holidays.

I really like Kerry Gold. I first heard about it here on RFC and
decided to try some. It's absolutely delicious. Rich, real butter.

I'd like to imagine it's what butter would taste like if I'd ever lived
on a farm when it was freshly churned. It's really tasty. A tad
expensive. But I don't own a butter churn.

Shouldn't that be 81%?

Looks like it's available in the western states.

Kerry Gold is what we use on bread or wherever it's not cooked
into something.

My sil shook the bejesus out of some cream in a sealed container and
come up with some decent butter. Way too much work for me.

You see warnings that if you beat your cream too long, instead of
whipped cream you'll get butter. Maybe if I'm bored one day I'll
give it a shot. Break out the hand mixer.

I did that. It was good, but since I was making whipped cream I put
sugar in it. Had a nice texture though.
