I used to do a mix of a lot of great spices cornmeal, cornflour, and flour and put it in the processor then coat-dredge-coat-fry; green tomatoes, eggplant (preferably Asian), zucchini, summer squash and anything else that is seasonal and good fried. All very young and cross cut and on the same large platter when done. That way you don't know what you are getting. There were always good dipping sauces too. It was a fave with friends and family, I miss doing it. |

BBQ Squirrel
~ 4 squirrels, quartered ~ 3 tbsp salt ~ 2 tsp pepper ~ 1 tsp garlic powder ~ 1 tsp onion powder ~ your favorite dry rub ~ 15 charcoal briquets ~ 3 handfuls hickory chips ~ your favorite bbq sauce In a large pot, boil the squirrel in water seasoned with the salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder for 1 hour or until tender. In the meantime, soak the hickory chips in water. Light the charcoal and let them get white hot. Place them to one side of your grill. Remove the squirrel from the water and pat dry. Coat with your favorite dry rub. Add one handful of wood chips to the hot coals. Place squirrel on grill across from the hot coals. Cover and smoke for 1 hour.

Yeah, where O where to go for funny grains? The health-food stores in my area sell it packaged or in bulk -- look carefully at the bulk, 'cos quinoa looks like great big amaranth! As I've said, two volumes of stock to one volume, perhaps a little more, of quinoa cooks up nicely in a rice cooker. Or else use water if you're not trying for the pilaf effect.

Quote:
Here's one I want to try. Clam Bake Stoup Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray, 2007 See this recipe on air Tuesday Sep. 04 at 6:00 PM ET/PT. Show: 30 Minute Meals Episode: Clam Up 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 3/4 pound kielbasa, diced 4 cups (half a 32-ounce bag) frozen diced hash browns 1 large onion, chopped 4 ribs celery, chopped 1 bay leaf 5 to 6 sprigs fresh thyme Salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined 1 rounded tablespoon seafood seasoning (recommended: Old Bay) 4 large ears corn on the cob or 3 cups frozen kernels 1 (15-ounce) can diced fire-roasted tomatoes 1 quart chicken stock 4 dozen littleneck clams Hot sauce, to taste 1 lemon, zested and juiced Handful fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped 4 jumbo sourdough English muffins, split 3 tablespoons butter 1 clove garlic, peeled 2 tablespoons chopped chives Heat a large soup pot with extra-virgin olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and brown for 2 minutes; add the potatoes, onions, celery, bay, thyme, and salt and pepper and let the veggies soften up 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pat shrimp dry and toss with a rounded tablespoon (a generous palmful) of seafood seasoning. Invert a small bowl and place at the bottom of a larger bowl. Shuck corn and stand on end on the small bowl. Scrape off kernels. Add corn to soup pot. Add the tomatoes and stock to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Add the shrimp and clams and replace the cover. Cook until shrimp are pink and firm and the clams have opened up, 5 to 6 minutes. Finish stoup with hot sauce, lemon zest and juice and a handful of parsley. While the seafood cooks, toast the English muffins. Soften the butter in the microwave. Mash the garlic cloves with a little salt and make a paste. Add the chives and garlic paste to the softened butter and mix. Rub hot toasted muffins with garlic/butter mixture and chop into large dice. Serve stoup in shallow bowls with muffin croutons. Place an extra bowl at each setting to collect shells as you eat your Clam Bake Stoup. Last edited by skysidhe; 09-17-2007 at 12:02 PM. Reason: add title |

I think ol' Rachel gets EVOO into everything short of vanilla ice cream. And my own consumption of EVOO has gone up quite a bit since I started watching her show. Kinda too bad for us guys she's been married for a couple of years, huh?
(Remember to scroll down farther on the page for a paragraph I neglected to copy into the recipe.)

I could kind of crush on Rachel, not least for her looking like she should have dimples in her cheeks when she smiles that broad smile -- but she doesn't. Attention-getting.
Hey, she's brunette, she's clearly passionate about food and its creation, she's got a good figure. And she can cook -- and she can teach you how. She makes good money at it too. Rachel's got a lot going for her. Some don't like her vocal squeaks, but they don't bother me. What does bother me is accidentally treading on my tongue watching her. That's a hell of a way to find out the living room carpet really needs vacuuming. Well, ninety to ninety-five men out of a hundred like people like you, skysidhe. You know, female people. That, and the fully grown make the best partners. Remember that men as a whole are less inclined to say love loudly than to do love, and long. Meanwhile, it's a real hoot getting men to do something if you can frame it as an opportunity to show off before women. That is like totally not a secret; you'll see us smile knowingly then, and, laughing a little, go right on to do whatever it is. Right down to "honey-do" projects.

![]() I do agree that fully grown partners are nice except that by my age if a man isn't attached there are some serious reasons? I don't know I've been out of the loop. It's either that or I am a freak magnent and therefore lose my trust so/ and ....therefore I don't see so clearly. You might ask the same of a woman who at my age isn't attached. Well for me it has been rasing a kid. My whole focus even to the exclusion of my own needs which isn't healthy but when your plate has been full things just are sometimes. I do agree that a man usually expresses his love by doing something and I like that since that is my way to express love too. I think giving of oneself is a good way to create harmony in a relationship. A giving back and forth...words don't mean so much if not matched by the action. So I know that was a little bit personal but since you shared what seemed a genuine effort I thought I would respond in kind. thanks for the nice little chat ![]() |
