This was the last soup I made, spiced pumpkin and yellow split pea soup. It was fucking yum. I would make that tonight but I'm out of split peas.
2/20/2007 7:29:41 PM
hmm..that sounds really good
2/20/2007 7:35:25 PM
wow that soup does sound good.i'm in the mood to cook tonight. i have some ground beef in the fridge, and frozen chicken thighs (bone-in) and some other chicken tenderloin/breast things.i'm thinking about doing some mashed potatoes and maybe not a whole meatloaf but a mini-meatloaf thing. sounds pretty ho-hum, but i'm just craving comfort food. anyone have any good mashed potato recipes/suggestions? same for the meatloaf.
2/20/2007 7:38:06 PM
Yeah, it was really good. It used Japanese pumpkin (the small green ones they sell at Grand Asia), and was spiced with saffron, ginger, and a hint of cinnamon.Oh man, meatloaf DOES sound good. Maybe I'll make that tonight if they have a decent priced on ground meat.I'm a skins on mashed potato girl. No creamy potatoes for me [Edited on February 20, 2007 at 7:40 PM. Reason : ,]

potatoes, butter, milk, garlic (or garlic powder if you don't have the real stuff), and salt and peppermelt the butter..toss in chopped garlic and saute, then put in the milk til it boils...pour on top of slightly mashed potatoes....mix/mash a bit more
2/20/2007 7:40:03 PM

i have some evaporated milk, and a small variety of cheeses, and some regular 1% milk. i may try the evap stuff b/c i think it's richer than the other milk i have.i wish i had a larger amount of garlic, i'd roast some and put that in the potatoes.
2/20/2007 7:53:26 PM
i dont currently eat chicken.
2/20/2007 7:54:53 PM
As long as that variety doesnt include american or velveeta cheese, any will work and probably be good. Evaporated milk will work too, just dont use a ton.
2/20/2007 7:54:56 PM
^^ Why not?
2/20/2007 7:56:30 PM
yeah none of those cheeses are found in my fridge, thankfully. thanks for the advice. i cook a bit, but sometimes just knowing the best way to make the classics are important.
2/20/2007 7:56:33 PM
because i dont eat meat.
2/20/2007 7:57:40 PM
^^^Because he's trying to get unfat

2/20/2007 8:00:59 PM
All the vegetarians and vegans who moved here to Japan the same time as me have converted back save one. Japan is not veggie friendly

We had a birthday party at my place Friday night.We were all pretty drunk at this point. I made veggie lasagna and some cannelloni.I also made the birthday girl a chocolate cake with American style icing. Yum.
2/25/2007 8:00:35 AM
what's different about american-style icing? or how is japanese icing different?
2/25/2007 9:31:53 AM
Japanese icing usually has the taste and texture of whipped cream.

Boiled 2 Ramen packets + 4 servings of mixed frozen veggies + onion salt and pepperBrought down to simmer and added in beef buillionMeanwhile, baked a chicken, shredded it into bite-sized pieces, mixed in with noodles.Should last about a week.
2/25/2007 7:18:43 PM
mmmm so i was bored today, so i tried something new. well, it's not a new dish, but i've never made a basic bechamel before, so i attempted it. it was okay, not the best ever, but i infused it with garlic, which was nice. i sauteed a chicken breast and shallots, actually let the shallots caramelize while the chicken cooked. steamed fresh broccoli and made fusilli, and topped my 'pasta bowl' with a bit of mozz and parm.lunch and dinner today, probably lunch and dinner tomorrow too.
