What did everyone cook today?
-
craigrice My wife has been making noodles since she was a teenager, learned it from an aunt I think.
-
the best ways are the ones passed down
-
craigrice Absolutely, I am assembling recipes from my grandmothers, aunts and my parents. Also recipes from my wife’s family. Have a hand written one from my grandmother making homemade soap.

craigrice Or a little of this, my mother always likes to say, “oh you know how much.” No I don’t that’s why I am asking.

craigrice When my wife would talk to my mom about some of her recipes it would drive her crazy because my mom would give ingredients but she would always say a little of this and a little of that when she tried to get measurements. Finally had my mom measure things for a base and then my wife learned to add more of the seasonings she likes. Now she is like my mom “put in as much of something as you like then taste it” I think this is the difference between cooking and baked goods.

bocephus Yep because baking is science where general cooking isn’t.

Ok. Been totally obsessed with baby reds for the last couple weeks. Fried, broiled and grilled doesn’t matter.
Today… Grilled with a ribeye. First try with the Gaucho seasoning. Awesome!

Tried hard not to finish this so I had a little taste at work tomorrow.
Really really good.

Some Evans didn’t hurt!

PapaSop that is a great looking meal!

Should we fire up the debate again as Jonathon alluded too on the livestream today? I made chili. Not Texas chili but chili the way we eat it up North. You see, we eat chili when it is cold out. Therefore, we put beans in it. You need all the extra protein you can get to help keep you warm and the beans help it stick to your ribs! Anyways, this was a mighty good bowl!

ND Mike If you get to New Mexico and ask for chile, they will ask you red or green. When we first moved here my wife went to a hotdog place and ordered a hotdog and they asked her red or green, she said “red or green what”.

PapaSop We love to do potatoes on the grill like that, almost every time I grill steaks we do potatoes in foil.

PapaSop glad you like Gaucho! It’s good stuff!

ND Mike We now get two to three 40 lb sacks of roasted green chile every year, depends on what requests we get from brothers and sisters. We like it on just about anything.

ND Mike I eat chili year round, I don’t need an excuse to eat it. I am pro-NO BEANS. But I will stop right there with that, I will not argue it. You do you.
