What I did do was boil up two cups of fusilli pasta till it was tender. I then sliced up two large cloves of garlic into a large skillet along with 6 tablespoons of olive oil. As soon as the oil was hot I tossed in the prawns and stirred them around in the hot oil till they were all a...

What I'll probably do is peel the prawns, mount them on wooden skewers, brush them with lemon/garlic butter* and put them right on the grille. Turn and brush the other side. I'll Save some of the garlic butter for dipping lemon/garlic butter 1 cup melted butter one large clove garlic...

You are a real joy to have around aren't you? This is not a forum to cite what you think might be wrong with the B.C. fishing industry. The prawns I have, cook to a beautiful pink colour, and they just about fall out of their shells. Last week I used some in Tempura and they were great...

A week or so ago the Superstore were selling large bags of zipperback tiger prawns. These prawns are already de-veined and they come out of their shells quite willingly once they are thawed. I had divided the prawns into four smaller freezer bags. About 24 prawns per bag or about a dozen...

I assume Kerrie that you've already had your mango dessert. Sounds great. We had a friend(now deceased)who used to bring us a case of fresh peaches from the Okanagan. One of the things we did was the cream puff thing with sliced fresh peaches. Mangoes are a little more exotic. Should be...

Curio $ Bcool A couple posts up this page I blithered on about a store bought Yorkshire Pudding mix. The brand is French.....Might be the same company that makes the hot dog mustard. In any case their Yorkshire Pudding Mix is a very easy short cut and it works great You just have to ignore...

For the first time last night I tried French's Yorkshire Pudding mix. Somebody gave it to me about a year ago. It was just Jan and I last night and the mix only makes six yorkshires. I'm such a bloody purist that I was ready for these things to taste bad or not rise or something but they...

Apparently Browning was trying to dry out the seats of his car when he left a leaf blower unattended. The car caught fire and the fire quickly spread to the house. Eighteen fire trucks and about 80 firefighters were on scene at the height of the blaze which did about a million dollars worth...

These potatoes are netted gems but they are as small, some smaller, than marbles and I've already made a fuss about these great potatoes so I am kind of stuck. The mint chutney would work great. Thanks. Little carrots out of the garden are a real treat. We have grown a bushel or two of basil...

We have our grandson with us for the next few days. Tonight I thought I would braise some lamb chops. These are shoulder chops not the loin chops with about a teaspoon of meat on each one. There are three to eat and I have nine chops. I have some nice onions and I have mint almost taking...

The Save On or the Superstore had fresh dill last week. The dill we are growing in the garden is probably ready to use. I have used dried sprigs of dill and I throw in a couple of those as well as a few seeds. The dill pickles I make are usually braced with a very generous amount of garlic...

Right now the larger food stores have fresh dill. Failing that, you can use dried dill seeds and dried dill weed. If you are using large jars, a sprig or two of dried dill weed and a half teaspoon of dill seeds per jar. I'm assuming you have no problems putting together the liquid. At...

Oh yes Lego and other assorted bits and pieces that you can step on the wrong way a be limping for the next half an hour. I guess I have to take some responsibility since I picked the tile over Congolium lino. One thing about a lino floor is that you can ocassionally drop a glass on it and...

We want to downsize our big 14 or 16 cubic foot chest freezer. The new fridge has a 7.2 cu. ft. freezer and we should be able to get by with a 7 or 8 cu. ft chest freezer and get rid of the old one. Btw there is something on the market that reportedly solves the fingerprint problem.
