Category: DessertsServings: 1 1/2 cups Description: Lemon Curd is an absolute favorite of mine when it comes to the use of lemons. Lemon curd can have so many uses. Eat it as it is, use it for a pie filling, put it between layers of cake(great for an Easter cake), make a no bake cheese cake...

It looks good in here this morning.

I guess that most people that use the internet may also have blog sites that they use also. I use to use Yahoo 360 until they decided they wanted to shut it down. I spent years there and built a pretty good group of friends through the years. When 360 let out the news that they were going to...

I love pepperoni and this is an excellent appetizer using it. I use a home made dough for my Stromboli but a store bought dough would be fine. Flatten out the dough into a rectangular shape to fit a sheet pan. Layer on slices of pepperoni. Top with cheese, just a small amount of a favorite...

Description: As many of my friends know, I love to grill. On PBS there was a program called Barbecue University and now it has morphed into a program called Primal Grill. In the past I posted a Barbecue Chicken with a coffee rub and coffee Barbecue sauce theme. Now I am sharring this recipe for...

I hit search mode for Baked Ziti and was shocked to see that it is mentioned a lot. Even by me. I couldn't find one recipe for it though and thought that I had better contribute. Ingredients 1 pound of cooked Ziti pasta, under cooked by about two minutes. 1 lb of ricotta cheese 2 16 oz cans...

I made this pizza Tonight. The dough was a bit different than a conventional pizza dough. I was very please with the finished results. The crust was very light and airy with a very thin crispy exterior. I took a few pictures of the dough as I was getting ready to bake it. Getting the batter...

Description: I love cube Steak. It's just one of those comfort food meals that leaves everyone happy. This steak comes out so tender you could cut it with a spoon. I like to serve it with either a rice or mashed potatoes. Pickled beets or cabbage make an excellent veggie. Ingredients: 6 cube...

Description: This is the style of potato soup I grew up with. It's thick and creamy with chunks of potatoes and ham. My mother always thickened hers by adding a flour slurry but I like my way just a wee bit better. I make it every St. Patrick's Day. I slow cook it in the crock pot all day and...

Description: I don't get to eat mushrooms that often because my wife and girls won't even touch one. My son is home on spring break and he does like them too. I have been on a bit of a mushroom craze. I made the following pie using fresh mushrooms and homemade Ricotta cheese. A big thank you...

I have been noticing on many threads the discussions of spices, brines and homemade mixes such as Taco Seasonings and rubs. Even information regarding herbs and seasonings used in other countries. I think that it would be a good idea that a thread on the Cooking Forum for "The Spice Place" be...

I made up a nice stew tonight and wanted to make up some Spatzels to go along with it. I have tried to make Spatzels numerous times without having very much success. Tonight wasn't any different. My birthday was yesterday and as requested I was given an 8 quart Calphalon stock pot with a two...

I had a craving yesterday for a really good Eclair so I made a batch last night. I was given the recipe yesterday by a friend and decided to try it. The recipe has an excellent approval rating from me. These Eclairs are excellent. I took this picture right after putting on the gnash...

I have to ask the question. As far as Popcorn is concerned, do you pop your own or get the stuff for the microwave? I literally suck at microwaving popcorn. I am guaranteed to burn it and there is one thing a person should not eat is burnt popcorn. All you have to do is burn a few kernels and...

I understand that food cost had to go up due to the cost of diesel and fuel that was needed for transportation of food items. I know they had to bring up produce prices but I think that the grocerey stores are taking it to an extreme. Lately I have just been so disgusted in the produce section...

I'll probably get in trouble for the name of this recipe. It's one of my favorite dishes and I have made it for so many years but have never known what it is really called. Maybe Mama can come to the rescue. Ingredients 3/4 cup of flour for dredging. 3 tablespoons of Olive Oil. 4 boneless...
