Is that like a pirogi, grrlscout?
They are a form of dumpling, like pierogies. But these are Japanese.Quote:

I brown them in a pan, then add a little water, and cover, to steam them.
Just Made myself a BLT-T, Bacon, Lettuce, TaMater and Turkey Sandwich, that and a handful of Doritos, and a glass of Ice cold Milk ,, MMmmm :drool:
Gonna' slice up some of that BBQ chicken I got yesterday. (A local poultry shop sells hundreds of them every Sunday.)
Cold sliced chicken (about a 3" stack) goes between a couple of slices of 7 grain bread with a bit of mayo and a sliced half avocado. Made me some 'tater salad. That'll go on the side and it'll all get washed down with an ICE COLD RED STRIPE! :)
CORRECTION: I used the whole avocado. :blushing:Quote:

Fresh sliced cukes and onions from the garden. They are in a sour cream marinade just chillin'.

Here's my first year blackberry bushes after I picked them this morning.

I had grilled chicken, mustard greens, northern beans, tomato and okra. For the portions it came out to be about 300 calories. A piece of cornbread and butter would've been nice.
I already ate some BBQ chicken...but now I have a craving for some butter beans! They make me have wild dreams! LOl! I have some homemade chow-chow to put on them!
Cowboy? What is "chow-chow?" :innocent:
It's a relish...green tomatoes,onions, cabbage something like that.Quote:

Sounds like kimchee, The spicier the better.
I love chow chow but I like the sweet southern version rather than the spicy hot stuff.
Ingredients:
2 quarts shredded cabbage (about one medium head). I use the same grater to shred the cabbage that I do to make slaw.
1/2 cup sweet onions chopped fine
1/2 cup chopped green or red bell peppers (optional)
2 Tablespoons salt
Combine chopped vegetables and sprinkle with salt. Let stand 4 to 6 hours in the refrigerator. Drain well.
Combine the following ingredients and simmer 10 minutes. Use a pot large enough to put the vegetable mix in later.
2 cups vinegar
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons celery seeds
2 teaspoons mustard seed
Add vegetables to vinegar-sugar-spice mixture and simmer another 10 minutes. Bring to a boil. Then pack, boiling hot, into clean, heated canning jars, leaving only a 1/8 inch head space. Place canning lids and rings on jars and tighten. I usually turn the jars upside down so that all the heat is on the seals. I don't turn them back upright until the jars are completely cool.
Rick, you know that method of sealing isn't really recommended any more, right?
(though people have lived through decades of worse methods...)

I just tried making some bagels for the first time. Started a little too late in the evening for kitchen experiments. They're actually not too bad. Kinda ugly, not smooth skinned. But tasty. The blueberry ones are killer!
It isn't a jam. You are pickling. Hotpacking is fine for pickling.
I'm going to have to try this. Thanks Rick.Quote:

EASY BLACKBERRY COBBLER
□ 1/2 c. butter
□ 1 c. all-purpose flour
□ 1 c. sugar
□ 1 tbsp. baking powder
□ 1/8 tsp. salt
□ 2/3 c. milk
□ 1 (16 oz.) pkg. frozen blackberries, thawed
Melt butter in a 2 quart casserole. Combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and milk in a small mixing bowl, mix well.
Pour mixture over melted butter, do not stir. Spoon blackberries over batter; do not stir.
Bake at 350°F. for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Mmm, that sounds good. Is there any trick to deal with the seeds? I don't mind them, but my family doesn't like the seeds in blackberries.
