In article , says... "Tracy" wrote in message ... WOW Martin, will you marry me? Oh, wait, I'm already married. Damn. BACK OFF tracy, he's mine...................... CAT FIGHT!!!!!! Merely for the record, my wife assures me that I am quite thoroughly married (and she has the really BIG gun). We have no particular food traditions (meat and potato sundays, pasta fridays, that sort of thing), eclectic tastses, and a vast collection of cookbooks. For us, lowcarbing is easy. I have the greatest respect for people without our cooking experience, who still manage to tough it out. Tonight we had stuffed poblanos: Brown ground pork (sausage would work, but the spicing would be odd). Add 1 1/2 teaspoons dried chipotle powder, 1 1/2 tablespoons mild chile powder, vinegar and and salt to taste. Blanch fresh poblanos until they lose their crisp. Cut off the tops of the peppers, stuff with grated cheese and pork mixture. Arrange prettily in a casserole dish. Top with the remaining pork and sprinkle cheese over, bake until the cheese begins to brown. To tie back to the original thread, this recipe would work well with chopped or ground chicken thighs. 215/175/165 since 4/1/2003, Martin -- Martin Golding | Since I ate lots of olive oil when it was bad for me, DoD #236 | do I have to eat twice as much now to make up? |

I have the greatest respect for people without our cooking experience, who still manage to tough it out. It isn't tough at all. I collect really OLD cookbooks. I just love them and when I read through them I am able to find a lot of low carb recipes and just by following the recipe instructions I am able to make some pretty decent low carb meals for myself when I am in the mood to cook. |

On maintenance, I've gone back to making roux sauces and pan gravies. Two Tbsps flour used in a cup of sauce/gravy is only about 12 to 14g for the entire batch -- that's only about 3 or 3.5g for 1/4 cup. I roast small whole chickens on a vertical roaster (wire cone frame) in a pyrex pie pan. IMO, it's easier to baste them, and more of the skin comes out crispy. When I make them, I put the neck and giblets in a small saucepan with a hunk of onion, carrot and celery and water to cover, and simmer for stock to make pan gravy. I use a few tablespoons of the pan fat blended with 2 Tbsp flour, all the pan drippings that aren't fat (using a gravy separator), and blend in about a cup of the strained stock, with salt and pepper to taste. Another thing I do when roasting whole chickens/turkeys is to take the blobs of fat found by the lower opening, and stuff them under the tallest part of the breast skin. This helps prevent the breast from drying out before the legs are done. (I don't care for injected marinades or brining. Personally, I want my chicken to taste like chicken and my turkey to taste like turkey.) -- jamie ) "There's a seeker born every minute." |
