Cooking & Baking
Related: About this forumWhat's for Dinner, Tues., Sept. 28, 2021
I saw a package of 16 beans at the store and wanted to buy them but had my doubts as to whether they would all have the same cooking time. I knew I had a variety of dried beans at home, so I decided to make them myself. I doubt I will reach 16 but maybe 8.
Therefore: eight-bean soup with garlic-pork sausage. The latter is in the slow cooker now. I am using my own fresh tomatoes, which are already chopped. I also happened into a great deal on chicken bone broth yesterday, so I'm using that for the stock. And of course, my own homegrown onions and herbs.
Multi-seed bialy to go with the soup tonight.
Dessert: new type of Greek yogurt--tropical fruit. That, along with tea and biscuits.

(42,681 posts)It stuck just a little. I don't use spray oils or spray whipped cream because of the metal content, or so I was told. The insides of the can of course are metal, and the contents are in contact with it until it's empty.

(21,922 posts)For us, that seems to be a crucial factor. Without enough oil, we get the cough sticking or baking onto the pan or stone.
I hope your pie was yummy!

(42,681 posts)I don't measure anything, and I try to keep the oil down for calorie reasons. For this personal half-size pie I use a bit over a tablespoon. And I used canola. Though olive oil would make it more stretchy and add a bit of flavor.
And thanks, it was a good pie. Crust did much better in the metal pan which got hotter.

(20,908 posts)First, we'll have a salad of red leaf lettuce, yellow cherry-sized tomatoes, slices of Vidalia onion, chopped walnuts and raisins with a strawberry dressing.
Second, pan-fried salmon with a honey & lime glaze served with yellow rice and steamed broccoli.
Third, cream sherry as we play Backgammon!
