Best Roast Pork I've Ever Eaten

Lavender and Honey Roasted Chicken

Posted by Annacia  

i took off one star b/c i HATE basting every 5 minutes. that's a real drag. the house smelled incredible and the skin tasted incredible too. however, the rest of the meat (which really is the part i should be eating, not the skin, ha ha)... — jimnyo Oct 5, 2009

Oven Baked Chocolate Chip Pancakes

Posted by swirlycinnacakes  

this rating is only for the technique, as i wanted to make my batter from scratch and used Chocolate-Chip Feather Pancakes, chocolate chip feather pancakes (w/half a teaspoon of cinnamon added). i don't know if it's b/c my nonstick pan was too cheap or i didn't... — jimnyo Aug 22, 2009

Not Fried, Fried Ice Cream

Posted by Wendy W88  

great recipe. however, a couple things...first, i melted the butter before adding it to the ingredients. second, i am lazy and even though this tastes just like fried ice cream, i think next time i'm just going to make the coating ahead of time,... — jimnyo Apr 29, 2009

Green Rice (Broccoli, Cheese, and Rice Casserole)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by A Messy Cook  

as the recipe stands, i give it 3 stars. but if you just add your own flavor it's definitely a 4. i added garlic salt, pepper & a dash of nutmeg. it probably needs a little something else too, but i'm not sure what. i needed it asap, so i... — jimnyo Feb 7, 2009

Roast Pork With Herb Crust

Posted by L DJ  

can't give it stars, as i tried using the technique from Six Hour Pork Roast (six hour pork roast) but it didn't crust like i was hoping, probably b/c this recipe uses a mustard spread first before laying down the crust. also, i used a super long 8.8... — jimnyo Dec 27, 2008

Perfect Prime Rib

Posted by Lightly Toasted  

well, i can only attest to the technique, which i would give 4 stars. i didn't have horseradish, so i just used the seasonings from kittencal's perfect prime rib recipe (#82023), which consisted of studding it with garlic cloves the night before... — jimnyo Dec 27, 2008

Best Ever Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by HollyJane  

easy and great. tastes just a tad better than plain salted. UPDATE: took a cue from some of the other recipes on this site and boiled the seeds in water first with 1/8 t. salt for 10 mins. and then proceeded with the recipe. Improves texture... — jimnyo Oct 20, 2008

Sweet and Spicy Pumpkin Seeds

Posted by ArtWork  

this recipe is straight off of the martha stewart website, so i don't know who copied who. this is still sweet, though not as sweet as the "pumpkin pie seeds" recipe on this site. flavor is a little more earthy, smoky & complex. my husband... — jimnyo Oct 20, 2008

Breaded 'n Baked Zucchini Chips

Posted by Marie  

well, i made these from pre-sliced zucchini i had frozen a couple months ago in the freezer, so they were a bit thinner than the 1/4" in the recipe--closer to 1/8". but i definitely didn't have a problem with them coming out mushy. i used 1 t.... — jimnyo Oct 18, 2008

Crock Pot Chocolate Mud Cake

Leg of Lamb in the Crock Pot
