Herbed Pizza Dough

Posted by ChefCO Mom  

This turned out sooooo great! My husband and I now only make this or slight variations of it when we want pizza. And there is no way I will ever buy pizza or pizza-crust in the store again, as this is so very simple to make and tastes a thousand... — Marianne in Switzerland Oct 15, 2009

Mashed Potato Casserole

Posted by John Padfield  

Made this last night to go with lamb rack. A big hit! I didn't have time to leave overnight, but that didn't matter much. I didn't use the butter, though, but some margarine in the potatoes. Thanks for sharing!! — Marianne in Switzerland Dec 19, 2005

Rack of Lamb With Chive Crust

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

I made this 16/5-05 and hubby was very impressed! Tasted absolutely wonderful! I replaced the butter with margerine, though - for cholesterol reasons. Also, I didn't have mint jelly, so I used very finely chopped peppermint leaves. The sauce was... — Marianne in Switzerland May 17, 2005

Simple Saute Scallops

Posted by Lois M  

Maybe my scallops were teeny (bought in Switzerland), but a total of 3 minutes frying time (on higher heat than recommended, mind you) was more than enough to send them rubbery. I can't understand how 15 minutes even at a lower heat wouldn't make... — Marianne in Switzerland May 17, 2005

Eggless Pasta

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by DiB's  

Made this 17/5-05 and it turned out really good. I was so impressed with how easy the dough was to work with! I did add about 1/4 cup more water - maybe the semolina here is dryer. But when I made spaghetti out of it, it took only a couple of... — Marianne in Switzerland May 17, 2005

Low-Fat Potato-Vegetable Chowder

Posted by Dancer^  

Made this 17/5-05 and it was really delicious! Made it as a side-dish to #22473. I used fresh carrots, yellow onions and potatoes and canned peas. The sweetness of the carrots gave this a lovely fresh taste! Thanks for sharing! — Marianne in Switzerland May 17, 2005

Chicken Italiano

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Derf  

This was a really good change from my other chicken dishes! Instead of grilling in the oven, I just put cheese on the chicken pieces and put the lid back on until the cheese melted (I used a mix of gouda and parmesan). The cheese flowed a little... — Marianne in Switzerland May 17, 2005

Stuffed Hamburgers

Posted by Mindi Righter  

I used to make something similar, but with cheddar cheese inside. Found out the cooking time increased quite a bit, as the cheese insulated the patties! — Marianne in Switzerland May 16, 2005

BBQ Salmon Filet

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

I didn't have schallot, so I used a small onion. I didn't have dried fine herbs, so I used 1 tbsp each of parsley and basil. I also added 2 tbsp of lemon juice. Cooked only 15 minutes, but it was a small piece - and tasted wonderful and was so... — Marianne in Switzerland May 16, 2005

Green Bean, Tomato and Salami Salad

Posted by Sandylee  

I made a reduced version of this for our grilling tonight. I didn't have salami, was planning to use normal onions instead of green, but hubby had used all our onions in the potatoe dish! So - no onions and no salami, but still a nice simple salad... — Marianne in Switzerland May 15, 2005

Mom's Marinated Cucumbers

Posted by Julesong  

Try squeezing the sliced cucumber well before adding it to the liquid. That way, the liquid will taste stronger / soak in better. — Marianne in Switzerland May 8, 2005

Mildew/Mold Buster

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by V'nut-Beyond Redemption  

Great idea! I wash my towels separately, as I don't use fabric conditioner on them (they soak water better then). I wonder if anyone has tried to add the tea tree oil in the washing machine - maybe it wouldn't smell so strongly then? — Marianne in Switzerland May 8, 2005

Easy Modelling Clay

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Kate in Ontario  

This really is a great recipe. In europe, we call this kind of dough Salt Dough, Saltzteig or Saltdeig. Experiment a little with adding more oil to make it supple - if you add too much, just add flour to dry it out a bit again. Wall-hanging... — Marianne in Switzerland May 8, 2005

Dutch Cucumber Salad

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Nine 1/2 fingers  

A couple of suggestions: Firstly, add salt and pepper to taste. Secondly, use a Norwegian cheese slicer to get really thin slices. Picture of what I mean here: www.bjorklund (the top-most ones) And thirdly, before you add the dressing, squeeze... — Marianne in Switzerland May 7, 2005
