Sausage Gravy

Posted by ThatJodiGirl  

A great base recipe for sausage gravy. I used spicy italian sausage and added a little paprika too. Served with MarieAlice's Baking Powder Biscuits #87258. I agree with a previous reviewer about cooking the flour with the sausage--not only does... — Cinizini Jan 15, 2007

Baking Powder Biscuits

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Tasty Tidbits  

I wanted to comment because I made this recipe twice over the past 2 days with very different results. Yesterday we made a half-batch using lard instead of Crisco and 2% milk in our warm kitchen--the biscuits turned out great, very flaky, high... — Cinizini Jan 14, 2007

Crispy Salmon Cakes With Lemon- Caper Mayonnaise

Posted by GaylaJ  

I chose not to rate this recipe as I modified it to suit what we had in the fridge...didn't have enough mayo so I used half mayo and half sour cream for the sauce--turned out wonderfully that way, I think sour cream was a good sub. (made some... — Cinizini May 21, 2006

Beef Kurmah (Curried Beef)

Posted by Latchy  

Excellent curry; I usually like my curries pretty spicy but the unusual flavor combinations and richness made up for it. Only addition was about a tsp, of salt. Awesome recipe-thank you! — Cinizini Sep 25, 2005

Khasta Roti

(5 people found this helpful) Posted by Charishma Ramchandani  

I served these for dinner last night with caetb's Curried Red Lentils "Curried Red Lentils" and plain yoghurt and we all loved them-- "These are really good!" I have never made roti nor parathas at home before so I just guessed at the method, being too... — Cinizini Jul 21, 2005

Curry Chicken Udon

Posted by Chef #214896  

We haven't had much curry udon but enjoyed the flavor of this recipe. The egg pancakes were an unusual and tasty addition, adding a different texture. At first I didn't think that it needed the cornstarch, from my experience using roux, but in... — Cinizini Jul 9, 2005

Old-Fashioned Anadama Bread

Posted by Elmotoo  

As a beginning baker, I appreciate the thorough notes in this recipe. I had a lot of fun making this, and took my time, stretching it out to about 5 hours, in between which I did other things around my apartment. It didn't seem to matter that the... — Cinizini Jun 26, 2005

Black Bean Dip

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

Yummy dip--love the chiles. As I do not have a food processor I used a pastry cutter to blend this, which made for a chunkier texture that we really liked. At the last minute (read: in the middle of making the recipe) I decided to make a double... — Cinizini Jun 23, 2005

Kofte Kebabs with Cucumber Mint Sauce

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

A great kofte recipe. My only note is that cooked in a pan over medium to medium high heat, these took about 15 minutes (If I had access to a grill I definitely would have chose that method, but they still turned out fine!). The mint in the... — Cinizini Jun 22, 2005

Buttermilk Bran Muffins

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

Excellent texture and flavor. I made a half-batch of these, twice, and don't think they need any butter; they're delicious by themselves. I also cut back on the sugar a bit. However, I did enjoy poking a hole in the center of a few and... — Cinizini Jun 19, 2005

Liked the tang from the cider vinegar. Would recommend sprinkling some toasted sesame seeds on the top. The flavors blended very well; thanks for posting! — Cinizini Jun 19, 2005

Chinese Meatballs

Posted by Gilcat2  

Excellent flavor--love the ginger in this, and the meatballs were very tender. I was anticipating that they might fall apart in the frying but they stayed together without incident. Added a little white pepper and dried shitake mushrooms to the... — Cinizini Jun 10, 2005

Cornmeal pancakes

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by integrity1st  

I made these for brunch today, just as written, very tasty. The slightly earthy flavor was very satisfying. I got 20 2-3" diameter cakes out of this and am going to freeze the rest as suggested. The flavor and texture of the cornmeal makes... — Cinizini May 29, 2005

Baked Chicken Nuggets

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

I made these tonight as my weekly snack group that I facilitate at work. Easy and fun to prepare, and very tender at the listed cooking time (20 minutes was perfect!). I doubled the recipe and used seasoned breadcrumbs (leaving out the dried... — Cinizini May 29, 2005

Curried Red Lentils

Posted by caetb  

Yummy recipe, easy to prepare; almost a smoky flavor, rich and subtle. I substituted 8 ounces of canned diced tomatoes for the puree and served this with a little plain yoghurt swirled into it, a handful of cilantro leaves, and sliced cucumbers on... — Cinizini May 28, 2005

Grits and Greens

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by crispychick  

I agree with Roosie, this was an excellent recipe! I cooked the stone ground grits that I have the way that I always do, using 2-percent milk, and then just added the sauteed greens. I subbed kale, a highly ruffly variety, which added a nice... — Cinizini May 27, 2005

Turkish Cornbread

Posted by Mirj  

I loved this cornbread, not least because of the yoghurt and olive oil, although my boyfriend said that he couldn't taste the oil. Didn't adjust anything. Stayed moist for at least 3 days, and was tasty with some homemade strawberry jam on... — Cinizini May 27, 2005

Hearty Kielbasa Stew

A very flexible recipe, and even better the next day, and the day after that! Wonderfully rich flavor that blends and improves over time. I substituted a 28 oz can of crushed tomatoes for the non-diced tomatoes in the recipe because that was what... — Cinizini May 27, 2005

Moroccan Chicken With Preserved Lemons and Couscous

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by bluemoon downunder  

I agree with the previous review: the amount of marinade worked well for half the amount of chicken. I didn't have any preserved lemons but the marinade was great on its own; I also used chicken parts instead of skinless breasts which added about... — Cinizini May 27, 2005
