Menma - Braised Bamboo Shoots for Ramen Topping

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 06:09:01 -0500

I normally make this using whole refrigerated bamboo shoot that I can purchase in Japanese market nearby in California. If whole bamboo shoot is used, cut lengthwise into about 1/4 in slices first. Then cut into 1/4 inch slices. Finally cut the 1/4 inch slices into half. The slices do not need to be perfect - they will taste great when finished. You can also use canned bamboo as well (although taste will be not as good as the fresh version). Menma is granddaddy of one of ramen toppings. In old days if you ordered ramen in Tokyo this was always one of the toppings along with shoyu or soy sauce flavored soup. You can purchase this in a bottle commercially but the cost is quite high for a small bottle. I like to sometimes serve this as a snack for beer, white wine or sake. If served as snack, it is very good with sprinkling of roasted sesame seeds on top. -- posted by Rinshinomori

Butter and Herb Chicken Wings

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 09:27:47 -0500

This is a common choice in NNY next to hot wings. It is very buttery and has a great flavor. The seasoning is sometimes difficult to find. A substitute is one of McCormick's seasonings. I submit this for a helping of six wings, but it can be multiplied easily. -- posted by Chef #1437667

Philly Buffalo Chicken Dip

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 18:48:59 -0500

Another recipe for a Buffalo chicken dip but this is different than the one posted. Found this in a pamphlet called "Game Day Greats" at the grocery store. This is an appetizer so it makes approximately 2 1/4 cups of dip or is approximately 18 small servings with crackers. -- posted by mama smurf

Fruit and Cheese Bites

Wed, 27 Jan 2010 23:58:20 -0500

This recipe was from Family Circle Magazine Dec. 2009. It was considered to be a healthy recipe choice for those having parties with lots of food and drink. I made them for a meeting and they were a hit. I think you have to serve them with other things because despite being healthy they are a bit rich. I like them as a great alternative to the usual cheese ball. The nuts give it crunch and the two cheeses with the three fruits was very unique. This is not for someone who doesn't like cheese though. Perfect for the holidays, New Year's parties or anytime you need a no cook appetizer. Enjoy! ChefDLH -- posted by ChefDLH

Dad's Mouth-Watering Shrimp Cocktail

Sat, 30 Jan 2010 21:56:52 -0500

This is my dad's surprisingly simple -- and delectable -- recipe. It's rare to find a shrimp cocktail anywhere today served "in the sauce". I'm not interested in dunking colossal chewy shrimp into a thick gloopy sauce, any more than I'm thrilled about tossing the chewed-off tails onto my plate like old chicken bones! When I asked my dad why he loved shrimp cocktail in the sauce, I loved his reply: "Because I can shovel it into my mouth -- shrimp, sauce, and all"! -- posted by Bazaar®

Pecan Butter

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 11:49:10 -0500

This is a Taste of Home recipe. I had an abundance of pecans when I tried this and it is different but oh so good. It's a great spread for muffins, biscuits, rolls and even slices of pound cake. The original recipe calls for finely chopped pecans but since I didn't want chunks of nuts in the spread, I ground them in my food processor and then added it to the mix. Wonderfully simple and delicious! -- posted by Roxanne J.R.

Buffalo Chicken Wing Dip

Mon, 01 Feb 2010 12:39:13 -0500

a great way to enjoy chicken wings without the mess. great served with celery or tortilla chips for dipping. I like to use a crock pot to keep this dip warm during parties, just mix everything up on the stove than transfer to the crock pot or you can use a electric fondue pot on warm too. If you don't want to use those then separate into small batches in oven safe dishes so you can keep the dip warm. Not sure where the recipe came from, everyone I know has their own spin for it. -- posted by Chef ChristinaMac

I serve it with baked Tostitos chips for a guilt-free treat, but no one would ever guess it's low fat if you served it to guests.

Here's a quick, easy, and delicious, piping hot crab dip, perfect for a winter gathering. The base is cream cheese, mayo and crab. We've dressed ours up with green onions, parsley, horseradish, slivered almonds and Tabasco. The proportions are guidelines, really this is to taste. -- posted by P ROD

Joan's Ultimate Appetizer

Mon, 08 Feb 2010 12:15:51 -0500

This is my mother's appetizer that I upgraded to match my tastes. It is a very fast and easy recipe that will always be polished off at parties. It is best served warm so keep it covered, even better covered with warmed cloth napkins. This recipe does not do well reheated as it dries out in the oven or gets mushy in the micro. Please use "bacon bits" or the cheap version. Real bacon lacks the salty crunchy flavor that the bacon bits have. I have tried all the versions of brand name and non for the ingredients and really it doesn't matter so this can be a cheap appetizer if you need it. (don't try black pepper or chili powder, it does doesn't work!) -- posted by eveningtech

This is a delicious extremely easy summery dish comprised of slices of smoked chicken and avocado, drizzled with vinaigrette, that can do as an entree, in place of a salad, or even as a main meal served with a green salad. The amount of ingredients described here would serve 2 people as a large appetiser or a small main meal. -- posted by becy

Easy recipe from Better Homes and Gardens. We didn't think they were hot enough, so we added a mix of Frank's Hot Sauce, Sriracha Hot Sauce, and Cayenne Pepper. -- posted by Chef #817017
