Buffalo Flowers
Well, cauliflowers anyhow. These actually taste alright. But don’t open your food truck based on that till you try one or two. They still taste like cauliflower, just not as much like them, well, when dressed well with a Buffalo wing sauce they don’t. Even the plain version isn’t bad. This, like all of my recipes, can actually be made at home. I sifted through … Continue reading Buffalo Flowers

Bacon, Double cheese, burger wontons
No, I said wontons. My third entry into the fair food will be wontons. Bacon double cheese, burger. The wonton wrapper adds a crisp crunch to this. I made them three ways. Pillows, rolls, & ravioli style. For speed, ravioli wins out. For popper ability, pillows are great. Rolls are a bit harder to make, but dip very, very well. Anyhow this will use up … Continue reading Bacon, Double cheese, burger wontons
Maple Chicken Rolls
The second dish on the home fair/carnival foods is a taste contrast. It is inspired by other combinations, but mostly it is made to be something that you can do at home, which my recipes are all about. You can use any gear that you like.

Use about 3 inches of oil for what you’re cooking, & depending on your pan. A shallow tall sided frying pan with an actual flat bottom is great. If you can’t get … Continue reading Beef strips with Mushrooms-Fried

Time Flies. Not the Yes song, nor the X-File episode, or anything else for that matter. Just time going by, not being wasted. It has been some time since I posted here. The death of a dear friend has made some changes in my life, that’s for sure, but I’ve been in the background, editing the recipes that I’ve posted already, when I managed to … Continue reading Tempus Fugit
A sad, sad time
I want to let everyone know that we have had a sudden non Covid death in the family dynamic here & things are going to be a bit crazy to say the least. As any death it’s quite devestating. I don’t feel quite as creative in cooking right now, so am not really “up to” putting up any recipes or tips. I have a difficult … Continue reading A sad, sad time
Mellow Coffee
Good Morning. There are probably half as many ways to make coffee, as there are recipes for a martini. I’m not going to explain a great recipe, chide you for not following some ancient ritual, or look down at you because you do it a little differently. Find your ground (chuckle), & stand there. I have a pretty set way to make & drink coffee. … Continue reading Mellow Coffee
