"Love 'em."

I love Swedish Meatballs with gravy on top of linguini.

Disclaimer: I would eat month-old-overboiled-set-out-to-fester spinach over linguini.

“It’s an Earth food. They are called Swedish meatballs. It’s a strange thing, but every sentient race has its own version of these Swedish meatballs. I suspect it’s one of those great universal mysteries which will either never get explained or which will drive you mad if you ever learned the truth.” G’Kar, the narn ambassador on babylon 5

You missed the lingonberry jam and pickles.

“Didn?t realize there was a Cuban bread.”

Really? I guess I take it for granted living in Florida.

I’m lazy. Just get some frozen from Ikea, and use those instead of making them.

Adjust it as I don’t have any hard and fast measurements. I sometimes add Gravy Maker so the sauce is darker. It’s so simple to make esp. if you make meatballs ahead and freeze.

Btw, one of the greatest cookbooks of all time is:

http://www.amazon.com/Street-Food-Rose-Grant/dp/0895943905/ref=sr_1_12?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1292160328&sr=1-12

Cheap book, only printed in paperback far as I know. I have a copy and I love it.

That cookbook looks interesting!

This is one of my favorites - it’s splatter stained, paper clipped and dog eared at my house:)

BTW - my Cuban bread came out excellent! And I’m not a baker.

It would be great to have a weekly recipe thread here - like the weekly gardening thread :)

Sort of a “What are you cooking this week” thread.....

Sounds like my kind of cooking...then again, there’s not much that isn’t! ;) Thanks for the tip.

I’ve never kept a ping list before - I guess you just store the list on your homepage?

It would be interesting threads I bet.

So what should it be titled?

This is the Gardening thread:
Weekly Gardening Thread – 2010 (Vol. 45) December 10

Maybe just “Weekly Cooking Thread”

Friday probably is the best day to post a thread - before the weekend(most food shopping)

If a ping list is started, I’d like to be on it. One of my favorite topics is eating, so that means cooking is an important means to that end.
