FreeRepublic | December 12, 2010 | FReepers

Posted on 12/12/2010 10:55:13 AM PST by libertarian27

There's been a bunch of great recipe threads lately and a few FReepers thought it would be great to have a weekly cooking thread....so here it is!

For this charter thread it would be great to dish out one of your favorite recipes for fellow FReepers to enjoy.

Do you have a great recipe planned for the upcoming week or looking for one? Hopefully this thread will get the cooking juices flowing. Planing on making this a weekly thread with post starts on Sat/Sun

That Christmas Roast Goose recipe sounds awesome, I’ve never prepared goose before but this recipe looks like the perfect reason to Roast one this year - Everything is there - from the brine to the basting syrup to the Cumberland sauce - thanks!

That looks pretty steep to me. IIRC they are harvested after first frost and are cheapest then. Here in Michigan I'd look in farmer's markets. They store well in a root cellar.

My father was given a bushel of them while on strike over thirty years ago. I have only recently been able to eat them again.

Your post got me thinking if someone had already created a good free recipe database. This software says it allows you to cut and paste recipes into the database. Not sure how good it is. Has anyone used this?

In theory if you saw a recipe on a FR thread, you could copy the text from the posting and paste it into your database and and add any key words that you wanted.

This beer bread recipe looks wonderful! I used to have a recipe for beer bisquits but cannot find it. I’m gonna try this tonight though to go with the stew.

The Beer Bread is definitely a Keeper!

I’ve been buying that bread mix through those ‘Tastefully Simple’ parties people have - AND, there it is! The tastefully simple recipe, for simply pennies on the dollar of those darn boxes!

All this time, argh ;)
