I used to make a sweet potato souffle with raisins inside and the melted marshmallows on top. I really liked it, but a lot of people don’t. (The same people like sweet potato fries, though.)

I think it would be good with regular potatoes, too.

Carlos

I’ve been on FR since the late 90s under a different screen name. (I found a conservative news web site on Prodigy in the early 90’s that may have been Jim’s!) ​

Saved some of Carlos’s threads on my laptop but that laptop died.

The cooking threads have been my favorite on FR all these years so thank you so much!!!!!

Do you know what Carlos’ handle was on FR?

Oh wow! You just brought back a memory long forgotten.
My mom took the extra leftover breadcrumbs after making meatballs, added an egg, made breadcrumb patties, and then fried them. They were so good!

I was looking through the bread recipes on the site you posted earlier and found this little gem. I've never heard of it before and watched the video. What an amazing way to make a filled bread! I'm going to give it a try when I have some time.

I wish I could edit my post. I should have eggs in that bread ball mixture. I usually add about two eggs to a breadcrumb mixture that makes about 70+ balls.

I like that too. At first glance at a picture of it, I couldn’t figure out how they did it :-)

Thought it was Chef Carlos. Been searching for an old thread for the last hour (It’s that or clean the kitchen!) and haven’t found anything.

Look more tomorrow.

ALWAYS find some reason not to clean the kitchen.

(Even better, the bathroom...)

We’ve had those quite a few times this year. They’re the regular ones.

I think the box I have is over 10 years old!

Figured out how to make Peruvian chicken.

But still working on yellow sauce. Closest one is made out of saltines and milk. (The only reason I have saltines!) Gotta figure out how to add the tang.

When I look up peruvian chicken with a yellow sauce, so many different recipes come up. Is it anything similar to this?

These look so amazing..

Japanese Cheese Tarts

Ingredients
Tart Shells
8 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup powdered (icing) sugar
1 egg yolk
Cream Cheese Filling
1 cup cream cheese
3 tablespoons powdered (icing) sugar
2/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon corn starch

Instructions
Tart Shells
Cut the butter into small cubes. Combine flour, sugar, and butter in the mixing bowl and beat them with an electric whisk until crumbs form.
Whisk the egg yolk into the mixture, and knead them into a dough with your hand. Keep kneading the dough until smooth.
Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C).
Take a small portion of the dough and press it into a 2.6-inch tart mold evenly. Cut off the excess dough from the edge with a knife and prick the bottom with a fork. (Repeat the exact instructions for the rest of the eight shells.)
Bake the shells for 15 minutes.
Let the tart shells cool completely before removing them from the molds.

Cream Cheese Filling
Soften the cream cheese at room temperature and mix well with sugar in a bowl. Mix and fold the ingredients constantly until smooth with a spatula. Add the heavy whipping cream to the mixture in 3 portions, keep stirring until well combined. Finally, add the corn starch and mix well.
Fill the piping bag with the mixture and pipe it into the shells. Freeze the cheese tarts for 4 hours until firm.

Bake The Cheese Tarts
Preheat the oven to 410°F (210°C)
Brush the frozen cheese tarts with egg wash. Egg wash the frozen cheese tarts before baking.

Bake the cheese tarts for 15 minutes.

I haven’t made it for awhile but the basics are milk, saltines and Aji Amarillo paste. It’s close. It just needs tang.

Got a bunch of chicken legs for 80¢/# so will probably start working on it again.

Knew a woman for Peru who told me the recipe for yellow sauce varies with every family!

BTT for the holiday - what are you trying new this year?
We always dry brine our bird. This year we are doing the same but spatchcocking it. I have done it before with chickens but have not done a turkey.

That question is for everyone and Happy Thanksgiving to all.

I also just found this amazing looking recipe. Acorn squash stuffed with lump crab. https://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/stuffed-acorn-squash-crab-easy-fall-entree

I will try frying some bacon and adding it to my beans.

This Thanksgiving I am going to my son's house which is close by.

I hope you and our other Freepers have a great Thanksgiving. -Tom
