Happy New Year to All!

Happy New Year 💥❣
That looks so yummy ❤
Those Blini look pretty neat. I may give that a try.
They are like tiny crepes.
I’ve only had one caviar experience and found them to be extremely salty. I only took a nibble. No more than that.
Are they all this way, or do other caviar have a different impact?
We made Chinese dumplings for new years today.
And ro you!
Why don’t you post your hopping John recipe on the Monthly Cooking Thread?
I have no idea what it is, but I think it’s some New Year’s dish with black eyed peas??? Enlighten me.
There’s another Russian version of the pancake called a ‘blintz’, which is more like a crepe.

I don’t mind the ‘salty’. But there are lots of varieties. You just have to experiment.
The Capelin that I first enjoyed is apparently the same stuff that the Japanese call ‘masago’, which you routinely find on sushi - or California Roll - in the US.
We used to make really good pork ones, with the ‘bug sauce’ for my brother.
I love them. You probably don’t need it, but I’ll post the recipe next week.
Is there a ping list for this thread topic?
We used pork, bok choi, bean sprouts, shitake mushrooms, ginger and carrots.
You have to eat black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day!
My husband’s a Yankee, and he has to have his pork and sauerkraut; but my folks are from Virginia!
This is a really great black-eyed pea recipe, if you don’t want to eat them just plain:

I’ll add you, if you want...
Happy New Year to you & everyone on this most wonderful of threads! And yes, dear Lord, please be a better year!
That looks so delicious. Speaking of caviar.....my mother in law sent us a Christmas box & she made biscotti, cookies, & included other fun food things...... including a jar of faux caviar made with seaweed. It will never be opened😵💫🤔🤔I think I will pass it on & I’m thinking it will get passed around a lot😜Gross!
Happy New Year! Thank you for the always-enjoyable and helpful threads!
I cannot make tamales, the traditional southwest New Year food, so I make a monster pot of chili....
LOL! You mean, passed around like a fruitcake?
(I actually think fruitcake has gotten a bad rep - probably due to Johnny Carson. My husband and I love it.)
There’s something called ‘Texas Caviar’ - if you aren’t into fish eggs - and it’s pretty good:

Tell us your chili recipe!
(I’ve been wanting to learn tamales - I live across the street from a Hispanic market, and I see people buying the stuff for it all the time. Maybe next thread...)
Bug sauce! Boy does that bring back some memories. My grandparents called it bug juice. That was way back in the days when Chinese food — even gloppy bright red sweet-and-sour pork with chunks of canned pineapple — was an exotic rarity.
