From last week, the best turkey EVAR:
Brine your turkey in Apple cider and salt (1 cup salt per gallon cider), with bay leaves and whole allspice. You want to brine at least overnight, we did for like 24 hours.
Rinse it off, let it dry overnight.
Rub turkey in melted butter, fill cavity with mixture of melted butter, coarsely chopped carrot/onion/celery and whole sprigs of thyme. Put more thyme and veggies in roasting pan under the rack with a cup or 2 of water.
Bake BREAST DOWN at 350 for like an hour. Baste throughout. Flip it onto the back (breast up) after an hour or so.
Boil 2 cups apple cider down to about 1/2 cup (15 mins or so), then add 1 stick butter off heat. Use this to baste the bird until it's done, every 15 mins or so.
That's it. This is EPIC TURKEY. Everyone in my house was like "This is the first time the turkey has been the best part of Thanksgiving!"

The original 1953 Hume/Spry Coronation Chicken used "Curry Powder". The excess turmeric involved in most post-war curry powders is why the stuff was so utterly yellow.Broodwich wrote:QUOTE (Broodwich @ Nov 12 2010, 09:10 AM) im trying to make this but cant find tikka powder anywhere, or even anyone whos heard of it (not even caddy!!)
is there a substitute or something similar you would suggest?
One version of Tikka Powder is as follows:
# 2 teaspoons chili powder
# 6 teaspoons coriander
# 6 teaspoons cumin
# 3 teaspoons dried mint
# 4 teaspoons garam masala
# 6 teaspoons garlic powder
# 3 teaspoons ginger, ground
# 6 teaspoons paprika
@ If whole, brown only whole spices slightly in ghee, careful not to overcook, then grind into powder, mixing with powdered ingredients. If all powdered, just mix.
So I made some pretty good Gingerbread Cake tonight:
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 cup molasses mixed with 1 cup hot water
Mix together sugar with wet ingredients and then with the dry ingredients. Bake at 350degrees.
I also roasted granny smith apples in brown sugar as a side. Whip cream also is good.
2 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves

I *love* whipped cream (the real kind, made with heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract) and pineapple on top of my gingerbread. It sounds odd, but it tastes amazing.Shizoku wrote:QUOTE (Shizoku @ Dec 18 2010, 11:08 PM) So I made some pretty good Gingerbread Cake tonight:

A great easy dish that I do fairly often is sort of a panninii style chicken tortilla.
Fry up chunks of chicken breast
Once the chicken is nearly done add some bell peppers at a fairly high heat to sear them. Other veggies probably would work, but I usually just keep it simple.
Add either chili pepper or a taco mix(I buy this stuff in bulk, it tastes the same as the packet and costs a lot less). Oregano goes well too, oddly enough.
Remove from heat once peppers are seared and chicken is cooked.
take tortillas grate some cheese in them, add chicken mix and wrap like a burrito.
Place the wraps on a frying pan and place something heavy like a plate on top of it. A paninii grill would probably work better, but alas I am broke. Flip over and do the same to the other side till cheese is melted and both sides are crispy.
Serve with mexican fixings like salsa sourcream guac. It's weird, it has literally identical ingredients to my quesadillas, yet it tastes dramatically different.
Could probably add cilantro into the mix and it would taste good, pretty flexible, easy and good tasting.
