Jellied Eels is a "Regional Speciality", that is, food that USED to be eaten by really poor people, that now is only served to tourists, and the occasional oddball.

Every time he did, I had to hold myself back from waking everyone in the house.. That just made it so much harder to watch him eat like a slob!! \o/ Also Shave for god sake.. Face hair doesn't suit him at all.. What we do have in America is, Plenty of idiots like that guy.. hehehehe Everything about him after his very first comment, just has me so irritated with everything about him now.. LOL I would definitely try the eels for sure.. I would probably cut the bone out first so I didn't have to work around it, like mr slob did.. hehehe I'm probably being way too hard on him, but he just kept doing it! hehehe 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 (edited) Peeve: I went veggie two decades ago, just because my body decided it wanted that, and I didn't have too many problems finding things to cook for myself. Lately though I've had to rely on prepared meals, and anything I could eat was in rather short supply, owing to lack of choice and the supermarket's own habit of not having them in stock for weeks at a time. Unpeeve: In desperation I ordered some meals with meat in them, and found that on the whole they're being tolerated well. I have to assume that my body has adjusted over the years. Peeve: Body, why didn't you tell me this before? Edited December 23, 2023 by Garnet Psaltery Typo, 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I don't love a good sweet cheesecake but I LOVE the savory. If it has cheesecake in it's name, that's the line I'll be in.. Also the different kinds of quiche I'll be trying tomorrow at a Christmas brunch we've been invited to.. They want me to make my Avocado egg salad, so I'll be doing that later today.. I had to time it, because Avocados are tricky in getting them just right for egg salad.. it's like each batch has it's own ripening time on it and you really have to pay attention the second they have any softness to them at all.. I know most foods don't start out from America, But I love when those recipes land in the right hands no matter who puts them on the table or where they are from.. hehehe If someone can cook, they can cook.. It's not the country that makes dishes great.. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love Zhaoying Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 Peeve: All this talk of "Eel". I DO actually like the "smoked eel" as used in Japanese sushi. It is actually cooked (as that type of eel is toxic if not prepared properly). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this morning, I made vegetarian "anchovies" by soaking sliced mushrooms in Marmite. Turned out great! I used to make a mushroom pie that was a combination of recipes from The Medieval Kitchen cookbook that a vegetarian friend loved. When people didn't eat meat on Friday in Medieval and Renaissance Europe, they invented good vegan and vegetarian alternatives, such as almond milk. Saute brown mushrooms in olive oil and wine (or a little vinegar if you don't use wine). Season with nutmeg, coriander, powdered ginger, black pepper and salt. I then put the sauted mushrooms into a pie with mild white cheese. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
