Re: [CnD] Question About Sprouting Broccoli Microgreens

Ah that's nice. Good luck. We had some really strong broccoli sprouts 
from our our indoor garden. We don't have that any more. He's grown them 
before that though, we've never grown mung bean, but we sure love to eat 
them.


He loves Asian food, and I love Mexican ... well I love any kind of food!

Hi, Guys.
I put 2 tablespoons of broccoli microgreens and a cup of water in a
mason jar and let it sit overnight. I drained it, but the seeds don't
seem to have taken on any of the water to bulk them up. I added more
water and put the sprouting lid back on, and they're sitting in my
pantry cupboard.

Is the process for sprouting broccoli microgreens the same as for mung
beans?

Agreed. When you get to the eights, you can stand them up on the flat end and 
guide the knife down with the other hand.

I haven't heard the episode you're referring to, but at least for cantaloupe, I 
cut it in half, then cut each half in half, then cut the quarters in 
half--eight pieces to start. This lets me use a small paring knife to separate 
the rind from the fruit. Scoop the seeds out while you have the two halves in 
bowl form, before you make the two in to quarters. To peel, hold the knife in 
your dominant hand, and hold the fruit skin-side up in the other hand. Starting 
at one end, make a cut between the skin and the fruit maybe a quarter of an 
inch or so in, and follow the curve of the fruit. I am left-handed, so would be 
peeling the fruit in a clockwise motion. Hope this makes sense.

Re: [CnD] Cutting a cantaloupe

2020-09-05 Thread Pamela Fairchild via Cookinginthedark
Peeling a cantaloupe really does require a knife. There is usually a good
eighth inch of green stuff next to the skin that has no flavor and which you
don't want to eat. The peeler is not designed to do that kind of job
efficiently. You could really cut yourself with the peeler attempting to
peel a melon with it, and your hands would be super tired.

I think it depends on how thick the skin is. It isn't thinlike what's on an
apple or pear. I know that watermelon and honeydew are thick-skinned. I
suppose you could try a vegetable peeler, but I never did because my knives
are closer at hand. And I think I've always seen my Mom use a knife, so I
went with that tool when I moved out on my own.

Jennifer:

Actually, I don't remember the name of the recipe swap group exactly.

On ACB radio, on the Community channel, they play groups like this that are
currently done in Zoom meetings.  How I got into this group is that I went
to the ACB Convention this year and found out that there were community
lists for getting into these ACB-related Zoom meetings.  I will have to
write to them before I feel safe giving you the host's information.  But
since these meetings are played on the radio, I figured I could at least
give out the recipes.  I will ask the host how people can get on the list
for the recipes and how people can ask to join the group themselves.

In the meantime, ACB Community Radio has lots of shows that they play on the
station ACB Radio Community.  This station is available in many places,
including on the Victor Reader Stream on the Humanware Playlist.  Old shows
are available in a podcast called ACB Events, where there are lots of
interesting things ranging from cooking to technology to advocacy.  If you
listen to podcasts, I get them on an app called Overcast on my iPhone, but I
know they are on other platforms as well.  With the ACB Events podcast, you

By the way, Cooking In the Dark is now available in Overcast, and I assume
it is in other places as well.

Re: [CnD] Cooking podcasts and ACB

I usually listen to Cooking in the Dark on Acb/radio mainstream. It 
comes on Tuesdays and Fridays at 1;00 pacific time. I think it is on at 
other times, but don't know what they are. I use my Victor to listen. 
Acb/radio is amazing! I'll send the email address when I find it for 
subscribing to the zoom meetings schedule. Every day the schedule is 
sent for the meetings.


Cindy Hollis deserves some kind of award for what she and her team have 
done. They truly are the angels amongst us. Dale and Cheryl and his team 
too! Helping everyone understand that cooking is fun and very accessible 
for those of us who can't see.

In the meantime, ACB Community Radio has lots of shows that they play on the

are available in a podcast called ACB Events, where there are lots of
interesting things ranging from cooking to technology to advocacy.  If you
listen to podcasts, I get them on an app called Overcast on my iPhone, but I
know they are on other platforms as well.  With the ACB Events podcast, you
have the advantage of being able to listen on your own schedule.

By the way, Cooking In the Dark is now available in Overcast, and I assume
it is in other places as well.

Re: [CnD] Cutting a cantaloupe

2020-09-05 Thread Linda S. via Cookinginthedark

Hi Everyone:


Dani, I cut it the same way. Dale said something like: Hold the 
cantaloupe with the stem side down?, and cut almost all the way through. 
Then turn it and do the same thing? Then he moved on to something else. 
Wish I could hear the episode again.


As far as peeling it, I don't think that you could peel it with a 
vegetable peeler as the skin is so thick and rough. So, the way Dale 
talked about it, it sounded so easy, but after that second turn, then 
what? (smile)


On 9/5/2020 5:59 AM, Dani Pagador via Cookinginthedark wrote:

I haven't heard the episode you're referring to, but at least for
cantaloupe, I cut it in half, then cut each half in half, then cut the
quarters in half--eight pieces to start. This lets me use a small
paring knife to separate the rind from the fruit. Scoop the seeds out
while you have the two halves in bowl form, before you make the two in
to quarters. To peel, hold the knife in your dominant hand, and hold
the fruit skin-side up in the other hand. Starting at one end, make a
cut between the skin and the fruit maybe a quarter of an inch or so
in, and follow the curve of the fruit. I am left-handed, so would be
peeling the fruit in a clockwise motion. Hope this makes sense.

More Later,

Linda, I haven't heard the END show, but that has been my experience
cutting
whole cantaloupes.


Cut them in half, then cut the halves in half so you wind up with four
separate pieces.  You can even cut them into smaller pieces if you want
before
you take off the rind and scoop out the seeds.


Smaller pieces make it easier to remove the rind and seeds that way, at
least
it is for someone with smaller hands like I have.

Hi Everyone:


A couple of weeks ago, on a cooking in the dark show, Dale was talking
about
cutting melons, and also about different mixes. He briefly mentioned the
melons, and then went back to the mixes.

His method sounded so much easier and convenient. Can someone go over
that
again? Cut it lengthwise; turn and cut again? Does this make sense
hopefully? Thanks.

[CnD] Poached Salmon, Fancy

2020-09-05 Thread meward1954--- via Cookinginthedark
poached Salmon fancy 

 

Ingredients 

2 lemons

1 large shallot 

2 tablespoons minced parsley leaves, stems reserved

2 tablespoons minced tarragon leaves, stems reserved

½ cup dry white wine 

½ cup water

1 1¾-2 pound skinless salmon fillet, about 1½ inches at thickest part

2 tablespoons capers, rinsed and drained

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon honey 

salt and pepper to taste

 

Directions

 

Cut the bottom and the top off of one lemon, and cut the lemon into 8 to 10
¼ inch slices. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges and set aside. Arrange
the lemon slices in a single layer across the bottom of a 12-inch skillet.
Scatter the herb stems and 2 tablespoons of the minced shallots evenly over
the lemon slices, and add the water and wine.

Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skinned side down on top of the
lemon slices, and set the pan over high heat and bring the liquid to a
simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook until the sides of the
salmon are opaque but the center of the thickest part is still translucent,
11 to 16 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully remove the
salmon and lemon slices to a paper towel lined plate, and cover loosely with
aluminum foil.

Return the pan to high heat and simmer the cooking liquid until slightly
thickened and reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 4 to 5 minutes. Meanwhile,
combine the remaining 2 tablespoons minced shallots, chopped herbs, capers,
honey and olive oil in a medium bowl. Strain the cooking liquid through a
fine mesh strainer into the bowl with the herb mixture. Press the solids to
extract all of the liquid. Whisk to combine and season with salt and pepper
to taste. Lightly salt and pepper the salmon, and remove the lemon slices
from the bottom of the salmon. Place the salmon on a serving platter or
individual plates and spoon the vinaigrette over the top. Place the lemon
wedges on the platter or plates, and serve. Serves 4

You certainly could, but I'm pretty sure it won't be able to gain 
purchase on the fruit, and thus, not cut, at all. You'll have better

I think it depends on how thick the skin is. It isn't thinlike what's on an
apple or pear. I know that watermelon and honeydew are thick-skinned. I
suppose you could try a vegetable peeler, but I never did because my knives
are closer at hand. And I think I've always seen my Mom use a knife, so I
went with that tool when I moved out on my own.

[CnD] Clasic Tuna Sandwiches

2020-09-05 Thread meward1954--- via Cookinginthedark
I'm working my way through the ACB group's fish document a few recipes at a
time.  This one looks very adaptable

 


Classic Tuna Salad Sandwich


 

2 cans (6 ounce each) solid white or chunk light tuna, drained and chopped

1 hard boiled egg, chopped

1/2 cup chopped celery

2 Tablespoons chopped dill pickle or relish

1/4 cup mayonnaise

2 teaspoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning

8 slices whole grain bread, toasted

Lettuce


Directions


In medium bowl, combine tuna, egg, celery, pickle, mayonnaise, lemon juice
and lemon pepper seasoning; mix well.

Line 4 slices of toasted bread with lettuce, top each with 1/4 tuna mixture
and top with the remaining bread.

Re: [CnD] Cutting a cantaloupe

2020-09-05 Thread pegkane52--- via Cookinginthedark
Hi, I want to know what vegetable peeler you are using to peel that 
cantaloupe?? The hide or skin of the cantaloupe or rind rather is so thick I 
don’t know how you would ever manage to use a vegetable peeler unless you have 
something that the rest of us don’t know about, or I don’t know about.
Take care.

I think it depends on how thick the skin is. It isn't thinlike what's on an
apple or pear. I know that watermelon and honeydew are thick-skinned. I
suppose you could try a vegetable peeler, but I never did because my knives
are closer at hand. And I think I've always seen my Mom use a knife, so I
went with that tool when I moved out on my own.

The stuffing for the catfish should freeze ok given the ingredients in it,
but I have not tried it. Another idea would be to halve the recipe if
possible. Then you would be ok, or plan to serve it with fish one night and
maybe chicken the next or within a few days, and avoid freezing it.

Don't think that would work. A small knife, serrated is good, works best.
Sharp knives are always best. You get smoother control and less slippage.

I haven't heard the episode you're referring to, but at least for
cantaloupe, I cut it in half, then cut each half in half, then cut the
quarters in half--eight pieces to start. This lets me use a small paring
knife to separate the rind from the fruit. Scoop the seeds out while you
have the two halves in bowl form, before you make the two in to quarters. To
peel, hold the knife in your dominant hand, and hold the fruit skin-side up
in the other hand. Starting at one end, make a cut between the skin and the
fruit maybe a quarter of an inch or so in, and follow the curve of the
fruit. I am left-handed, so would be peeling the fruit in a clockwise
motion. Hope this makes sense.

The stuffing for the catfish should freeze ok given the ingredients in it, but 
I have not tried it. Another idea would be to halve the recipe if possible. 
Then you would be ok, or plan to serve it with fish one night and maybe chicken 
the next or within a few days, and avoid freezing it.

Re: [CnD] Cutting a cantaloupe

Couldn't you use a vegetable peeler instead of the knife to peel it?

I haven't heard the episode you're referring to, but at least for cantaloupe, I 
cut it in half, then cut each half in half, then cut the quarters in 
half--eight pieces to start. This lets me use a small paring knife to separate 
the rind from the fruit. Scoop the seeds out while you have the two halves in 
bowl form, before you make the two in to quarters. To peel, hold the knife in 
your dominant hand, and hold the fruit skin-side up in the other hand. Starting 
at one end, make a cut between the skin and the fruit maybe a quarter of an 
inch or so in, and follow the curve of the fruit. I am left-handed, so would be 
peeling the fruit in a clockwise motion. Hope this makes sense.

If you partly cut into a mellon then roll that mellon forward some and
continue cutting the mellon unless it's really ripe usually holds
together until the cut you made goes mostly around the mellon getting a
stable cutting area that doesn't suddenly collapse on you and making

Linda, I haven't heard the END show, but that has been my experience 
cutting whole cantaloupes.



Cut them in half, then cut the halves in half so you wind up with four 
separate pieces.  You can even cut them into smaller pieces if you want 
before you take off the rind and scoop out the seeds.



Smaller pieces make it easier to remove the rind and seeds that way, at

Hi Everyone:


A couple of weeks ago, on a cooking in the dark show, Dale was talking 
about cutting melons, and also about different mixes. He briefly 
mentioned the melons, and then went back to the mixes.


His method sounded so much easier and convenient. Can someone go over 
that again? Cut it lengthwise; turn and cut again? Does this make 
sense hopefully? Thanks.

Re: [CnD] Crab-Stuffed Catfish

The stuffing for the catfish should freeze ok given the ingredients in it, but 
I have not tried it. Another idea would be to halve the recipe if possible. 
Then you would be ok, or plan to serve it with fish one night and maybe chicken 
the next or within a few days, and avoid freezing it.

This sounds really good. Only one of us can eat fish/seafood. Do you think the 
rest will freeze for reheating later?

Thanks,
Dani
