why does day old cooked chicken have that 'left-over' taste?
Comments (41)Studies have shown a great many home refrigerators' temperature are way off. Too warm. I wonder if that's not a large part of it, plus the coating mix. I don't really love chicken but I do roast one about every 6 weeks, primarily for stock, and I don't find that it tastes much different the next day or two. But I also don't like white meat, so that often goes into a chicken curry salad or something. But I have to say that even when I was on Dr. Pat's diet for a while, I broiled the chicken breasts for four days at a time, and they were just about the same on day four as on day 1, even if I got lazy and micro-ed them. My fridge is stuck at 34º, so maybe that helps, and I store in glasslock. I do usually buy Murray's chicken, for whatever that's worth....See MoreHow Do You Fix Your Leftover Food?
Comments (24)Funny you posted this. A few weeks ago the store had whole chickens for 99 cents a pound so we got two of them. Yesterday, I put one in the crockpot (without any liquid added). We had it carved last night and this morning I cut all the rest of it up and now I have 3 bags of diced chicken in the freezer, marked so I know what I want to use them for. One is for chicken salad and has dark and white meat. Another is for chicken and wild rice soup (2 meals plus a lunch) and the third for chicken and noodles, which will be at least two meals, maybe more. So as I figured it, the meat I use in each meal will cost about 35 cents per serving. I just love saving money and hate wasting food. Plus I have all that lovely broth and also made extra by putting all the bones, skin and scraps in a pot to make more broth. We have no problem having the same meal two nights in a row. Harry's the easiest person in the world to cook for. I like your idea for the fries, too, Sue. In restaurants I've asked them not to give me so many fries, but they come premeasured. I usually just leave them, but I'll bring them home from now on. Bet there's a lot of things to do with them--like make them like Wendy's chili cheese fries!!...See MoreHow many 'sayings' can you have in one room?
Comments (7)Are you going to stain or paint your doors? I know you're trying to make the room feel homey while you're finishing things, but I think I'd wait until you get the trim up, finished and the walls painted. I like teacups idea of doing a shelf across your doors. But again I would wait and see how it all looks finished. I think the sayings are a great idea, and doing something across the top near the ceiling either using a stencil or wall words is a different look than the wording plaque in the dining area, so I think it's ok to use both. You have a large area, so you have lots of space to spread them out across. I know it's hard to live in a construction zone - I remember how frustrated I got when we redid our kitchen and ripped out soffits and a dead wall between our eating area and kitchen. But, if you make it look too nice, you'll just delay finishing it because it won't look so bad! Once your trim is up and you pick a paint color (I guess I'm assuming your going to paint something other than the white, so if I'm wrong, please excuse my comments!)the area will look so much different. Then do some wall words, and accessories. You might change your mind and not like what you pick out now when it's all done....See MoreHow Many of You have Ever Eaten...............?
Comments (16)When we were kids we would beg Mom to make us some "English Muffins" Every day that she made home made bread she would take a small ball of dough and flatten it between her hands, sometimes putting cornmeal on the outside but more than often not, fry it in a bit of oil in the old cast iron frying pan. When golden brown and puffed up they were so good with just a bit of butter, or cinnamon sugar, or whatever we wanted to put on them. It was really hard not to burn your tongue as you waited for them to cool enough to eat. Most carnivals or exhibitions have booths that sell the same but are called beaver tails, or elephant ears and have a variety of toppings. The dough may then be sprinkled with things such as granulated sugar, powdered sugar, cinnamon, fruit sauce, chocolate sauce, cheese, maple syrup, whipped cream, tomato sauce, garlic butter, Lemon Juice, honey and butter or a combination of more than one of these. Yummy...once past the lips forever on the hips....:(...See More
