My New German goodies
Comments (8)Happy New Year, Livebetter! Hmm, wonder why the Persil Gold is not on the website. It says Made in Germany on the bottle, and the entire bottle is auf Deutsch...No English/French/Italian, etc... I think Persil smells a tad better, but Dash smells clean. I did 2 loads with Dash, and the clothes look and smell great, but for some reason my stainless wash drum in my Miele looks murky & coated. The ingredients on the Persil and the Dash are very similar, and both have Phosphates. Don'd know why the Dash made the stainless look murky, almost greasy looking. Persil and Ariel (both made and purchased in Germany) leave my Stainless spotless!! I hope I can use the Dash...it smells great, clothes looked amazing and I have what looks to be like 10 liters :) Still really think Vaska Herbatergent is great, especially for towels and sheets. In fact, I think I will always use it for my towels and sheets. Perfection. Great on clothes too, but my son had some red clay on his school pants, and the Vaska did not remove it. Made it a lot better, but still there. Clorox Green Works, Persil or Ariel take red clay away quickly. Again, Happy New Year! Larsi...See MoreFrench terms
Comments (47)AD, I'm sure your point in posting this video was nothing relating to my reaction to it, but I feel very strongly about it. My comments to follow are aimed at the people who made the video, not you. Yes, it's true, there are dialectical differences between standard American English and some subcultures. I noticed these were African Americans who were being lampooned. Judge Judy speaking in a schoolmarmy way to those appearing on her show, trying to correct them to standard language, as opposed to their dialects, is one thing, but Comixbear putting the clips together to make fun of people expressing themselves the way everyone in their culture does is somewhere between nasty and racist. And ask pronounced "aks" is a standard variation that dates back hundreds of years in England. "Ask" won around the time they standardized spelling. It's not the only fossil of Old England that can be found regionally in the U.S. You did give me a hint as to what IC has been asking about the differentiation. Canapé (which originally meant bed), in my vernacular, is a kind of layered tidbit, akin to an open faced sandwich. Traditionally they were made on bread, though they're often made on crackers now, or slices of potato or other vegetable. Often there is a spread or piped soft ingredient, which helps hold on other topping(s). Hors d'oeurve, as I've always known it, can be passed, served with small plates on a buffet, or presented at table. They are 1-2 bites, and can be just about anything. Recently trendy ones include lamb lollipops (thinly sliced rib lamb chops just the bone's width wide, and trimmed down to just the eye), any meat on a skewer or even caprese salad on a skewer, risotto arancini, shots of soup or gelee, and cups carved out of vegetables with some kind of paste inside. Ten years ago, Chinese spoons were popular for serving things with broths and sauces, but they're very awkward to eat and aren't seen so much. There were also a lot of dim sum and satays (whence the popularity of skewers). In the 1990's it was all about stuffed endive spears and caviar, which were '60's reboots along with martinis. The '80's were all over the map, but I saw a lot of mini quiches and pinwheel sandwiches. Before that were all the '50's/'60's stars, many of them slightly Asian or questionably French: Rumaki (bacon wrapped around marinated chicken livers wrapped around a water chestnut on a toothpick), crab rangoon (crab and cream cheese filling fried in a wonton wrapper), and stuffed choux paste puffs (savory) or cheese puffs, were iconic. It was also the era of the cheese ball and pigs in a blanket (mini hotdogs wrapped in dough and baked), however. I agree that when one says "appetizer" or "starter", it's meant to be served at the table, before the entree (American meaning) or main. American meals often don't have a separate appetizer or fish course, and start with soup and/or salad....See MoreAnyone have experience with the German nursery "MyRoses" ?
Comments (23)I agree with Nik's experience very much, and whilst Bierkreek have been helpful and in English, I also don't like their website too much. As for 'My Roses', I am wondering if there is something wrong with me, as when I check on their site, I cannot see any roses listed, just a lot of information in German. To find which roses they have, I had to look on HMF and see they have 500 or so, but I cannot see any of this on their website, which would disappoint me. Maybe I am missing something. I think, over here, we are blessed with so many suppliers, Beales and Austin's have such a large inventory to satisfy most people, so only the collector or the curious would want to bother with ordering roses from the Continent. However, there is one that I have not tried so far, but really want to give them some of my business, because they have an excellent website, everything is clear and precise, their FAQ section tells me all I need to know, payment is simple by Paypal or Card... and their delivery charge is very small and covers the entire order for container roses. They also have a good selection of roses that I cannot get here, from all the major breeders, like Guillot, Kordes, Tantau.. etc.. They are actually a Swiss nursery that sends out from near Bremen in Germany, called Lubera.. they also supply via Amazon. A quote from their FAQ: ''You are a Swiss nursery - where do the English texts come from on your homepage? As mentioned, we write and speak English. But honestly not as good as the texts that are posted on our website. We work with a professional translator who specialises in horticulture and helps us with our English''. They really deserve my business, I do hope to order something from them this season. I wonder if anyone here has already ordered from them...?? Lubera...See MorePre-Italian Cooking
Comments (8)I've researched this before, and read about the impact that the new world had on cuisine throughout Europe. So many of today's dishes would not be possible without tomatoes, potatoes, chili, corn, bell peppers, squashes and the like. But pasta and flatbreads existed in the early modern times, and a rich variety of flavors from spices and herbs. And it seems like, from the link above, it was healthier with more fresh fruit and veggies. What was interesting about the Herculeum link (I skimmed the video) was the use of spices, including black pepper from India. I know garum was popular in Roman times, and the rich use of herbs and spices probably made for some flavorful food compared to other regions in Europe....See MoreLars
