• 5 gritty was weather was, cotd.

    I'd assume, as a fan of hominy, that there would be lumps.
    And likewise I wondered how 35 minutes would do for the stuff,
    unless the recipe writer was thinking of grits, so why didn't
    she say GREE-YUTS?
    I'll have to look at that and try it some day.

    Grits in cornbread might make sense to me. Big old
    pearl hominy, I can't see it.

    And then why was someone from Concord MA using hominy anyhow in
    the first place? Or Colorado, for that matter?
    Maybe she was a transplant?

    Maybe - or a culinary adventurer out of her main stream.

    Title: Italian Chocolate Nut Cookies
    Categories: Bakery, Italian, Cookie, Vegan, Holiday
    1/2 c Margarine
    2/3 c Cocoa, unsweetened
    2 c Light brown sugar
    1/2 c Water
    2 1/2 c Wholewheat flour

    I'd sacrifice the veganism in favor of butter, or
    perhaps substitute light oil; everyone here knows
    what I'd do with the wholewheat.

    1 1/2 ts Baking powder
    2 ts Cinnamon
    1 ts Cloves or allspice
    1 c Finely chopped almonds
    1 c Raisins

    Interesting. I envision something heavily healthy
    and nourishing, not so much enjoyable.

    Ah.

    ... Would one who dislikes hominy be a antonym?

    I'd think he'd be more of an antony.

    Macau-Style Pork Chop Sandwich
    categories: celebrity, main, lunch
    servings: 4

    4 boneless pork rib chops or cutlets
    1/4 c soy sauce
    1/4 c Chinese rice wine
    1/4 c black vinegar
    1 Tb sesame oil
    4 garlic cloves, peeled and coarsely chopped
    1 Tb five-spice powder
    1 Tb dark brown sugar, packed
    1 lg egg
    1/2 c all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 c panko bread crumbs
    salt and pepper
    2 c peanut oil for frying, more as needed
    8 sl white sandwich bread, toasted
    Chili paste, for garnish

    Pound the pork 1/4" thick.

    Whisk together the soy sauce, rice wine, vinegar, sesame
    oil, garlic, five-spice powder and sugar. Place pork in
    a sealable container with the marinade. Making sure
    everything is coated, seal and refrigerate 1 to 12 hr.

    Remove chops from marinade and brush off garlic. Beat
    eggs in a bowl with 1 Tb water and place flour and panko
    in separate bowls. Season the flour with salt and pepper.

    Add the oil to a heavy-bottomed frying pan and heat on
    medium-high. Test the oil with a pinch of breadcrumbs and
    make sure they sizzle. Add the chops to the oil. Do this
    in batches if necessary. Cook 5 min per side until crisp.
    Remove the chops and drain on paper towels. Season
    lightly with salt.

    Serve on toasted bread with chili paste.
