• 83 dealing with kidn

    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to DALE SHIPP on Friday, October 11, 2019 13:28:36
    kidney cavities toward the bottom of the back. They are
    generally a by-product and get cooked along with the rest
    of the bird. The flavor is sort of like tainted liver. I
    like it; ymmv.
    I did not use to know that they were kidneys since they bear no physical resemblence to any other kidney I had ever seen. I believe that you are
    the one who told me what they were. In any case, it has always been one
    of my favored part of the chicken since I was a pre-teen, along with the oyster.

    There was some discussion about that here near on a
    quarter century ago. My father, whom subsequent bitter
    experience tells me made up stuff whenever he didn't know
    something (not unlike the rest of us, but I do resent it),
    taught me they were ovaries, but in fact they are kidneys.

    My sister and I used to call them, along with the real
    ovaries, assorted glands, and the stray lung piece,
    "livery stuff" and shared them carefully, one piece for
    you, one piece for me.

    This sounds like a decent combination of ingredients, but the quantities
    are just all wrong. Six sandwiches with a total of 1/3 baked ham??

    An ounce a person definitely seems a self-abnegating if not
    a Lenten dish. But there are many for whom an ounce of meat
    would be a substantial treat (he said righteously, having
    put away half a pound of pork for his midmorning snack).

    Plus, six times 1 tablespoon of sauerkraut is a lot less than 3/4 cup.

    Maybe; 6 Tb is 3/8 c, but for someone with powerful hands and
    delicate tastebuds, squeezing all the liquid might bring the
    numbers and the palatability within range.

    Title: Grilled Ham, Swiss, Sauerkraut
    Categories: Sandwich
    Yield: 1 servings
    2 tb Butter, melted
    Coarse-grained musard
    12 sl Cocktail rye bread
    1/4 lb Swiss, shredded
    3/4 c Drained sauerkraut, squeezed
    Dry
    1/3 lb Baked sliced ham

    Heat oven to 425F. Bake sandwiches about 10 minutes, flip, return to
    oven and bake 5 minutes more. Serve warm or at room temperature.

    That was that Stephanie person, wasn't it? Rumor was that
    she didn't actually cook. This guy, on the other hand, is
    said to have run a chip shop -

    Title: Peanut Milk:)
    Categories: Ron's, Beverages
    Yield: 1 litre

    125 g Peanut Butter 4oz
    1 l Water 1 3/4 pints
    3/4 ts Salt 1/2ts
    Sugar optional

    From Ron's Plaice in Blackpool:)
    A rich drink and a good substitute for cocoa or hot chocolate as a bed
    time drink. Serve either hot or well chilled. Imperial measures are
    the second set. 1/2 ts = US. 3/4 ts = Imperial.

    Put peanut butter into a pan and add the water very gradually, stirring
    steadily, until the two are thoroughly blended. Bring to the boil and
    cook over a medium heat for around 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    Add salt (and sugar if desired). Beat with an egg whisk or egg
    beater just before serving. Serve 'piping hot' or 'ice cold'.

    3/4 c Drained sauerkraut, squeezed
    1/3 lb Baked sliced ham

    I just noticed upon re-reading this that small little cocktail rye
    bread is called for. The slices are tiny so the amount of both
    cheese and ham sounds about right. These are delicate little
    appetizers and not a hearty lunch course. I do agree that there's
    twice as much sauerkraut as would be tasty.



    Cheers

    ... Like Gerald, Lord Sandwich, had...? Yes, a plate of Geralders please.

    Replying mostly to let people know that I'll be away the next couple of
    days, so no messages for a while... and the time I thought I had to do
    some tonight was taken up by my sister calling me from MD instead...

    I quite like them as well... grabbing them when they show up in fried
    chicken and such... ;)

    She had the right idea, too... :)
