    Also somewhat related Chinese rou si and rou gan.
    Some brainstorms are potentially universal... ;)
    It's likely circumstances (large animal, not enough
    people to eat it all at once) are universal.
    Thus leading to the potential universal brainstorms... ;)

    Our circumstances are more common than most
    people realize; anyhow, our uniquenesses lie in
    other things than what people generally focus on.
    The faux paradox "you're unique just like everyone
    else" is a major stupidity and is based on a lack
    of knowledge of grammar anyway. "You're unique,
    just as everyone else" might make more sense but
    can't be perceived as witty.

    If you'd said pemmican, I'd have said "maybe,"
    That was one lurking just off the tip of my tongue...
    Though aside from the berries, pemmican is mostly
    the same as rou song (I mistyped rou si).
    It would appear that lots of foods are the "equivalent of x's y"...

    Adjective noun sometimes with adjective noun.

    Organ building and restoration has plenty of heavy
    lifting and would have been a very nontraditional
    profession for a woman.
    But she was certainly up to it... and a person I enjoyed working with...
    I ended up being her primary assistant... :) She was based in
    Michigan...
    I didn't mean to imply that it was unfit for a woman,
    just nontraditional.
    Ok... :)

    Actually, women's inclusion into such professions is
    a pretty modern thing. The maker of one of my violins,
    Marilyn Wallin, was the first female president of the
    Violin Society of America, just a couple decades ago.
    She's currently first vice-president.
    So she's keeping her hand in... As we've discussed before, though, there've been unsung women throughout the profession for ages...
    Keeping her hand in in a fairly big way - she's one
    of the most respected and successful instrument makers
    in the country.
    That's good... :)

    It's a very physical profession, requiring both
    brute strength and a lot of fine-tuned close
    work. No reason why a woman can't do it, but
    before her, practitioners were few and far between.

    Well, I can't bring any examples right to my
    fingertips (not being a regular viewer), but I'm sure
    the Shipps and other watchers could come up with some
    pretty tame foods described as bizarre on the shows.
    I believe I've heard some discussion thereof from time to time.. :)
    Head cheese
    categories: not so bizarre, offal, pork
    Indeed not exactly bizarre.... something I've enjoyed right along...

    One man's bizarre is my lunch.

    Along the same lines as the occasionally threatened opening of a
    can of
    LaChoy chop suey...? (G)
    Or was it chow mein - again a subject I'm not really
    invested in.
    I thought it was the chop suey... and there wasn't really any interest
    in doing so... :)
    Both being more bizarre than the above.
    Perhaps... ;)

    Kind of odd if not exactly bizarre -

    We have our similarities, and also our uniquenesses... :)

    Probably a combination of being discouraged from even trying, and not
    thinking of it as an option....

    True.... and your bizarre is probably someone else's lunch... ;)

    Title: Oatmeal Wheat Herb Bread ABM
    Categories: Cyberealm, Kooknet, Breads
    Yield: 1 loaf

    Doesn't look that odd or bizarre to me... although I'd not be making it
    in a bread maker.... And in Ruth-fashion, I'd probably either use mostly
    or all whole wheat... I've also never added gluten to any bread I've
    made... Never made something quite like this, but could have, given the opportunity and thought... ;)

    1 tb Active dry yeast
    1 1/2 c Bread flour
    1/2 c Gluten
    1 c Whole wheat flour
    1/2 c Quick cooking oatmeal
    1 tb Sugar
    3 tb Dry milk powder
    1/4 c Honey
    1 tb Olive oil
    1/2 ts Salt
    1 1/2 tb Marjoram

    Baking it wthout the machine, the order'd probably be different... ;)
