• 10 ex LAX still shambolic

    rekindled interest in local flavors of
    interesting beverages, but until the
    energy crisis stalls long-distance
    commerce, i.e., not in my lifetime, the
    big boys will muscle out all such efforts.
    They try, but the niche products will still be out there. Coke is

    There will always be such, as long as there are
    idealists and nostalgics out there who are
    willing to make real what's in their brains;
    but they'll never be common, and they'll always
    be crowded out in the mass market.

    trying with the new fancy Diet Coke flavors that taste more like
    energy drinks, but until they make a good birch beer or cream soda or
    orange dry they'll have a hard time.

    My heart doesn't bleed for Coke.

    Burgundy if that's where the maker was) and local shrooms. Some
    rich
    guy took the idea home and fancied it up. The original meat may
    even
    have been venison.
    The cheapest cuts going were no meat at all.
    Beans probably.

    Beans a la Bourguignonne. I like it. Not.

    Bingo. Buy your cart or truck, find a place to park, and off you
    go.
    And, as happened recently in San Diego, have
    someone hit-and-run it into oblivion. There are
    advantages to a bricks-and-mortar establishment.
    They've been known to drive into those too; it's not as much
    protection as you'd think.

    I suppose, but perhaps there's more incentive
    for motorists, if they value their vehicles at
    all, to avoid a more permanent-looking fixture.

    Fais Do Do Fideua
    About 12 leaves of collard greens
    About 10 leaves of turnip greens (up to you)
    Sounds good to me.

    Sounds tolerable to me, mostly because
    of the addition of pork product.

    3 oz fideo coils
    I'd imagine you could sub in angel hair nests or similar if you had
    to.

    Most likely; I see no reason why not.

    Beans Bourguignon
    Categories: stew, vegetarian, main
    Servings: 4

    2 Tb butter
    2 oz smoked tempeh (opt)
    2 Tb all-purpose flour
    1 Tb olive oil
    3 shallots, diced
    4 carrots, peeled, sliced
    2 cloves garlic, minced
    12 oz cremini mushrooms, quartered
    1 sprig thyme
    1 sprig rosemary
    1 bay leaf
    1 c crushed tomatoes
    1/2 c vegetable broth
    1 c dry red wine
    3 c kidney beans, cooked
    salt and pepper to taste

    In a small bowl, combine the butter and flour with a
    fork, mixing until the two are incorporated. Set aside.

    In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add
    the tempeh, if using, and saute 5 min. Add the
    shallots, carrots, and garlic, and cook until the
    shallots are translucent, 3 to 4 min.

    Add the mushrooms and continue to cook until they
    start to become tender, 4 to 5 min more.

    Stir in the thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, tomatoes, broth,
    and half of the wine. Bring the mixture to a boil,
    reduce heat to low, and simmer until the vegetables
    are tender, 20 to 25 min.

    Add the rest of the wine, beans, salt, and pepper.
    Continue to simmer until good flavor develops, about
    10 to 15 min more. Remove and discard the herbs and
    bay leaf.

    Add the butter and flour mixture to the pan and allow
    the liquid to thicken. Remove from heat and serve.

    As long as they're content to stay small they can do well. If they
    make something really interesting they can also angle to get bought
    out.

    Mine either.

    Me either, but it's cheap. How about TVP Bourguignonne?

    This is true, but some folks don't know the difference between the
    gas and the brake.

    That too. Pork rarely hurts.

    Beans Bourguignon
    Categories: stew, vegetarian, main
    Servings: 4

    2 Tb butter
    2 oz smoked tempeh (opt)

    I'd almost pay to see you eat tempeh. I've cooked with it here and
    there and it's not bad. Not great, but not bad.

    1 c crushed tomatoes

    The other omitted ingredients were necessary to make tempeh and beans
    taste like food? Tomatoes however do NOT belong in a bourguignon.

    1/2 c vegetable broth
    1 c dry red wine
    3 c kidney beans, cooked
    salt and pepper to taste

    This tomato bean stew is either fairly decent or disgusting,
    depending.
