[gcursor]

So if you had to name the BEST thing that you can cook, what would it be?

p.s.

i'm exempt from this question because I really can't cook..at..all. i can burn JELL-O..

I have 2 favorites that are great with a number of people. They both can be cooked prior to people getting ready to eat and they can serve themselves so you can socialize instead of sweating over a stove while your guests are having fun. They are Italian Oven Stew served over noodles and, of course, being a Bostonian, Lobster Newburg served over toast points. Add salad, bread, and wine and you'll come out like a Julia Child replacement.

If anyone is interested, just PM me.

 

P.S. Burnt jello may be a new gourmet dessert. After all, we have flaming Alaska (no Sarah Palin jokes needed)

Not much of a cook here, but I do pretty good at rice and bean dishes.

Pork tenderloin with a sauce of balsamic vinegar and orange marmalade. Pork tenderloin has fewer calories and fat than a chicken breast. Grilled in about ten minutes and is superb.

 

Baked stuffed shrimp - and not stuffed with crab meat!!

 

A Swedish Torte for dessert.

Jambalaya and for desert a cream cheese pie in graham cracker crust. This thread is getting me very hungry (except for the brussel sprouts, sorry Steven just not my thing)

Gee, it's a tough question. I like most everything I cook, which is why I'm the size I am. I guess the best things I cook are osso buco with a saffron risotto (which I only make during the winter) and a duck breast with balsamic reduction and roasted figs (which are coming into season soon). I grill the duck on a little hibachi out on the fire escape. Ah, life in New York.

[josephga]

also banana pudding I sometimes make one every week

So if you had to name the BEST thing that SOMEONE ELSE can cook, what would it be?

 

Green Bean Stir-Fry. It's almost a religious experience!

Moqueca de peixe -- a delicious and easy Brazilian fish and shrimp stew in coconut milk. Chocolate cheesecake. Jambalaya.

As a Michelin Starred Chef I excel at cooking a great many things, however, since I am also an Pilot for Lufthansa Airlines, a Nobel Laureate, and a Famous Actor, I rarely have time to cook anymore, so I just have one of my seven private chefs do it for me:p:p:p

[justaguy]

Louisiana meat pies and Red Velvet Cake (the real one, not what’s found in most cook books)

[Poolboy21409]

You PROMISE?
