sometimes i don't get over to qtalk enough, when the n&p discussions are fast and furious..... but i still cook, so here is some stuff i've done over the past week....nothing major, but you gotta eat.....

mashed potatoes have always escaped me, so i tried tony's way....

how can you go wrong with 2 cups of heavy cream and 6 tablespoons of butter?


old school mug, new school beer.... not sure the age of the mug... i'd guess 60's???

Smashed taters is one of my weaknesses. Made a batch the other night, and the meatballs just made up my mind for tonights dinner. :clap:

Theres no way I can add heavy cream to anything i cook here without getting killed in my sleep by the wife, so I skipped that and used skimmed milk. Heated up the milk and butter, and added a bit of chicken base(paste, like better than boullion). .. just a small amount to add some flavor, and then ran a large clove of garlic thru a garlic press into the hot milk and let it sit for a minute.. mixed that into the taters and then under the broiler to brown the top a little. well.. they be all gone that night.. :)

and thanks for the meatball pics.. now I have to go out in the rain and get the meatball mix for tonight.. :wacko:
 
Wait a minute...

Are you trying to tell me that you are NOT just a farking liveral N&P troll?:confused:

You can't possibly cook or provide any other meaningful purpose here.:tsk:

Hell, I just assumed you couldn't cook and just had your husband do it for you (see what I did there?) like all those other N&P trolls.

(just kidding, all said with a smile and meant for a friendly laugh, not to poke fun at you):becky::becky::becky:

Looks great!:thumb: I'm a sucker for meatball subs like that!:hungry:

You post some damn fine food when you do post here.:nod:
 
coincidentally, that is the extent of my wife's cooking right there. that never happens, her with a spoon in her hand. hahahaha. :pray:

it didn't last long. i grabbed the spoon after i took the picture. :laugh:
 
I'm pretty sure Poobah isn't the only one running out for meatball mix tonight. As a matter of fact I'm certain of it. :grin:

The taters look great too btw. I will not speak on the fish.
 
That sub is definitely drool worthy. I've had great results with using a potato ricer when making mashed potatoes. I don't use much cream or butter, and the taters still come out great.
 
Looks great! Anymore, I substitute plain greek yogurt for sour cream and that is how I make my spuds, more like potatoes Diane!
 
added some 'seafood salad' into the mix. homemade mayo in under 2 minutes. actually, the mixing took me 40 seconds and the rest of the time was adding the rice wine vinegar, salt, sugar, lemon juice, old bay seasoning and oil.

yes, that is krab (with a k) i'm using along with the crawfish and shrimp. i'd never touch it plain, but it seems to 'work' well with this..... i use only the egg white.

Dude I'm not sure if I should be pissed or thank you. I just got done killing a huge meatball sammy and I'm so full I could puke. So I'm pretty sure I hate you right now, but in a way I want to give you a hug. I'm really torn here. :p
 
I just love it when somebody enjoys a good cook without trying to reinvent the pan. Well done! Tip, if you want smooth mashed potatoes mash them first before adding anything else.
 
Why yes.......yes you CAN cook.

Mashed taters is one of our favorites here too. I also like to doctor mine up a bit with garlic, sour cream, rub or whatever strikes me at the moment.

But I have to say.....i want that shrimp & mud bug salad in my belly NOW!



Good lookin Jason!
