[CnD] Ideas for Slow Cooker Pork Chops

Hi, all. A family member braved the grocery store and got me some bone-in thinly cut pork chops. I have some BBQ sauce, but was wondering what other options I have for cooking them in a crock pot. I also have some cinnamon flavored Coke left over from the holidays.  I don't like the tas

[CnD] seeking chicken dumpling recipes

Morning, I lost one of my sisters-in-law to metastacized lung cancer about 3 1/2 months ago and my brother is looking for chicken dumpling recipes. My sister-in-law didn't write things down. Any one have some good ones to share? Much appreciated. Jeanne _

Re: [CnD] Ideas for Slow Cooker Pork Chops

What about seasoning them with whatever flavors you like and cutting an apple or pear up and just putting the fruit and seasoned meat in the crockpot? You might also add a pepper or onion for flavor. If you really wanted to take it a step further, you could take the "sauce" made from the juices

[CnD] Popcorn on the stove

Hi all, I usually will make popcorn in the microwave. But since I went to on-line shopping this last time, the shopper brought me popcorn in a jar. The popcorn was kernels only. I know you would usually put oil in a pan and then add popcorn. But not sure how safe this is for a blind person on t

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

Hi Larry, I've done it with no problem. I just use a large pot. I find it is easier on a stove with an actual burner instead of a flattop stove. I don't recall if it was the Washington Post or the New York Times who had a piece about doing popcorn on the stovetop. It was within the last month. I'll

Greetings Larry, When I had popcorn kernels I would put some in a brown paper lunch bag. Listen for when it stops popping for two seconds between pops and it is done. Irene R -Original Message- From: Larry Gassman via Cookinginthedark Sent: Thursday, April 16, 2020 12:54 PM To: cook

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

You can pop kernels in the microwave in a brown paper lunch bag. Been a long time since I have done that, but, you need a bag that is all paper and microwave safe. I would just pop it until the popping starts to slow down. -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark On Behalf Of Larry Gass

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

I know this isn't what you asked, but a quarter cup of kernels in a brown paper bag (I buy them for this particular purpose) folded over at the top makes great popcorn without all the sketchy fumes microwave popcorn may have. It's a lot cheaper too, as the bags come in a hundred count for under a b

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

I have made popcorn on the stove and actually I prefer it over microwave popcorn. I would put oil in the pot and the amount depends on how much of the popcorn you are popping. I always place a top on the pot for obvious reasons. I use a pot with 2 handles and I would hold each handle and move t

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

No need to grease the inside. A quarter cup will make about the same amount as a microwave popcorn bag, so depending on consumption level it can feed one, two or maybe even three. Sent from my HAL 9000 in transit to Jupiter -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookingintheda

I bought the bread pan at one of the kitchen stores at the mall. It may have been Williams-Sonoma. It was in the $20 range.

Re: [CnD] Popcorn on the stove

I bought a little microwave popcorn popper from Speak To Me. It comes with a little silicone measure, and I use popcorn that I bought from the store. It makes just enough popcorn for one person. The only negative thing about it is the lid, which doesn't stay on very well. I set the microwave for
