Cast Iron Pans: Seasoning Issues

Can't add anything on seasoning but if you stack your pans to store them. Put a sheet of wax paper between pans. It helps prevents rusting. Both of my grandmothers practiced it.

From A Hamburger Today

Recipe: Onion Burgers

I'll have to give it try.

My Grandma's Recipe:

One medium onion to one pound ground round.

Peel and coarsely grate onion. Mix with meat and course ground pepper. Grill. cheese, Kaisers rolls and condiments.

She'd get six burgers to a pound of meat. I get three, sometimes four.

Have Cointreau. Now What?

Hennessey Sidecar

1 1/2 oz. Hennessey Cognac
1/2 oz. Cointreau
1/2 oz. Lemon Juice

Combine all the ingredients in a shaker filled with ice, shake well and strain into a cocktail glass.

A good brandy snifter, a comfy chair by the fire and a window overlooking a snow storm. That's how I like my Cointreau!

Thanks Cybercita! I bought some red and white heart-shaped ramekins for Valentine's Day but had not decided what to do with them....... I will now wonder no more... The Strawberry Pots de Creme will work out perfectly... Thanks again!!!

Another great brunch idea -
Put about a teaspoon of Cointreau to the bottom of a champagne flute, maybe a splash of vodka (optinoal) and then fill with Prosecco. Really nice sparkling cocktail instead of mimosas.

Every year for Christmas morning breakfast, my French stepfather makes crepes and we drizzle Cointreau on them. Perfect.
