instant noodle eaters...and that sesame oil packet

I always taste the oil in that little packet. Half the time it is just tasteless oil, so I discard it. Especially if it's in one of the more obscure of the million types in the Asian store.

lotsa cherries

Yes, been cooking in a bit of cherry juice and saving in the fridge for mostly Greek yogurt topping. Havent added any pectin. I am not a canner. That gets too close to hoarding for a family of one! Good thing cherries are seasonal. If only peaches were better this year, now that could be a diversion.

Bulgur cooking technique

I just cover the dry bulghur by about 1" of super hot tap water (ours is good) and let it sit for a couple of hours. Then I turn it over into a strainer and let it sit 'til the excess has run out. Ready to use. Perfect texture.

Has anyone tried making corn crepes?

Joyyy, you're a genius. Think I'll try with masa as well. Dueling crepe pans.

Has anyone tried making corn crepes?

Yes, I want to be able to hold and fill and roll to eat by hand or fill and roll, and top with a sauce. And, I'd like to be able to make a batch, and have some for the next day out of the fridge. Soft, like a crepe, not hard and crackly like a leftover corn tortilla. Perhaps, though, that is the nature of corn itself. Cornbread is always hard out of the fridge.

Crystal/Cellophane/Mung-Bean Noodles TOO AL-DENTE

I have noticed s difference in the long, dried stringy ones being chewy and the small, smooth bundled ones being slippery and soft.

Wheat Berries

Wheatberries are very versatile. I cook them, in just plain salted water, drain well, then refrigerate. I simply use them throughout the week in various combinations with raw veggies, tossed with dressing, as in tabouli, pr warm, mixed with freshly steamed veggies as a side dish. You can also throw in nuts and/or dried fruit pieces to jazz it up. My favorite combo is wheatberries, raw carrot and broccoli, raw cashews and golden currants, a shake of Penzey's Parisian herbs, tossed with a tiny bit of olive oil and vinegar or lemon. Tasty, super low-cal, and nutritious.

how much cream cheese is too much?

I think half of America is on a pseudo diet. They like to order fattening things and scrape half of it off. They should tear the bagel in half, too. Or would that be a quarter?

what to do with leftover lettuce?

I like to stir fry it very quickly and use it as a bed for steamed or fried chinese dumplings.
