Serious Eats: madball911's Profile

Honestly, I hesitate before eating any animal, even though I'm not a vegetarian (although I was one a couple decades ago). I always try to keep in mind the life of the animal, how it was raised, how it was slaughtered. I'm not trying to be soap-box-y, just respectful of the animals that give their lives for my dinner.

Cook the Book: 'Gourmet Today'

My first cookbook was The Joy of Cooking. My mother gave it to me when I left for college. I honestly don't think I ever used it.

My grandparents used to go to a Czech bakery and get "salty horns". I don't know what they're called in Czech, and I haven't had one in about 20 years, but I'm tasting one right now in my mind. Flaky, salty, crunchy, soft, buttery. Dammit. I want one so bad.

Green bean casserole, it's not really special but we only have it twice a year. I guess that's what makes it special.

My moms - potatoes, summer savory and crushed crackers, also includes tons of butter and a few onions - I miss stuffing since it started killing people :(

I love homemade warm applesauce!! That and the apple pie are my favorite part of Thanksgiving. I don't like most of the other food including the turkeY!

Thanks for the giveaway!
