Oh my God, so wrong. And I like hot dogs.
Cook the Book: 'New Classic Family Dinners'
When I'm at my parents' house, we get a griddle out on the tabletop and cook up thinly sliced meat and veggies. Then to finish, we do a kimchi fried rice and call it a night!

Dinner Tonight: Miso-Glazed Catfish and Baby Bok Choy
Miso and catfish - what an unexpected combo! Catfish is so American to me that miso never crossed my mind.

Cook the Book: 'Zingerman's Guide to Better Bacon'
Perfect for salt and substance.
Cook the Book: 'The Barcelona Cookbook'
A Spanish chef on an American vacation was a friend of a friend's and made us a great tapas dinner at home. Really made me want to roadtrip around Spain. One day!
Threadless T-Shirt Giveaway: A Piece of Cake
Cheesecake. Any kind really!
Memphis recommendations?
Sweet, I am headed home to Memphis and this thread had some great info!
@laurbelle2 Haven't tried fried pickles at Blue Plate! I can't resist their biscuits and usually stop by before flying back to LA. Love their homey setting.
7th Seoul International Tteok (Rice Cake) Fair, May 8-9
Did I read this correctly? You will be going to Seoul?!
Cook the Book: 'Real Cajun'
Cold pizza while watching Saturday cartoons.
Dinner Tonight: Kimchi Soup with Tofu and Spinach
Love the traditional version of kimchi soup (made with pork or sometimes beef), so would be curious to see how the vegetarian version would be.
@yankeesgal My parents like to add canned tuna occasionally, but I have never warmed up to it much. I haven't tried it in years though, so maybe next time I'm home!
Chopsticks Aid, a Fork Attached to Chopsticks
Hilarious! I am very entertained by this for some reason. Might be the bright blue.
I have a tub of pork floss. Now what?
Hmm, I've never had pork floss. But, it might work on vermicelli or perhaps chopped up to top a salad? Pretty interested to try the stuff now!
Photo of the Day: Panda Head Cake
I might feel a tad uneasy about slicing into that panda head. I'd still eat it, but its eyes are like the Mona Lisa.
Your take on asparagus
I do the natural break and don't bother peeling. Like others, I don't think of not using the tougher parts as wasting.
Photo of the Day: Me And My Egg Roll
Good name indeed! I cannot resist remixing Jay Z and Beyonce's Bonnie and Clyde: "All I need in this life of sin is me and my egg roll..."
Coke and Wine?
I heard about this from a Spanish acquaintance and was also bowled over. But like most things, I guess I'd try it once.
The McNuggetini
At a loss for words and appetite. Good Lord!
Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'
Pasta puttanesca.
Fries with That Salad?
I would actually like to try this salad with fries. Sounds intriguingly tasty as a try-once thing.
In the Battle Between Spam Spread and Libby's Potted Meat, There Are No Winners
I'm a regular reader of The Tasty Island, but I've had to skim over the Spam Spread posts out of self-preservation. I will eat Spam occasionally, but for some reason, a "spread" is just not something I want to think about.
Mellow Mushroom: An Unlikely Southern Tradition
Ah, memories. I ate there a lot during college and always liked the low-key vibe.
Animal Style Fries at In-N-Out Burger
I always get my burger animal style, but cannot bring myself to order my fries that way.

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 :(

Cook the Book: 'Simple Fresh Southern'
Thanksgiving wouldn't feel right without a chunky, moist dressing (or stuffing, though I'm taking Alton's advice to heart and keeping it out of my turkey this year). But I've also a particular fondness for all the orange Thanksgiving sides -- caramelized yam, pumpkin purees, fleshy marrows. Those Squash Half Moons with Butter, Sesame, and Salt sound like heaven.
Cook the Book: 'Simple Fresh Southern'
Cornbread dressing!
