I have really been enjoying the threads on cooking, recipes, and provisioning. It seems to me that this should be set up as a new forum. Phil, don't make me whine, but I am willing to if it will help. Does anyone else share this feeling?

Cooking with wine makes any food taste better you can also put some in the food.

Add one egg, a quarter cup melted cooking fat, and three quarters of a cup of milk, stir by hand until uniformly moistened and place by large spoonfuls in muffin tin. Bake for 25 minutes and at 0830 remove from oven and enjoy with a sinful amount of butter. makes 12

Where's the wine???
You serve that with the ham and cheddar cheese muffins. But a nice cream sherry would be alright with the cranberry muffins.

Alternate breakfast for you and the Admiral.
Prep time 20-25 minutes

Heat oven to 450 deg.
Set table
Dump four generous handfuls of self rising flour in a bowl/pot
Add 1/2 stick of butter or equivalent amount of shortening
Cut shortening into flour with a fork until rice sized lumps are well mixed
Mix in 1/2 of 8 oz. bag of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Stir in cold buttermilk until just slightly sticky
Flour hands and cutting board then flatten flour ball and fold twice
Repeat three times
Flatten ball to 1/2 inch thick and cut out biscuits with...a wine glass
Place biscuits touching on greased baking pan and stick in the oven
Don't forget to make her a snake like her momma did

Next, brown crumbled breakfast sausage and shredded potato in a hot frying pan
Add 4 scrambled eggs, stirring constantly
Check biscuits, remove when golden brown on top
Pour OJ and coffee
As eggs finish, stir in rest of shredded cheese
Divide on to plates and call the Admiral

Don't forget to use the cloth napkins and warm the honey

Don't forget to send the prepayment instalment check to the cardiologist.

I have a friend who is on the new Cardiologists' Diet...




If it tastes good....




Spit it out....

Chris, it would seem that you learned to make biscuits from a southern country girl. My sister-in-law used to make them right in the flour bin that way. A handful of fat(usually lard)in a bag of self rising flour, worked in until it "feels right" add milk, mix by hand and bring out a ball of dough. That's comfort food.
