Re:macaroni salad with mayo vinegar and eagle brand milk

Hi mejane. There are many variables that will determine how long the salad will last in the refrigerator. A typical rule of thumb is 2-4 days, but results may vary.

Hi Scoby, you should be able to find frozen egg noodles in your local grocery store. They are not as thin as the dried type and will look quite a bit thicker. Do a web search on frozen egg noodles and you should be able to see many products to give you and idea of what to look for in the store.

Hi TomA. I’m afraid RecipeTips.com is not an expert at Sill and Potatis but this might help. Try doing a web search on Sill and Potatis and you will most likely come up with Scandinavian cooking sites. If you are using a browser like Chrome, you can right click on the displayed web page and you should have a menu option to “Translate to English” which should show the ingredients and directions in English. Sorry we couldn’t be more of a direct help, but I hope this gives you some options. Thank you for reaching out and all the best in your herring and potatoes search!

Re:making cornbeef brisket with the beer
Posted: 03/16/2016 7:22:10 PM
I would cook the recipe for the same amount of time regardless of adding any of the vegetables. I would also keep an eye on it to make sure enough moisture remains since the vegetables are absent. Possibly add some water or additional beer if the moisture level gets too low. You don't want to dry out the corned beef brisket. I would error on the side of too much liquid rather than not enough. Best of luck with the recipe change.

Re:deer bologna do I need to wrap in foil?
Posted: 12/07/2015 6:21:13 PM
I believe normal oven baking temperatures would dry out and burn your cheesecloth. Cheesecloth is typically used in cooking where temps are low or submersed in liquid to keep it from drying and burning. If you can seal in the moisture of your bologna with foil it might keep the cheesecloth moist enough to not burn. Possibly try a small sample first to be sure.

I am not sure how well the cabbage would freeze. It would probably affect the texture of the cabbage but I am not sure to what extent. It may still be acceptable. The other ingredients should be fine to freeze. I suggest giving it a try sometime when it wouldn't matter so much if it didn't turn out or sometime when you are making it experiment by freezing a small portion of the dish and see what happens. Sorry I could not give you a more definite answer. Good luck!

Re:What size baking pan do you use
Posted: 01/19/2015 08:00:10 AM
If you would like a thinner bar you could use a 15 x 10 x 1 bar pan or if you wanted a bar that was a little thicker you could use a 9 x 13 pan. The two different sizes will require a different amount of baking time so adjust accordingly. Start checking doneness a couple of minutes before suggested cooking time. Bars are done when a toothpick poked near the middle comes out clean.

Re:Top Loin Beef Roast With a mustard paste recipe
Posted: 01/19/2015 07:49:19 AM
The roast should not need to be turned during the cooking time at 425 degrees. To keep it from getting too done on the bottom I would suggest that when you have finished browning the roast on the stovetop that you place it in the oven with the least browned side down in the roasting pan. Also, make sure you do not have it too close to the bottom heating elements. I imagine it helped with the fat side down but normally I would try to have the fat side up so that the fat drippings would have a chance to soak through the meat as it cooks to add flavor and keep the meat moist. As far as sides to serve, I would suggest a scalloped potato dish, such as our Creamy Scalloped Potatoes, broccoli steamed or boiled to a crisp tender, and a sweet lettuce salad, such as our Spinach and Fruit Lettuce Salad.

Re:Ribeye Roast
Posted: 12/22/2014 09:09:56 AM
I would use the cooking time for the 4 lb. roast and then figure you will have to add a little more time to that. Our cooking time charts show that you should be roasting for approximately 22 minutes a pound. I would start by checking the temperature of the roast after the 4 lb. roast cooking time and if not done, cook for another 15 minutes and check the temperature again. Check the temperature often to be sure the roast does not get over done for your liking. Be sure to take the roast out when it gets to a temperature that is about 10 degrees below your desired temperature. To cook it to rare, we suggest that it should be a finished temperature of 140 degrees, so you would remove it from the oven when its internal temperature reaches a 130 degrees. Then allow the roast to set for 15 minutes before carving. During this time the temperature will rise 5 to 10 degrees. Note: these times are for roasting at 350 degrees F.

I would just eliminate the step of adding the seasoning packet to the chicken broth and just bring the broth to a boil on its own. Layer the dry stuffing mix over the soup and chicken. Then carefully pour the hot broth over the stuffing mix and bake as indicated. I think this will work just fine and you will end up with basically the same results.

Re:Draining Cauliflower
Posted: 12/01/2014 08:32:16 AM
If you are just draining by holding the pans lid on top of the pan and pouring it out the water, some of the water may get trapped. Make sure to drain it well in a strainer, tossing it several times at 1 or 2 minute intervals. You can also place a couple of paper towels in with the drained cauliflower and toss them around to help absorb some of the moisture. Another suggestion would be to try returning the cauliflower to the drained pan, uncovered, and setting on a warm burner for a few minutes. The warmth from the burner will help evaporate some of the moisture but be sure to watch it so the cauliflower does not start to burn on the bottom.

Re:Loaf pan size
Posted: 09/29/2014 08:33:04 AM
I am not sure which meat loaf recipe you are referring to but I am guessing it is calling for 2 lbs. of meat so you should use a 9x5 loaf pan. Most meat loaf recipes call for 2 lbs. but if it only calls for 1-1/2 lbs. of meat you could probably get by with an 8x4 loaf pan. Just be sure the top of the meat loaf is about 1/2 inch below the top edge of the pan to prevent grease from running over the edges. I always place my meat loaf pan on a cookie sheet to catch any grease that might run over the edge. It doesn't generally happen but it has occasionally so I just play it safe to prevent the grease spill in my oven.

I would follow all the directions as stated except rather than placing on a grill I would cook it on the stove in a grill pan or if you do not have a grill pan any frying pan would work. Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes on one side and if nicely browned, turn and cook on the second side for 10 or 15 minutes, until nicely browned. I am not sure about the times so watch carefully and start to test for doneness after 15 minutes or so. You do not want to overcook the turkey so just watch carefully.

Clett, I have a couple of suggestions that might help you when making meatloaf. When placing it in the pan make sure you pack it down tightly. Be sure to cook it long enough and when removing it from the pan use a cooking spatula to loosen the sides; then slide the spatula under the meatloaf to lift it out of the pan. The recipe I use most often is at the following address: http://www.recipetips.com/recipe-cards/u--5579/meat-loaf-with-brown-sugar-topping.asp.

As for dill, I would add two heads of dill per layer. A little more or less of the garlic and dill will probably not make a big difference. Good luck with your pickles.

If you cut down on the amount of cream cheese it will affect the texture and firmness of the bars. How much it affects it will depend on how much you cut down on the quantity.

Re:Cherry Almond Shortbread Cookies
Posted: 12/03/2013 07:33:54 AM
Melanie, I want to apologize for the incomplete instructions on this cookie recipe. The 8 oz. of almond bark is to be divided in half, 4 oz. to be chopped and added to the cookie dough and 4 oz. to be melted with the shortening to be drizzled over the cookies after they are baked. 1 teaspoon of shortening is melted with the almond bark for drizzling. There are not any eggs called for in this recipe. The butter that gets worked into the dry ingredients is enough to hold the dough together. I have edited the recipe so when you go to the recipe now you may have to refresh your page so that you are sure to see the corrected recipe. Again, I am sorry for the incomplete recipe. I hope you will give it a try. The cookies are great and they are nice colorful addition to your Christmas treats.

This is where you would place the bread pudding baking dish in a larger baking dish that has water in it. The bread pudding is then baked while setting in the pan of water. This will help the pudding bake more evenly. Make sure you do not add too much water to the larger pan, which would result in the water overflowing when the bread pudding baking dish is placed in it. If the water comes up about 1 inch around the pudding baking dish it would be sufficient.

To freeze this I would definitely bake it first because I don't know how the eggs would react to freezing. I am afraid that it may cause the dish to have a funny texture. I would bake it, cool it completely and then freeze it. When ready to prepare to serve, take it from the freezer and defrost in the refrigerator. Remove it from the refrigerator about 45 to 60 minutes before reheating. Cover the top with foil and reheat at 300 degrees F. for about 15 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for another 10 minutes. To check to see if it is hot enough, stick the tip of a knife in center of the quiche and leave it there for 15 seconds. Pull the knife out and check the tip of the knife. If it is hot to the touch the quiche should be warm enough. If not, heat for a few more minutes and check again. If you feel the crust is getting too browned, lay a piece of foil over it. Good luck with the recipe, it is a delicious one.

If you don't have strawberry jello you could use a different flavor, such as raspberry or cherry. The jello helps thicken the jam but you could leave it out if you prefer. If you leave it out you will probably want to boil it longer to thicken the jam. While boiling the jam, test it to see if it is sweet enough for your taste. If not, add a little more sugar. You may also want to add a tablespoon or two of lemon juice to brighten the jam.

A 19 pound rib-eye roast is a larger than average roast. I would suggest 15 to 20 minutes per pound at 350 degrees would be a good starting point but it really depends on how well done you want it to be. It is best to determine doneness by using a meat thermometer. Use the following guidelines for the different degrees of doneness: 140 degrees for rare, 145 degrees for medium rare, 160 degrees for medium, 165 degrees for medium well, and 170 degrees for well done. Keep in mind that it is recommended that beef be cooked to a minimum of 145 degrees for safety purposes so only cooking your roast to 140 degrees (rare) is not recommended.

Re:Difference in Cookie Doughs
Posted: 12/24/2012 09:07:49 AM
Spritz cookie dough needs to be soft enough to go through the cookie press properly but firm enough to hold its shape once it comes out of the press. If it doesn't hold its shape, you may have to add some flour to stiffen it up. Another factor that may make a difference when making spritz cookies is the room temperature of your kitchen at the time. If it is too warm it can cause the dough to be too soft. Getting the dough to the proper stiffness is a key factor to making spritz cookies and I think experience in making is a key factor. Good luck with your efforts. Just remember it will be well worth the effort when you are eating those delicious cookies!

I would advise against adding a glaze to your black forest ham because it has been processed to give it a unique flavor already. As far as how long to cook it will depend on the type of Black Forest Ham that it is. If it is a raw dry cured ham it is best to just let it set at room temperature for 15 to 20 minutes before serving. It is generally served with cheese and crackers. If it is a brine cured Black Forest Ham that is fully cooked, you just need to cook it long enough to bring it up to 140 degrees F.

Yes, you should be able to freeze the ham loaf. I would suggest not applying any glaze that might be called for and wait to add that just before you are going to bake it. I would freeze it before baking it but you could bake it first if you preferred. If you bake it before freezing, when you are ready to serve it, thaw it completely and slice into pieces before warming it. Warm one or two slices at a time in the microwave rather than warming the whole loaf in the oven. If you warm it in the oven as a whole loaf, it may dry out too much before it gets warmed all the way through.

Basically you would follow the same directions from the recipe but you should cook it using the indirect grilling method. Go to the following address for instructions on indirect grilling: http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--413/grilling-turkey.asp#indirect . Follow this method for grilling. Make sure that the turkey reaches a temperature of 165 degrees F in the breast and 175 degrees in the thigh. Allow it to set for 15 minutes before carving and the temp should rise to the safe temperature of 170 and 180 degrees suggested for turkey. Good luck and hope you enjoy the recipe.

You should be able to generally use the same time as you normally would. A 15 lb. turkey would take approximately 3 hours if it is unstuffed. But the best way to achieve proper doneness is to check the turkey with a thermometer. The breast should be 170 degrees F. and the thigh should be 180 degrees F. Cooking times will vary according to conditions. If you go to the following addresses on this site you will see further information: http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--910/turkey-cooking-times.asp or http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--412/roasting-turkey.asp .

Yes, you should be able to use the mini loaf pans. I would start out baking them for the same amount of time, 25 to 30 minutes. Test for doneness by poking the center with a toothpick. If it doesn't come out clean, bake for another 5 minutes and test again. If more time is needed, maybe only try an additional 3 minutes. The mini loaves shouldn't take a lot longer than the muffins. Make sure to spread the pans out evenly throughout the oven so the heat can circulate evenly around them. Good luck and enjoy!

Drummies (drummettes) are the part of a chicken wing that looks like a small drumstick. The wing also has a wingette and wing tip. The wing tip is generally discarded because it has very little edible parts. If you purchase chicken wings in the frozen food section of the supermarket you are probably going to end up with wingettes and drummettes. If the bag indicates chicken drummies or drummettes, you will get just that part of the chicken wing. For most recipes that call for chicken drummies, both the wingettes and drummettes could be used if desired.

Re:Pork safety
Posted: 08/06/2012 08:21:53 AM
It sounds like you did everything right when smoking the roast. When you checked the internal temperature, are you sure the probe got down into the center of the roast? Were there red juices or was the meat just red. If the meat was just pink in color that is the color some of the meat will turn when smoked. If it was red juices I would say it did not cook properly all the way through. You should not re-smoke or re-cook pork. If you feel the outer layer of the roast is done you could cut that away from the roast to use it, but when reheating it you have to make sure it reaches at least a temperature of 140 degrees before serving it. The inside section that still had the red juices and was tough should be discarded, not cooked again.

I think you better plan on making dessert for the whole neighborhood. I would not refreeze the rhubarb. I think its quality would greatly suffer. I great way to freeze rhubarb in bunches is to just spread the rhubarb out on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer. Once frozen, take out and put into a sealable bag or container; then place back in the freezer immediately. This way the rhubarb remains as loose individual pieces and allows you to remove only the amount you need at the time and place the rest back in the freezer for later use.

Re:Spring Mix

I am sure there are recipes that call for cooking spring mix but I don't know of any way of cooking it to preserve it. Any recipes I found that cook the spring mix intend for the dish to be eaten right away. To keep the spring mix fresh for as long as possible, first rinse it in cold water and then drain it thoroughly. Dry the mix as much as possible using a salad spinner or place it is a large plastic bag and add some paper towels. Shake the mix around in the bag with the paper towels so the towels will soak up as much moisture as possible. Store spring mix in a container or plastic sealable bag lined on the top and bottom with paper towels. The paper towels will absorb any excess moisture. Store it in the crisper drawer of the refrigerator. That is the best advice I can give you other than maybe you should share some of the spring mix with friends or family. Good luck.

If you go to this following address, http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--898/braisingstewing-lamb.asp#braise , you will see information in our Lamb cooking guide on braising lamb that I think will be very helpful to you. Good luck.

I thought you needed a cotton candy machine to make cotton candy but I guess you don't. I did a Google search for Cotton Candy recipe and found a YouTube video showing how to make it without a machine. I am not sure why anyone would go through that but if you want a recipe for cotton candy do a Google search and watch the video. You will probably change your mind.

You can go the following page and find some estimated quantity equivalents of different size cans: http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--656/can-equivalents.asp Hopefully this chart will help answer your questions. As far as how many actual chunks of pineapple are in a can, I can't answer that because I have never counted them or come across a recipe that called for a certain number of chunks. I hope the information on this Equivalence Chart will be helpful to you.

Re:Chutney Emergency- how long can it sit?
Posted: 03/19/2012 4:07:47 PM
I do not think that I would trust it. It is better to be safe than sorry with this type of thing. I think it sat too long at an unsafe temperature. If you would have placed it in the refrigerator and stored it there until you could re-boil it I think you would have been OK. Sorry, I hate to see you have waste all the ingredients and your time but I would not want anyone to get sick from it either.

Re:Sweet Potato Oven Baked Fries
Posted: 02/23/2012 10:37:11 AM
One important factor is that they should be baked in a single layer that is not overcrowded. Crowding prevents the heat from getting to the entire surface of the sweet potato fries. Otherwise, I would just try increasing the cooking time. Bake them for 15 minutes instead of just 10 before turning them and then bake them for 25 more minutes. Check for crispiness and if they are still not crisp enough, continue to bake at 5 minute intervals until they are to the desired crispiness. To get nice crispy potatoes with any recipe it seems like it takes additional time, even with the frozen fries you buy in the store. But it is well worth the extra time!

In researching this I found several suggestions. Try one of the following: shrimp paste, brined cured olives (Kalamata) Worcestershire sauce, or Japanese hondashi powder (instant dashi). About the only way to know which will work best for you is to test them in a recipe and see which you prefer. It seems that it was a matter of personal preference. Good luck.

You can easily adjust the recipe for the 2-1/2 lbs. of hamburger by adjusting the number of servings shown on the recipe to 15 rather than 6. Then click on "Update" and the recipe will automatically adjust the quantity of the ingredients for 2-1/2 lbs of hamburger. Just be aware that any alternative amounts described in the ingredient description do not get adjusted so you would have to adjust those manually. Also, you may have to increase the length of cooking time, depending on the size of loaves you make. Good luck, it looks like a tasty meat loaf.

Just mix the following ingredients together and store in an airtight container with your other spices: 1 tbsp. ground cloves, 1 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon, 1 tbsp. salt, 1 tbsp. ground bay leaf, 1 tbsp. ground allspice, 2 tbsp. ground pepper, 1 tbsp. ground white pepper, 1 tsp. ground nutmeg, 1 tsp. ground mace, 1 tsp. celery seed.

Re:southern fried chicken
Posted: 01/23/2012 07:11:58 AM
From the research I did on southern dry rice, it is my understanding that it is referring to dry loose rice. It is suggested to use long or extra long grain rice to get these results. It is generally just plain rice cooked according to your own preference. People will use various flavorings when cooking the rice, such as salt, pepper, garlic, onion, and chicken broth. They are referring to non-sticky type rice when referring to southern dry rice, which is achieved by cooking long grain rice properly.

Re:Cooking Rib Eye Roasts
Posted: 12/15/2011 12:18:01 AM
If you are cooking the roasts in the same pan, keep them separated as much as possible so the heat can circulate around them. Base cooking time on the 7 lb. roast, allowing an extra 30 minutes of cooking time in case it is needed. Start checking for doneness 15 minutes before the end of the cooking time (without the 30 extra minutes - this extra time is only used if needed). See http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t--372/roasting-beef.asp for information on what temperatures to cook your roast to for your desired doneness. If it is not at the proper temperature, continue to cook and check every 10 minutes until it is at desired doneness.

Re:bomeless turkey roasts
Posted: 11/26/2011 08:48:26 AM
The cooking time should be close to same as on the package as long as you are cooking them separated from each other so that heat from the oven can circulate around each of them. Either cook them in separate roasting pans or in one large enough to keep them separated. You may want to allow an extra 15 minutes but be sure to check for doneness a little before the suggested time is up and remember that when you remove it from the oven you should allow it to stand for 15 minutes before carving. The temperature will rise about 5 degrees during this standing time. Good luck.

Re:turkey breast roasting time
Posted: 11/23/2011 3:01:10 PM
If you place both turkey breasts in the same bag try to keep the separated as much as possible so the heat can circulate all around both of them. I think if you add 15 to 30 minutes to the cooking time that it should be sufficient. It may be best to roast them in smaller separate bags, each in their own roasting pan if possible. After 3 hours, test for doneness. The internal temperature of the turkey breast should be 170 degrees. If not continue to cook at 15 minutes intervals and then check for doneness again.

Re:Reheating a fresh ham
Posted: 11/17/2011 08:25:55 AM
Be sure that you cook the fresh ham to 160 degrees F. to ensure proper doneness. When you reheat the ham the next day make sure it is heated to 140 degrees F. This is the temperature that all foods should be reheated to for ensured safety. You can remove it from the oven when it reaches 135 degrees and allow it to stand for 10 to 15 minutes and its temperature will increase another 5 degrees, leaving you with a nice juicy ham to serve. If you would like more information on cooking a ham go to http://www.recipetips.com/kitchen-tips/t-106-/ham-cooking-guide.asp and check out our Ham Cooking Guide. Good luck with your ham!

Re:Let's get the knives out.....And the sharpeners.....
Posted: 03/31/2011 07:48:53 AM
For a knife of that quality I would not risk trying to sharpen it with an electric sharpener when it has that much damage. If it was just dull, the electric sharpener would work fine. If you want to salvage this knife I would have it sharpened professionally. It would be worth it to have a professional sharpen it right and then after that the edge could be maintained with a good quality electric sharpener, such as the Chefs Choice electric sharpener. Good luck and I hope you get a lot of good use out of your knife.
