Next time try lightly toasting the almonds in a dry frying pan
for a few minutes and adding them to the salad last, after you've
mixed in the dressing.  I'd think the nuts would work best if they
were crunchy.  (Salad in this case being green beans.)

also, roasting in the oven works very nicely, we've found.  just stick on a
baking sheet, and let her rip!

re: pralines (not before Christmas, sorry)
I was browsing in *The Technical Services Cookbook* (an in-house
private publication from the University of Michigan Library in 1973)
and noticed the following recipe, submitted by Storrow Moss (then of
Catalog Services)

Pecan Pralines

1 cup buttermilk
2 cups granulated sugar
1 tsp. soda
pinch salt
1 cup pecans
1 tsp. vanilla

This foams -- use a large pan.  Cook first four ingredients over
a low flame, stirring slightly.  Bring to soft ball stage.  Remove
from heat.  Add pecans and vanilla.  Beat until creamy.  Drop onto 
waxed paper.  Cool.

You are having very wrong imprewsion that fat gives taste. Fat is just the m
medinum which helps food to cook properly. Spices the one which gives taste to
the food to tye food. I am having excellent dish inmy mind for you, is Tandoori
Chicken It,s an an Indian dish. Try it out in any Indian restaurant. with very
less fat.t.t

Check it out -- the kitchen conference has a new fair witness: Meg
Heberlein!  Welcome Meg!

Anybody up for a kitchen conference re-start?  The current version is
on the big side, but not totally overly huge, either.

Eh?  Who's this Meg person?  I thought it said "eeyore"!

(Congratulations, Meg - it's just that this is the first time I've seen
that name, I think.)

Congrats, Meg.

I'd be up for a restart.  Items stay fresh longer if you don't
store them next to stale items.

Hi I am new here.  This is great. Concerning the microwave praline recipe.
i wonder if you cooked it part way on the stove would it work? I know if it
is grainy it hasn't had the sugar disolved properly.
JI have a recipe book I need to start usingg "Butter Busters" But darn fat
sure tastes good.   Has anybody tried any of those recipes using prune puree
for  a subsitute for fat and some sugar in  baked d goods such as brownies?
Susposedly you puree the prunes (pitted of course) and use 1/2 cup in place
of fat and some sugar.
There is certainly alot of interesting subsitutes but I  get lazy lately about
cooking.

BANDEJA PAISA (National Dish)
Bandeja Paisa is a typical Colombian dish, made with beans, rice, avocado,
fried egg, ground meat and arepa.

No recipe was given. I guess you have to send mail to banano for that.

I did not know what arepa was when I translated this. It was not in my
dictionary, either, but the Web came to my rescue. I did a WWW search 
for it and I found a nice description (in Spanish) on the Colombian web site:
http://conexred.eafit.edu.co/~stda/folcklor.html
 
Basically it is a traditional bread. The most common ones are made with white
corn, but there are arepas made with other kinds of corn.

BTW: "Paisa" is a little difficult to translate properly. It comes from
pais=country in the sense of one's nation, or more specifically culture. 
So it doesn't mean from the country in the sense that we use "farm" as an 
adjective in English, but rather (in this case) from Colombia. So I chose 
"National" rather than "Country" as its translation.
