Clown And then there was my grandmother ...

Bless her, the woman served lime Jello with grated carrots and thin sliced celery in it for every holiday. Most of the family sort of pushed it around, but they didn't like it. Then she added cottage cheese to the mix. And later in my childhood, she included chopped pecans, followed shortly by chopped walnuts. I never understood what she had against lime Jello. Actually, I confess I liked it until she got to cottage cheese phase. Oh well, she probably would have LIKED fried Jello!

Dear Anneke:

Don't forget that Cape Chef and I are of the same generation. Just two more children of the "creme fraiche" revolution!

cool jello out of the fridge,as it jiggles and wiggles and you enjoy the slurp it makes as you take it in is a very sensual thing.
It's not the flavor it's the texture.

Cool Profiles please!

Bond

What about profiling a Jello user and a creme fraiche user?

I could do this but I am not as good as you are!!

Everybody knows that!

PS Do you believe that Athenaeus doesn't know what jello is?

well, i must say that i got quite the response!!!! The reason I was asking in the first place is because my son is having his 6th year birthday, and I wanted to make something fun and surprising and I thought that this would be very interesting and....WHO THE **** WOULD WANT TO FRY JELL-O ANYWAY??????
It came up in conversation at work one day and I thought I would try it. I mean how bad can it be??? right?? sugar coated wiggly sugar; great for kids. I can't do any worse than purple and green ketchup!!!!!

oh and by the way the dye from the ketchup doesnt come out of clothes or off hands very well!!!! Just a mental note to parents and of course grown kids)

It made you all think about it for a moment at least. Try something new with food it cant be that bad(unless you burnt it...ha ha ha) so the next time you want something creative just look down the aisles of your supermarket and imagine something way off the wall!!! might be a new trend...

well gotta go



and cape chef you got my recipe for the seafood cheesecake????
i would really appreciate it thanks

Cool profiles...

My dear Zorba!

Nice suggestion. I have this theory that personalities and tastes are strongly connected.

I was not surprised AT ALL with CC's suggestion.

I was not surprised AT ALL with Athenaeus "Ignorance".
Girls like Athenaeus never know anything...and they blush a lot.
Don't worry Athenaeus there is nothing for me to teach you, dear

All I need to say is that if personalities like CC and Athenaeus did not exist the only thing that we, the others, would do with jello was to fry it...
I think that I made myself clear.

But Papa and creme fraiche, that was a surprise!
Come on Papa you cannot be serious with that!
Creme fraiche types are the promising but not so active types.
Craime fraiche , my hot spicy dish,doesn't show sophistication but absence!
I am sorry girls but I can explain you why if you wish!!

Hot spicy dish and my sweet Anneke haven't decided yet whether they prefer jello or creme fraiche.
But Nancy...knows very well what she wants from life

I think I was very reserved and polite . And I behaved my self.
I wouldn't want a novice wanabe something chef...to scold me in public again.

Always yours.

Bond,James Bond

Dear James:

You are so right!

Age, unfortunately, never comes alnone. It brings along culinary wisdom too. Now I go for the cherries.

Red face Cherries?

Would it be cherries in Armagnac, cherries with crème fraîche or cherry flavoured Jell-O, Papa?

And Bond, you naughty boy!!!

Thumbs down

Bond, you idiot boy

As we say in Greece, in that case, even walls would blush...

Here in the haute-cuisine atmosphere of the West of Scotland we have the 'jeelie piece' . The same people that brought the deep fried mars bar into the world also make jello sandwiches. There is a restaurant here that deep fries them and they are surprisingly light and tasty - but it's not the same type of 'jeelie piece' that most of the rest of the population eats.
