Uh... no... I just had the bestest tiramisu in the whole world at a chinese buffet place. It was to DIE for.

HOWEVAH, I 've never had tiramisu made by an italian. So there goes that theory. :oldshrugguy: And I'm sure if I had tiramisu made by an italian, i'd like it. Or by a muslim. Or by Pepe. I just like everything. :beriberiashamed:

Note to self- never ever EVER give dogo a taste of what a REAL tiramisu tastes like.
Oh and you think PASTA is italian? stupid marco polo imported the bloody thing from china and claimed it his own.

Loser.

SO, IN YOUR FACE!

@ Guada: Awesome! Thank you girl! I'll try the reciepe and let you know how it goes.

Guadalupana · Foro Master

oh and Marsala is a dark, sweet, fortified dessert wine that resembles sherry. That receta is also good with chicken.

Guadalupana · Foro Master

Here you go chale: Veal Marsala

8 veal cutlets (about 3 ounces each)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 to 4 tablespoons olive oil
1 large shallot, finely chopped
2 to 4 garlic cloves, smashed
2 ounces assorted mushrooms, sliced
1/2 cup sweet Marsala
3/4 cup low-salt chicken broth
Leaves from 1 fresh rosemary sprig

Sprinkle the veal with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil in a heavy large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 veal cutlets and cook until golden brown, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer the veal to a plate. Add another tablespoon of butter and oil, if necessary. Repeat with the remaining 4 cutlets. Set the cutlets aside.

Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Add the shallot and garlic. Saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add a tablespoon of the olive oil, if necessary. Add the mushrooms and saute until tender and the juices evaporate, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Add the Marsala. Simmer until the Marsala reduces by half, about 2 minutes. Add the broth and the rosemary leaves. Simmer until reduced by half, about 4 minutes. Return the veal to the skillet. Pour in all of the pan juices. Cook just until heated through, turning to coat, about 1 minute. Stir the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter into the sauce. Season the sauce with salt and pepper, to taste.

Using tongs, transfer the veal to plates. Spoon the sauce over the veal and serve.

Guadalupana · Foro Master

in my head I had some salmon, and I had some mushrooms... so I thought it would be a good idea to marry them together and see what kind of union they created.

Are you sure wasn't dill sauce ?

i feel sorry for the poor sap that they fashioned these emoticons from... this 'no' one seems to have a riviting head so that when he says no his head goes fully from one side to the other. And he's pink. He mustve been a white man with a bad sun burn.

Sometimes I can make Macaroni and Cheese but that's sometimes.

Last time I overcooked it so I threw it out thinking the raccoons would eat it but then the next day, there was one dead in the middle of my road, so I don't think it was good.

I asked El Pibe to put the raccoon in the garbage.

But he didn't put him with the macaroni.

*le sigh* (cc: You) Even in death, no body wants my macaroni.
