CRAB CAKES! Sorry to tease you all. I made a huge platter of delicious crab cakes and they so rule, but my family refuses to eat them. I'm so annoyed. I'd eat them all myself, but I'm on a diet.

What do you love that everyone else hates? Or what can you make that totally kicks ass? Feel free to hijack this thread for random food comments. :)

None of my kids will eat chicken & dumplings, and I love them! So, every once in awhile, it's fend-for-yourself night, and mom makes a pot of chicken & dumplings. The best part is they're even better left over.

They won't eat chicken and dumplings! :eek: What are they? Communists or something? ;)

Next time you make them call me up, I'll help you deal with them... the dumplings I mean. :)

OMG. The exact same fucking thing happened to me with salmon cakes! The BF wouldn't eat them because they contained celery. I almost cried. I was so pissed, I threw them in the garbage. (Drama queen? Who, me?)

Put 'em in the freezer and we'll eat 'em next week when I come up. If my throat starts to close up, you know what to do. :rose:

And I'll make us some kick-ass okra.

That's exactly what I'm going to do. We've also got ten pounds of gulf shrimp in the freezer, so I'll make some scampi too. :)

Chicken and dumplings, mmmm.

We should have a potluck!

Okra is wonderful if it's cooked right - takes a southern cook, though.

Dolly-ducky: I got excited for a sec, thought you were offering to deal with the kids. :(

Vella, I love you, but you do not understand okra. When fried it becomes crunchy and delicious. When stewed, it is not sticky, if cooked correctly. Sometimes I eat it every day for weeks.

(And yes. My grandma, who taught me to cook okra, is from Arkansas!:rose: )

No. Okra good!

but asparagus is EVIL! :devil: :devil:

were we separated at birth? :confused:
 
Another thing I love that people seem to hate is bread pudding. I make it with raisin bread and lots of yummy spices.
 
About t he only thing I fix that I can't get people to try is my Jalapeno Brownies. I fix them every time I make chili. Everyone LOVES my chili. I can't get them to even try the brownies. And with Strawberry jam... MmmmmMMMM!!! Nothing more scrumptious.

Well, maybe Cloudy. :D:heart:

Sorry Dran, but Jalapeno Brownies just sounds repulsive. :( But maybe it's just me.

It's probably one of those things like mayonaisse(sp) cake that sounds ick but actually tastes good. Drunk, that is totally something I'd eat.

If you love olives, we very well may be.


Jalapeno Brownies!!!! I need to try those. Sounds awesome!

Scarlett, bread pudding rules, but it's best made with day-old french bread and a whiskey sauce. I'll teach you to make the sauce if ya want... and then whatever will we do with all that left-over whiskey?:D

Okay. Here's the kicker.

Raw sauerkraut. Straight from the jar.

I've offered to marry people for sharing this passion.
