# May be followed by a worm dug out of the “dirt”. You may substitute vanilla pudding for the chocolate if you want, and use up to 20 oz of Oreos. Please use a clean new plastic flower pot or take the precaution of lining a clay pot with foil and wrap the stems of live flowers if you use them in order to prevent any toxins from entering the dessert.

# And then fold in the whipped topping. Gently fold the cream cheese and pudding mixtures together. To put the “cake” together, layer one-third of the cookie crumbs followed by 1/2 of the pudding mixture, 1/3 of the crumbs, the rest of the pudding mixture and topping with the balance of the crumbs.
# Next is to refrigerate 10-12 hours before serving. Remove from refrigerator, decorate with flowers. Serve by digging out portions with the trowel.

CHICKEN CHUNKS WITH PEANUTS IN SPICY SAUCE (KUNG PAO)

To contact us Click HERE
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Chinese Chicken

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1/2 cup Raw peanuts
3 cups Peanut oil
2 Whole chicken breasts at -- room temp.
1 large Egg white
1 1/2 tablespoons Water chestnut flour
SAUCE:
4 Green onions
2 large Cloves garlic
1 tablespoon Minced ginger root
1/2 cup Chicken stock
1/2 tablespoon Sesame oil
1/2 tablespoon Chinese red vingear
1/2 tablespoon Dark soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons (level) chili paste with -- garlic
1 tablespoon Dry sherry
1 pinch Sugar
Cornstarch paste

Preparation: Trim ends off green onions and cut light green and white
part into 1" sections. Mix all other sauce ingredients in 2-quart
saucepan.
Reserve.
Pull skin off breasts, then pull chicken meat from bones. Slice meat into
1" strips, then crosswise to make 1" chunks. In bowl large enough to hold
chicken, add egg white to water chestnut flour. Beat mixture with a
single chopstick (not an egg beater or whisk). Stir chicken pieces into
egg mixture to coat thoroughly. Marinate 5 minutes. Note: water chestnut
flour gives a lighter crust than cornstarch, though the latter may be
substituted.
Deep-frying: Heat cooking oil in wok or deep-fryer to medium heat (you'll
need more oil for deep-fryer). Fry peanuts until they are a light tan
color; if a test peanut browns quickly, turn down heat. Remove peanuts
with strainer or slotted spoon; drain on paper towel or paper bag.
Reserve.
Turn up heat slightly for chicken. Test a chunk first: chicken should
raise to surface immediately & brown in about 2 minutes. Deep-fry coated
chicken chunks until golden brown. Deep-fry no more than 8 chunks at a
time. Use long chopsticks or spatula to keep pieces separate while they
are frying. Remove with long chopsticks or slotted spoon. Reserve.
Sauce: While deep-frying chicken, heat sauce to simmer. Add green onions
& peanuts about a minute before serving. At the last minute, add chicken
pieces to sauce, mix quickly & serve.

When preparing pasta, it is important to add salt to the pot of water. Seasoning will impregnate the pasta more efficiently while it cooks. Salting the pasta after cooking it does not allow it to hold seasoning that well.

If serving salad, keep the dressing on the side, rather than pouring it on the salad. Let people add what they want to their salad. Offer many different types of salad dressing as well. Buy fish and meat on the bone. All of the bones can be stored in freezer bags, so you can use them at another time.

When preparing a large family dinner, do some prep work the night before to decrease stress and leave time for you to enjoy everyone. Chop veggies, prepare a sauce, or marinate meat before heading to bed. You will save a lot of time, and feel much less stressed when you have to cook.

Grilled fruit is surprisingly delicious. Try grilling melons, peaches or even apple chunks. Use a skewer to thread them. Place the fruit directly on a grill and allow it to cook until grill marks are visible. Then, serve them atop grilled pound cake or ice cream.

To quickly cut herbs, bind herbs together and snip with scissors. When cut in this way, these herbs will have a lighter, fresher appearance.

Set the oven timer as well as a watch timer. If you use a watch or a cellphone as a timer, you will be sure to hear the alarm go off even if you are out of the kitchen.

It is a good practice to place cut potatoes in a bath of cold water for about half and hour, before frying in order to get crispy fries. The soaking process will reinforce the vegetable fibers, and they will be better able to withstand heat when you fry them.

Over-salting a meal or a sauce is a very common cooking mistake, and there is an easy way to deal with it. Add two peeled and chopped raw potatoes to the dish, and then allow it to simmer for around 15 minutes. The potatoes absorb the excess salt. If the dish you are making is tomato-bases, just put more tomatoes in it to cut the saltiness, and cook them until tender.

Becoming a good cook takes research and practice. Some people naturally love cooking, while others need a push. They just need a little information. By reading this article, it is possible to become the cook you have always wanted to be.

Ice Cream!

Creamy, decadent, and rich peanut butter chocolate ice cream. This describes the best tasting ice cream I have ever tried. But not just any brand can make it good. I used to eat it as a kid from a brand called Tillamook. They really knew what they were doing with this ice cream. I enjoy almost any flavor of ice cream. I am not a fan of hard as a rock frozen ice cream so I usually let it sit out for ten minutes until it reaches a softer consistency. I tend to think it tastes better when it isn't so frozen. You really cant go wrong whether it is Gelato, frozen yogurt, soft serve, or even low fat. Ice cream to me, is ice cream!
