I was under the impression that the recipe requires a red sweet potato (what we generally refer to incorrectly as a yam), but the grocery delivery supplied me with a light sweet potato-the crumbly when cooked and not red or orange at all kind.

I assume I shouldn’t use that one in my recipe and should instead grab the reddish kind, yes?

Thanks!

I would be putting in cabury milk chocolate. Do you think this would work the same? I do. I just want another opinion.

I really need answers! cuz i really wanna make them!

I’m making stuffed chicken, and I realized I need some kind of light sauce. It’s blue cheese/bacon stuffed chicken and rice. The blue cheese and bacon have strong flavors, so I need a mild sauce.

what I have on hand: garlic, white cooking wine, butter, heavy cream. Anything I can do with just those?

Thanks!
I also have chicken broth

Mine come out pretty doughy and heavy and crunchy, not crispy. Cooked them at 190 deg (Centigrade) in Sunflower oil. Used a water/butter/flour/egg mix.

I’d really love them to come out how I had them in restaurant; thin and crispy with a hollow(ish) middle. Also, they should be a little lighter I think. Is it my cooking method or recipe and can you suggest others please? :)

My aunt used to make really good sirloin steaks cooked on a cast-iron skillet. I’m trying to figure out what she marinaded the steak with. The marinade was light and had a smokey flavor. I don’t remember the taste of any herbs. Could it just be Worchestire sauce w/salt and pepper?

I’m trying a new recipe that calls for 1 cup chopped poblano chile. The closest thing I have is chile paste I use in some of my Asian dinners. Can I use it instead of a fresh chile? If so, how much should I use?

Here’s the recipe in Cooking Light magazine: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/sauteed-shrimp-with-sherry-50400000111996/

I need easy and healthy recipes for pumpkin pie and pie crust!
Also any other healthy recipes with pumpkin in them are good too, like muffins, breads, rice, etc.
There’s a big fall event coming up soon, and I have to make a ton of pumpkin foods.
Joy.
Thanks!

I have a recipe from Cooking Light Dec. 2011 called Iced Sugar Cookies, and the Icing calls for 4 teaspoons egg white powder….my local store does not have any. I am assuming I can’t use raw egg as the icing doesn’t get cooked. Is there another substitution that I can try?
