I believe they're usually served with very thick european style hot chocolate, for the dipping.
Either that or dulce de leche, yeah.

The only reason I know that is because my favorite restaurant has a window to the kitchen and one time I was sitting next to the window one of the prep cooks was stuffing the thing full of dough and then extruding churros the length of her hand to fill up a tray. The link posted looks pretty similar to the one they were using so I guess it can do any number of special purposes.

My Mum does this, and I also caught her using a partially broken, jagged knife to move stuff around in a nonstick pan. She did not understand why it made me so angry.

What I don’t get is that I know a couple who’s all about organic and shit because of toxins and crap but here they are, scrap scrap scrapping Teflon into their food. I explain to them that once Teflon is in you, it ain coming out, and they should use the appropriate tools. The just shrug their shoulders and continue to scramble their eggs with a metal fork on a Teflon coated pan.
I've recently come around to realize just how good mushrooms can be in a sandwich. For dinner tonight I made myself a sandwich with some chopped and sautee'd mushrooms, browned onions, and cheese, and it was delicious. Didn't need any meat at all for it to be filling and to get a nice meaty taste to it. I think I'm gonna experiment more with mushrooms when making lunches for myself in the future, because it's such a good ingredient. Pretty light, too.
My brother hates mushrooms, so all the more for me, I guess.

I'm making shepherd's pie for dinner. Sort of.
I'm using left over mashed cauliflower instead of potatoes, and some left over cubed steak that I've chopped up instead of the more common ground beef, and the only vegetables I had on hand were som frozen peas, so in they go.
Worst case scenario: I'm out of leftovers and have learned a valuable lesson regarding substituting not potatoes for potatoes.
But it's smelling pretty tasty, so, fingers crossed.
Edit:
Turned out really tasty. I may have left it under the broiler for a bit longer than I should have, just wanted to get a little bit of toastiness on top.
Think I'll consider this one a success.

I recently started putting peas in my lamb and eggplant shepherd's pie. It's a good move.
Does anyone know a good pepper grinder (just for black peppercorn)?
Like the only one I've got is one of those ones that comes on top of those small McCormick spice bottles
I bought this one a couple of years ago and it is still doing a good job. I googled articles of top pepper grinders while I was in a Bed, Bath & Beyond and they had this one in stock.

Got invited to a Friendsgiving next weekend! I'm bringing tiramisu and two loaves of bread, one of Rose Levy Beranbaum's basic sandwich loaf and one of her cinnamon spiral bread. Since I moved into town from the sticks, I should be able to get them from oven to table in ten minutes flat.
I made 6 thoroughly mediocre chicken pot pies tonight. The only reason I'm even mentioning it is because though I needed more seasonings and more cream, I NAILED gluten free crust! It was light, flaky, and delicious and I'm proud of myself
I ended up buying Peugeot mills because I wanted the wood look, but all of the Oxo stuff I own also rocks so do that.
I love my Peugeot pepper mill (and the adjustable grind setting) but apparently I lived up to my namesake one day and dropped it and the wood trim at the bottom cracked into two pieces. Been meaning to epoxy it back on but it still works fine. 5/5 grind quality, 5/5 looks, 2/5 durability.
A little late to the party, but I really recommend that whichever mill you get use a ceramic burr grinder rather than steel. They are much less prone to corrosion (which is something you need to be wary about with steel, especially if you grind directly over a steaming pot). Also you shouldn't use pink or green peppercorns with steel burrs, again due to the moisture.

my pepper grinder has a coarse setting and it's the only one I use
it doesn't grind the peppercorns so much as convince them to split into quarters, and I love it

You've just killed a man.
they're basically just straight cinnamon twists right?

Celebration Tacos!
My brother hates mushrooms, so all the more for me, I guess.
i see you went with the subtle knife model
Well, they turned from celebration tacos into I hate this god damn administration tacos, but they are really really good anyway

Hopefully this turns out well in a couple weeks!

Oxo makes good stuff

I have to work all Sunday, so it may have to wait till next week

*Probably nothing to do with it's grinding qualities though.
It was even better the second night.
Sadly, I am now out of shepherd's pie. But, it was easy and tasty enough to make again.
If you haven't ordered yet I got this one after reading pepper grinder reviews. I've loved it so far. Fresh ground pepper has been an amazing change.

it's a good pepper mill
it is actually wine bottle sized and holds a goodly amount of peppercorns
Also I don't really like black pepper
That's unimaginable to me. I need it like a Navigator needs The Spice.
I mean I won't say no to it if someone offers it or a dish has it. It adds something. But I can usually take it or leave it.
