About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
I would like to try cooking more things. The problem is that I should have named my son "Mikey" because "he won't eat it - he hates everything!"
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every fall my extended family goes apple picking. Then the next weekend we all go to my mom's house to bake a bunch of apple pies and cakes. The work goes much faster when there is a whole group of us peeling, chopping and mixing!
My cooking tragedies
I once burned spaghetti noodles I was boiling. I learned to make sure there is enough water in the pot!!

Beef Stew VI
I made a double batch of this for a sledding party yesterday and everyone commented they thought it was great. I added extra cornstarch because I like a thicker gravy, but all other ingredients were the same. I cooked the stew on the stove until it was done and then moved it to a crock pot to keeep it warm until we were ready to eat.

Parmesan Pork Tenderloin
This is a good recipe that I will make again. I rated it as average (3 stars) because I felt it was too salty as written. The salt to parmesan/bread crumb ratio seems out of balance for my taste. Next time I will reduce the salt by 1/2. The veggies were very good cooked in the pan after the meat.

Maria's Rice
A very good, simple recipe. I will definitely be making this again. The only problem I had was that the top layer of rice got well done and the edges were crispy. I didn't see anyone else mention a problem with the cooking time, so I may have to check my oven temp or it could possibly be the cook. :) I might try lowering the temp to 400 next time.
