I could call this Red Copper Skillet Lasagna!




     When I was having fun making this, I had a few objectives in mind. 1) Use that square red copper skillet; 2) use up leftovers that were in the fridge; and 3), of course, enjoy a good time!



     I didn't know we didn't have any store bought lasagna noodles!  Oh darn!  I guess I just have to make some!  Let's put some bread flour and eggs to work!












     I had some herbs growing from pots out on the porch, so I got to enjoy using them!  I cleared the fridge of some leftover chicken, ground beef, and pork cutlets.  Chop, chop, chop!  Heat, stir, taste, correct with herbs, spices, and seasoning.  Repeat if necessary!


     Did I mention we had some left over sour cream and ricotta cheese too!












    We ate about half of it on the first go around!  I love, love, LOVE left over lasagna!

      See that heart on the wall in the back?  One of my students in South Korea gave me that as a going away present made by his mom.  I miss him and his brother!  They were truly dedicated students.  I left the town of Yeongcheon, Gyeongsanbukdo in 2012 after having lived / taught there since 2008.  Leo!  Lloyd!  How are you doing?

Fun with Chicken wings, Spicy Sweet and Sour Sauce, Peanut Butter Sauce

  So I was wanting a wide mouth deep cooking tool (it helps avoid grease splatters all over the stove).  A wok is soooo versatile.  I found this one for $5.  I don't like the wooden handles (they tend to deteriorate fast), but it might work out just fine over the long haul.       It was so much fun cutting up the chicken wings and coating them with a mixture of corn starch, all purpose flour (I think self-rising flour would have produced an even crispier crust) to which I should have added baking powder but I forgot, salt, and pepper.      I fried the wings twice.  Yes!  Fry for about 6 minutes on each side, remove, then fry the whole batch a second time for about 5 - 10 minutes... to add to the crispiness!            I've been anxious to try this homemade spicy, sweet, and sour sauce.  In a food processor, I chopped nectarines, apricots, ginger, red pepper flakes, and raw honey.  I let the mix chill in the fridge for a few days.      I put abo
