I use a 50/50 mix of flour and cornmeal. Makes the best batter you have ever tasted! Especially with okra, which I then fry in oil to a crunchy crisp. Also works for squash. No milk or egg needed. But buttermilk would probably be good, since it is with fried chicken. IP: Logged |

I'm taking a supplement that you dissolve in your mouth. It's flavored by beets. Tastes great.------------------ I have CDO. It's like OCD, but the letters are in alphabetical order, as they should be. IP: Logged |

Here its raining nicely and my 'Sontakka' flowers (i don't know what they are called in English) are blooming. I will upload an image sometime. i just don't get it directly on imageshack. It only gives the link. Either that or i don't know it. Anyways, your vegetables look pretty good. What's wrong with it. The green things we make couple of dishes with. Yummy! What do you call it? And our good old beetroot. Just yesterday i had made a beetroot salad and thought of you and this thread.
Just missed our beetroot thread. And here's the pic i promised.
