Do you always invert your knife placement like that? Tut, tut, tut. . .

I truly admire your style.

When I'm home alone, I revert to single-gal mode and just nuke me a Lean Cuisine.

That's impressive bachelor fare - when I'm left alone, it's beans on toast or takeaway.

Spinach latkes, hmmmm never tried them but it do sound purty good to me..I think I'll try that recipe..but gotta find some matzoh meal..what is it?

Guy, matzoh meal is available in the ethnic section of most grocery stores - it's just ground-up unleavened bread. If you can't find it, a little flour would probably do the trick.

Lemme know if you like 'em!

Spinach latkes? Have you gone mad?

Too much trouble. Except of course, for your mission objective of empirical data collection on the performance of aforementioned nuculer campfire. As for me, I'm heading out to find a vendor of charred chunks of dead cows.

Chappy Chanukah!

For the best results when cooking duck:

Season skin side.

Fry skin-side down in fry pan for roughly three to five minutes.

place in an oven (should be medium to medium-well).

*Note* You'll know when it's ready by pressing down on the game, it'll feel like your thenar eminence when lightly contracted (do this by closing your hand without to much tension).
Also, remember to relax the game for a couple of minutes before cutting, or your loose precious juices.

Cheers

I've always hated latkes... but I've never had a spinach latke. That could be the one that wins me over.
