  I thought it might be good to have a thread to discuss ideas and recipes.  Cold weather coming so that means chili among other things for me.  Gonna make some corn and bean chowder which has some elements of chili in it.  Fresh sweet corn is just about done here in WNY but I take a couple of ears and slice the kernels into the mix.  I also do a two or three bean combo including red kidney beans and navy beans.  Sometimes I just put a can of Grandma Brown's baked beans in there.  Chili powder and a little brown sugar.  Fresh tomatoes that cook down.

Hubby is cooking this weekend!   I should probably find out what, but as long as it isn’t venison, and I am not the one doing the cooking, I don’t really care what he is serving.

  The wife has been busy helping her family since her mom passed a few months ago so lots of kitchen time for me.  I don't mind.  Just a little sad some cool days have waited so long because like I said before fresh corn on the ear is big in setting the flavor in the chowder.  Sweet corn probably will be gone locally by the end of next week.

  Thank you.  The last several months were tough for the MIL but she lived a fairly full life into her 80's.

Hubby is making venison chili.   I think it is a ploy to get me to cook.

Pan cooked. You toast the spices in olive oil for half a minute and then add the thawed shrimp. A local bar makes them (they grill theirs) and I had a season opener party but they had been booked to cater a wedding and couldn't take my order. This comes out just as good.

How much time you got?  

[Chef Jim]

I’ve been making yogurt. Super easy. 
 

1. Heat milk to 190

2. Let milk cool to 115

3. Add yogurt culture

4. Put in mason jars

5.  Incubate overnight at 100

        A.  I use a cooler with a heating pad inside it. 
6.  Profit. 
 

You can flavor it with whatever you like.  I make a berry compote (cook berries sweetened with honey) and out that in the bottom of the mason jar.
