What is your signature dish?
 
I absolutely love cooking and was wondering what your signature dish is.
What do your SO/kids/friends/family keep asking for, what food do you love to cook?

My Mom and now by extension me, are known for a certain cookie that only makes an appearance around the holidays/by particular request of friends. They are called raisin molasses gems, and they are full of sugary spicy goodness.

"Grandma" Cake (aka Eclair Cake) is another one.

My mom is also known for her awesome lasagna recipe. She (who is Scots-Irish by heritage) has been deemed an "honorary Italian" by one of my biological brother's fraternity brothers.

homemade macaroni and cheese, a pineapple casserole, pot roast, pork tenderloin prepared in the crockpot, spice cookies.

Well there are quite a few... I'll start with non-desserts: mashed potatoes, chicken pot pie, and bacon (apparently I cook it really well). Desserts: home made Oreos, Milanos, red velvet cake, imitation Loft House frosted sugar cookies, and fancily decorated cupcakes. I love cooking!

I'm not a very good cook, but I make great brownies.:)

victoriana 11-10-2010 10:21 PM

Darn you all... now I'm really hungry for something yummy

cheerfulgreek 11-10-2010 10:22 PM

Oh, and I also make great chocolate chip and pumpkin muffies, too.:)

My sister always requests my spaghetti carbonara. My dad likes my linguini with fresh clam sauce.

Thai chicken thighs, mashed potatoes and gooey butter cake.

My friends all think I make wonderful Lasagna (even though I'm not Italian, and they don't realize it's a heart healthy version!). My family insists on my broccoli casserole & stuffed eggs every holiday, but also love my pot roast. I think I'm an even better baker. I just made my autumn sugar cookies that are as beautiful as they are delicious last week.

I've been cooking since I was an itty bitty girl (3? 4?), so I'm a fairly good cook when I want to be. One thing I've never done, though (*hanging her head*) is to fry chicken. It seems so daunting! My foster cousin has offered to show me, though - that's her signature dish!

Because of this thread, I decided to bake some chocolate chip muffies for everyone at the clinic, tomorrow.:)

There are four things that people are always ecstatic to see:
1. secret family recipe for spaghetti and meatballs
2. strawberry cheesecake that I have played with for years
3. cookie lady spice cookies (given by a woman we named the cookie lady on his mail route)
4. my fried chicken

Chicken Broccoli Glop (a kind of chicken divan type of dish), Beef Stroganoff, Coca Cola Cake, Snickerdoodles, Buche de Noel (Yule Log), which at Thanksgiving becomes Buche de Turkey.

My step-mom can't cook a piece of toast but she makes one killer Chicken Parm. I can't even put it into words without my mouth watering...and that souded really pathtic

Tons of sauce, tons of cheese, tons of pasta, and chicken falling off the bone. (Who hates me? =P )
