Subject: BS: 'Catter's Kitchen-Cooking Tips & Safety
Okay, Rick, I'll start here:

General Kitchen Safety.

Fire Kills. If you go look at the page on Deep Frying it tells you good stuff like "don't fill the pan more than 1/3 full of oil."

Google has a directory for safe kitchens.

Here is a place that looks like it has a lot of tips and recipes.

We've had great threads on corn bread, stew, fish, to name a few. We seem to get into these cooking jags during cold weather, and we've made some important discoveries. Like when Peg realized she'd had an angel at her shoulder keeping her from blowing herself to bits when using flour to extinguish cooking fires. (I suppose it's like using nitroglycerine to blow out oil derrick fires?) :-)

Anyway, this post is started as a reference for future cooking threads, to refer back to for safe cooking hints and also as a resource for finding unusual ingredients or gadgets.
