I agree cheddar is terrible on Pizza. But mozzarella isn't the only good one, provolone is good too. That's it I'm going to the store. Cheese pizza


Pineapple is delicious on pizza Vic. I love it :-)

I love pineapple on a pizza, a sheshcebob(?), stew and the best I ever had was at the Hotel K.
Ang, that pineapple rocked.

Not to late to order an Anni Shirt

the only problem with pineapple in a pizza is.. the leftovers really do not work as well.

A pizza should always have Gorgonzola on it, I love that cheese. Over here we always get it on a pizza 4 cheeses.

I love cheese. Most cheeses. I love Mozerella, Cheddar, Gouda, Swiss, Havarti, Romano, Parmesan, Cream, Jack.... the list could go on and you could hit other cheeses I love, hate, or never tried.

But for purity's sake on a pizza.. Just Mozerella. Cheddar goes nicely on a taco, Monterey Jack in my burrito, Taco Salad maybe both.. And I love sprinkling Romano or Parmesan on too many things to mention. I will sit down and cut myself slabs of cheese and just eat and enjoy..

So please.. there is no need to defend other cheeses. Just let me defend my pizza ;)

Now I would like to point out I do not consider myself a "cook" of any worth.

However as I am currently a "person of leisure" I decided to do a bit of home cooking, my favorite beef and mushroom chilli and took some pics as well

Start here; The basic ingredients


Cook!


Makes enough for 2!


Serve with you favorite tipple sour cream and flat bread.



Enjoyed!!


Have to admit I never thought I'd post in the Cooks thread :-0

OMG, Bernie......
That looks like it could be one of my favorites!!!

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

I have to say it looks delicious Bernie, although it would most likely not be called "Chili[con-carne]" in south or western USA.

You might try substituting the sour cream with chopped onions and... Cheddar!

I do agree with the observation on sharp cheddar. If melted down it loses its "bite" and is more palatable.

And Mark: Happy cheese comes from happy cows. Happy cows come from california ;)

Honestly most of the cheddar and Jack cheese I currently buy (looking towards local organic instead) is from Oregon.

Tillamock Oregon actually Vic

Here all the cheese is either imported from California or Wisconsin, Yes I said imported, as I live in the desert where almost everything has to be imported, except for the air, water and the views, I do like Tillamook of course as they have this huge block, sure the Tillamook cheese is from Wisconsin and all, but I don't care, except when I'm short of funds...

Not even close Vic, it is from Tillamook, Or.

LOL...
Well, as far as I am concerned, all things cheesy come from Wisconsin.
Being a lifelong resident.
And Eric came from here too.

Cheddar and sour cream in chili is most excellent, BTW.
As well as freshly chopped onion.

Bernie that looks awesome! I like chili so much (btw non-existenent in Greece) that I bought fresh Jalapenos and Poblanos from Portobello market (London) last year and now growing them over here (wish I'd found some Serranos too).

A couple of suggestions if I may:

Chili isn't chili without cumin. It's Bolognese:D

Not sure about that generic chili powder. I know Sainsburry's do a small bag of 3-4 fresh chili peppers for either 79p or 99p, can't remember. Float those in and if you can take the heat squeeze in the pulp when done. For even more heat squeeze in the seeds too. Another option that should be easy to find is Cayenne powder. And another is Tabasco's (green) Jalapeno sauce that is 10 kinds of tasty!

Garlic?

Garlic is excellent in most anything......and it's good for your health too.
Yadda, tons of it in chile or more anything you cook.

A couple of diced garlic on a frozen pizza is nize.................very nize.

Sour cream? northener. Same people that tell them to use kidney beans.

generic chili powder contains cummin.

I am not opposed to using chili powder, but some Pasilla Chili's can really round out the flavor. A touch of garlic is okay as well.

I am sure there is an ongoing argument about true chili southernors about whehter to include beans or not. As well as the noodles.

My mom?, She came from Dutchland.......

They made chili from both noodles and beans.

Ours had both. Then we added the garlic, onions, and sour cream.

---

"Time is simply the mechanism that keeps everything from happening all at once."

NO noodles. Beans ok. Bernie that looked great except for the mushrooms. :-)

I especially liked the "wine" choice for pairing. :-D


Sour cream is awesome on anything BTW.

Now you guys got me wanting to get out the crock-pot and make some chili this weekend. :-)

On that note, this stuff is awesome with tortilla chips (though not very good for you):

LOL! You're right:D

Bernie, you can ignore EVERYTHING I said! Your UK chili recipe (US chili is a different beast) is perfect! I assumed the chili powder was plain unknown ground up chili peppers but it's not:

Sainsbury's Hot Chilli Powder 33g
Ingredients:
Cayenne Pepper, Paprika, Cumin, Oregano, Garlic
(you'll have to take my word for it, because linking to the Sainsbury's website doesn't work)

As for the Pasillas, I'm guessing they are next to impossible to find in the UK. Maybe that obnoxious Thomasina Something sells them in one of her Wahaca (Oaxaca) restaurants...
