• 588 lingua

    From MICHAEL LOO@1:123/140 to RUTH HAFFLY on Saturday, April 14, 2018 05:52:34
    The couple tablespoons on a reuben is about
    all I can take, not too often at that. Of
    course, I have no discernible German heritage.
    I'll generally have not much more than that at any one time. OTOH, red cabbage I can usually eat more of, depending on the recipe.

    For me, the race, color, or creed of the cabbage
    doesn't make a difference.

    It's as if the airlines were trying to scare me
    off by the catering - anything that can be
    trusted to make me queasy or flatulent, that'll be
    sure to find its way onto my tray.
    Maybe you're just more aware of such foods now.

    It's not new - I made my first complaint to the
    UA management on the subject over 20 years ago.

    It's more the other way around - alcohol is an
    alternative to the drinks. Even with the added
    incentive of the lack of civility and comfort in
    air travel, back in coach I doubt more than 10 or
    15% of the adult passengers partake of adult
    beverages. On flights that offer it for free, the
    shuttles and the internationals, that rate might
    double, but drinkers remain in the minority.
    Either way, people like to have something to drink--and I've read
    "experts" that say flying is dehydrating and you do need to drink
    something. Your choice as to what it is; I usually go for bottled water, sometimes diet Coke. Used to ask for fruit juice a lot more but now I
    don't as they're higher in sugar.

    Other "experts" say that caffeine dehydrates
    just as much. For me, makes no difference, as
    dehydration is not high on my list of
    concerns while flying, being far below the
    danger of fluid-soaked tissues.

    Until the '90s, when some crazy installed weather
    stations in the remotest nooks and crannies of
    Germany (this was a private project), there had
    not ever been a temperature recorded in Europe that
    came close to those in New Hampshire. It supposedly
    has something to do with the wind currents,
    especially that Alberta clipper they talk about.
    Not surpising; I can remember some very cold temps in the Catskills.

    New Hampshire beats New York cold!

    I've seen military on the slopes up there, but
    I've not been in 20 years or more. Presumably the
    requirements for winter school don't change that
    much, though.
    No, but training sites can be closed and others opened up.

    There never was to my knowledge an actual camp there.
    They truck them up from elsewhere and just have the
    run of the White Mountain National Forest, which is
    a multiuse property to begin with.

    There are plenty of so-named places, and probably
    an equal number whose names were changed at one
    time or another. Was Waterloo, Kitchener's
    neighbor, always called that (question for Weller)?
    Don't know but there's a Waterloo, NY in the Finger Lakes region.

    And in Iowa. I've not been to any place by
    that name in any state that I can recall.

    Garbage seems to be a preoccupation among you
    upstate New Yorkers.
    I don't consider myself one any more, haven't for years. But, I can understand the concern of NYC trying to ship all of trash outside of the city. After 9/11 my brother had to supervise the re-opening of a
    landfill on LI that had been closed in May--had to make sure stuff got disposed of properly. I think he supervised its initial closing, IIRC.

    A tough but necessary job.

    That place Tahou's in Rochester names the
    region's most famous dish that, as I recall.

    Whatever's available, canned or fresh.
    For myself, I strongly prefer good-quality
    canned to what's generally available as
    so-called fresh.
    Home grown fresh? We've grown our own tomatoes at various times, usually
    Roma type.

    When I have a good-tasting tomato from any
    source it's a red-letter day. My experience
    is not so discouraging as Other Ruth's,
    however.

    Eggplant and Beef Rollatini with Tomato Sauce
    Hmmmmmm, have to think about it when eggplant comes in season this summer.
    You might actually think of adding Parmesan
    (or, ugh, Romano) to that recipe, which was
    designed with Kashrut in mind.
    I like both of those cheeses, so just might.

    The difference in flavors is so pronounced,
    though. One smells like feet, the other like
    sheep, puke, and feet.

    Title: Pickled Red Cabbage
    Categories: Relishes, Pickles, Spicy
    Servings: 1

    1 Red cabbage (2 lb)
    3 tb Pickling salt
    2 tb Pickling Spice
    5 c Distilled malt vinegar
    2 ts Caraway seeds

    Cut cabbage in fourths and discard center stalk. Shred cabbage finely.
    Layer in a colander with salt and let stand overnight.

    Put Pickling Spice and vineagr into a saucepan. Bring to a boil and boil
    3
    minutes. Remove from heat and cool. When cool, strain and reserve liquid.
    Meanwhile, wash 4 pint jars in hot soapy water; rinse. Keep hot until
    needed. Prepare lids as manufacturer directs.

    Rinse cabbage well under cold running water. Drain thoroughly and mix
    with
    caraway seeds. Pack cabbage into hot jars. Pour cold spiced vinegar over
    cabbage to cover completely. Wipe rims of jars with a clean damp cloth.
    Attach lids and place in canner. Process 10 minutes in a boiling-water
    bath. Store in a cool dry dark place at least 5 days before serving.

    Makes about 4 pint jars.

    NOTE: Use cabbage within 2 months; if left longer cabbage loses its
    crispness. Garnish with an Italian parsley sprig, if desired, and serve
    as
    an accompaniment to cold meats and poultry.

    Hi Michael,

    They're all equal opportunity offenders?

    It's not new - I made my first complaint to the

    Which, sounds like, they ignored.

    Unless we're flying for many hours and I'm dehydrated before boarding,
    I'm not concerned that I'll dehydrate that much during a flight. If the
    flight is several hours, I'll make sure I drink about a bottle of water
    plus maybe a couple of glasses of whatever is offered. Over about 6
    hours flight and I'll drink more, shorter flight and I'll drink less.
    Even on the less than 1 hour flights to/from Kauai/Oahu they served
    drinks and snacks.

    Depends on where in NH/NY.

    Probably some sort of boundaries set for training tho.

    Yes, he's retired from that now.

    That's why we like the local farmer's market.

    Smell may be a bit off putting but the taste makes up for it. YMMV.

    Many years ago we had a trip to Hawaii, visiting four islands. The
    flights between them were pretty much balistic, i.e. climb up and
    approach in a straight arc with no level flight. They were short enough
    that we had time only to share a coke between Gail and I.

    We each had our own drinks--the flight attendants were quite efficient
    on that flight. The flight to Maui was probably about the same length so
    had efficient attendants there also. They had a bit more time to catch
    their breath on the trip to/from the Big Island but we still didn't get anything more than a drink and a small bag of some sort of munchies.
