New foods I'm trying

So I'm making stuffed eggplant.  The first instruction (core eggplant) already has me stumped.   HOw CAN THIS GO WRONG!?

That's easy, you just hollow out a portion like you normally would if you were about to fuck it.

DELICIOUS EGGPLANT! I LOVES IT!

It was all right.  I don't really know how to cook eggplant, but the stuffing was delicious!

I love eggplant, you'll have to send me the stuffing recipe, I saw some beautiful little indian eggplant at the market the other day, I thought at the time they were cool because you could serve them indivdually like stuffed peppers.

Note to self, eat NOTHING prepared (or even left unattended for any amount of time) at EoC's place...

i used this recipe, only forgot about the rice and didn't use pine nuts, and threw some dates in there, and used chicken instead of beef.

THANK YOU!!

ground chicken or diced?


edited to ask....

Core the eggplants with a sharp knife or, better yet, with an eggplant corer (found in Middle Eastern stores), making sure not to break the skins.

WTF?  I mean if one took that literally......

Tripe.  Is it good? 



I've got the stuff for it, and I'll be making it in a few hours, and I know what it is, and its giving me the heebie jeebies, but I want to know if I like it, and I might as well ask if you spags like it for comparison's sake.

Tripe is just the stomach lining from a cow. It's not the name of a specific dish.

Bible tripe (the kind you find at good pho places) is edible. Honeycomb tripe (the kind the Puerto Ricans use to make menudo) is absolutely disgusting, and this is coming from a person who gleefuly eats things like fish eyes and goat knuckles.

It's a shame too, since menudo is pretty damn good except for the part where it's full of tripe.

  All the store had was honeycomb tripe. 

Also, http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/tripe-madrid-style this is what I'm making.

I've only had a tripe soup at a Polish joint.  Don't know the difference between tripes, but it definitely had a honeycomb look to it.  It's not terrible, but it's definitely a bit of an endeavor to eat.
