Somehow I caught your update, but I'll let it stand, never added pork with apples, only cabbage, but in my head, the apples and pork should work well. I will try it out soon.

Thanks so much, eriedearie!! Gonna have to give it a try soon.

**eriedearie** · April-09-09, 11:10 PM

You're welcome AH! I think you'll enjoy it.

**gazhekwe** · April-10-09, 08:37 AM

I made something like your Haluska last night, Eriedearie. I couldn't resist adding some shredded cabbage, onion strips and bacon. We had Amish Spinach noodles. That was really good!

**eriedearie** · April-10-09, 11:43 AM

Gaz - that sounds good - did you cook the cabbage and onions?

**gazhekwe** · April-10-09, 04:06 PM

Yes, I did. First I fried the bacon, then added the onion slivers for awhile, then the shredded cabbage. After the cabbage was wilting, I added the bacon broken in pieces, then the cooked noodles and cottage cheese. It was really good. I think bacon makes everything better. We grew up with bacon fat as our principal cooking fat, and I still rely on it lots.

I'm still using a 1950's era cheese grater. Isn't there something better nowadays ?
We'll, my life won't make a drastic change, but can't life be a little easier ?

**eriedearie** · April-11-09, 07:21 PM

Bigb - yeah there is something easier - buy cheese already shredded

**Bigb23** · April-11-09, 08:17 PM

I was bored - and thanks for the update Erie. Hey - I've heard they have sliced bread now.

Big, I love it. Thanks.
BTW, you can grate cheese in a food processor, but I still prefer the box grater even though it is a bitch to clean

And you better not be the 'Leaving' plate.

I've got a "bachelor" sized food processor. But all those parts to clean -

I made my pizzas already, I just thought that SOMEBODY came up with something new. I mean, it's not like we're still in the 2nd century.

In the second century, they probably hacked the cheese apart with an iron sword. Lots of rust on the mozzarella

**Bigb23** · April-11-09, 09:06 PM

You mean there's another way to do it ?

I guess they could have pushed it through the chain mail or the visor on their armor.
Mmmmm, tasty.

**Bigb23** · April-11-09, 09:33 PM

Okay - you have me stumped there, J Cole. I was trying to think of something funny, and all I could think of was .....................

**eriedearie** · April-11-09, 09:34 PM

Oh yeah, I've heard about that sliced bread deal. They're gettin' awfully fancy, eh?

You know, like a giant grater.

I'm kind of at a loss on this one, too.

**Bigb23** · April-11-09, 10:29 PM

Okay - I've had my fun - here's the link for the license plates.

Happy Easter to all my fellow foodies. Hope your glazes were perfect.

**gazhekwe** · April-12-09, 09:57 AM

Oh, cool! Thanks for the license plate.

As for grating cheese, the fastest is still the old hand grater, unless you buy it already grated. I keep a brush in my sink for cleaning up things like that. If you don't already have one, get one like this, it will make a thousand cleanup tasks easier for you.

I have the exact brush and it does make the kitchen clean ups way easier! - Mine is from the Dollar Store.
