Just got a Dutch Oven for Christmas. I do have a hand me down from grandpa skillet. I'll dig it out when I get home and see if I can get a decent pic.
Also just for fun: my granddad ran a rural general store. He used to cut and carve meat long before commercial meat slicers. Mom just gave me all his old "Old Hickory" butcher knives. I'll try to get a good pic of them as well. |

Olive bread using two cast iron skillets (both same size, one as a lid as a Dutch Oven): http://img855.imageshack.us/img855/2544/06dec2011003.jpg http://img861.imageshack.us/img861/2238/06dec2011004.jpg One skillet older than any of us, the other older than most of us here. I'm close to buying a cast-iron Dutch oven when I find one I like. I've heard of those ones that were sold at Wal Mart, but have never found one. I don't ever want to own "Lodge" cast iron I don't think - though I think I heard the old Lodge stuff was better than today's. That looks awful good...Could you give me/us the recipe? |

I don't ever want to own "Lodge" cast iron I don't think - though I think I heard the old Lodge stuff was better than today's. Just curious: What's the reason for your dislike of Lodge? The enameled line is made in China (and if you gave it to me, I'd sell it & get something USA-made...or a gun or knife , but the cast iron is made in South Pittsburg, TN. Now, I don't like the rough finish on the current production stuff...but a few minutes with a sander has solved that to my satisfaction. Again, just curious. David |

Hi, I'm also a big fan of " KIMCHEE "..
My personal suggestions for any " Pickled Cole Slaw Mix ".. 1. Use Rice wine Vinegar, or Cider Vinegar, as it's a bit more mellow in taste. http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/the-benefits-of-apple-cider-vinegar/ 2. Use " Srirachi Chili " .. You can add as much or as little, a bit at a time,.. taste test .. ! http://www.huyfong.com/no_frames/sriracha.htm PAPI |
