Pickled pork/2 recipes

This salad is subtle and very refreshing. There are a variety of textures-chewy cold noodles (bean thread noodles, some call them cellophane noodles 'cause when you boil them they become clear), crunchy sesame seeds, and crunchy cucumber slices. Sugar salt, and vinegar combine harmoniously, each understated but very much present.

Simple and easy to make. These clusters are chocolaty and nutty. Great flavor and texture make everyone want a second one. Make them for Christmas and be sure to make enough, you will receive rave reviews.

This slaw is a great side dish with burgers, pulled pork, BBQ, or any succulent meaty dishes. Loved the dilled pickles in the slaw and the pickled juice in the dressing, which really accomplish the flavor. It's refreshing, and also very low in calories and fat.

Made this recipe for dinner yesterday, and it was light, tasty and I absolutely loved it. I didn't have asparagus on hand, so I used broccoli instead, and it worked just fine. I also added half chopped red bell peppers to make the dish more colorful and appealing.

Southern Living meets the East. Sweet mashed potatoes with a modern Asian twist.

This way of roasting a turkey produces all the good looks and moist flavor of a near perfect Turkey. Show is off at the table before carving. Fresh herbs and aromatics inside the bird create a wonderful combination of slow roasted flavor.

Next time make your own sauerkraut instead of store-bought, it's so easy to make, and there is no comparison between this two versions. Homemade one tastes a lot better, I just made my second bunch. I finished the first bunch within 3 days :-)
