Paula Deen - A NUT

Trilby · 11-25-2009, 06:05 PM

perusing thanksgiving day recipes I came across this:

Deep-Fried Cranberry Sauce Fritters

by Paula Deen

Deep frying cranberry sauce seems so very wrong - but, I bet it's good. I also wonder if ol' Paula is Scottish. They seem to want to fry everything, too. Where is bebop? Where is a Scottish person when you need one? typical - at the fry shop.

Oh, I saw her make those - they were NASTY looking! (But the audience seemed to think they were yummy!)

I can not stand that woman.

lol. I can't,either. I can't stand any of them, really. Now that I have one clue about cooking - I can be more discriminating about who I take advice/recipes from.

I do like the barefoot contessa - I have one of her cookbooks and it's ok.

I like marcella hazan....

Sorry. Too late. Your Cellar Santa has already sent you Paula Deen: Season 1.

I like Diners, drive-ins and dives. And Iron chef.

can't be any crazier than the turducken. I saw this on Paula's show, and am like WTF? I have to tell the Cellar about this.

but I searched, like a good girl, and notice it's been discussed before. But seriously--turducken WTF?

A smaller scale American edition of Stuffed Camel, Cloud.

The right way to do turducken, is to remove all the bones from the three birds. Then you can slice through it like a jellyroll, for maximun effect. That's a shitload of work, though.

Don't forget a layer of stuffing between each bird and inside the last one. Extra points if you use three different kinds of stuffing.

A friend made this for Christmas dinner a year or two ago. The meat was very good. My only issue is that I like crispy skin which didn't happen on the 'underbirds'.

I just guessing, but I wouldn't be suprised to find 'deep fried turducken' out there.

I may need to try that for X-mas.

I read that's a no-no. Deep fried birds work, because the oil is also cooking from the inside. A Turducken is basicly solid and would be underdone, unless you fucked up the outside.

Here ya go.

We're having turducken for Christmas dinner.
The nice people at Tesco have already done all the hard work though.

I mis-spelled it in my previous post (turduckhen).

Turducken may be WTF health-wise, but it sounds yummy to me. Me wanna try.

I'd like to hit Paula Deen in the face with a ham!

Never mind...
