He does a lot of Julia Child recipes, but also has a series where he makes a dish from each country. When he did Albania, he made byrek, which is a lot like spanakopita. Being a Greek by marriage, I love me some spanakopita and was intrigued by making my own phyllo dough. So I did! I'm so impressed with myself! It actually wasn't too hard, but the commercial phyllo is more consistent and looks better. Still, I'm glad I tried. I'd make the byrek again, but with commercial dough. 2 1 2 1 Link to comment

Making phyllo dough from scratch was a challenge on Bake Off a few years ago. I was mesmerized, but I would never, EVER try it at home! Kudos to you! I've made bagels from scratch a few times, and its fun, and they taste great, but way too much hassle. Easier to go down the street to Bagel World.

I don't think making puff pastry or phyllo from scratch is worth it... store-bought is good enough vs the effort required to make it. I do sometimes make my own handheld pies from scratch, though usually when I have company and usually from yeast-raised dough. My favorite fillings are ground beef and rice (with plenty of herbs and spices), chicken liver pate, and a kind of fermented cabbage with hard-boiled eggs. All quite traditional for where I am from though there are plenty of other traditional ones too, like potato. And green onion and egg, which I heartily dislike. 3 Link to comment

CrazyInAlabama March 16, 2023 Share March 16, 2023 (edited) So lunch is 2 lbs of hamburger, to go in spaghetti sauce. ALong with a giant amount of oil. I can't believe he had a huge bowl of spaghetti, with tons of meat (I bet with all of the hamburger grease in it), just for him, and drinks out of the gallon milk jug. I'm nauseous from seeing him eat what he called spaghetti sandwiches. He ate the entire tupperware of spaghetti with only small bowls for daughter and Grandma. So, his daughter only met Grandma Absent once before this, and she's not that young. Why didn't the mother slow down? They're lucky they're not both dead from a car accident. I'm wondering if that car has insurance, registration, and mom has a driver's license. However, as a long time view of TV judge shows, I'm guessing I know the answer to all of those questions. It's only 7 hours from OKC to Dr. Now's. Edited March 16, 2023 by CrazyInAlabama 3 Link to comment
