asdfghjkl: so did you eat it when it burnt down.$

qwertyuiop: i’m not a fan of burnt chulent!!!!!

qwertyuiop: cash it is, hold while i do to my own private family bank in the next room!!!

I love to hear these cholent ideas. Last week I added a little Terriyaki sauce to the cholent. It gave it a real nice spicy flavor. Another trick, after u add enough water, if u r afraid the cholent will dry up, add oil on top. Oil doesnt evaporate, so neither will the water beneath it. I always add potato kugel to the crock pot, I put it in a crock pot bag and i punch a few tiny holes in the bag. The Kugel then sits overnight in the cholent and it gets a really awesome flavor. Remeber that potatoes eat salt, so if add a lot of potatoes to ur cholent u will need to add more spicing. It works both ways. If u ever add to much salt by mistake, ( my husband once poured salt and the cover came out, the salt disolved so fast that we couldnt take it out ) stick in a few extra potatoes to save the cholent.

When it comes to Kishke, I find Mealmart frozen kishke is THE BEST!. I have tried so many recipes theirs tops it off!

I also find flanken fabulous meat for cholent, not that I’ve tried too many other meats honestly.

ames- we keep the kugel & kishke wrapped in silver foil and at the top of the chulent, but inside the crockpot. It gets very dark and yum. On the otherhand- I happen to like my sister’s chulent where she puts a lot of kishke inside the chulent- very chunky & tasty

my daughter likes to put a can of baked beans in it, too.

i am eating cholent right now!!! i put it up like 7 hrs ago on the stove then swithched it to the blech. the cr should stand for the cholent room starting thursday till motzai shabbos

flatbush27: i had chulent for supper tonight!!!! yeah the CR=CHULENT ROOM on thursday nights!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don’t get Thursday night chulent either. We don’t eat meat Thursday nights. (unless there is a seudas mitzvah)

Asdf, cumin is also used alot in Mexican cooking.

asdfghjkl: the chulent you gave me tonite was yours, right??$ because if it was, it was amazing.$

Ames, we put the potato kugel in a crock pot bag so it stays neater and I can serve neat slices. I punch little holes in the bag so the cholent and kugel can “share” their tastes. The reason i dont use a crock pot bag and not silver foil is because I heard it is not healthy to eat cooked silver foil and the cholent will absorb the aluminum. Crock pot bags arer very cheap, I bought a couple of boxes in Closeout connections for .99 box.

The kishke i put in a crock pot bag only if i am putting in a half or quater of kishke loaf. If I put in a whole loaf then i put it straight in, for the same reason. I put the kishke in with the wrapper, and I cut it ogg b4 serving. Beware of words on the wrapper, one side has words the other side doesnt (on mealmart pack.)

When i serve cholent I like a neat plate. A piece of kugel, a nice slice of kishke, coldcuts sometimes and then cholent in the center.

The oil adds to the flavor of everything, and it is for sure a huge help to keep in the water. We started adding oil when we felt we were constantly adding water. U dont want ur cholent to dry out. Thats a real killer! Remember as u add water to the cholent u will need to add spicing…

right, asdf, she probably goes to Closeout Connection in Timbuktu.

ames: yay i’m so happy to hear that!!! you ganna make chulent again next week? did he ask for it again?

by the way i searched for “pot” and wound up with ASCII art of drugs. didn’t think the mods would appreciate it so i searched again under “pots” – that’s why you wound up with more than one chulent pot…

hey who’s up for chulent? it’s 12:45 AM – perfect timing!

yeah, i made my mom save it. if i don’t eat it now she’s gonna dump it in the morning. why?

moish01: enjoy it buddy!!! save me a potato please!!!

mazal77: really you make it pareve always??? i don’t know how fast i’m comin then!!!

ames, you’re not gonna sleep… have a milkshake instead

(mods – i know this is off topic- the thread is really fleishigs, but let it go…)

ames, enjoy your coffee. remember, only decaf.

Asdf… We have cold cuts and sephardi finger foods, usually made with meat, and tons of salad. I add mushrooms to my parve chulent, so it takes the place of the meat. I hardly miss using meat in my chulent now. Now, i really go to get off the laptop. G’night!!

ames: flankin like you mentioned without the bones, yeah would fall apart!!! y do ya take off the bones???? kalichul meat doesn’t usually fall apart!!! the meat gives the chulent an amazing taste, i can’t imagine not adding meat!!!

ames: ha i already knew the answer before postin it!!! btw the gizzards were great in my chicken soup–yummmmy!!!!!!!!

ames: thanx!!! btw what in the world are you doin up at this hour????
