Cooking Challanged Individual Seeks Advice


Teri Lou

Recommended Posts

Was planning a delicious gourmet dinner tonight, but it really flopped. Instead of a nice creamy sauce for my carbonora it sort of curdled on me. (I served it anyway- hehe and am hoping not to kill anyone). What did I do wrong? I kept the burner on low as I added the eggs and cheese and stirred fairly constantly. Any gourmet cooks out there with advice/ suggestions? (My husband thanks you in advance!!)

When I add the eggs, etc. I move the pan off the heat first so the eggs don't curdle. And beat the crap out of the eggs! I always add some of the pasta water to make the sauce a bit thinner and creamier. The cheese then melts into unctuousness!

Don't let this discourage you from trying it again! Keep experimenting and having fun in the kitchen. :D

Thanks for the response! I LOVE to cook, but my creations tend to either be really good or really UGH :) Will beat the crap out of my eggs next time off the heat!

Beat the crap out of the eggs first and then add off the heat and you'll be fine! :P

      Sorry, I think I got you mixed up with another poster.

      I hadn't been eating gluten free before having the antibody test done. I started eating gluten free after having the test done because the gastro PA told me to eat gluten-free for 6 months. I'm now 3 months in.

      I tend to agree with RMJ. Your doc took the reasonable and practical approach to diagnosis. All things considered, it was the right way to go. However, if you have first degree relatives that show signs of possible celiac disease, urge them to get formally tested before they start the gluten free diet.

      It sounds like you have a very reasonable GI doctor, who diagnosed you based on family history and symptoms after eating gluten. I would consider you lucky! The other option would be to make yourself very sick by doing weeks of a gluten challenge prior to an endoscopy.
