Help! Need to retrieve recipe I posted here

[wryter2000]

I know we have a DU cookbook where we posted recipes. How can I find it?

TIA

[MADem]

1. Why not use the DU google feature in the upper right corner?

Put in the name of the recipe and see how you do....

[sandnsea]

2. Sometimes I go to google itself

I put in democraticunderground.com, then I click more pages. Then you can put in wryter2000 and one of the obscure ingredients in your recipe - and hopefully it'll pop right up.

4. in search box, after search term, put "site:www.du.com" (spelled out and no quotes)

so, in Google search box, type:

recipe word site:www.democraticunderground.com

this will have Google just search the site specified for the search term specified

Or, use the DU-specific search function as mentioned above

[sandnsea]

19. the above box

sometimes doesn't work as well as going straight to google. I've got no idea why because it shouldn't make a difference. Otherwise, yes, I'm referring to the "site" method of searching on google. It just seems to work better.

[wryter2000]

16. That worked!

It was in another thread. I'd forgotten about that thread completely.

Thanks, all.

3. Was it your Cornbread/Cornpone recipe?

If so I have it

[wryter2000]

7. I don't think that was mine

Thanks, though. I'm looking for my clam chowder recipe. I think I put it here.

[Taverner]

8. Ahhh. can I have it?

And - do I need fresh clams?

[wryter2000]

9. If I find it

I should warn you, though, it's not thick. It's the way my Gloucester granny used to make it, but there's no thickening.

I didn't find mine, but there are lots of clam chowder recipes on DU if you put it in the search box in the upper right.

[Taverner]

12. Ahhhh is it Manhattan or New England?

I have a great Seattle Chowder recipe - uses smoked salmon in a cream base!

[wryter2000]

17. Yum

Chowder is always white. Salmon isn't traditional, but I bet it's yummy!

[Taverner]

24. It's not traditional at all

Uses Oregon Red Potatoes if you can get them

And the smoke is not overpowering

[wryter2000]

27. Well, okay

Where's the recipe? :)

[uppityperson]

21. can I come over for soup?

[wryter2000]

23. I'll e-mail you some

It's a very easy recipe. My grandmother taught me how to make it when I was a little kid.

15. I think I found it : wryter2000's New England Clam Chowdah

1. wryter2000's New England Clam Chowdah
(Note: there is no such thing as Manhattan or New York clam chowder. That may be a very nice clam soup with tomatoes (none has ever passed my lips), but it's not chowdah. All chowdah is white.)

2 small or one large can of chopped clams
2 slices of bacon
1 Tbs butter
1/2 medium onion
1 small baking potato
clam or fish broth, lobster broth, or bottled clam juice or even water
milk, half-and-half, or cream
more butter
salt (if necessary) and pepper

Drain claims, reserving liquid. In heavy pot, cook bacon until crisp. Remove and drain, keeping about 1 Tbs of bacon fat in pan. Peel onion and slice thinly. In the bacon fat and a Tbs of butter, cook onion until translucent. Peel and cube potato. Add to pot and cover with reserved clam juice from cans and enough broth to cover the vegetables. Cook until potato is tender but still holds the shape of cubes. Add clams and crumbled up bacon. Add milk until it's the right color and flavor. If desired, add a bit more butter. Taste for salt and pepper.

Heat gently until hot but not boiling. Serve.

[wryter2000]

18. That's it

I can recreate it from memory, but cutting and pasting is easier. :yourock:

14. Was it your recipe for disaster? n/t

[wryter2000]

25. Sure

Take one Bush. Add one Cheney. Mix with a huge military and trillions of dollars of tax money. Allow to fester.

Voila.
