read somewhere that if you add salt to a dish after it is cooked, you need only 70% of it. but read somewhere else that adding salt after cooking is suicidical.

It seem my post from yestarday has been removed, a bit prudish if you ask me. Whatever, on request of those of you who expressed interest, I will post my menu and comments after my visit on September 20th.

Hello,
I've set a budget of 5 euro per dinner for two and would like to know if anyone would like to share some (cheap and easy)recipes?
Here's what we had today
Shepherd's Pie
500g ground beef - 1.45euro
1 onion (no idea...10 cents?)
About 5 large potatoes (maybe 50 cents or even less)
Store bought pastry sheets (1.3 euro)
5 carrots (small) (about 0.30)
Salt, pepper and Worchester sauce
---
Total: 4 euro max.

I highly recommend the goat with coriander, old leiden with cumin, goat with herbs, and 40 month old cheese. Ask the owner - a very tall man - for some…

The problem is that that particular kind of flour is IMPOSSIBLE to get here in Buenos Aires (a city where asian and european products are muchy easier to get than peruvian or venezuelan ones...)
I can find good White corn flour but arepas don't work out well with that one... I suspect…

Hello. I'm new to this thread but I posted this in TTYC and thought this might be an even better venue:
I'm guessing that we may have an expert or two on here. Our local beer store (in upper NW) has a great selection and we have two bottles left before an influx of company this weekend.
