Cooking tip from this thread on the SJGames forums (I believe you need to be signed in to read it)

Boil bratwursts in beer to get some of the fat out and give the sausages some additional flavour:
tshiggins Wrote:They broil the brats in beer (I prefer a slightly hoppy brown ale, IBU no more than about 30) to cook them through, and then after the beer has caramelized on the outside of the brats, they toss them on the grill to sear. They then serve the brats on a fresh kaiser roll.
Substitute your own favourite beer, of course.

No, but I read every thread -- even if I'm not interested in the topic.  I shouldn't miss one.

Oh, I can point you at one. If you have a nearby Asian grocery that sells Otafuku products, you can get their batter mix and the sauce (great sauce), and there's a recipe on the back of the mix. We make that every few weeks. (In fact, we're overdue, and Peg's mom wants to try it...)

I also recommend a couple videos on YouTube. Look for "Cooking With Dog okonomiyaki". Cooking With Dog is not what it sounds like -- it's a Japanese cooking show hosted by a grey french poodle named Francis, who narrates the recipe in English while "Chef" makes it. I kid you not. There are a couple okonomiyaki episodes, for both original Hiroshima style and Kyoto style. (We prefer Kyoto style.)

And while you're on YouTube, there's another video -- look for "Japan in Motion Season 8 #7 -- Okonomiyaki & Otafuku Sauce" on YouTube, which gives a lot of information on okonomiyaki and its history. Surprise fact: Okonomiyaki is not some traditional food with centuries of history; it is the child of the atom bomb -- it grew out of makeshift meals made with food supplies brought in to Hiroshima by the Allies after the end of WWII, and it wasn't called that until the late 40s-early 50s.
EDIT:  Here are the videos:

This week's radio recipes: "Canadian dishes by Ottawa chefs"
  • Arctic char with Birch Confit Fingerling, Wild Blueberry Molasses, Hakurei Turnips, and Blistered Chives
  • Alberta Rye Whiskey Miso — Rhubarb Strawberry Glazed Tofu Skewers
  • Ontario Rhubarb Strawberry Compote
  • Saskatchewan wild rice pilaf with Yukon morel mushrooms with Ontario beet root to shoot and garlic scapes
  • Kimchi Perogies
  • Bannock and Berry Grunt

Canada routinely goes beyond "fusion cuisine" and straight into "creole cuisine"...

As someone who's gotten used to thinking of two ounces (approximately 57 grams) of dried pasta as one serving, 200 grams seems like a lot of pasta for two people.
As someone who's trying to go seriously low carb, I'm going to have to see if one of those egg and cream cheese noodle recipes will work as a substitute.
