    @16:54 Regarding the pronunciation of 'cornichons', the 'ch' is pronounced like 'sh'. Corn-i-shon. It's a French word. The s on the end is silent in French, but usually people in the US pronounce the s at the end.

    I usually forget what I want to say at the end of the video. The cornichone ? Pickles I chop them fine and add to my tuna or chicken salad along with some cappers. Also really good on bagels and cream cheese 🥯

    The key to gyro meat with ground meat is to mix it very very well. Even in a food processor is good. It really helps the meat be almost paste like (lovely description i know). It's more sliceable that way

    That Naan bread makes the best pizza! We spread pesto sauce on ours, topped with spinach, cooked sausage, sliced fresh Mozarella cheese and fresh or dried basil. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes or until golden brown and cheese is melted. So good! We leave the meat off during Fridays for lent. We’ve also use just regular pizza or spaghetti sauce, mozarella, pepperoni slices, etc.

    So for me and lasagna, while I do not mind Ricotta cheese, I like the flavor of cottage cheese. However, I do not like the consistancy that cottage cheese gives lasagna. One day I had one of those "Ahh Ha!" moments and whipped the cottage cheese in my blender, GAME CHANGER for me!😂💡
