Congrats on the Big 5-0 Val!  You interested in playing along on the FFoF meme?  Swing by Val’s place for more info.

#1. Pasta. How do you tell when it’s done? Do you cook on medium or high?
I tell by either tasting a piece after a certain time or if it’s spaghetti or something you can usually tell by the the “wave” it does in the pot.   Hmm, don’t know that I pay attention.  15 minutes?

#2. Deep frying. What kind of oil do you use?
Canola

#3. Grilling. Do you grill on foil or directly on the grill?
Direct if it’s something like burgers or dogs.  If it’s something that could get messy, we’ll foil it.

#4. Share a recipe that involves cooking something two different ways.  Example, for lasagna you might fry the meat and bake the whole dish.
I happened upon this recipe when looking for something simple for Fall.  It just happened to meet the requirements for this week!

    That recipe sounds really good. I’m going to have to try it. I’m like you, I don’t usually pay attention to my pasta either. I just cook it until it looks right.

    Your pasta waves at you? Very cool. LOL We too put things directly on the grates unless grilling something like veggies. Then we use foil.

    That sounds like it might be tasty. I wonder what would happen if you put some of the cornbread under it…
    Thanks for playing FFOF!

    Hmm, I must make it a point to look for that ‘wave’. I don’t think I’ve noticed it before :) .

    That recipe sounds nice and easy. That’s the kind I like. :)

    I never noticed the pasta wave! I’ll have to check that out next time I make it. :-)
