[quote]R6: I make my own Caesar dressing

As does every person with a tenth of a lick of pride and taste.

But most people don't think of it as something to beg approval for, since there's nothing to it, whether or not they Signor Cardini's (of Tijuana) original recipe or add the anchovies that he did not.

You get a pass because of your cheerful disposition and "feel good" threads. It IS Christmas, after all.

Kung Pao Chicken.

[quote] Named after Ding Baozhen (1820–1886), a late Qing Dynasty official and governor of Sichuan Province. His title was Taizi Shaobao, which is one of Gongbao (Chinese: 宫保; pinyin: Gōngbǎo; Wade–Giles: Kung1-pao3; lit. 'Palace Guardian').[1] The name Kung Pao chicken is derived from this title, while the use of the character 丁 dīng in the name of the dish is a pun on his surname Dīng, a moderately common Chinese surname that can also be read to mean "small cube" (like the cubes the chicken is diced into for the dish).

Madeleines (small cakes (cookie-sized) made in a special pan).

[quote]would like to see a menu with only named dishes

Probably the closest to that will be the menu of the legendary Chez Cary, the best restaurant in Orange County, California during the 1960s and 1970s. (They misspell it here as "Chez Carey," but it was "Chez Cary.") We lived in the city of Orange, not far from it, and my sister's boyfriend took her there one time. But I never got to eat there. Ultra fancy. Many of the classic dishes here have names.

[quote]Martha Washington Cake, sometimes called Martha Washington's Great Cake. It's a heavy thing. I've read the original took 40 eggs. Even this pared down version takes 10 eggs and weighs 11 pounds.

It's my favorite snack cake.

r173 That recipe does seem daunting. I cannot imagine how many oranges you'd need to make the cup of zest called for. I wonder if they actually meant candied orange peel, since they also direct that it be chopped? If they actually mean zest, the cake must taste overwhelmingly of oranges.

I'm Linzer Torte. Some cookbooks say I'm the oldest known cake. Personally, I just ADORE red currant jelly and almonds.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith. aka "Husband and Wife lung pieces"

Linzer Torte is named for the city of Linz. Are toponyms fair game now, too? If so, I'll be Bufallo Wings.
