  1. This is a weekly pointer to the rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion
    file. If you do not want to see it every week, you should put the
    title, which will not change, into your killfile.

    The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file is posted monthly to
    rec.food.cooking, rec.food.recipes, rec.answers and news.answers. It is
    also available as an easy-to-navigate frames version at

    <http://vsack.homepage.t-online.de/rfc_faq.html>.

    There is both a link to a no-frames version and a built-in no-frames
    content for older or text-only browsers.

    The rec.food.cooking FAQ and conversion file has two parts. The first
    part covers conversion and equivalence. Tables are given for conversion
    of oven temperatures, food names, weights and measures. Some useful
    substitutions for unavailable ingredients are suggested.

    The second part is more descriptive. It outlines some of the commonly
    discussed topics of rec.food.cooking and explains a number of food
    terms. It also lists other food-related newsgroups and mailing lists,
    as well as food-related FAQs, recipe archives and other food/cooking
    sites.

  2. I don't see any section about cooking in outer space. Any tips for the
    following problems?

    -Everytime they fire up the deep fryer on the Internation Space Station
    to make french fries, the hot oil floats out.

    -Cakes cooked on the moon rise six times too high in the 1/6 gravity.

    -If they burn something, they just can't turn on a vent fan.

    -The salt and pepper shakers don't work. Salt and pepper floats away.

    -When they flip a pancake, it doesn't fall back into the pan.

    -So far there really hasn't been any cooking in space. Only reheating.

    ;-)

  3. Been away a very, very long time... took a look at the files (wondering
    whether any of my recipes made it to the archive), checked the links
    and saw.....
    Stephanie de Silva........wow.....glad to see she (as well as Mimi) are
    still actively involved in rfc!
    Trip down memory lane... ahhh...the good old days! (circa 1984!!!!!!!!
    BC - before children)
    thanks for maintaining Victor...long may you (or somebody equally
    astounding) do so!
    Nice to see some old timers still around. Warms the cockles of one's
    heart.

    Neither SdS, nor Mimi have posted anything on rfc in years,
    unfortunately....
