Cooking Tips:
Casserole This term
refers to both a baking dish and the ingredients it contains.
Casserole cookery is convenient because the ingredients are
cooked and served in the same dish. A "casserole dish" usually
refers to a deep, round, ovenproof container with handles and a
tight-fitting lid. It can be glass, metal, ceramic or any other
heatproof material. A casserole's ingredients can include meat,
vegetables, beans, rice and anything else the cook desires.
Often a topping such as cheese or breadcrumbs is added for
texture and flavor.
Creole Cooked with a spicy
sauce containing tomatoes, onions, and peppers: chicken creole;
creole cuisine.
[French créole, from Spanish
criollo, person native to a locality, from Portuguese crioulo,
diminutive of cria, person raised in the house, especially a
servant, from criar, to bring up, from Latin creāre, to beget.] |
