This recipe is AMAZING! We loved it. I omitted the MSG, just because it's bad for you and added a little brown sugar because I only had abuot 1/8 of a cup of molasses, but other than that I followed it to a tee! Perfect. Very tasty. Made for PAC 2009.

I live in a small town in New York. I am a student, and during the summers, I work two part time jobs. I love to cook. I cook everything and anything, but my true passion is taking a recipe, and truly making it my own. I collect cookbooks, and I am a huge fan of the old Julia Child cookbooks. Besides cooking, I love to do photography, and am constantly reading. I also enjoy singing in the car...haha:) I cook mainly for some very un-picky eaters (aka, my dear family), I am lucky in that respect...but, they seem to constantly only request their favorites:) I will try anything once, and if I like it...I will lick the bowl! ;) <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
