recipe that I can find.

Papas Con Piņas Y Costillas
(Potatoes with corncobs and pork ribs)
2 kgs (4.4 lbs) potatoes
1 kg (2.2 lbs) salted pork ribs
4 or 5 tender corncobs
Soak the ribs overnight in cold water. Drain and cut the ribs into
several portions and place in a saucepan with fresh water. Add the sliced
corncobs (large chunks, normally cut each one into three). Bring to the
boil and cook until tender. Add the peeled potatoes, cutting the large ones
in half. When the potatoes are boiled, drain off the stock and place the
food on a serving dish. Serve with MOJO VERDE (coriander sauce), crusty
bread and a good local wine.

Subject: Chinese Bread Maybe
I had a Chinese Bread I don't remember where it was dough, with sesame seeds
and like brown sugar, honey or butter. I am not sure how the dough was
cooked but it looked raw but it was done. I am trying to find a reciepe of
what exactly is in it if its all that less or more and how to make. Can you
please help.
Thanks Brenna
Hello Brenna,
The below recipe is the only one I could find.
Phaed
Shao Ping (sesame buns)
1 cup sesame seeds
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
6 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/4 cups water
1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
Vegetable oil for frying
Spread sesame seeds on tray or baking sheet and set aside.
In large mixing bowl, combine salt, sugar, flour and baking powder.
Gradually add water, stirring with wooden spoon to make a smooth dough. Mix
in sesame oil.
Pour dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes. Shape
kneaded dough into a long roll about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Cut into 1
1/2-inch sections, pat each piece into a little ball, and flatten to about
1/2-inch thick. Moisten with a little water and press wet side into sesame
seeds. Coat thoroughly.
Fry cakes, seed side up, in a lightly greased skillet over medium heat for
about 5 minutes but do not let them burn.
Arrange fried cakes seed side up on a baking sheet and bake under preheated
broiler for about 4-5 minutes. They are done when the sesame seeds begin to
turn brown and smell fragrant. Serve hot.

I could not locate such a recipe from Betty Crocker, nor one with raspberry

Subject: Question???
What is the difference with email in a TEXT format or email in a HTML
format? Can you explain this to me & why should I use one over the other?
Thanks Chuck
Hi Chuck,
You know those e-mails that you get that have fancy graphics and pictures in
them? Not the ones that just link to a website, but the ones that have graphics
and fancy formatting in the e-mail itself? Those are HTML format e-mails.
The ones that are just plain text, like this one, are TEXT format.
If you want to send or recive the fancy kind, then you should use html
format and have "receive HTML" turned ON in your e-mail program.
If it makes no difference to you, then turn off HTML formatting in your
e-mail program. It's possible for computer viruses to spread by HTML e-mail,
even with no attachment to the e-mail.
