How do you cook a 6 pound ham?
I place in 2" deep pan lined with foil. I pour a can of coca cola over it and bake for 1 hour in a 325 degree oven. I baste it every 15 minutes but if you cover it with foil
also, twice should be sufficient. This gives the ham a gingery flavor and enhances the
flavor overall. I have also covered it with onion rings and honey,but while that tastes
wonderful,it ruins it for sandwich making.
How long should you bake 40 potatoes?
The quantity of potatoes does not alter the cooking time. But the size of potato or potato pieces affects the time it takes for them to boil. 1, 10 or 100 potatoes of similar size will require the same cooking time when boiled. But larger potatoes take longer to boil than small potatoes. Cut the potatoes into pieces of approximately the same size, and they will all be done at about the same time.

What temperature and how long do you cook a 19 lb turkey?
Defrosting: From the freezer to the fridge: 1 day in the fridge per 5 pounds.
19 lbs would be about 4 days in the fridge.
Cooking: 325 degrees for about 4 hours.
The rule is about 15 minutes per pound.
It's better to get a recipe and follow their directions, since some recipes say 350 to 400 degrees and some say longer than 4 hours (and depends on if it's stuffed or not).
This just gives you an estimation so that some people aren't trying to defrost a turkey the night before Thanksgiving and think they can bake it in an hour.

What is the difference between cornstarch and flour?
To be blunt, the term corn flour has been rendered useless by its multiple and diverse meanings. In the UK, corn flour refers to the white, powdery corn derivative that we call cornstarch in the USA. In the USA, corn flour, depending on the source, can refer to very finely ground white or yellow corn meal, corn meal mix (often used in corn bread), or the semi-fine ground corn meal used in tortillas and other native American/Mexican dishes. Thus, consider the source and try to apply some common sense when using a recipe calling for non-specific corn flour.

What puddings could a Jew eat?
First, for the purposes of this question, I am narrowing the analysis to Jews who keep kosher, e.g. follow the dietary laws, and also ignoring any personal allergies.
Jews can eat pretty much any dessert, except certain types of cheeses (which may use non-kosher rennet) and alcohols (wines that were not subject to mevushal). However, if the preceding meal was a meat meal, the dessert must be non-dairy, must be prepared without any dairy, and must be prepared koshered utensils (utensils that have been properly washed and/or have never had contacted with dairy).

How much is a part pertaining to measurement?
When a recipe calls for a "part" something, it comparable to a ratio. For example, if a drink recipe calls for 1 part sugar and 3 parts water, this means that the ratio of sugar to water is 1:3. If you put in 1 cup of sugar, you would need 3 cups of water. Two cups of sugar would need 6 cups of water, etc.
A "part" is just what it sounds like. It's a part of the final product. The size of the part varies and does not have it's own set measurement. It is only in relation to the measure of the other ingredients.

What can you substitute for a currants in a recipe?
I would try a mixture of not-soft fruits and treat them as though they were cranberries - with a short sugar boil. Apples, oranges, or blueberries would be a selection.
You may want to add a dash of cinnamon, & nutmeg.
Good luck!
12/27/2010-------- I experimented and made a mix that was fab! I don't do percise measurements when cooking, so you'll have to experiment with quantities. Chop about 3/4 to 1 cup of dried sour cherries and peel and chop an apple into small cubes (use a gala or some sweeter apple that has a more firm texture).
Place on medium flame in a small sauce pan with maybe a 1/4 cup of water (maybe a little less or more, you'll have to judge) and 2 tsps or sugar. When sugar has melted and fruit mixture has started to boil, taste to see if the sugar level is good for you. Mixture will taste sweeter when hot so if you think it is too sweet, it will mellow when cooled. When fruit is soft and most of the liquid has evaporated, turn off the flame. Place in a bowl and put in refrigerator to cool.
From there you can possibly add orange rind to the mixture to vary the taste. Would love to know what people think! This is a very good sub for people who can't have cranberries because they are on the anticoagulant coumadin.
