A casserole, from the French for "sauce pan," [1] is a large, deep pot or dish used both in the oven and as a serving dish. The word casserole is also used for the food cooked and served in such a dish. Casseroles originate from the ancient practice of stewing meat slowly in earthenware containers. Types of casserole include ragout, hotpot, cassoulet and carbonnade. A distinction may be made between casseroles and stews stewing is a cooking process whereby heat is applied to the bottom of the cooking vessel (typically over a fire or on a hob), whereas casseroling is done in an oven where heat circulates all round the cooking vessel. Braising is similar to casseroling except that the pieces of meat or vegetable are larger and cooked in a smaller quantity of liquid. Casseroles tend to be thicker than soup. However the choice of name is largely a matter of custom; it is possible for the same dish to be described as soup, stew, and casserole. Early 18th century casserole recipes consisted of rice that was pounded, pressed, and used as a filling[citation needed]. Casseroles are cooked in Europe and Canada and the United States, and are found in other forms in many other cultures around the world. The culinary term en casserole (also from French) means 'served in the vessel used for cooking'. Casseroles usually consist of one or two meats or vegetables as the main ingredients. Liquid in the form of stock, alcohol (in the form of wine; for example coq au vin or beef Bourguignon), beer (for example lapin à la Gueuze, gin, or cider) or vegetable juices is added. Further liquids are released from the meat and vegetables during cooking. Binders such as pasta, potato, rice or other grains are added to thicken the sauce. It is cooked slowly and may be served as a main course or a side dish.

1. Willing Women Do Sister Act
June 29, 2008
A single sister act of kindness, reaching out to sisters, mothers, daughters and friends. In my case, my friend was sick with breast cancer. What do you do to support? Do you whip up your favourite chicken casserole recipe, or is the no bake cookies recipe more your thing? I can relate to that! My cooking skills aren't great, so I knitted scarves instead. My knitting isn't much better than my cooking! I knitted for many months, which is saying something! Considering I'm not a knitter, to keep my stitches on the needles, and sides of my scarves straight, was no easy task! I donated my scar... (read more)

April 11, 2008
Eggplant is delicious hot or cold and can be enjoyed marinated, stuffed, roasted, grilled, fried, in a casserole, in stews, or on brochettes.

9. Healty Fried Vegetables
March 24, 2008
Fried vegetable is quite an exotic recipe, a wonderful combination of flavours that develop and permeate the pork as it cooks very slowly. The surprising thing is the casserole takes only 6 minutes or so to prepare from start to finish. Serve it with Thai fragrant rice. All you need to do is arrange the pork in a single layer in the base of a lidded flameproof casserole with a capacity of 4 pints (2.25 litres), then simply mix all the other ingredients (except the cinnamon and star anise) together, give them a good whisk and pour over the pork. Now tuck in the cinnamon sticks and star anise, ... (read more)
