The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Good recipe with some tweaks. Use fresh mushrooms for best results. Saute them with the other vegetables. Skip the flour. You don't need a roux for this.

I altered this recipe so I could use the sausage that I had. I did not have cayenne pepper, mushrooms, or liver. The only other thing I changes was that I used chicken broth instead of beef. I followed the rest of directions and added about 1/4 to 1/3 a cup of water. The house smelled like I was cooking a supreme pizza. The kids loved it, and it can be hard to please them with something new like this. I added chili powder instead of cayenne. It turned out great.
