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.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

Where can I get Lamb stock? What is a good substitute?
You can substitute beef stock, or a combination of half beef and half chicken stock. Both Knorr and Oxo make lamb stock cubes but depending where you live you may have to order them online as not all stores carry those flavors.
