   I would like to try making homemade pasta noodles sometime.  I have never made them, but I bet they would be fun to try.

   I would like to try my hand at authentic pizza. I'm one for working and reworking a recipe until it's perfect. I think I could do something wonderful with pizza.

      We have done many a pizza homemade and it is indeed a much better food experience than restaurant or heaven forbid store bought frozen.

      I have done California rolls which are similar, it's all in the technique not hard to do, I use wax paper for rolling rather than the mats - MUCH easier also wet your fingers as you go along.

   I've always wanted to make rugelach. It's a Jewish pastry of Ashkenazic origin. My favorite type is filled with apricot and walnuts. Someday I'm going to bite the bullet and make them!

      This sounds fabulous and like a great hub idea that hasn't been done yet perhaps too

   I have never done my own turkey before. So who knows, with Thanksgiving coming up, this could be my year to try it out for the first time!

      I recommend brining it - you can't go wrong with a good brine.  The meat will fall off the bone.  I do the turkey every year despite being vegetarian lol - everyone loves my turkey

   It may sound nasty, but rabbit. I have always wanted to try rabbit, not the making of it, but cooking it and trying a taste.

      I've had it baked with BBQ sauce and it turned out great.  Rabbit is a better choice, when compared to a squirrel, because they have a lot more meat on their bones.  Now, will somebody bring her a pre-cleaned rabbit so she can cook the thing!  LOL!

      I tried this as a kid and wasn't impressed, but it may have been the cook more than the meat itself? .  Good luck with it though.  You can have the rabbits in my garden if you like lol.

   Hand pulled chinese noodles. It's a technique thats suppose to take years to master, but results in fantastic noodles with amazing texture. I'm a bit of a pasta/noodle fanatic. I've made just about all the other noodles out there but that one I have yet to try ^_^  There is just something fantastic about homemade noodles!   Good luck with your pasta noodles! I assume you're referring to the Italian variety ^_^ When it comes to those I just love spinach or sun dried tomato fettuccine tossed with a little butter and parmesan... mmmm ^_^

      I'd like to try just about any type of homemade noodle actually as I've never done it.  I have a raging gluten intolerance though so I have to do a "non-wheat" noodle

      Boy... I don't know how you and others cope with a gluten intolerance... I'd go crazy! It would be like living without chocolate or water    Sorry!  I hope you can find some good gluten free noodle recipes. A quick google search showed quite a few

   I've thought about trying alligator meat, but I'm yet to order the stuff.  It is something about eating reptiles, that sort of turns me off.  However, I heard it was good...  Has anyone tried alligator meat before?

   I'm not about to go vegetarian, and most certainly I'd not willingly adopt a vegan diet, however, I do not think I've ever eaten any tofu, and I'd like to try it.
   
   I wouldn't even think of tofu as a substitute for meat - that way, I'd have less of a problem with being disappointed in it.  I like to cook, so I think I'd like to get some of the stuff and see what I could do with it

      being a vegetarian is a good thing, but not for everyone.  If you are going to experiment with tofu it is a "texture thing" with it - the best way to enjoy it is to get extra firm, freeze, thaw, then press out the water first good luck

    I bought a pasta maker a few months ago and have been eyeballing it since, hoping for the day when I have enough courage to attempt gluten-free noodles. That day is not today. Perhaps tomorrow? Or next week, next week sounds better.

       hub about it when you do it and let me know if you are successful, perhaps I'll consider buying a pasta maker if I can do GF noodles in it

       Those are fairly easy to do and very good.  There are a lot of different ways to do it also.

       artichokes aren't so bad, it's a texture thing with them for most people.  They're very good in dips with spinach also

       I think homemade ketchup would probably be better than store bought even.  I know tomato sauces sure are.
