Do you have a good recipe for banana bread? I've been looking for one!

Also, what do tuna fillets taste like? I've only ever had the canned stuff...

I use a vegetable steamer, one of these. Steam them for 20 -25 minutes, until still a slight bit firm in the center.

The sauce is 4 tablespoons of mayo, 1 teaspoon mustard, 1 tablespoon of horseradish sauce. It's an awesome sauce for cauliflower, broccoli, or brocciflower. You can either dip or just drizzle it over the veggies.

20 minutes to steam veggie? i think you can do much faster with a steamer insert on a sauce pan

Possibly, but you still have to get the water to boiling with a steamer insert (which I also have). 20 minutes is from initially switching it on to finish and with the timer on the steamer on it it's controlled easily and shuts off automatically. Even though it's a single-tasker in a way Alton Brown might not approve of it's a convenient device I've used for years and does a great job of steaming veggies.

The ahi tuna tastes (and looks) almost exactly like pork. Like chops or steaks. It's flakier in texture, but otherwise, just about like pork.

The best recipe I have for banana bread is old and inelegant, but tastes wonderful. It's the one from the old plaid BHG 'New Cook Book' that I have that's probably 20 years old. I don't usually measure the bananas carefully (just throw two or three in the mixing bowl, depending on how big they are, without bothering to mash them up..the mixer handles it fine) and I never add nuts.

Banana (nut) Bread

1-3/4 cups flour
1-1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup shortening
2 eggs
2 tbsp milk
1 cup mashed ripe banana
1/4 cup chopped nuts

Stir together dry ingredients (not including the sugar) and set aside. In mixer bowl, beat sugar and shortening with electric mixer until light, scraping sides of bowl often. Add eggs, milk. Alternate adding parts of dry ingredients and banana to creamed mixture, beating until smooth. Fold in nuts.
Turn into lightly greased loaf pan and bake at 350f for 60-65 mins until a wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.

Ok, how I usually make it: beat together sugar and shortening, add milk, eggs, and bananas (usually just thrown in, sometimes I mash them with a fork a little.) Dump in dry ingredients and beat until smooth. Omit nuts. Bake as above.
