OT: The Menu Part 23 - The Tripod & Kenny McCormick Edition

[Striiker]

Did you find your mother and I's old pictures again?

You were 23 when the camera was invented

A nibble of kimchi would probably take him out

He'd explode

@Striiker it just hits different in the yellow.

Sitting in the sun room area and eating that…

Speaking of…

 

[Beef Invictus]

@JojoTheWhale surely you are cultured. Give me the details on anchovies.

That soda is obscene

Which is why you saw those pictures in greyscale, Son.

Nice mug

Nice mug

Yeah that’s Tikaani, my old Husky. Immortalized on coffee mugs and coasters.

What about the taco salad bar?

Anchovies are good. You want ideas?

The first thing that comes to mind is the Panzanella Catania salad from a Sicilian place (Zeppoli) in Collingswood.

 

[Tripod]

Used orzo pasta instead of rice, 2 different sausages one smokey, one hot, garlic shrimp, onions, peppers, nice cajun spice!

Sounds great

 

[trostol]

i made a pork roast tonight that turned out pretty amazingly..roasted in some apple juice with brown sugar, garlic and salt rubbed in...

 

[Lord Defect]

Recipes that call for anchovies, then swear that you don’t even taste them, then why include them? If I’m putting something into a meal, it has a purpose and it’s generally to contribute taste.

I'm never going to Collingswood again.

Thanks. I appreciate the slightly easier parking.

It’s just a fish. The difference in quality from good ones to the crap you find most places is enormous. Think of wild caught Pacific Sockeye vs Atlantic grocery store salmon. That’s no longer the same thing. If it’s thrown into a Caesar salad, they’re giving you the cheap ones.

Plus that particular salad uses white anchovies. They have a lighter, fresher taste and less umami than the salt cured ones.

Surströmming is a delicacy. Let's have a party and crack some tins open.

We cracked various tins at my buddies 40th bday party over the weekend. For his birthday, he rented a kitchen in Old City and cooked an 8 course meal for 20 of his friends and family. It was fantastic.

I've never tried anchovies, but I doubt I'd find them offensive. I've eaten whole baby squid before, can't be much different.

I’ve neglected these threads for far too long and for that I apologize.

Recipe?

I had fantastic anchovies last night and I am emboldened to begin using them. I'd like to find white anchovies (the Spanish boquero?) and roll with those, instead of figuring out how to use fully cured brown anchovies as flavor enhancers

Boquerones are the Spanish white anchovies. Most commonly found pickled (packed in oil and vinegar). They're pretty delicious in a million ways. I can tell you where to buy them near me, but they're easy to find online.

Surströmming is a delicacy. Let's have a party and crack some tins open.

My ex was a swede. She forbid it from coming to our house with visitors from Sweden. I didn't get to try it until I bought it myself in Sweden after I left her (story for another day). If you do it right with all the right fixins in a sandwich in the traditional flatbread, it's actually not bad. I went back for a second sandwich.


No idea why this got combined into one reply...
