Use it as the vinegar component of a salad dressing?

I'll give that a shot tomorrow, thanks!

Fancy pickled eggs? I've done some with beet vinegar and they turn out awesome.

....and I'll try this with the remainder on Thursday!

Is this the inspiration in Quebec for the hot chicken sandwich?

I suspect the hot sandwich goes further back. Most dishes were "inspired" by being the only things on hand. It's just a simple use of leftovers.

Chicken sandwich - Wikipedia

The hot chicken sandwich or simply "hot chicken" (Quebec French: sandwich chaud au poulet) is a type of chicken sandwich consisting of chicken, sliced bread, and gravy (which is generally poutine sauce). The sandwich is usually served with green peas and commonly found in Eastern Canadian cuisine. It's especially popular in Quebec and is often considered one of the province's staple dishes.[7][8] Since it is so commonly found in eateries of Quebec (Rôtisserie St-Hubert, Valentine, e.g.) and less seen outside the province, many Québécois regard it as a part of Quebec cuisine and believe it to have originated in the province.[7] This combination of chicken, gravy, and peas is known by its own term: galvaude,[7] seen in poutine galvaude.
Although less featured in other areas of North America, the sandwich is also found in small diners from the Canadian Maritimes[9] and throughout the Southeastern United States.[10]
The sandwich was a working-class dish already common and well established in North American cuisine by the early 1900s[11] and featured on the food menus of pharmacists and druggists of the time.[12] Due to its ease of preparation and its minimal costs, the sandwich was also widely served in the mess halls and cafeterias of the mid-1900s.[13][14]
This style of sandwich often makes use of leftovers from a previous meal. Substituting turkey for the chicken would make a hot turkey sandwich[15] and substituting roast beef makes a variety of the roast beef sandwich.[16]

TOETO of course,just not a fan. Was introduced to kokoretsi ions ago and can still taste it. lol.

I don't know why but I've got the urge to go to the local diner and order "Un hot-chicken"

I’ve never tried kokoretsi, looking at some of the pics appears to be a little more ‘miscellaneous’ looking which would probably throw me off too. My ex-boss was Scottish and used to host an annual charity golf tournament with the whole haggis ceremony, was terrified the first time but after a few shots of Scotch courage found it to be like a spiced dry mince pudding. Started to crave it after, even resorted once to canned haggis, would not recommend the latter

The one restaurant I'm thinking of probably does, it's a typical family resto. But I haven't had one in over 30 years, so I wouldn't bet on it.

Hot chicken = dish served on Mondays at the school cafeteria with the leftover chicken from the week before

Or at least that's what I remember from 25 years ago

Is there really anything sold in a grocery store more revolting, unnecessary, and overall inedible than a can of peas?

I have seen canned potatoes and I can't even imagine.

There was a time I ate canned peas and I don't know how I did it.
