Mocktail for a warm day. Four ounces each seltzer and pink grapefruit juice plus half ounce house made rosemary syrup.
Took a long nap. My version seems a bit unpopular with a lot of people but I love it. My wife already made some for tomorrow's holiday. Peel some red potatoes and boil them until semi cooked. I like 'em until they're al dente, Italian for slightly firm to the teeth. Cube the potato. add that Boil some eggs just until done but no more unless you like the outside of the yolk be slghtly green. I don't, so we're careful not to over cook the eggs but just until they're hard boiled. Elton Brown has a recipe for cooking hard boiled eggs that is better than our method, meaning more precise, but my wife has good luck with doing it as she senses. Get some naturally fermented dill pickles. Cut them into your opinion of the right size chunks and squeeze the chunks in paper towels to get out the juice. Add that Take the egg yokes alone and put them in a bowl. Add mayonnaise and a tad of yellow mustard to taste. I like about a 1 to 4 ratio. Mash the yolks and make a mixture. Add that Dice some sweet onion into your size of chunks. Add that Take some celery stalks and remove the strings. chop that and add it. Ratios of potato, celery, onion, pickle eggs and egg yolks are up to you. I like a bit of each in nearly every mouthful and I like the chunks to be large enough to taste each chunk.. My aunto use to like to make hers using vinegar which a lot of people prefer but not me. I think my recipe is more Southern.
I can't stand rosemary in any form. I once had some excessive rosemary in Shepard's pie and nearly through up.
I use it exceedingly sparingly like not at all. Tastes like that all purpose cleanser they use to put out called Pine Sol smells.
Thank you! I love all the ingredients! I've never mixed the yolk with the mayo (ALWAYS Best Foods!), so that will be interesting to try! I'll let ya know, Sir!
That's the mayonnaise we use. I'd really love to make my own mayonnaise but I can't stand for more than a few seconds and my wife is overburdened with caring for me so she just doesn't have the energy to do it herself even with my directions. I eat my potato salad well chilled. That's important to me. Edit: Although I've never tried it I think adding some black pepper might be good. I think I'll try that today.
I loathe mayonnaise with an absolute passion. There are things I am not crazy about but can eat to be polite, I would have to be literally facing death by starvation to eat mayonnaise. I make European style potato salad with vinaigrette. I make tuna salad with olive oil or with yogurt. Tonight I am grilling a chicken for Lucia and me and an artichoke for just me, don't accuse me of selfishness, cats don't like artichokes! Also have a brownie. Reading America's Test Kitchen How to Cocktail so I can add cocktails to my repertoire (maybe have a party some day?) and will make a Michala, cold beer with lime, hot sauce, worcestershire, and Sriracha rim salt. Should go well with spice rubbed chicken.
A little late for the MD weekend, but.... Creamy Jalapeño Dip Ingredients 2 fresh jalapeños 1/3 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves 1/2 cup good-quality mayonnaise 1/2 cup sour cream 1/2 cup buttermilk 1/3 cup tomatillo salsa 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon onion powder 1/4 teaspoon salt plus more to taste Freshly ground black pepper to taste Instructions In a blender or food processor, pulse the jalapeños until finely minced. Add the cilantro and pulse until chopped. Add the remainder of the ingredients and blend/process until mixture is smooth and completely puréed. Adjust seasonings to taste, adding more salt and pepper if necessary. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably longer. Serve with tortilla chips or vegetable dippers. Individual jalapeños can vary in their heat levels. That being said, as a general rule: For a mild dip, scrape out and discard the seeds & membranes from your jalapeños. For a medium dip, leave the seeds & membranes intact in one jalapeño and scrape them out/discard from the second jalapeño. For a spicy dip, leave all of the seeds & membranes intact. Or you can even add an additional jalapeño for extra heat, if that's your preference. This dip will slightly thicken after chilling in the fridge for several hours. However, it is not intended to be (and will never turn into) an overly thick dip.
Don't be impolite. You should at least offer some artichoke to your cat and then give it the power to decline the offer. That would be the totally polite way to go.
My buddy SWEARS by baking powder on wings, and he does make damn good wings. You’re the only other person I’ve heard mention it.
