    What drinks to real hot food?

    Margaritas and caipirinhas for Mexican and South American. Beer for Thai, Indian curry and barbecue. Wine for Italian. And martinis for spicy cocktail food. It all makes so much sense. What puts out the fire of a spicy chipotle sauce or a piquant ceviche better than a lime drink? Can...

    Food you keep going back to, because it's just what you need right now

    Escarole, cannellini beans, salt pork, garlic and rosemary. I never thought I'd crave vegetables like I do this.

    Of Sheep-Dip, Rot-Gut, and Furniture Polish. The worst of the worst.

    I still owe you Tim, for getting me hip to Nøgne Ø!:eusa_clap Very easy to find in NY. Mikkeller brews a few of their beers in Norway, and they're all worth a try. I went to my neighbor's daughter's graduation party where I had the choice of Coors lite, Bud lite, and Miller lite lime...

    Barbeque

    I'd have to agree with you Jim. I've found smoking after the oven also gives a superficial, sort of acrid flavor to the meat. Not awful, just not as nice as smoking first. Pyroxene, that shot of the brisket on the smoker looks aces!:)

    Gin vs Vodka (Martini)

    First the croutons: Cube last week's french bread or better- sourdough. Crush or finely mince one large clove of garlic into a pan with a tablespoon of butter and two tablespoons of olive oil, S&P. Heat till garlic sizzles and add all the bread cubes- toss around for a minute. Put the pan and...

    Chicken Salad

    Tim, I've done this for lobster salad and I can't see why it wouldn't work for chicken salad. Fair warning though, it will be a bit thin in the sauce, so I make the salad let sit, then serve on bread from a slotted spoon immediately before serving. Some heavy coconut milk (not sweetened), a...

    Gin vs Vodka (Martini)

    Nice, nice... A home-tossed (from scratch, not out of a bottle) caesar salad is great with a Martini- GIN Martini. I've never had a vodkatini, so I can't offer an opinion of it's pairing. stirred.;)

    Recreating the Casino Royale Vesper

    I like your ingenuity!:eusa_clap I think letting the tonic to evaporate would leave a whole lot of unwanted sugar. I've seen quinine extract or something similar sold somewhere, can't remember where though. Ebay maybe? Some premium tonics like Q or Fever Tree start out less sweet. Have you...

    Favorite Summer Drink

    That sounds like a good idea. I never cared for them much because most that I've had were way too sweet. I believe, like many bartender made margaritas, they suffered from being made with way too much sugar or from mixes, (and really, margaritas don't even need sugar). A little...

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Moretti or- Birra Moretti,,, blah. I wanted to like it too.:( I think Stella appeals to the folks who like to do better than Budweiser, but don't want to be hit over the head by taste. I love this exchange at a restaurant; "What beer do you have?" "Oh, the list is long. We have all...
