What are you eating?

Fascist.

Well, you obviously were not born in Texas.

Pecans are God’s way of saying he loves us…

My Harvest lunches show this to be a lie.

I thought that was beer.

We were in a Honolulu hotel, and the hotel breakfast was prepared and served in the bar by the barmaid. I had lox and bagels, and instead of raw red onion she put pickled red onions on it–she was Hungarian and she said she did all the pickling for the bar herself. She gave us her recipe for pickled red onions, which was wine vinegar, salt, sugar, and clawves. What? Clawves. What? Cloves the guy sitting next to us translated. I made them once since we got home, and I like them in salad. Kris doesn’t.

I’ve been making simple pickled red onions for the last year or so, and they’re SO easy but they’re also delicious on just about anything.

My favorite variant so far involves a few diced habaneros along with the usual suspects so they get a little bit of bite on top of the pickledness.

Man on the street interview about his onions: they are good!

People in Florida are nuts for pecans too. I’ve never liked them.

Everything that follows the fifth word is entirely superfluous.

Nice, I’ll give that a try. I usually put a halved serrano in there.

I usually put one diced whatever pepper I’m using in. With habanero, maybe a half is enough. They don’t get crazy hot, but it definitely stays with you for a minute.

I’ve made a few variations on sichuan cucumber salad recently. So good and so easy to make. Every recipe you find is a little different—I haven’t been following one exactly, but here’s one as an example:

This went really well. Queso la Parilla is for me maximum Tex mex comfort food (if that isn’t a redundancy). Lay down some Muenster slices in the bottom of a glass pan, layer sliced red and green bell peppers, mushroom and pickled jalapeños, more Muenster, bake until it’s fondy and bubbly, serve in warm flour tortillas. Mwah! The addition of the carnitas just made it ludicrous.

That sounds extremely tasty.

If you haven’t tried peanut sauce as the dressing on your salads then you’re really missing out. I recommend this one…

Better tasting and considerably less sodium than the other peanut sauces I’ve tried.

I’d link a video as to why you should always wash strawberries, but that video lives is in a specialized area of Pornhub.

Strawberries are out of season anyway.

It’s still strawberry season, and the Plant City Strawberry Festival just ended yesterday.

That must be what Limey’s video is about, a lecture at the strawberry festival about why you should always wash strawberries.
