Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

Re: Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

I know that ketchup can be made from blueberries, which makes sense since they have a texture similar to tomatoes.
 
Re: Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

All condiment discussions can continue here.

Mustard - How awesome is it? Or would you rather breathe mustard gas than eat it again?

Mayo - Does it rock your world, or is its only purpose for pranking your college roommates? Perhaps you just think it's overrated/overused? Does it matter if it's one of the fancy Euro/Japanese mayos, or do they all taste like library paste to you?

Ketchup - Is it the "kiddie" condiment, useful only for making bland/soggy French fries edible? Or do you put it on everything like a godd@mned Canuck? Does it belong on a hot dog? (NOTE: Chicagoans, go take a chill pill and don't answer that last one)

Relish - Sweet or dill? Neither? Do people outside of Chiraq still even buy this sh*t?

Hot sauce - How awful is Tabasco? Why is Cholula so much better? Or perhaps you liked "Rooster Sauce" before it was cool, and want to brag about that.

Ranch dressing - Are you from the South? Feel feel to tell us why this is the 6th food group.

Other - Horseradish (prepared or the kind mixed with mayo for roast beef sandwiches)? Russian dressing or Thousand Island (why is relish the only difference between these two)? Something else I'm forgetting?

Slather away!
Mustard -- something I hated as a kid, but have come to appreciate as an adult. I like to use it to adhere dry rub to pork before tossing it in the smoker. I like a rough ground bourbon maple mustard for salmon.
Mayo - Hellmans only. I like homemade stuff, but don't always have the patience to make it. I put it on sandwiches and use it in egg salad. Otherwise, I could pass (though I like it on grilled cheese before grilling).
Ketchup - french fries and occasionally on a hotdog. I used to eat away more of it as a kid.
Relish - Not for me.
Hot sauce - I use Cholula to make buffalo chicken dip and otherwise don't ever use it.
Ranch - I make my own (mayo+ sour cream/greek yogurt + dill + parsley + hot sauce + garlic + salt + paprika + buttermilk) for salads occasionally.
Horseradish - I can eat straight out of the jar. I also occasionally like it mixed with a little sour cream to spread on proteins or on a sandwich
Vinegar on fries = YUM
Worcestershire sauce - I like it in things, but the days of putting it on steak are over since I know how to cook a steak now


Same with ribs (dry rub all the way overall). Any sauce should enhance the flavor, not take it over. Like adding salt to food, etc.
When we judge BBQ, we have to try the protein without sauce and then again with the sauce to judge exactly what you said. It's fascinating how a bad sauce can ruin a well done meat. If you include a sauce with your meat, then you're judged on both and you're not supposed to separate out the meat.

I should add, on the note of salt, unless it's corn on the cob or green beans, I don't put salt on anything.
Also -- *** with salt? It's a flavor enhancer!!

Family has history with high blood pressure, etc. I thought the same when I was younger, and learned...you know, not bad! I can dig this.

There is almost always sodium in hot sauces, you know... ;)

Almost forgot another one - I cannot go more than a few weeks without this stuff on pita bread, grilled chicken, or kebabs.

There is sodium in everything. My point is, why add more? ;) Some of the younger LTD Brewery employees were astounded at the amount of sodium in jerky/beef sticks, etc. A couple of them swore them off that day. :D
 
Re: Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

Salt is really only a problem if you are deemed "salt sensitive".

Of course there's a ****load of salt in jerky - it's the original meat preservative.

That's what the young'ns hadn't learned yet. The looks on their faces when they read the ingredients...I was laughing so hard.....:D
 
Re: Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

Speaking of all the condiments, Raising Cane's dipping sauce is amazing.

You better thank whatever god you worship you didn't put this on Gopher Puck Live. Wars would be had. ;)

Also, hops are a natural preservative, hence why IPAs are so hoppy - they needed to be preserved on the export journey from England to India.

Also why stouts can keep. They just balance it with malt.

Mustard: It's ok.
Mayo: Love it.
Ketchup: Used to love it as a kid...now can't stand it. Started hating it in high school.
Relish: Pass.
Hot Sauce: Hard no.
Ranch: Good stuff
BBQ Sauce Love it. Goes on almost anything. Dip fries in BBQ and/or Ranch.
Miracle Whip: I put this or mayo on almost any type of sandwich/burger.

A woman after my own heart. My late wife's mother(Polish btw)used to make her own. We she started grating that root and you were in the kitchen you'd leave with tears in your eyes.

When mookie was a youngster his polock grandma and pop would have him sit next to the grander and watch mookie cry as he cranked it :) :(
 
Re: Practice Safe Eating: Use a Condiment

Mookie just left five guys.

Cheeseburger with mayo, pickles, onions, mushrooms.
