Only if you’ve done it right. Luckily, mixing All Spice Cafe’s Chipotle Garlic sauce with Karoun Kefir Cheese Labne worked extremely well. If it hadn’t, there’d be a new hole in my backyard. The sort of hole Joe Pesci bitched about having to dig in Casino, only without a snitch in it. The sauce packs a medium-sized heat and smoky flavor with garlic and tartness. Traditionally made by draining whey from slightly salted yogurt, Labne is a thick and creamy yogurt cheese that’s a healthier alternative to regular cream cheese. It’s also rich enough to be used as a substitute for sour cream.
Home-Cured Olives Revisited
You may remember the article we ran on Harald Zoschke’s home-cured olive how-to.
He’s been busy again.
Since early 2014, Harald and his wife Renate have lived in Northern Italy, at beautiful Garda Lake. This is the world’s northernmost region where olive trees grow (on a commercial scale). Here they have some nice olive trees in their yard, and in early November 2015 they had a wonderful harvest of 12 kg (about 26 lbs.) dark mature olives (cultivar Leccino).
Smoked Mexican Turkey with Orange Chile Oil Marinade
I have turkey on the brain right now so for the next three weeks, you’re going to see a post a week from me on the subject. If you’re really lucky, it may even induce a food coma.
Mesquite-Grilled Turkey Legs with Jalapeño-Cilantro Lime Basting Sauce
If your Thanksgiving get together is on the small side, you may not want an entire turkey. Even if you do plan on going whole bird, this is really tasty, spicy way to prep the legs. Henry the VIII would love it.
Turkey Ranch-Chipotle Panini
We originally ran this turkey panini recipe as part of a Thanksgiving leftovers piece but there’s no reason to wait until some poor turkey’s corpse is being picked over the day after the holiday to enjoy it.
Amberfyre Scary Bloody Mary Sauce: Review
Scary is a good descriptor for Amberyfre’s Scary Bloody Mary Sauce. Boldly flavored and seriously hot, this bottled lava is not for the faint hearted.
