    Hard Boiled Eggs.
    A staple 'round here.

    So many variations on cooking.
    How do you do 'em?

    Start with eggs that have been sitting a while.
    I put a dozen eggs in a pot.
    Cover with hot water. 
    Bring to a good boil. 
    Remove from heat & cover.
    Let sit for 9 minutes.
    Put in ice bath for 1 minute.
    Put in plastic bag, in fridge.  (I dont like it when everything in my fridge smells like egg)

    Enjoy with some red salt.  Eat a few every day as 'snacks' w/a handful of almonds.
    the fuck is red salt?

    Finishing salts.
    Sea salts of all types.  They taste very different from one another in many cases and it is fun to play around and see what goes well with what.
    Have a bunch of types...here is a pic of some that I googled

    Go nuts with those fucking salts when you get those Jersey tomatoes going in the summer. 
    Slice the tomato into 4 and use a little sprinkle of different salt on each one?
    Drink vodka.


    (Ok the vodka is a throw in that has nothing to do with anything)

    You have a vodka thread.  Keep that nonsense out of here.

    We talk about roasting whole hogs in here.  Only brown liquor goes with that.

    That's the wrong alcohol to be talking about with salt.

    This is the correct way to talk about salt and alcohol.

    As much as I hate to agree with a shithead Yankee fan, this is one of those times when we must take a stand together and squash this vodka nonsense.

    Hahahaha.  Sorry, it was an add on.  I will refrain from using here unless it actually goes with the food.
    (Like, for instance, pickles)

    Pre concert food.
    Raw diver scallops
    Langostine dumplings in black truffle sauce
    Short ribs 
    Splitting with bride, with many drinks on the horizon

    She just looked and picked the sake she wanted
      $92
    Yeah, she's looking for another option, lol

    I love raw scallops.  The Food Thread needs more raw fish fans.

    Serpico is my favorite restaurant in the city. Comfortable saying that.

    Those raw diver scallops with the chive(?) sauce are one of my favorite things ever

    The dips were subpar.  The food in general was all very disappointing.
    The fall festival we were going to today was way too crowded so we went to a good Mexican joint and feasted well and now we are eating raisins and pretzels out on the boat for the last time this year.

    The three year old snagged the raisins from the cabinet earlier this week and.by the time I discovered it he had eaten half of them.  
    He would love the pretzels as well.

    gambo, no more raisins and pretzels for the rest of the year?!
    ;)

    I love raisins.  My mom used to pack those little boxes of Sunmaid in my lunchbox.

    As for pretzels, few things beat a big warm salted one with mustard.  Mmmm!
