Yum! Having company here at the lake this weekend and you just gave me my menu.....Low Country Boil ! I'll also add some mussels to it as well. Taste great but is also a ton of fun and perfect "cottage" fare.!
Not really like rootbeer. It has a strong herbally smell with a perfectly balanced bitter/sweet flavor. It's the only pop I still like--everything else tastes too sweet. Maybe it's an acquired taste. I've been drinking it since I was a kid during our frequent visits to Maine. Good luck to your daughter finding it unless she's in Maine or maybe NH..
Fresh new peas! My great aunt used to go into the garden and bring back her apron full. We'd shuck them and she would cook them up, then add a splash of cream and a big dollop of butter. For years and years, it was the only way I'd eat them.
Yeah, we have those places nearby, tried them both. My husband ordered some sandwiches from them years ago, neither of us liked Jersey Mikes, Blimpies was okay.
I love beet greens when they thin the rows, steamed whole with the itty bitty knob of beet at the end. A little dash of apple cider vinegar and they are heaven. I also get a kick out of peeling and chopping fresh beets because they are so pretty--and turn the whole counter purple, but hey, it's worth it. Boiled or even better, roasted...now you've got me wishing they were ready here! Canned and pickled beets just aren't the same.
I’ve eaten a lot of subs from a lot of different places in my time but I always find Jersey Mikes to be the best for cold subs. For hot Italian subs I’ll get them at a good pizzeria or restaurant.
Beets have always been a favorite of mine. My other guilty pleasure is chicken gizzards.
Me, too.
Got any leftovers? Sounds delicious!
What is sumac like? Do they use the leaves or berries or what?
