Whipping? Someone flayin' flesh? "We're going to a whipping, we're going
to..."
So sorry. Dunno what came over me.
Ahem...the ole chef is going outta town this weekend (well, okay, so he's
younger than me...that's life) and while I plan on running some nice
specials that the majority of the club members would enjoy (except for the
ones that cannot be pleased...and to them, I give not a fig [which is a
polite way to say I fart in their general direction]), I am thinking of
running a "chilehead" special. Am going to do a very simple barbecue
shrimp dish (a'la Paul Prudhomme with a Raelian twistorama...and may add
some scallops so I can charge 'em a nice round 20 bucks...) complete with
some dirty rice and some sorta foo-foo garnishment (barf...minimalist chef
that I be...). Anywho, question be: any of you wunnerful chileheads got an
idea for a nice upbeat, "highclass" chilehead dish that you would just find
groovy as can be if you walked into a ritzy country club and found it to be
a special for the eve? Have basically all the meats/cuts you can imagine,
possibly some buffalo tenderloin coming in. Chef ain't gonna order much
fishy for me to play with other than salmon (fillets, once I cut them
monsters) and prob. some tuna; maybe some mahi-mahi.
(Uh, realize that above, the "barf" was a sound/exclaimation. I do not do
that to food. The color is all wrong for a garnish anyhow.)
Could just make a nice pineapple salsa (dare I whoop out the dried
savinas?...whip?..."we're going to.."..STOP WITH THE SING-SONG...lost, I am
lost..) and serve it with some nice pan-seared tuna. Probably go well with
the mahi, or any other fishy. Pork? I'm ramblin'...
Anywho, *my* specials will be running Fri/Sat night so gimme a hollar if
anyone thinks he/she has a groovy chilehead dish-ola that I can steal.
Okay, so in actuality, I'm just too lazy to look through my
cookbooks/files. Jeez... :)
Peace, Hendrix, and Whip Me Chile-momma!.......
