Ever since I contacted u and begged, whined, grovelled for a sample of the
much-raved-at powder, I haved looked for thye postal-person<g> to bring a
sinister brown pkg. It came Sat( 02/21/98).
I was busy doing the S>S>S before going to work, but asked the SO to open
it.. Inside was this plastic baggie( Drum-roll,please! ).
Immed. I did the "finger-test".
Now, not being a dyed-in_the_wool cast-iron stomach types as are many on the
digest, I was apprehensive. [ voice lowers drastically 2 octaves!!!]
Y-E-E-E-S!!!!!
Color: Yellowish-orange. Suggestive of Tumeric. So What!
Taste: Suits me to a T. Not over-powering, but quite good. Sort of a
Carribean flavor. ( habs, right?)
Texture: So far, I have not seen an excessive amount of caking, as was led
to believe would be the case. Think would prefer a tad coarser(-2SP??)
powder. That would allow it to leave the spoon easier.
Aroma: Like I said, I stopped everything when ur pkg arrived. I immediately
had to whiff it, THEN did tasting. I was careful (sorta,kinda ) not to stick
mu snoz too close to baggie, but got an [interesting] sniff of it. I really
liked the aroma!! Keep as is,please.
Heat: agin, as a middle-of-the-road CH, This is just about where I want it.
I can always add some more to bump up the heat, but since so many of my
friends are wary of my food, I have to be careful as to what & Where,eh?
Beside, my having a Hy.Hyrn. doesnt help.
As for $$$$<US> well, after seeing how much some companies charge for a
vinegary sorta hot sauce, dont sweatit.
Will tell about some cooking ,later.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU . Go for the Gold on this one, Calvin!
Florida ( G.T.B area at least!) awaits you.
