Andy, and all...
Emeril uses his essence as the "bam" ingredient shot-putted into every sauce,
etc.
My variation is more of an instant cure for blandness in almost any recipe
from soups, chowders, and cioppinos to chili, broiled vegetables, Portuguese
Chourico Corn Chowder, fried green tomatoes (no more for me), or any pasta
sauce.
It can be "bammed" onto foccacia, added to bread dough or pizza dough,
sprinkled over salad, added to meatball or golumpki (sp?) mixture, added to
rice while cooking, added to turkey stuffing, rubbed on poultry, etc., etc.
The point of it is that it's handy, flavorful, and adds a distinctive touch
to any dish.
After you alter it to suit yourself, as I promise you will surely do, and
once they get used to it in your food - friends and family will complain
whenever you leave it out. "Something's missing..."
Have fun with it and keep the $20 BJ's wants for Emeril's version. And, when
you're really pleased with your own concoction, tell us so we can try it.
