This or that?

I love Chinese bbq, 'charsiu.'

home cooked (it's one of my specialties)


sticky rice balls or steamed sponge cake?

Have you ever eaten mochi?

c.i.

this is the this or that word game thread

Sorry. I'm always posting in the wrong threes.

No worries, I get confused in the alphabetical game threads. Lustig and Dutchy used to correct me.

What is steamed sponge cake? Sticky rice balls by default.

Lobster roll or two fresh sushi rolls?

I'm allergic to crustaceans so it will have to be a sushi roll


twill or corduroy?

That's Chinese food! We go to a local Chinese restaurant on some weekends to have dim sum. We go around 10:30am, and the place gets packed before we finish eating. It's a good thing we have Chinese in our family, because it helps with communicating with the staff.

Corduroy

Have a domesticated fox or wolf for a pet?

fox


leather gloves or wool mittens?

Leather gloves, mittens make my hands feel sweaty, and I don't like the way they smell

Italian cuisine or Northern Italian cuisine

Italian cuisine or Northern Italian cuisine

I have visited both north and south Italy. Loved the Isle of Capri. What I remember most were the muscles cooked in garlic. They were tender and melted in your mouth.

Southern please. Sicilian, to be specific.

flip flops or thongs?

Excuse me, are we talking about footwear or lingerie?

Flip flops are shoddy footwear.

that's up to you, isn't it?

OK, flip flops are a terrible idea for feet and thongs strike me as potentially unhygienic so I will have to pick Electric Fans

German Potato Salad or Old Bay Potato Salad

What is Old Bay potato salad? German potato salad by default.

Which is worse a food fad: fried butter at a county fair or waiting 2 hours in a long line for a rainbow bagel (a plain bagel with food coloring)?

Food color bagels, thats just stupid


Old bay potato salad

4 boiled medium potatoes
4 Hard boiled eggs
Half of a Vidalia onion chopped
Enough mayo seasoned with Old Bay to mix the potato mixture

I boil the potatoes (cut into small chunks) and boil the eggs
I usually mix Old Bay into the mayo first so the floors bloom (how much old bay is up to you, I have a heavy hand with old bay.......some people like it milder)
Drain the potatoes and add to large bowl
Add the chopped onion
I use a grater and grate the hot eggs into the bowl
Then I add the Old Bay mayo and mix until all ingredients are covered

I serve it warm, people seem to love it, and my family asks for it often
I think it's good cold as well, my husband prefers it warm

Now if I could only reconstruct my Grandmothers Hot German Potato salad I'd be in heaven......it was perfect
