* in case you saw the mispost, no it isnt pikachu vs oranges....

For natural flavour, orange.
If it were candy, I'd have went with the apple...especially green apple. Both quite respectable entries, but again for me it comes down to versatility, I have, and will always use oranges more.

I made chicken last night with garlic, red onion, red and green bell pepper, lime juice, pineapple rum and cherry 7-up. No kidding.

it wasnt as good as i had hoped. Guess what the weak link was?


Not the 7-up, the rum. weird...

You'd have been better off with a white wine for that, something light and crisp...I'm not good with the ol' wine terminology, but a chardonnay should work in the dish you've described, added towards the beggining primarily, and a SMALL fresh splash at the end.

Yeah. i was trying to be clever and it blew up in my face. on the other hand, bree asked for some of my pineaply bbq sauce, and was quite happy with the mix of flavors. So i was disappointed, but she liked it, so all wa sright in the world.

Hey man, you GOTTA encounter fuck-ups along the line...recognising when you've done something that just doesn't work is an honest and important factor. The more crazy ideas you try, the better odds are that you'll stumble over something great.
Literally more than half of my own recipes , including the ones you've seen have been through the same.

apples

Cool, more Cheeba, I mean, Phalanx recipes! I copy them when you post them, I hope you don't mind, cuz I guess I'd do it anyway. :D

That's fine.
Didn't say I was posting any more though.

OK, just PM them to me. :D J/K you don't have to. Just wanted you to know I always appreciated when you did post them.

BTW, do you watch Hell's Kitchen? Just curious.

I've seen it.
I don't really watch any of the better known cooking shows religously...I find they focuss more on the "being a chef" bit (which is actually misleading, most of those guys own restaurants in which they can do whatever the fuck they want), and less on the actual cooking. It might be interesting to watch a guy swear his head off, or to see "how it is" or...how it supposedly is...for a while, but to be honest it all gets a bit boring to me.
I prefer recipes, demonstration of varied local cuisines and history in cooking shows. Probably my favoutire int. chef would be Rick Stein, who has more shows than I can count yet shows more passion in the subject matter than I've EVER seen out of ANY of the rest, it's more like watching a documentary laden with easy to complex recipes.
My favourite local chefs...a tossup between a guy called Neil Perry, and a chick called Kylie Kwong...also with a few shows and books of their own, each has one of the leading restaurants in Sydney...probably the only chefs from 'round my way I'd consider worth checking out. Unless you count the posers on our "ready steady cook"...Don't get me wrong, there's a lot of great chefs here...our whole massively multicultural deal and availability of interesting produce makes for some wonderful food...I just think in general, the whole "fame" deal hasn't quite caught up here...or could be no-one gives a fuck.

Personally, I would never last on Hell's Kitchen. I'd have to slap the shit out of the chef. I'm not cut out for that type of atmosphere I guess.

Im getting pertty pretty nervous beeing alone in the dark out here.Am I the OnLY idiot here???














obviously

Yes, I'm afraid you are. j/k We're here, where are you?????

I believe that is the hind end of the Merrill Lynch bull statue in the financial district in New York City.
