Weird/Unusual but good food combinations.

Italian dressing on chicken or steak.

I've used Italian dressing as a marinade for both, as well.

Freshly podded raw peas and grated cheese - makes an incredible taste combination... oddly

I like to let it soak for a few days.

I really like chiavettas marinade. But it's a western ny only thing kinda like white hot dogs. I'm sure you can buy it online but man that stuff is so strong yet so good.

Parmesan cheese?
Plus 1 on the Chevattas.

That stuff is delicious.

I make macaroni with butter and when the macaroni is done I mix in canned peas and Parmesan cheese. So good.

Quite the brouhaha at the CNE (Canadian National Exhibition) after several people fell sick eating the bacon-maple jam cronut. The food source was closed, and then a few days later several other food outlets.

Definitely got to watch what you put into your mouth. Obviously when people want to make pigs of themselves the bacon comes out, but it doesn't seem to like the company of other foods. I'm not going to make my bacon party with much other that some eggs - or atop the odd cheese-burger,

Maple jam - get away! Stay on the donuts, not the cronuts!

It wasn't the combination of bacon, maple jam or cronut, but the fact the jam was contaminated with the Staphylococcus aureus toxin.

Oh dear lord. That is not good.

You're absolutely right (well, half right anyway): local news reports say it was either the jam (or buns (same source)) that was contaminated - resulting in the other outlets that had nothing to do with the cronuts also being shut down. Someone was either sticking their fingers in the jam or playing with the buns.

I was merely funning about the combination; quite often we would have bacon and scrambled egg with our pancakes which would be drowned in maple syrup, and maybe even strawberries on the side. In fact one of my favourite spreads would be marmalade when I have my bacon and eggs.

On the same topic, though, bacon seems to creep into any food combo that gets tagged unusual. And garlic.

Like garlic-flavoured gum, or bacon ice-cream. No accounting for taste.

Sirarcha and Sushi?

 

[Slash]

I am liking the sound of garlic flavored gum.

 

[GTMail]

Sirarcha and Sushi?

Not that uncommon at all. I personally prefer bacon and maple flavored doughnuts. Also any type of bread with honey mustard.

 

[Grayfox]

Wedges in a bread roll.

 

[turbolefty78]

Wedges in a bread roll.

Wedges? Of what may I ask?

 

[DG_Silva]

Potato wedges, I guess. Nowt more than a fancy chip butty...

I tried something a little strange last week. I was grilling a pork loin (whole) and was mixing up some stuff to inject it with before slow cooking it and had some "nutella" and mixed it with several other items (heated everything in a real small crock pot) before injecting it the only problem I ran into was when the sauce cooled in didn't like going through the needle as did some of the seeds from the Budweiser BBQ sauce had in it. All in all the pork tastes great.

Sirarcha and Sushi?

The spicy mayo/sauce that is put on most sushi is often made using Sriracha.

Posted this a long time ago in the 'regular' food thread - but I thought I'd bring it back here. This was a lamb chop with a garlic-chocolate sauce.




The sauce being prepared:

 

[Sage Ages]

fish and mustard.

 

[High-Test]

fish and mustard.

Herring and a good mustard are awesome together.

 

[DG_Silva]

fish and mustard.

I have a recipe by Reza Mahammad for a curry called fish in mustard gravy. It is really nice, and not as hot as you might think.

 

[Sage Ages]

Yoohoo and Orange juice.

My work is selling cotton candy grapes.

They taste just like cotton candy, and grapes, but they're just grapes.

I should put some in among the normal grapes at home so people get freaked out.

 

[phillgt2002]

Man, some of these things are giving me stomach turning chills.

Only odd or unusual food combination I have is ranch dressing with pizza every once and a while.. Other than that, I'm pretty sane with my combinations.

But that is unquestionable delicious.

 

[Slash]

If it counts as weird, I much prefer breaded chicken fingers with bleu cheese though I may have said that already. French fries work with either ranch or bleu cheese.

 

[kikie]

Slice of bread with turkey filet slice and some apple/pear syrup.

[Ridox2JZGTE]

Absolut Vodka Raspberry and Chocolate Fudge Ice Cream : Yummy !

 

[photonrider]

Nothing unusual happening here.

Moving along now to alternate sips of cold Carlsberg and warm green tea. The pizza crust dipped in vanilla yogurt tastes okay, too.

 

[Kitten]

Rice with Mayonnaise .
