What's on the menu this Sunday?

[kamakazi]

Bun bun is required... Dry. Use brown rice

Allyuh aint cook today or wah?

Pelau today
nothing to really take pics of - it gonna taste better tomorrow anyway.
Leftover pelau always tastes better, plus the zaboca should be ripe by tomorrow

However seeing a raging debate going on - which way you prefer your pelau?
Sappy, medium or dry?

I like kfc cole slaw a lot
its not dripping wet, and just right amount of sweet and acidity to balance out the starch from the rice

too many make cole slaw into a sappy mayo mess

This

[nemisis]

Looking for some scallions south any ideas?

[maj. tom]

what we call "chive, sive" here in Trinidad is really green onions.
Green onions are also the same thing as scallions. You can either pick them young like our "chive" or more mature with a bulb (spring onion).

Chive is a different herb (but similar onion family) with pink/purple flowers. Much milder flavours and what you see in French cuisine a lot.


p.s. when yuh family buy chive in the market to grind up and carry back up NY or Montreal, dey dotish because green onions are found everywhere fresh in the world. The "bandanya" and "pimento peppers" i understand, but not the green onion.
