JOAN'S PIMIENTO CHEESEpairs4life wrote:justjoan wrote:wouldn't life be grand if every month there was some kind of great music/food/friends event to look forward to like elaine and frank's mardi gras party?? thanks for being such lovely hosts; i had a great time as always.
Are you sharing the pimento cheese sandwich recipe?
Delicious!
1/2 lb. extra sharp cheddar (i like tillamook extra sharp, or cabot extra sharp)
4 oz. roasted red bell pepper(1 large, or 2 smaller ones; weigh after removing skin/seeds) unless you can find fresh pimiento peppers. i won't the jarred ones or jarred bell peppers, they taste different(bad)
1/4 c. mayo (.14#)
a splash worcestershire
a shake or 2 (or 3) of cayenne pepper (do NOT use red pepper flakes)
a little chopped onion (1/4 of a med.size)
to get the texture i like: use small holes on a box grater to grate the cheese. then put everything but cheese in a food processor and puree till smooth. then add the cheese and process just to mix.
traditionally served at every southern cocktail party as a white bread sandwich. i use pepperidge farm thin sliced sandwich bread. 1 batch pimiento cheese will make 10 sandwiches = 1 loaf. if you want to serve it with crackers, make sure they are salt free or it will not taste good. baguette slices are also a good option. enjoy! and feel free to share the recipe.

justjoan, I'm pretty sure she means her BiL is Nolan Ryan. Or Christopher Nolan. That's the only reasonable interpretation, I think."Don't you ever underestimate the power of a female." Bootsy Collins

Post #96 - February 27th, 2017, 6:54 pmI'm so happy that I finally made it to this event. Big thanks to the hosts! I really think that having your food friends, music friends and friends over all at once is a brilliant idea.
Loved the food, loved the music, loved the company.
I don't know why we don't eat Louisiana food all the time . . . . it's certainly one of the happier cuisines!

Post #98 - February 27th, 2017, 9:56 pmHa ha ha. I meant NOLAn, as in, he's from New Orleans. What do they call themselves, anyway? Nawlinians?"Your swimming suit matches your eyes, you hold your nose before diving, loving you has made me bananas!"

But it tastes awesome!
Recipe please.
