Guess I'm known for a couple of salads I've picked up along life's journey ---

One I picked up working as an au pair boy in France.... roughly equal parts diced endive (called "Belgian endive" in the States), Gruyère cheese and Golden Delicious apple, optional slivered almonds, with a light vinaigrette...

The other is Balela, a great summer chickpea/bean salad .... coming up to the season for it soon:

  • I can black beans
  • 1 can chick peas (garbanzos)
  • 2 tomatoes, diced (~ ¾ cup)
  • 1 chopped white onion
  • 1 clove garlic (actually several)
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ cup vinegar
  • 1 lemon, squeezed
  • ½ cup chopped Italian parsley (<< the lead singer)
  • chopped hot peppers and/or hot sauce to taste
  • Dash of cumin
  • Optional: mint, capers, julienned carrot (for texture), celery top leaves (< good for managing hot weather)

Marinate ~ 1 hour in fridge. Exquisite.
 
I cant give a "best", but my best method is grilling. My ribs and steaks are amazing! Drunk chicken is up there, too.
its simple, but my chicken salad is fucking amazing if you have the taste for it. I don't use mayo.. I use fat free yogurt and a blend of reg mustard and Dijon. Usually put a nut in it and some fruit. Apples, grapes cranberries etc

That's just sad

Knowing how to cook just one or two good meals is guaranteed to get you laid

Salt & pepper chuck roast liberally and let stand for about 20 minutes then brown the roast on both sides.

Anything with risotto is good

I haven't made it enough to call it a signature dish but last time I did I called it paella risotto a cross between my 2 favorite rice dishes
