Never had deep fried turkey. I bet it's great.
Better than advertised... Takes minutes to cook the bird.
Never had really authentic Wagyu beef, from Kobe.
They are both great. We have a steakhouse in Columbus that serves both Wagyu from Washington and from Kobe Japan. I would go with the stuff from Washington because it is cheaper, and there is no disernable difference between the two. Got to love... beer fed, massaged beef. I love cow.
I'd like to try fugu, although I might be too chicken. I'd feel really stupid if I left my wife a widow and my son fatherless because I had to try some exotic sushi.
I would love to try it. But like you I don't know if I am brave enough to eat it sometime.
You can make a decent version of limoncello by steeping lemon peels (2-3 large lemons) in grain alcohol for a couple of weeks. Then strain out the peels and (THIS PART IS IMPORTANT) dilute it with distilled water to about 50% strength before you drink it. Make sure you remove the white pith from the lemon peels.
Or just go to the liquor store. Whichever.
I have seen it using vodka... The store bought one comes from Italy and is maybe $20, with no real time investment to give it a try... call me lazy. Edited by JChristoff 2008-02-08 3:11 PM
