How is it being prepared? BBQ sounds real good about now.

Hmm - never had wild boar sausages - how are they made? By that, I mean are they seasoned similar to Northern European sausages, or more like Mediterranean sausages?

It's an intestine casing, like a small haggis, with wild boar bits & sundries, red wine, garlic, barley, pepper, and sea salt. Then hung and cured.



I like them pan-fried and served with thick chips and Polish kraut. Oh, and Lowensenf Hot Brown mustard, on the side. Oh my... :cool:

White or Red? I prefer New England (white) - and I want it so thick that the spoon will almost stand up by itself. Served with a good piece of sourdough bread - my favorite soup!!

Clams are a magical food. Linguini with clam sauce, fried clams, heck, even clam sushi - the fresher the better.

 
I like both, but I prefer white. The one potential downside of either is if there's too much residual shell. Real New Englanders or Bostoners apparently say "suck it up!" to that complaint, but I can't get past it if it's noticeably gritty.
 
I've never had clam sushi, though not because I'm put off by the idea. I can't recall ever seeing it offered anywhere I've had sushi. I would have had to have tried it if it were.

I'm missing home right about now. I want a giant plate of Kelly's fried clams. and oysters. It's funny that a place called Kelly's Roast Beef, sells awesome seafood.

 
It happens that way sometimes. A place called Bad Brad's BBQ about fifteen minutes from my house has the absolute best fish and chips I've ever had. I don't even care for the BBQ very much. There's a very strong hint of what I think is cumin in their spice blend, which is used for everything they make, that puts me off pretty much everything that comes out of the pit. Supposedly, if I remember correctly, the place was started by an ex-chef who wanted a less stuffy and snooty existence, which would explain the level of competency regarding the fish.

  The earpods are NOT made for my ears. They keep falling out, and they hurt me if I push them in hard enough. I once started bleeding when I had decided that they had to fit me. I couple of stiches, a concussion and a few painkillers later I came to the conclusion that they simply would not.

 
I think that if you are not being sarcastic, you ought to get some sort of Head Fi trophy or something.
 
  OSTRY KC06 quick impressions: somewhere in between a more analytical GR07 and a less damped / more dynamic RE0.

 
They look oddly like something out of an anime with that cloud icon...

AIEEE
 
I wish there were more restaurants around me named after the proprietors. There's always something good and wholesome to me about that idea.

Best piece of satire ever.

More on soups and sausages...




When I was a kid, my mom would make huge pots of a traditional Portuguese soup. It contained 4 or 5 different kinds of beans - including white beans and (of course) fava beans, one or more types of macaroni (elbow, tubes, etc), a zillion different types of other vegetables (potatoes, carrots, kale, peas, green beans, etc) and, of course, big slices of linguica sausage.
