Feb. 2013 - DISH or INGREDIENT of the Month

[DiningDiva]

The January Dish of the Month seemed to work reasonably well...or at least better than I had anticipated :-D

So let's try for round 2, February

Same as last month...to nominate either a DISH or an INGREDIENT for everyone to try around town during the month of February, all you simply have to do is reply to this e-mail with your nominations in CAPITAL LETTERS.

Thanks, and let's see what you all think we should explore for February

[Rodzilla]

PATE

CHILE RELLENOS STUFFED WITH DARK CHOCOLATE!!!

[ipsedixit]

Might have an easier time finding a veggie pattymelt ....

[master815k]

I love the CHOCOLATE idea!

[karaethon]

Since Feb has V-day, I'll go ahead and nominate CHOCOLATE - hopefully we can see some nice mole's too

[sdnosh]

That's a great idea! I hereby rescind my scallops and shrimp and second CHOCOLATE - both sweet and savory!

[INDIANRIVERFL]

STONE CRAB

[DiningDiva]

Nominations will be open through this Friday the 25th. On Saturday I'll post the voting tread with the 2 items most frequently nominated. Definitely some interesting suggetions so far.

[sdnosh]

I second SCALLOPS and add SHRIMP.

[cstr]

Pattymelt.

[Dagney]

Oooo...patty melt, that's a good one. That's all I need. To start running around town eating patty melts.

[ipsedixit]

Well, if you are actually *running* then it shouldn't be a problem, right?

[Dagney]

ha! true. a few Brazilian Jiu Jitsu classes will take care of the issue. I do love a good patty melt, but I am sticking with my vote for Chile Relleno.

[ipsedixit]

Royce Gracie was a big fan of pattymelts from what I understand ...

[Beach Chick]

Lol..veggie burger Patty melt.

CHILE RELLENOS

[littlestevie]

I've been on a chile relleno kick lately. I know it's americanized and I will get blasted but I really like Garcia's rellenos. Where are your favs? And please no relleno burrito, I really can't figure out the appeal of them.

[DiningDiva]

Come with me to Veracruz and I'll buy you a chile relleno taco. Weird looking thing, but totally delicious

[Beach Chick]

Fidels in Solana Beach does one of the best Chile rellenos..they use egg whites to fluff up and I get a scoop of sour cream.
With a side of beans or rice is dinner for me.

[foodiechick]

Egg whites is the way to go, that is the method Rick Bayless uses. Thanks for the info BC.

[foodiechick]

So, I am being flakey and nominating two: CARNE ASADA BURRITO and CHILE RELLENOS.

[TeeBeeinSD]

CHEESE CURDS.

[notjustastomach]

jalapeño / chipotle

[honkman]

PORK BELLY

[Fake Name]

CARNE ASADA BURRITO

[foodiechick]

Maybe you could be more specific...SUPER SERGIO'S CARNE ASADA BURRITO.

[Fake Name]

Not at all, I'd enjoy hearing about different CARNE ASADA BURRITOS
