      The first time I was aware of having rosemary was in Italy, dining with friends on porchetta (whole roast pork), seasoned with rosemary, finger food served on brown paper and consumed with wine and bread. I highly recommend it! Now, 50 years later, I particularly like to use fresh rosemary with fresh thyme when I sauté baguette croutons in olive oil. The toasted rosemary adds its own crunch to the croutons. I salt to taste when the cooking is done.

    I'm an American who has lived in Sri Lanka for 18 years, mostly in a remote town on the east coast of the island, Batticaloa. In Sri Lanka, avocado is known as "waterfruit" in English, and is usually used to make avocado juice, which is delicious, as well as several other sweet deserts. As a half-Latino from Los Angeles, I really miss Mexican food. Fortunately for me, all the typical ingredients for Guacamole are readily found here; cilantro, lime juice, green chilies etc. So I started making Guac and serving it to my friends, especially when we had - ahem - drinking parties. While tortilla chips are unheard of here (as are tortillas generally, alas) there are lots of other things one can use to dip. My friends were amazed to taste a savory, and spicy, avocado dish.
    In what can only be described as successful culinary imperialism, I can triumphantly say that I now have several friends in Batticaloa who now regularly make Guacamole whenever they find ripe avocados, for their family's consumption. Slowly, slowly, Mexican cuisine is taking over the world. Someday... haahaahaahaa!

    Hello Beryl, The dish Avacado Choka from Guyana reminds me of the Chokha dish eaten in northern part of India especially in UP and Bihar region. Chokha is a recipe where you roast one type of vegetable ( potatoes, brinjal , tomato ) on fire until it get soft to mash it and gives smoky flavour as well, then you mix it with chopped onion, coriander and some spices. Aaloo Chokha ( made of potatoes) and Baigan Chokha (made of brinjal) are quite famous in India. During British Raj in India, many Indians from UP and Bihar region were taken to Guyana as laborers and servants . Later, they got settled in Guyana and Indo-Guyanese cuisine was born. Avacado Choka is a nice dish where we can see the Indian influence of Chokha recipe.

    A couple of decades ago, we used to call it a bagel injury. It was back when bagels were just beginning to become widely popular in places other than New York and Montreal. Thousands of people suddenly began arriving in ERs around the world with virtually identical wounds to their hands. There were even regular PSA style segments on national news programs, showing people how to safely cut a bagel in half. Many of them strongly recommended a little plastic device designed to help us slice a bagel safely.

      I am German and bread rolls are a staple food here. Yet I have never heart of anyone cutting a bread roll in half and injuring their hand 😅 But when I think of it, we use either a bread knife or a butter knife for cutting and they are not as sharp 🤔

    • @mustwereallydothis
      @mustwereallydothis 8 місяців тому

      @sphhyn maybe you haven't experienced an authentic, New York or Montreal bagel. They are very firm and dense. People often hold them in one hand, cut part way through, rotate them to the uncut half, and start sawing through the other side. It works great until they unexpectedly reach the previously cut section while still slicing. That's when the knife hits their palm full force with a sawing motion. I have a scar from that sort of injury, though I did it while trying to cut a large, raw beet.

    • @mustwereallydothis

    Avocado juice tip - yeah, you can add some water to help with the blending (just make sure that it isn't too much water, we want a thicker consistency here). For this matter, slightly overripe avocados are preferable, and IMO you could add another half of avocado in your juice 😺, using 1,5 avocados in total for one serving. And one more thing - if you don't have chocolate flavored condensed milk, the original one is okay, but chocolate is *key* - it complements the avocado flavor nicely (and since you are in the US I think you'd do real well with chocolate syrup 😺). The woodiness of the avocado mingles beautifully with the bittersweet chocolate flavor 🥰.
    You can usually get avocado juice at bakso (meatball) places 😺, that and a bowl of bakso is such a winning combo 😂✨

    Beryl, I honestly don't know if you can find it in the US but in Brazil and in East Asian countries there's a species of avocado that is a lot bigger and which tastes really sweet, very different from Mexican avocado. That's usually the one at least we in Brazil use to make sweets, so maybe that's why your avocado juice didn't taste all that sweet.

    My favorite unexpected thing to do with avocado is the few ways it stands up to being cooked--Thai green curry with avocado is a staple on local (Seattle, WA, US) restaurant menus, and it's a case of making the way avocado tastes cooked actually work.
    My other favorite unexpected way to eat avocados is to take a half a very chilled avocado and pour a bit of ponzu, tamari, or soy sauce into the seed depression, and just grab a spoon and eat the avocado with whatever amount of the sauce that sticks to the spoonful. Saw this in a Japanese movie, I think 'The Funeral', ages ago, and my household adopted it with delight.

      Avocado smoothies are delicious, easy to make, and quite versatile. You can mix them up to personal preference. Boba tea places in the US frequently make various recipes, but you need to watch out that you find ones that use actual avocado. Some of the shops have started substituting instant avocado powder. Ouch.
      At home, my family usually makes avocado smoothies with 1) avocado, 2) sugar, 3) Greek yogurt, 4) ice cubes, 5) sugar, 6) milk to adjust thickness, and 7) the secret ingredient: one kumquat. It's more decadent than what you get in boba tea places, but still takes almost no effort to make.

      I don't think American farmer's cheese is quite the same think as quark. So, not surprised if Beryl's recipe turned out to be a little more cheese-like. Not that that's necessarily a problem; sounded like a great recipe in it's own way. You can buy quark in high-end grocery stores in the US, but whereas in Germany a pack of quark can cost less than €1, American prices can exceed $10.
      So, it makes sense to substitute. I find that Greek yogurt comes closer than farmer's cheese, but you need to blend it with some other dairy product(s) to get an even better match. Some heavy cream and some cream cheese will get you there. I'd try 50% Greek yogurt (e.g. Fage), 25% cream cheese, and 25% heavy cream as a base recipe and then make adjustments according to personal preference.
      I am a little puzzled by Beryl's comment that she couldn't taste the avocado in this dish and it only contributed to texture. I am familiar with a similar dessert, and it absolutely relies on avocado for it's wonderful flavor. The version that I learned about in the late 1980s in Germany uses avocados mashed with lemon juice and sugar, then fold in freshly whipped cream. Serve with lingonberry preserves (or cranberry jam, if you don't have lingonberries). Easy and fast to make, delicious, and yes, very avocado forward.
