I love shrimp and 99% of the shrimp recipes you’ve seen on FoodMayhem have been made with frozen shrimp (defrosted). I use individually quick frozen, RAW shrimp. I prefer shell-on but when the store runs out, I’ll use peeled. Here’s 5 reasons why you should buy frozen shrimp.

Falafel Fries
Wednesday, August 26, 2009
Street carts ahoy.
Only some carts will have french fries, that’s what you need. Slice open a pita and fill it with falafel and french fries. Layer in plenty of tahini and hot sauce. If they’ve got lettuce put some in as well. Eat piping hot.
Vegetarian Fish

I hope you made the Cold Noodles with Peanut Sauce yesterday and have left-over sauce, because that wonderful peanut sauce is also used for this dish, Vegetarian Fish. It’s another perfect summer time food because it is served cold or at room temperature. The mung bean sprouts are crunchy and refreshing, held together by the […]

They all have chicken rolls, but tell them you need to kick it up a notch. Ask them to slice open a chicken roll (the way you’d open a french bread). Sprinkle, quite liberally red chili (pimiento) flakes in there, top with a bit more tomato sauce , […]

Cold Noodles with Peanut Sauce
Monday, August 24, 2009
Cold Noodles in Peanut Sauce is an extended family favorite.

My mom has been making it for every barbecue as far back […]

The sushiest of sushi places.
Put in an order for three pieces hamachi (yellowtail) sashimi, two pieces kurodai (black snapper) sashimi, two pieces saba (mackerel) sashimi. Accompany this with one roll filled with salmon skill, scallion, and spicy mayo. If you’re really hungry add in an order of pork gyoza.
Brunch at Gottino

Thanks for meeting me at
Gottino 52 Greenwich Avenue, New York, NY 10011. Sit down and have a cup of coffee ($3) with me. The coffee here is great by the way. Would you like a pastry? Do you have time for a meal? Really? OK! There’s so much I want you […]
Inclement Chili
Sunday, August 23, 2009
Soup place.
Tell ’em you need a bowl of chili. Top it with sliced green onions (or scallions), shredded cheddar, bacon bits, and hot sauce. If they don’t have sliced scallions or shredded cheddar, then you show them what bad weather looks like!
