    I crush it with the side of the knife and then chop it up. I adore garlic and use lots of it.

     

    I find it interesting how garlic is used in nearly every ethnic cuisine I can think of, despite the separate evolutions and all.

     

     

    Hell yeah, its especially interesting how it gives different flavours and effects whether you are frying, roasting, littly cooking, or using it nearly raw, the vast different of the sweetness of roasted garlic, and the heat of raw garlic is amazing.

     

    For any garlic lover, I highly suggest Chicken and 40 cloves.

     

    Youtube Good eats bulb of the night for the recipe, its amazing.

    Really? I've always seasoned a steak pretty darn well on both sides with that seasoning up there and it's always come out great.. Haven't had steak de Burgo though, so you may have a point about the lack of flavor.

     

    I like to crush my garlic with the back of a knife, personally. I remember it was only about a year ago or so that I got pissed at how long it took me to peel fresh cloves of garlic, now I think I can probably get a whole bulb in under 10 minutes or so, maybe even half that.

     

    Slicing the cloves works really nice too, I've found. Dicing garlic is a pain if you like a lot of it.

     

    If you dont like mincing garlic, use the back of the knife method, but sprinkle a little salt on the clove, and then just keep pressing the clove with the back of the knife and then dragging the blade a bit.

     

    and if peeling garlic is a pain, and you need whole cloves, you can get little rubber tubes you put the garlic in and rol it around, or if you have a silicone jar opener (The flat square kind) just put it between that folded in half and rub and you get the same effect.

    For the guy who metioned making steak de burgo

     

    Garlic powder in any kind of pan sauce is a no no. Garlic Powder needs to to re-hydrate, so unless you plan on simmering that sauce for a while you are going to come up short on flavour.

     

    Pan sauces, I'd recommend fresh garlic (Jarred packed in oil in a pinch works) and remember the smaller you chop garlic the more intense the flavour will be.

    I don't know if this belongs here but did anyone hear the little Browns/Lebron Rumour?

    A pic of Lebron in a Browns Jersey? And a comment from that made a good point, how pissed off do you think nike is, that there is a big Reebok logo on that jersey.

     

     

    I mean he's gotta good build for a wide out, and he can jump like a prick but I don't know how well he'd do.

    I've added barbecue sauce to Manwich. I like that.

     

    A buddy of mine made some kind of mix of BBQ sauce, ketchup and Dr. Pepper.

     

    Surely you aren't talking about my coke/soy/ketchup BBQ sauce? Best rib sauce in the world.

     

    Also sir, in regards to you not being able to take ravioli as a serious food, remember that the stuffed dumpling (Ravioli, Perogi, Kreplach, manti, vareniki etc) is featured in almost every country's national cuisine.

     

    It's not the ravioli's fault that it was perverted by the mass produced food whore chef boyardee.

    I just wanted to point out how low class the leafs are.

     

    I mean sure they have no idea what direction they want to head in as a club, but goonery?

     

    The game last night showed the 2 very different directions these teams are headed.

    I too am expecting huge things from Kovalev.

     

    But I wanted mostly to say as a habs fan I am really impressed with the Kostitsyns thus far.

     

     

    And regarding the highstick, do they call it as when the stick makes contact with the puck, or when the puck leaves the stick.

     

     

    Because if his blade hit the cross bar and thats when the puck left the blade you cant call it a highstick because ultimately his blade would be even with the bar.
