Bonefish Grill Bang Bang Shrimp

Bonefish Grill Bang Bang Shrimp

Bonefish Grill Bang Bang Shrimp – The original version of the most copied appetizer. The name Bang Bang Shrimp is Thai in origin, coming from the Thai sweet chili sauce that envelops delicate fried shrimp. It’s not overly spicy but has enough of a kick to keep things interesting. Here is my version of Bonefish Bang Bang Shrimp.

Brushetta with Tomato and Basil

Brushetta with Tomato and Basil

Bruschetta refers to the bread. Just the bread. Whatever goes on top is just extra.
The word bruschetta is Italian, and it’s derived from the verb bruscare. That means to char or toast. Bruschetta is a word that the Italians invented to describe stale sliced bread which had been toasted and doused in olive oil, garlic, and salt. The tomato topping commonly associated with bruschetta isn’t a part of its traditional meaning, but in modern times it has. It includes diced tomatoes, garlic, onion, basil, and sometimes mozzarella cheese.

Ingredients
  • 1 box of Texas toast garlic bread
  • 4 large tomatoes or 8 Roma tomatoes
  • 8 basil leaves
  • ¼ cup of shredded Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
 
Instructions
  1. Core and chop the tomatoes. Roll the basil leaves and cut in small pieces. Chop the garlic. Add all to a bowl and add the Parmesan cheese.
  2. Mix the Balsamic Vinegar, olive oil, pepper and kosher salt. Pour over the tomato mix. Marinate for at least 1 hour.
  3. Toast the garlic bread per instructions of the box. Top with the tomato basil mix.

Huzaren Salade

Huzaren Salade

Dutch Potato Salad also called Huzaren Salade or as we called it at home Slaatje is a traditional Dutch dish presented at twelve o’clock at night. This salad is only called Huzaren Salade in the Netherlands. In the rest of the world they call a salad of meat, potatoes, pickles, onion, dressing and some mayonnaise on top, a Russian salad. The origin of the Huzaren Salade is – as is the case with many dishes – not completely known. Hussars were originally Hungarian horsemen, who camped in the Austrian army to fight against the Turks. It was impossible to make fire in the battle area, because they had to remain unseen. Therefore, the hussars took food that they had prepared in advance. Such as cold salads with potatoes, vegetables and meat. This is how these salads got the name Hussar salad.

Macaroni Dutch Style

My mother used to make macaroni differently then what you see here in the USA. Here they would call it Goulash. Since we don’t have the famous Honing Macaroni mix I improvised. Enjoy.
