Do you like Mighty Mite the gf substitute for Vegemite. I know you can get gf Vegemite now but haven't bothered switching back.

Despite my love for Vegemite, for that price I would rather eat something else on my toast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cottees Marmalade and Bega smooth peanut butter are my brekky spreads. But i prefer the big fried full english a couple of times a week and every day on the ships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NSWP Posted February 5, 2021 #158 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) OMG, I bought some chicken wings from iga, they were marinated in siriatchi sauce, some thing like that, superhot any way., Call the fire 🔥 brigade, i am on fire. Bring on the ice cream. Edited February 5, 2021 by NSWP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted February 5, 2021 #159 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Sriracha? Technically it's not as hot as Tabasco but Tabasco usually isn't used as a marinade, it's usually a seasoning. Sriracha marinade would be way too hot for me. I love spicy food but can't handle it the way I could when I was younger. Next time make a quick raita with Greek yoghurt and cucumber as a fire extinguisher.

That is the stuff, Sriracha, perhaps the coating had excess quantities of that. Very, very hot. Luckily I had a an ice cold litre bottle of Hardys Stamp Sem/Sauv/Blanc to assist in dousing the fire.

Luckily I had a an ice cold litre bottle of Hardys Stamp Sem/Sauv/Blanc to assist in dousing the fire. If it was marinated in it that would definitely be an excess quantity for me. It's usually a condiment or dipping sauce and a tiny amount is about all I could handle these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare OzKiwiJJ Posted February 6, 2021 #166 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Many years ago I went to a wine festival (really a conference) in the US. One of the sessions was called Gustatory Skydiving. It was about matching wine to chilli dishes. The base was poached chicken, with tortillas and sour cream as fire extinguishers. The wines were a sparkling, a white zinfandel, and a pinot noir. The chilli was Mexican-style mole sauces. The first mole was quite mild. The sparkling bubbled the heat away, and the zinfandel's slight sweetness soothed the palate. The pinot noir did nothing. The second was a bit hotter and the zinfandel won out there. The third was very hot to my palate and the only thing that worked with it was the pinot noir. It was a fascinating experiment.
