Rooster_Ties Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Maybe more 'weird' than controversial, but ever since I was a kid (maybe 7 years old), I've always loved mustard on french fries -- WAY more than ketchup. There are some curry-ketchups I've had (at some 'German'-street-food restaurants here in DC in the last 6-8 years) that are pretty good too. But 90% of the time, it's mustard for me on french fries -- for as long as I can remember (i.e going on 44 years now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shrdlu Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Yes, ham must have mustard on it. My late wife was from Ontario, Canada. Her parents took her to England in the 60s. She was used to that miserable, weak North American French's muck. (Jay Leno said of it "We may not be French, but we sure are yellow.".) She had a ham sandwich and plastered it with English mustard (made with only mustard powder and water) and, she said, it nearly blew her head off. The only other thing she remembered from her visit was dog shit on the sidewalks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Referentzhunter Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 (edited) In some parts of Belgique and France they put French fries with sauce on a baquette. Whyy..... ???????????? As if that is tasty. But the Dutchman know how to shock the rational and normal 'foodcommunity' and rape your taste buds completly because they've designed ' De kapsalon'. Doner (Shoarma -like meat), salad, garlicsauce, French fries, all covered in melted cheap Cheese ( cheese ??). The dutchman eats that on saturdaynights for pleasure. Disgusting invention.

That sounds like it would be a huge hit in Tokyo. Just sprinkle with katsuobushi Chip butties have a long culinary history in the north of England. Recipe. Two slices of bread & butter Pile of chips on one slice. That's fries for non Brits. Liberal dose of salt and vinegar. Top with second slice. I have a chip butty when we have fish & chips at home. My wife, who is Japanese, is well used to them but initially looked on in disbelief. The Indians also got in on the act - Edited November 27, 2019 by kinuta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked because I wondered if they were the English translation for mochi, which is a very popular item in Japan. It's made from glutinous rice pounded into a sticky paste and shaped into semi spherical morsels. I can't stand the stuff but it's widely eaten, especially at New Year when ,without fail, several old folks choke to death on it. However this type is excellent - Edited December 9, 2019 by kinuta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marzz Posted December 10, 2019 Report Share Posted December 10, 2019 Aussies think it's perfectly normal to top a pizza with Pineapple and/or Bacon & Egg!!! Granted the quality of (takeout) pizza base is so awful that any topping might improve it, but bacon & eggs? Then again, this from the country that proudly ingests Vegemite! Vegemite is basically road asphalt with insane levels of salt added. Yum. Vegemite on pizza, perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is the egg prepared? I'm picturing a big fried egg in the middle of the pie. I've seen them crack open a raw egg over the just cooked pizza, so it's still kinda runny. The bacon went in with the pizza at the start and so is almost dust at this point! edit - Captain Howdy, yeah we call it (with pineapple) a Hawaiian pizza here as well.

The mochi is macha, green tea, flavour and is soft and light. Regular mochi is usually harder and comes in blocks like tofu. There are quite a selection of sweets filled with anzu.

kinuta Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 (edited) Raw eggs are eaten with Sukiyaki and Gyudon. Gyudon(rice bowl with beef) restaurants always offer raw egg. Some people add a dash of shoyu (soy sauce). I always add a heap of red chilli flakes. I think any kind of sweet pizza, especially pineapple, is utterly horrible.

Shrdlu Posted December 11, 2019 Report Share Posted December 11, 2019 I'm gonna make you all mad now, because I am very fond of Waffle House. Not for waffles, though they make good ones. That name is misleading. It is a Southern grub place, of course. They have an excellent country ham, and, back in the 90s, when America was suffering under battery acid coffee (Maxwell House, Folgers and all the others in the 3 lb tins), Waffle House's coffee was quite decent.
