...or maybe it doesn't. I admit that I'm a little tipsy as I post this, but I had such an amazing dinner that I wanted to talk about it. Tonight is the first night of the Olympics, so the booze, sweets and yummy foods are aplenty.I had the most amazing cucumber salad and deep fried/baked drumsticks. Add a bottle of pinot grigio and wow. Me, being super inquisitive, I wanted to know how everything was made. Here is an approximate recap of the recipes. I haven't tried these yet, but I will soon.
Cucumber salad ingredients
- Dill
- Cucumbers
- Lemon / lime juice (freshly squeezed)
- Feta cheese
- Olive oil
- Red peppers (if desired)
- Salt (to draw out the sweetness)
- White/Red onions
Double beer battered drumsticks
- Chicken drum sticks
- Beer + buttermilk mixture
- Flour
- Oil (for deepfrying)
After deep frying, bake.
I swear, it was really good. I'll most likely try these dishes in my own kitchen.
And, for those who are taking part. Happy Olympics. Go Canada, go!
