cheers and jeers: condiments edition

cheers to:

  • mayonnaise.  i always love this creamy tangy addition to sandwiches.
  • hoisin sauce.  on mushu or soong, this quasi-bbq asian sauce is so very tasty.
  • frank's hot sauce.  this gives my morning egg sandwich a kick!

jeers to:

  • "fresh" salsa in the grocery store refrigerator section with sugar in it!  yucky, plus makes the container sticky, plus feels like a cheap ploy.
  • those little tamarind and cilantro sauces that come at the beginning of the meal in indian restaurants.  i cannot for the life of me recreate them at home!
  • english mustard.  hooo-ey!  a repressed culture puts all its spice and sweat into one little substance.
