  • 129. Fresh Ricotta Cheese Technically, ricotta isn't "cheese" per se, because it's made mainly from whey, a by-product of cheese making. But who the hell cares? Somehow, it gets a soft, creamy, almost cottony texture. This stuff is light years ahead of the Polly-O stuff in the plastic tubs in both flavor & texture. Generally slightly sweet, some brands made w/ lemon juice have a citrus-y note. The ONLY drawback to it is its extremely short shelf life. It starts to solidify & lose a lot of its character in 3 days or so. Aged versions are made, but I've never seen one for sale. But I will be keeping my eyes peeled for them. Oh, yes I will. If you're lucky enough to live near a store that stocks this stuff, or an Italian deli that makes a good version, do try some. You'll thank me later. Last but not least, it pairs well with wheat beers.
    I like the way the line runs up the back of the stocking.

      You know, I've never had goose. What's it taste like? Is it anything like duck? Is it oily like duck (which, mind, I don't think is a drawback)?

      • It's like duck... but more rich. There is a fattiness to it, but no more so than duck. When stuffing one, it's best to go with fruit flavors like apple or something citrusy. I usually stuff with a apple-rice mixture with brandy.

                • Iggy, there is a tiny store in the town I hunt near, and they carry this AMAZING pepper jack cheese by the block. When I head home I usually stop and grab like 10 blocks of it. I'll try and remember and grab some for you and your addiction.

                    Definitely my favorite meal. I'm eating an actual FREE lunch right now and it's awesome.

                      One of my best friends is fairly loaded (rich family) and he pays for me practically every time without fail when I go out to eat with him and his girlfriend. I've started throwing money at him just because I don't want to look like a mooch, but free challah french toast or machaca with black beans and home fries is the shit on a hungover Saturday morning right before the beach.

                      • Sometimes I feel bad when we're out to eat with my parents or Jess' parents, and they wont let me chip in on the bill. Then I remember that I pay for everything my kid (and soon to be kids) eat, and probably always will, and don't mind.

                          • I love doing the "oh no, please let me pay" and then letting my GF's parents pay. Feels fucking great to look like you're not a moocher.

                            • Yeah, I pull my wallet out every time. Terrified one day they'll take me up on it at a nice expensive place.

                              • That's EXACTLY what my dad did to me, so now I always just make him pay, unless it's his birthday.
