Four Foods on Friday

April 17th, 2008

Filed Under FFoF |

(Posting today for a link but I’ll bump it tomorrow. Still time for you to join in if ya like!) Time for this week’s Four Foods on Friday #25 from Val. Feel free to join in and play along!

Here are this week’s four questions.

#1. Cottage cheese. Small curd, large curd, chunk or whipped? Hmm, I can go for any size or texture except runny. (Not sure what curd that falls under) I don’t like to feel like I’m drinking milk along with my curd. ;) Anyone like to put anything on theirs? I put…ready for it? A1 steaksauce on mine. Don’t knock it til ya try it!

#2. Burgers. Made fresh, preformed fresh or preformed frozen? I prefer made fresh. Hubby likes it when I spice ‘em up a bit with Lea and Perrin’s Worchestire (sp?) sauce and/or A1. Onion soup works too for a little more gourmet taste.

#3. If you could only buy one kind of salad dressing what would it be? Kraft Catalina French. If they were out of that then Parmesan Peppercorn.

#4. Share a crockpot or slow cooker recipe.

Get a nice size pork shoulder, put it in the crock pot, cover it with water until its over the roast. Pour in half a bottle of Hickory Liquid Smoke, cover and let simmer all day. When you come home to your yummy smelling home, take the roast out and put it in a bowl. Let it rest for 10 minutes then toss with coarse Hawaiian salt and you have a delicious easy kalua pig recipe! No imu required! (Best served with 2 scoops sticky rice and some aloha shoyu!)

I love the thoughts of that kulua pig from a crockpot recipe. Yum!

If you love the thought then you have to make it sometime soon. She makes it for me and it is unbelievably good and with such little effort! I will say, however, if you like your Kalua pig extra greasy then you won’t like the crock pot method. Instead, it is, dare I say, healthier… But not by way of losing the flavor. MMMM!

Thanks

I guess I know what I’m getting at the grocery next weekend!

Woah! A-1 on your cottage cheese. How did that come about? I’ll have to try your crockpot pork dish.

Blame it on my aunt! She intro’d it to me as a kid when I made fun of her for eating it. Then my hubby did the same to me and now he loves it too!

I have never heard of Hawaiian salt? Oh, and I LOVE A1…and yes, that on cottage cheese does sound yummy! I agree with your dressing selections!

Mmm, both your burger and pork shoulder sound yummy :).

I forgot about putting a roast in the crock pot. I need to do that. They always turn out so yummy.

Thanks for playing Four Foods On Friday!
Stumbled.
Angie, re the cottage cheese. Yes, sometimes with cherry or grape tomatoes. Or sometimes with applesauce. Or sometimes with pears.

What’s aloha shoyu? A special kind of soy sauce?
Pele on April 20, 2008 6:44 am
Yes, its soy sauce sold in Hawaii/west coast but is also available online. http://www.alohashoyu.com If it’s not available in your area the most comparable product is Kikkoman Reduced Sodium.

Your crock pot recipe sounds delicious! That would be good to serve at a Luau themed party. That would be so fun. It wouldn’t be as fun as being in Hawaii at a real luau, but it would still be fun.
