Booze in food

Yes, I'm watching Food Network again. The Best Of, to be specific. I had my back to the TV, since I'm on the computer, and I heard the words that we all love to hear: Jim Beam. It's in a Kentucky Bourbon Pecan Pie from Tullio's Pastry Shop in NC.

I want pecan pie. Or some brownies. I should bake now.

ooohh! Walnut pie with chocolate--yes! Must figure out a recipe, stat!

Derby pie - isn't that a conglomeration of a pecan pie & a chocolate chip pie, or something? Whatever it is, it sounds good.

That's the one. But since I'm a Californian, I'm supposed to cook Californian--at least that's what Ahnold tells us. So walnuts it shall be.

I want some brownies too. Hmmm, now where did I put that all too important ingredient? Aaah! There it is, right next to the bong!

I have a recipe, though I have been asked to refrain from bringing them to family Christmas parties anymore. I guess I can see their point, but I ate them when I was a kid, and they didn't hurt me any.

i find that most dishes are made better with a little booze mixed in. some of them work better if the mixing in part is done in your somach.

When I was overseas, I saw this old cook on tv; Justin Wilson, who always put some wiiine in the pot, and some in the cook.

Funny, that's where I keep mine too.

Nah, that's what you get the morning after drinking too much Beam.

When I was growing up I used to eat a tremedous amount of Rum balls my parents made at Christmas. They were rather potent, and I was flying after 10 or so.

Ah yes- Justin Wilson- the cajun chef. Used to be on PBS. The original drunk cook. True quote- "Some people say that I like to drink a little Wine with my food. Thats a lie. I like to drinka lot of Wine with my food."
