The Dude of Food infuses tequila

On a visit to the Border Grill in Santa Monica, on an Easter Sunday morning, I was introduced to a cool new flavor. The Dude of Food was intrigued and decided to try to recreate this awesome taste at home. The famous chef and restaurant owner, Susan Feniger, knows about food and her staff impresses. The bartender on Sunday made us try this tequila infused with cucumber and jalapeno peppers and it was delightful. This was the flavor I needed to try an re-create.

So I went to the store and bought some agave tequila, cucumbers and a jalapeno pepper and put it all together in a mason jar. In a few days I looked forward to a cool refreshing taste.

A few days later I had created a spicy tequila that didn’t have quite enough cucumber flavor, but was still really good. The Dude of Food says ‘try this at home’.

The Dude of Food is curious to experience your food product.

After years of independent merchandising for surf companies and the Hawaiian Tropic brand, the Dude of Food is switching gears and working on a list of quality food and beverage products to offer in his upcoming market.

If your company is looking to get in other markets, whether domestic or international, then please by all means let’s talk.

Peteloaf by the Dude of Food.

The Dude of Food made Peteloaf and potatoes for dinner. Serve with salad, cold beer and BBQ sauce and everyone should be satisfied.

For next Valentines Day I’m gonna make a meat heart for my sweetheart. ;)

The Dude of Food reviews Las Rocas Garnacha

If you are in LA, on your way to a party and are looking for a good internationally grown red wine, choose Bodega Elena before you choose this wine. The reason people make wine is for enjoyment and taste. This Las Rochas Garnacha sports an underwhelming flavor and watered down taste at best. The red flavors try to creep through but don’t cut it. There are better choices in the $12. range.

The Dude of Food presents pasta Alfredo

So when I craved pasta with Alfredo sauce I just took a half pound of bacon, trimmed the fat and pan fried it. After draining the pan I added some onions and finely chopped garlic. Thawed frozen peas were added and then fresh broccoli . Later, cheating, I added a jar of Alfredo sauce and a small container of another brand of Alfredo sauce with some milk. I added a dash of salt, some black pepper. You can add basil or mint or whatever flavor you like and bring to a slow simmer.

Add Penne pasta and enjoy.

Top with cheese as preferred.

Spaghetti squash pasta and Miss Zurich!

From what the Dude of Food understands, you can purchase a device that you stick vegetables in and when you turn the handle it magically turns the veggies into spaghetti! This is a kitchen item that I need to add to my kitchen toolbox.

Right now the Dude of Food is sitting down with a coffee at home, pretending to be served by Miss Zurich in my amber room that overlooks the river. I ask her to dip her finger in my coffee to sweeten it just right. I sip my delicious cup of brew while relaxing in bed watching the ducks on the river. I’m imagining a zucchini pasta with assorted onions and mushrooms smothered in a cheesy white wine glaze served with a side of warmed buttery green beans and 3 poached eggs on sourdough toast and an avocado half is about to arrive. I see Miss Paris has joined in to help and is pushing a cart with food my way. 2 of Germany’s Next Top Models have arrived also. 1 is setting a up tray so I can eat in bed and the other is setting up a massage table so I can relax later. A breakfast for champions, served in bed by beautiful women, is a great way for the Dude of Food to greet the new day.

See what happens to you if you purchase one of these Paderno Spiralizer from Williams-Sonoma.

Bon Appetite.

The Dude of Food likes Leberkasse und kaffe

A good way to start a leisurely Saturday is with a Leberkasse from the downtown LA Grand Central food court.

They need to do something about the parking though. The street is $4.00 an hour and the lot across the street is $5.00 flat. Can’t imagine what it’s like on weekday but it must be madness. Probably not best suited for folks who are on a budget or quick lunch break unless you can walk from your office.
