I was going to try to make cole slaw again. Except I shouldn't have taken two more shots of Jameson. Next thing I knew it was 6:00 a.m.
 
bump


I don't know why but post #42 cracks me up.
 
Eh doesn't matter. He's in 'Nam eating squid shet now, no ****ing coleslaw there. Or eating at the Burger King he found, without the buns of course.
 
You know, they don't even have cole slaw in this country. None. Zippo. They have a ******n Burger King. And KFC even. You would think that KFC would have cole slaw. Nope.
 
Kimchee. Or sauerkraut if you prefer.

Which is better? A sour kraut or.... Never mind.

I never knew what squid guts tasted like until yesterday. They ordered some whole cooked squids at the restaurant in Vung Tau. They weren't bad, but just the same I kind of like them cut up a bit a little more.

Squid guts do not taste like cole slaw. Well, they might taste like cole slaw after three or four months. You can find shredded cabbage in the market places, so I may well experiment with shredded cabbage and fish oil. Actually that is how kimchi is made. Cabbage, chilis and fish oil. Maybe I'll just eat some kimchi and call it cole slaw. Kimchi is more of a Korean thing but they do have Koreans here so they do have Kimchi.

In Korea they had 2 types of kimchi, winter and summer. They'd ferment that stuff in big crocks and bury them in the ground. Yeah, cabbage and some type of a red pepper (they'd lay 'em out on their roofs to dry I guess), don't know what else they put in it. Never could develop a taste for it, but I think I ate everything else, including, well, we won't go there. :)

Kimchi is an absolute delight when compared to a Baloot

It is a partly cooked duck egg that has been left to rot for 90 days.
One night when the place was packed in MoM's club in Olongapo RP. a hooker cracked one of those guys, it took exactly 6 seconds to evacuate the place.

Gawd I can imagine! :rofl:
 
It's balut

Not left for 90 days to rot.

It's a bird embryo, usually duck, boiled in the shell.

It's popular in Vietnam as well. I really don't like it. I'll eat it but not before drinking about five cans of Tiger beer, minimum. If you drown it with the salt and lime dip, most of the taste goes away.

When you can get it past your nose the swallowing is the easy part.

A friend had some in Taiwan, at a night market. I didn't have it.
None of your google references mention a 90 day rotting period- just the incubation time to get the embryo.

They do things a little different in the PI, so maybe that's it.

I'll bet none your references weren't written by a fleet sailor that was there in the mid 60s. I was. :)

What ever. at least now you know the topic, and remember that reference is written by people not necessarily the experts that is why Wiki allows updates and corrections.

You can argue all you want about it, but until you've tried one your no expert.

Theyhatch the egg for 18-20 days, soft boil it, and allow it to ferment. When you crack the shell, you'll actually hear the Psssssst as the gas escapes.
Thats when the tables and chairs get tipped over.
 
I love it half the Philippinos don't even like it: I quote :
The 18-day-old fertilized duck egg has revolted even the most daring foodies with its carnal textures, earning it lofty rankings on many a "most disgusting/strange/terrifying food" list.
While food journalists commonly label balut as the Philippines' "much loved delicacy," in reality Filipinos are decidedly split over their nation's oft-sung snack.
