Gourmet Condiments

Get your Squeezie bottles ready! "Step it up a notch" and make some interesting condiments for burgers and dogs. The curry ketchup recipe is the one that led me to the CurryWurst recipe. The Comeback sauce is a southern recipe, known as the Queen Mother of sauces! It's extremely popular in Jackson, Mississippi, and is great on salads, but also as a dip for all sorts of meats. It is sort of similar to Thousand Island, but much, much better.

This is a wonderful, crunchy salad which uses Ricotta Salata. It's one of Italy's most unusual sheep's milk cheeses. The milk curds and whey used to make this cheese are pressed and dried even before the cheese is aged, giving this pure white cheese Ricotta_salataa dense but slightly spongy texture and a salty, milky flavor -- like a dry Italian feta.
