PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]
Exciting vacancy for highly motivated individual
ha, ha, brilliant as always, but where the .........is the Omnibus issue. You are very creative with your excuses - charming;)
Szarlotka is on an unofficial strike again (poor him) - bless his soul. This man has been working soooo hard over the years on the Omnibus editions, so he deserves all the glory and all the time off he can get!!!!!!!!!!!!
POLSKA SA£ATKA JARZYNOWA z majoneze on PF (POLISH VEGETABLE SALAD with majo on)For those who have ever tried, made, tasted, experienced the simple, yet very nourishing and tasty salad know that you either hate it, or love it.
It is a simple recipe (so is setting and running any forum), but the key to success is in the ingredience and the person who prepares the salad, you- the cook, on PF the ADM/Mods.
I like mine chopped in rather large chunks, with some majo/mustard and lots of pepper. My niece likes her finally chopped and she would not eat mine, which is not a problem because there is more left for me.
*20 dkg of potatos (ziemniaki) (common, cheap vegetable with lots of carb - if one eats too much of it, there is a chance of weight gain, indigestion and an overall sluggishness often lasting for days)
*10 dkg of carrots (marchewka) (popular, cheap vegetable, sweet in taste and very good for one's eyesight- definitely a winner, not to mention the brilliant orange colour, which enhances the looks of the dish and the presentation)
*5 dkg of celery (apparently good for the overall stamina, if you know what I mean)
*5 dkg of parsley (pietruszka) (heavy duretic, a tad sweet, but with hardly any taste)
*10 dkg of sour pickles (sour only it its name, because it has so much value, that one would be foolish not to add it to the salad, not to mention the fact the green colour can add to the presentation and provide that slightly tangy taste)
*10 dkg of green peas (zielony groszek) (lovely for the presentation with its bright colour, crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside - mniam)
*10 dkg of sour apples (kwasne jablka)-(yes, those are essential to the salad, but don't overdue it please, otherwise you will end up with too much of the sour taste)
*1-2 hard boiled eggs (jajka na twardo)-(lots of protein, enhances texture)
*5 dkg of pickled mashrooms (grzyby marynowane) (I personally don't put those in my salad, but in the spirit of creativity one can)
*¼ l of majo (majonez) - either homemade or store bough
**(the problem with majo is the amount - one cannot add too much or too little, but the salad without majo is like a bicycle without wheels, or a forum without ADM/MODS, majo binds the salad and enhances its taste)
*salt and pepper to taste
*** Some recipes call for pickled herring (Sledz), but I personally don't add Sledz to mine - just never liked it in that combination.
So:
Boil potatoes, carrot, celery, eggs and so on. Chop, chop, chop like crazy. Mix it all up, add the majo/mustard, spices to taste and voila!!!!!!!!
You have one good Polish meal.
If you are drinking alcohol, add more majo since it contains a lot of fat and it is claimed to eliminate some of the unwanted alcohol consumption side -effects.
SMACZNEGO!!!!!
