Rexperiments Part 1

For weekends spent at home or sa pagtitipid moments, here are a few food experiments that Rex did for a couple of weeks. I'm the guinea pig.

1. "Down South" Barbecue Ribs and KFC Fries.

Improvised barbecue ribs in Rex's pizza pugon.

2. The "morning after the Buffalo wings blue cheese sauce" pasta. 

So one movie night, we ordered Yellow cab. It was a decision to go for Shakey's buffalo wings or Yellow Cab's. Shakey's sauce is on the sour side, vinegar-y and note even spicy. It also has smaller portions. But its quite closer to "Buffalo Wings" compared to Yellow Cab's fried chicken. Solution? Make your own Buffalo Wings sauce. Frank's have their ready made Buffalo Wing sauce (add a bit of spice, pepper here and there), and voila. Just dip the bland Yellow cab wings and solb ka na.
The blue cheese sauce was a failure. Would never recommend putting sour cream+apple cider vinegar and Gorgonzola. Most of us are familiar with the Danish blue cheese on our buffalo wings dip. But since OOS ung Landmark at that time, our dip ended up as "pangpasta sauce". Surprisingly, this is the end result:

Oddly enough, De Cecco spaghetti pasta+that dip reminded me of the pasta I had in C's Italian Resto in Clark. (alam ko malamang hindi yan ung gamit na sauce, pero STILL PUEDENG-PUEDE NA). :) Add a bit of white button mushroom siguro and perfect na siya.

3. The Best Chicken Green Curry evah. 

I'm used to home-cooked hinalang version, that's a bit of gata and sili. As an alternative to chicken, my dad would use panga (manta ray ata ginagamit sa bahay because...its fins resembles that fish :(( )

Anyway, since we could not find the "perfect" curry, he made green curry from the spice mix we got from that Indian store in Paseo Magallanes (na medyo roach infected, but that's another story). No biggie, di naman lasang roach ung curry at di naman ako na food poison.

Anyway, sarap niya sa kanin. Next experiment naman ung yellow, red , Penang, Indian at Japanese curry...

4. Buffalo Wings for the nth Time

Rex, the wings maker. :) Another experiment using Franks Buffalo Wings+butter and more butter+ a bit of spice here and there.

I realized (insert push SKU here) na hindi pala talaga siya masarap sa wing dip :) True story. Sarap lang niya sa burger/sandwich. At least, best partner pa rin talaga siya sa sandwiches, lalo na with Gorgonzola Cheese.
