Does anyone (else) eat raw pasta?
I don't necessarily snack on it, but I have tried it before and it really isn't bad. Yesterday while at my house, my sister made an appetizer using tortellini and she made me try one of the dry ones from the package. Now, that is really interesting! Sort of gross, but sort of awesome all at the same time.
Oranges with olive oil and garlic
While searching, I also came across a Greek recipe of oranges drizzled with a mixture of olive oil and thyme honey and sometimes topped with fresh thyme. Much more of a dessert than a savory dish, but it sounds pretty good to me.
I'll tell you, though. The red onion and cumin and mint also sounds fantastic, and I think it would be good with some lime juice, as well. Looking forward to trying that.
Oranges with olive oil and garlic
Yes, uncle jimmy, I KNOW, lol!! But I was curious as to whether anyone else knows anything about this. I will use my instincts, though, and I might even, instead of using minced cloves or garlic powder, just rub a cut clove of garlic on the sliced oranges (bit of salt and lots and lots of pepper). That will be a game-time decision (literally, since the Steelers will be on), but I will definitely try to take a picture and post it. I will slice the oranges thin (but not paper-thin), and drizzle with olive oil. I will read about these other Sicilian recipes, though; can't wait! Thanks everybody!
Oranges with olive oil and garlic
My family does an appetizer of oranges drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with garlic, salt and pepper. Supposedly this might be something from around Naples. My great-grandmother used garlic powder and not fresh garlic, but in the past few years, we've always done these with the fresh garlic on Christmas. I'm going to make these for an appetizer with Sunday dinner, but when I googled 'oranges with olive oil and garlic' out of curiousity, I was surprised that there were no matches. I've searched around and I can't seem to find a mention of these anywhere. Has anyone ever heard of this? Obviously this doesn't really require a recipe, but I still thought I'd find something about it. Thanks!
