“to buy a pickle…” so goes an old ditty my dad used to break into spontaneously on occasion. I love most pickles, really love them. I love kosher dills, half sours, hamburger dills….most anything but sweet relish and bread and butter. IxNay on those. I’m not quite old enough to remember pickle “barrels” but… Continue reading “My Mother Gave Me A Nickle…” Oh Snap Pickles Review

Tulkoff Spicy Kimchi Aioli
Kimchi is the national dish of Korea, a melange of fermented vegetables, primarily cabbage, seasoned with garlic, cilantro, scallions and radish. It has been around since ancient times.

There are many variations… Continue reading Tulkoff Spicy Kimchi Aioli
Homemade Sauerkraut Recipe
I love homemade condiments of any kind; I make killer mustard and mayos, and sauerkraut when I dig up some patience. Traditionally, kraut in my house was simple but time consuming.

When the start-up falls in the food business,… Continue reading New Product Test – Sneaky Salts
Da Rosario Truffle Mayos
It was a triple truffle day at the BurgerDogBoy house yesterday; I scooped up some of the chocolate variety at a posh shop downtown, in order to obtain a free pass to exit the dog house Mrs. Burgerdogboy had banished me to earlier in the week. Turns out I needn’t have purchased said chocolate truffles,… Continue reading Da Rosario Truffle Mayos
Finally – a Relish for ME!
The fine folks at Donovan’s Cellar in NY asked if I minded if they sent me a sneak preview some of their new relish – Chili Maple, they called it. Believe it or not, Burgerdogboy is NEVER one to turn down free food, especially if it’s something new. Now I am not generally a relish… Continue reading Finally – a Relish for ME!
