Ambrosia
http://www.geekychef.com/2008/12/ambrosia.html?m=0
From the Battlestar Galactica television show
Well, today is New Years Eve and I'm sure many of you toasters are going to consuming alcohol tonight, so why not do it Battlestar style? Despite its meaning "the food of the Gods" in Greek mythology (which is a highly prevalent theme in Battlestar), I don't think anyone is really sure exactly what the Battlestar version of Ambrosia is. I've heard people say it's absinthe or possibly a kind of wine, but that's just no fun. Today I give you a recipe I came across for an ambrosia mixed drink, bright green and guaranteed to get you good and frakked for the new year. The original recipe calls for a some sort of frozen concoction maker but I think the recipe stands on it's own, blended or just on the rocks. Happy New Year! So say we all!
Ingredients
6 oz Midori
4 oz Blue Curacao
2 oz lime juice
Directions
Add all ingredients to the Margaritaville Frozen Concoction Maker pitcher (or a blender) and add ice as directed in the owners manual. Makes 36 oz. of delicious concoction. Garnish with a stemmed cherry and enjoy!

Tooter Fish Popkin! (Dark Tower's Tuna Fish Sandwich)
ReplyDeleteRoland Deschain has always had a bit of trouble speaking our speech. He pronounces tuna fish as tooter fish. Aspirin is Astin. Now a Popkin is High Speech for sandwich. But I digress... Anyways, make your favorite gunslinger's favorite sandwich, and keep in mind it makes two sandwiches (enough to share with your ka-tet!) Remember the face of your father.
Thankee-sai.
1 6oz. Can of Tuna
1/4 cup mayonnaise (or to taste)
1/2 celery stick (cut into small cubes)
2 Tblsp sweet relish
1 tsp dill
4 pieces of wheat bread
cracked pepper
Open and drain tuna. Put into a mixing bowl. Cut up the celery and add to bowl. Throw everything else in (excluding the bread and pepper!). Mix. Put tuna on bread (two sandwiches) and add cracked pepper.
Alright, I gave you something to work with.. now make it work.

ReplyDeleteHah! And thanks to the green color it can double as Deus Ex 1 ambrosia. Hopefully I'll manage not to SPEEL MY DREENK.
ReplyDeleteI just found your blog by googling "Ambrosia," and it's freaking (fracking) amazing. I can't wait to surprise my boyfriend with some nerdy recipes. :D
