I admit I don't understand sangria. Why not just drink wine?
Because they aren't the same?

This guy was an expert and clearly enjoyed what he did. He asked food and wine preferences and based on that offered samples of the cheeses. He was always spot on. I still remember how amazing the Corsican sheeps milk cheese was that he recommended to me.Personalised service? Now I don't know if it is me having dirty mind, or if it is something weird going on in your small speciality stores, but when I go to a shop, I choose, pay and leave. I don't do with the owner/shop assistant poetry and we are both aware of our roles, e.g, that he is NOT my doctor! (Nor cheese doctor, because hopefully the cheeses they are selling are healthy and don't need medical intervention.)
As a topping. For the butter it is mostly flour, milk and eggs. I have never heard anyone putting anything else in pancakes. Maybe we do different pancakes. Our ones are like crepes.@hanca, I think buttermilk is mostly an American ingredient, from what I've read. No doubt it's found in Europe but I've not seen many Euro baking recipes that call for it.
Yogurt and buttermilk have similar properties in baking and are mostly substitutable. Thus, if you add yogurt as an ingredient in pancakes, the result should be similar to buttermilk pancakes.
Did you mean, though, that you use yogurt as an ingredient in the pancakes, or as a topping?
What is a blintz?
no, my family is pretty skilled at preparing salmon, so that is not the issue. Thanks anyway.Just a suggestion. Maybe it's not prepared the right way? I don't know if you are talking about making it at home or getting it out somewhere.......
Colombia may be different from Argentina, don't you think? Latin America is a big place. @oleada is all coffee in Colombia really that bad? The mind boggles.
Kindly point out where I said every resident uses or can afford to use said product. If not, try and unclench.Yes, I do realize that Colombia and Argentina are two totally different countries. The mind boggles at your arrogance whenever someone doesn't agree with you.
Just because a country is known for coffee production doesn't mean every resident uses or can afford to use that product.
Is it weird that I like relish on my burgers but can't stand pickles?
As do I.I like everything tomato - except for ketchup.
No. I like everything tomato - except for ketchup. (Unless it is mixed with mayo on a burger ala Burger King. Because mayo is all that. )
You're crazy.I hate cheese. HATE it. (Except mozzarella.) People look at me like I'm crazy when I say that, but I can't help it. I've hated it ever since I was little.

If anyone in my circle hosts dinner, it would be moi. And that puts me in control No one has complained about the lack of chopped liver so far. When I invite people I don't know well, I ask about food allergies and aversions. Lately, most good restaurants have been asking this ahead of time as well.Okay, people. I've got to ask.
How do you expect other people to deal with all of these predilections? There are a few posters who have already said that they will eat even foods they can't stand if it's served up by someone else. Does that hold true for everyone? If not, how do you want your hosts to deal with the situation?
