Food & Drink - 9 March 2007

I'm having a large Kentucky Derby party (about 65 people) on May 5th which happens to be Cinco De Mayo, so I figured I'd do a Mexican theme. I'm really considering having a pig roasted and also setting up a taco station where everyone can make their own. Maybe a nice light Gazpacho soup served in shot glasses and a spicy dish of Mexican cocktail shrimp.

I'm looking for lighter/elegant recipes that would go along with the heavier food. Any ideas or suggestions?

Please don't suggest I "google" as I'd like recipes that people have actually tried and liked. Thanks

And your favorite ones! I love any kind of salad, and strawberry-banana yogurt. Mmm, mmm, mmm!

I just found out I had asthma, so I really want to start eating more healthy! After all, my body is the temple of the Holy Spirit!

I used to work retail and think of off-the-wall questions. One of the questions pertained to yogurt flavors. They make all sorts of flavors of yogurt from chocolate to blueberry and cheesecake, etc. but no apple nor grape. Anyone have any ideas on why that is? Thanks!

I went a little overboard one night and threw up after drinking tequila and then beer. I now find myself unable to drink beer at all. I can take a few sips but I feel sick and worry that I will vomit. I've only ever vomited from drinking twice, the first was under similar circumstances (hard alcohol followed by beer), and after that I was unable to drink beer for almost a year. I don't typically drink heavily but being completely unable to drink beer put a big crimp in my social life. I really don't want to go through it again, any advice?

What exactly is fruit concentrate? Is it something to avoid?

Welches makes that claim that all of their juices are 100% juice; but when I was drinking a bottle of orange-mango welches juice, it was 8%juice and 92% concentrate... hmm.

When ever I prepare mutton biryani , the mutton pieces tend to turn nearly black in colour. It tastes good but I'm not able to find out the reason for this change in meat colour. Tho it tastes good it does not look that appealing.
I marinate the mutton in ginger, garlic, curd, chilli powder, turmeric powder, salt and garam masala powder for a few hour before cooking.
Can anyone help me find where the fault lies?
Thanks in advance.

I'm not a huge martini drinker, but I do enjoy one from time to time. I'm going out to a restuarant with a great bar, what kind of martini should I ask for. Most of the martinis I have had were made at people's homes, and were very fruity.

I know I can order, an appletini or a chocolate martini. But, what are some other fruity martinis that I can order at a bar. I need to know names, so that I can go up to the bar, order and know what I'm getting.

Ideas?
