This evening I made the mistake of trying some peppered grillsteaks (now GF!) as a shortcut in some quick Salisbury steak. (Not exactly how I would do it, but close enough with the touch of tomato.)
They really were not kidding with the “peppered”. It looked like a decent bit on the patties, but I figured it would be OK if I didn’t add any more to the sauce.
Nope! The dish turned out barely edible with the level of black pepper. And I like pepper. We had plenty of rice, and it was still kind of overwhelming.
Simmer those a while in sauce: pepper intensifies! 😦 Not really a surprise, but yeah. Sitting didn’t help the situation either, as I was reminded just trying to eat some leftovers anyway.
If I ever get those again, I hope brushing most of the pepper off before cooking might help. Not sure I would want to try simmering them in a sauce again, regardless.
Tumblr is apparently doing some crazy nonsense again, so it seems like a good time to remind everyone that Pillowfort.io is a new social media platform that aims to give users control of their content and how it’s seen and shared, as well as provide better communication tools to promote conversation and creativity.
