Keep it up Dan, about as on topic as possible. I'm surprised that you rose to the bait Michael. Look at who you're responding to. Dan hardly needs encouragement to keep posting and I suspect that that ole fry cook just love seeing Dan rise to his bait *EACH* *AND* *EVERY* time he throws out a hook. It annoys me that Dan can't restrain himself from responding, and reresponding again, but I expected better from you, Michael. Why does it annoy you? He doesn't get a rise out of me, just a response. A rise would be if I were ****ed off or something, and I know he's just a nobody Frycook (all of his multiple personalities). OK, but just remember, you asked for an explanation. He's generally disruptive in this newsgroup, and would go away if he weren't getting responses. I'd prefer that he went away unfulfilled. As long as you keep responding to him, he'll stick around, WHICH IS'NT WHAT I WANT! DON'T YOU GET IT DAN? YOU'RE GIVING HIM EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS! As I see it, there are two explanations: 1. You're really that f**king stupid. 2. You're really the fry cook and you're playing a very clever game. Whichever it is, I find it annoying, and FWIW, I don't think it's explanation number 2. 3. Maybe I do it expressly to annoy you. 4. I don't see it as giving him anything. He's not going away, and neither am I. You should lighten up, Chuck. It's not good for ones health to be all annoyed at such trivial things. Definitely #1. BTW, I never asked you to go away. I responded originally to Michael saying that I thought he was smarter than to have responded to the fry cook. I long ago gave up expecting you to do anything intellegent, but occasionally I say to myself, "He can't really be *THAT* stupid. He'll learn." Wrong every time. :~( Maybe you're the one with intellegence problem. Just because it bothers you don't make it stupid if anyone else replies to him. You're not the authority on here or anywhere. You asked why I was annoyed. I'm annoyed because I see something wrong and there's nothing I can do to make it better, and I see you, actively making it worse. Dan, you have no impulse control. Intellegence is the capacity to adapt, but you don't. The fry cook posts, and Dan responds, ... every time. People (not only me) tell Dan, "Don't play with trolls." The fry cook posts, and Dan responds. It's really too bad, because aside from that trait, you seem to be a mice guy, with a lot of experience eating sushi.

Dan, cool to hear about your experience with the shikaro. What is the
texture like? Haven't come across it yet. And regarding trolling posts to the board - that's what killfilters are for, yes? I've been lurking and intermittently posting here since, like, '97. I remember "Frycook". Don't let the bad apples spoil the sushi. Scoop |

I've had shirako also, and was aware of it's origin when I ate it. It
is disturbingly creamy, but given what it is, I'd say that's a given. Not a delicacy for the faint of heart or squeamish amongst you. Prepared properly with ponzu, it is very good.

SNIP I don't see the harm, and don't think this leads to the downfall of humanity. It's really too bad, because aside from that trait, you seem to be a mice guy, with a lot of experience eating sushi. Thanks, I enjoy sushi very much. We'll see what I can do to change in the future. Perhaps we all can make some changes. maybe if you don't humor the guy, he goes off and tortures the cat instead. there's something about the different nuances of taste & texture that are worth sharing about. it's no different than enjoying wine. if some folks post things you'd rather not read, that's what killfiles are for. happy holidays. barry chin pasadena, ca |

Gerry wrote: SNIP I know have three things I'd prefer to avoid; natto, shirako and grated yama-imo. Texture is the main component in all of them, but I didn't care for the taste of the shirako eithr. It's very mild tasting, taking on the ponzu sauce and pickled diakon. The only things I avoid are natto and ika shiokara. Both have a foul taste, in my opinion. But maybe it's like Limburger cheese. i didn't care for natto until my chef confided to me that he didn't like it either, but he did with mixed with raw egg & spicy mustard on rice. it's not bad that way. besides the raw egg/mustard natto concoction, this chef is the first chef i've patronized that uses yuzu/yuzu kosho a lot. i don't think i've had tai i enjoyed more than with yuzu and a little salt. it's also a lot more subtle than lemon on mirugai. too bad his rice tends to be on the hard side or i'd rate him a LOT higher... bc |

The texture is alright. What I find off-putting is how much sake I have to drink to get it's "residue" out of my mouth. For those who don't like the cream-cheese mouth-coating problem I find this stuff a little more tenacious.

I believe it is a Winter season item, only had it twice and I
think the last time was a year ago. Art? Do you recall when that was? I remember it was at Toraya in Arlington. I don't think it was a year ago, unless time does really fly that fast. It was the first and only time I've had it. I'd definitely order it again. It would have been even better if Dan hadn't kept making "nuts" comments everytime I ate a piece. ![]() --Art "Usenet is like a herd of performing elephants with diarrhea -- massive, difficult to redirect, awe-inspiring, entertaining,and a source of mind-boggling amounts of excrement when you least expect it." - Gene Spafford, 1992 |
