Foods that pair together PERFECTLY
So, that BBQ Pizza recipe. . . Beer and Pizza: That’s what I’m talking about here. Red wine and spaghetti, olives and tomato’s, peanut butter & jelly, tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, you can’t have one without the other. Well, you CAN, but it’s just not gonna be as good. So that’s the question I pose – WHAT are perfectly paired foods?
It happens. And when it does, it’s not pretty. The wife calls out “Dinners ready!” and we all gather in the kitchen to serve our selfs and find that tonights dinner is her wonderful spaghetti. . . but there’s no garlic toast. I can eat spaghetti without red wine, but no garlic toast?! It’s heart breaking.
Fresh batch of chocolate chip cookies comes out of the oven, let em’ cool for a couple minutes, toss 2 or 3 on a plate, grab a glass and open the fridge door….no milk. ”The horror!” < Apocalypse Now impersonation of Colonel Kurtz played by Marlon Brando> (not that I won’t eat the cookies or anything…I’m just sayin’….)
So, WHAT say you all?
What are PERFECTLY paired foods?

WarsawNan – Cheeseburger & fries
Chili & peanut butter sandwich
Pork chops & applesauce

Salt rising toast & butter – (Salt Rising Bread is the PERFECT toasting bread. Not found west of the Mississippi. You must make it yourself. It’s complicated, but well worth the effort if you’re a big fan of Toast and Butter)
Dee L – Ham/Beans & Cornbread
Sausage/Gravy and bisquits
Beans and Weenies
