Okay. We have been all over the world and tasted some of the best food out there. From Military cooking, to off instillation eateries at home or abroad. We all have had some darn good grub.
What was your favorite? (I know I have a problem choosing just one)
What was your favorite recipe you ever learned?
One of my favorite was a small place in Turkey, out side the gate at Incerlik AB. It was a Italian place that served Lasagna in a stone bowl. I have no idea why I remember it (ate there in 1995). But if food can make you remember it for that long, means it was good.
Favorite recipe. A salsa recipe given to me when I was in Korea by another Airmen. I have altered it over time but still use it today.
3/4 cup Chopped Jalapinos (seeds removed)
3/4 cup Chopped Serrano peppers. (Seeds removed) (Pro tip..use a metal measuring spoon to remove seeds)
4 vine ripe tomatoes
about 4 Red Chili's.. If none I use a half of can of Chopped green chilis
2 Tbls of Garlic or 1 clove
One 1.25oz. package of Ortega Taco mix
1/2 cup of loosely cut Cilantro
Blend.
This is a sweet version with a little kick. IF you want a hotter version, you can leave the seeds in some of the peppers, or just use more peppers.
This is great alone, on sandwiches, or mixes well with cheese for some hot queso dip.
Enjoy

Both are awesome. Was at Osan, don't remember the place but always good Bulgogi. And German Schnitzel. I am glad I only visited, if I would have been stationed there me and the Fit test would have been at odds. The Schnitzel was awesome!

I regressed Hunters schnitzel. Which is the schnitzel covered in a mushroom gravy with French fries. Usually accompanied with a picked salad of some sort and of course, beer ! There are variations and all good

I would follow that up with: from the Kindersbach hotel by the now closed Hahn Air Base in Germany. Oh, and make that a Gross Beir Bitte!

In Japan, I couldn't read or speak Japanese. Some of the restaurants had mock ups of their food in the front window you could point to, some didn't. The restaurant outside Iwakuni didn't. I would go in, get the menu and just point at something random. I had no idea what is was but I never had a bad dish. I wound up leaving Japan with a love of Danbury. Damn that is good stuff. Haven't found a place here that can make it good. Well thats the best in the Military.
The best ever is the tortilini at BACI in Queen Creek, AZ.
