Been way too long for a 'guess the ingredients' post.
4 vegetables, 3 herbs, 1 protein, 1 citrus fruit,
1 bottled condiment, 1 vegetable juice, salt and pepper.
The first reader to name all of the ingredients wins.

To paraphrase Bismark, no civilized man should inquire into the incredients of another man's politics or fruit/salad cocktail. He should merely consume it with trust and be rewarded with pleasure.
ReplyDeleteHad you merely consumed this, you most certainly would've been rewarded with pleasure, Doc.

Pretty close, Tillerman. Hint #1: Work on the condiment. An indispensable ingredient in any kitchen, it's now produced in New Jersey, but not originally.
DeleteTillerman is missing the caper's. How am I going to tell if the liquid is gin or vodka with all of that stuff in the way? Oh, Please tell me there is....liquid!
ReplyDeletewait a second, I just reread Tillermans ingredient list. Ketchup! please tell me no. Carrot juice! I hope not. Gin, it has to be gin, I know you hate vodka martinis.
DeleteDoug, this is an appetizer, not a cocktail! Hint #2: No booze in there.
DeleteLet someone else win. Do you deliver?
ReplyDeleteNo, but you've navigated my driveway before........
DeleteSo mayonnaise and not ketchup?
ReplyDeleteMayonnaise was originally made in Mahon, which I visited last year and will probably do so again this October.
Nope. Let's move on to the vegetable juice. Hint #3: This too originated somewhere else, but is now owned by a company in New Jersey.
DeleteV/8
ReplyDeleteBingo
DeleteOK. I'm going to have another shot at the bottled condiment first.
ReplyDeleteLea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce.
And I think George is right about the vegetable juice because..
ReplyDeleteV8 is made by Campbells Soups which is a NJ company
V8 and Worcestershire Sauce makes sense.
So then, just the citrus.......
DeleteCampbell Soups is about the only bright spot in Camden...
ReplyDeleteThe Aquarium is pretty cool. Oh, and the USS New Jersey is a fun couple of hours.
DeleteYour right, Baydog. I'd forgotten about the battleship. She'd make an impressive committee boat--over the line early and get taken out by a 16 inch round!
Deletemind the boom, eh?
DeleteEnough talk and speculation! I just want to be served!
ReplyDeleteI guess it has to be lime?
ReplyDeleteLime it is.
DeleteSo does this have a name (other than shrimp cocktail?)
DeleteSounds delicious.
No particular name- usually something like shrimp ceviche. If I see you in September, I'll bring you some.
DeleteAnd talking of Camden, my son and I did once sail a Laser regatta on the Delaware between Camden and Philadelphia. It was run by the Philadelphia Laser Fleet but we launched from the Camden side. I'm guessing it must have been around 1993, well before the USS New Jersey was moved to Camden. You are right. It would have made a fine committee boat.
ReplyDeleteAnd, by the way, we have a battleship just up the road from us. The USS Massachusetts is moored in Fall River. I must go and sail my Laser past it one day!
I don't understand this, Baydog.
ReplyDeleteWhy must you add so many ingredients to your shrimp cocktail?
Everyone knows that all you need are horseradish and ketchup. And why aren't the shrimp hooked over the rim of the glass like in the picture on the menu?
Surely it would taste better if you called it Ceviche de Camaron?
