Black Pepper and Lime Oven Fries

recipe from WFMU

Black Pepper and Lime Oven Fries
1 1/2 pounds Small potatoes, cut into wedges
3 Tbl extra virgin olive oil
sea salt & freshly ground pepper
1 lime
1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Preheat oven to 375 degrees, oven racks in the middle. In a medium bowl toss the potato wedges with olive oil, a few big pinches of sea salt,(or "punches" as i first read it...) and five or six cranks of the pepper grinder. Arrange the potatoes cut side down on a baking sheet. Place in the oven for 30-35 minutes, tossing the potatoes with a metal spatula half way through.

While the potatoes are cooking, zest the lime and cut it into a few wedges.

When the potatoes are cooked through, remove them from the oven, taste, and adjust the seasonings. Add more salt and pepper to taste (don't skimp on the pepper!). Arrange on a platter, drizzled with lime juice and dusted with the lime zest and Parmesan.

Cheese Terminology

http://www.slashfood.com/2006/12/29/know-your-cheese-terminology/

Fresh - High moisture cheeses that have not been aged, like cottage cheese, cream cheese, feta, mascarpone and ricotta.

Soft-Ripened - These have hard rinds and soft interiors, like brie and camembert. They often have edible rinds made by "spraying the cheese with Penicillium candidum mold before a brief aging period."

Semi-Soft - Cheeses that are neither hard, nor runny, but that are high in moisture and creamy in texture, like Monterey Jack, fontina or havarti. They are often easy to grate and slice.

Firm/Hard - Less creamy than soft cheeses, but ranging in texture from slightly elastic to brittle. These are also good grating cheeses and tend to melt well. The category includes Asiago, cheddar, Gruyere, Swiss and Parmesan.

Blue - Cheeses with added mold that have strong flavors and are characterized by blue or blue-green veins, like Danish blue or gorgonzola.

Pasta Filata - Cooked and pulled cheeses like Mozzarella and provolone fall into this category and the cheeses can be hard of soft when finished.

Natural Rind - Long-aged cheeses develop a rind as they sit, like English Stilton or Lancashire.

Washed-Rind - These are washed with brines to encourage the growth of bacteria and rind-formation. These are frequently also semi-soft cheeses inside the rind and have strong flavors and smells. They include Taleggio and Muenster.

Processed - These aren't real cheeses, but are actually cheese byproducts, made with added flavoring, stabilizers and emulsifiers. American cheese and "cheese flavored" spreads fall into this category.

Anti-Networking in the Workplace

1. Make a thorough assessment of which people are most important to your career prospects. Try to piss them all off at least once a day. If it helps you to keep track you can add their names to every page of your diary, with a tick box next to each.

2. Tell your workmates they are bad at their jobs - one at a time - all of them. Slag off your work colleagues to their friends. Word will get back to them almost straight away, and somehow it's more irritating that way.

3. Make it clear you consider yourself the only person with any skill, ideas and drive in the company. You also do all the work. In fact, if you left the place would quickly go to the wall. Approach the personnel department and encourage them to write a company hymn about you. Try to get your name embossed in gold on everyone's pay slips, or included in the company mission statement.

4. Use savage and offensive language at the slightest provocation. If in doubt, swear like a sailor.

5. Try to avoid conversation wherever possible. Make it clear that you view talking as a waste of your precious time, and time is money. In fact, why not present the unwelcome visitor with an itemised bill when they leave.

6. If you do get trapped in a conversation, use body language, sighs and other vocal effects to make it clear you don't care and you aren't listening

7. If that doesn't work, try hogging the conversation. Butt into the middle of their sentences and turn the subject to something completely unrelated that happened to you.

8. View all conversees with deep suspicion. Let's face it, given your reputation they're probably only here to take the piss or win a bet.

9. Never remember anyone's name. Call everyone "mate". People will respect your dedication to worker equality.

10. Repeat the following phrase loudly, to anyone who gets close enough...
"all men/women are bastards/neurotic" (delete where appropriate depending on your gender)
This is an amazingly effective way to alienate and annoy half your colleagues at a stroke.
