Toooooo funny-

Davis, who grew up in Coffeeville, Miss., remembers Aunt Lella's
specific verbal rendition of her recipe: "Well, first you make the
mayonnaise."

Once, Davis said, she wasn't going to make homemade mayonnaise, and
asked her aunt to tell her the proportions on the cheese, pimentos and
spices. "There was this long pause and then she said, `Well, you might
as well not bother,' " recalled Davis.

Not only does it give a good recipe and explanation of pimento cheese
(to include Elvis, lol) and just as I had mentioned, the article
specifically mentions it being revered at Augusta, which is *the*
hardest ticket in sports to get and a very sacred place to many.

Probably not. I know you aren't that fond of Duke's mayo, but I think
I am going to use it in Pimento Cheese.

Probably tomorrow for Gin and Tonics..but ya never know. I just got
tonic water when I was out. Would you believe I have never ever had a
G&T?

I just made some and I'm not seeing the attraction. What am I missing?
I've got about 2-3 cups of it and am now wondering what the heck to do
with it besides smear it on some party rye squares. Any suggestions?
Is it any good for grilled cheese sandwiches? Ham and cheese?
Chili-cheese dip? Help me out, Goomba!

Did you miss that post by Tara? She made a chicken casserole out of
it.

Ham and eggs.
A day's work for the chicken, a lifetime commitment for the pig.

Use it to stuff celery. I could eat pimento cheese and celery for
days. It's also spread on white bread for sandwiches. I prefer it
on celery or crackers -- something crunchy.

That was with bad pimento cheese! Good pimento cheese belongs stuffed
into celery.

Did you let it sit overnight? It's always best after it sits a good
long while.

(My ex-wife and I used to eat it on Fritos Scoops. She called it
White Trash Food, and I didn't argue with her.)

Especially if you stir in some minced fresh green jalapeños and let it
sit a while.
