This
New York City specialty seems to have extremely limited appeal
outside his home region, suggesting that it works best with those
whose palates have been numbed by living in the city that never
sleeps.
The carcass is surprisingly lean for one of Giuliani's
political bent; the terms stringy and tough (hardly a virtue in this
instance) spring to mind. While the specimen has shown some degree
of flexibility—or the inclination to flip-flop like a boated carp
destined for the lox factory—we have severe reservations about its
range of usefulness. It would seem that we are not the only ones.
This is a difficult meat to work with. The flavor seems
to have but one note, harsh and repetitive. At one point we might
have been of the opinion that various cuts might play well with
ethnic ingredients, but of late we believe that has become somewhat
problematic, especially with Mexican and Middle Eastern additions.
This creates a problem since we here at Celebrity Cooking Magazine
that Giuliani would be most acceptable where more exotic and vivid
flavors create the actual taste of the dish because otherwise it
would dominate in a strident, overbearing manner.
Giuliani seems to fall into that category of tastes
that have a certain devoted audience, but the larger population
finds unpalatable, even indigestible. We cannot recommend it for
fear Giuliani would declare war on our taste buds. One special
caution: an ingrained lack of commitment to things such as wives and
gun control causes us to have profound worries about the shelf life
of anything this ingredient was paired with.
1/2 Fork in NYC, 9/11ths outside.
Limited and outdated use as an appetizer; soups almost certain to
have taste of pepper spray; Big City dinner for those who think lox
is on doors.
Canapés for doomed nuptials; New York Minute Steak; Italian Wedding
Soup; 9/11 Rehash.
We cannot think of anything similar to Giuliani, and we are
obscurely relieved.
Seltzer; Manhattans; leftover Wedding Punch
Warnings:
Not for consumption by Lobotomy-fringe Conservatives or monogamous
couples; may be an export impossible to send back to place or
origin.
