In a recent trip through the Florida Everglades, explorers were shocked to find Gators using Food Rubs to spice up their fish dishes.
Fish was so boring until I discovered Food Rubs
The expedition leader expressed surprise, saying. ‘I know you can only get these Rubs online, and I had no idea Gators could use the internet!’
Where’s the mouse? Oh, forgot, I ate it!
Gary the gator said, ‘Ordering on line was a breeze, excellent website and speedy delivery, however, learning how to open the tin was another matter – but we got there in the end.
So these days, whenever we fancy a quick bite, it’s out with the Rub – delicious!’ Gary Gator added; ‘If The Food Rub Co decide to produce Man Rubs in the future, we’ll definitely snap them up!’
We got a great tip from a customer today – try adding a little Food Rub to some mayonnaise. He was tweeting whilst eating some chicken with ‘Mexican mayo’!
It got me thinking about tonight’s dinner:
1 x meaty fish steak (tuna, swordfish…)
1 x ciabatta, sliced and lightly toasted
1 x thick smear of mayonnaise mixed with Fish rub
1 x generous sprinkling of rocket
A Gourmet Open Fish Butty!
Stuck for ideas for what to do with your Food Rubs tonight?
We have just produced our first recipe book featuring all our favourite Food Rubs recipes, plus some cooking hints and tips. What’s more, our recipe book is free when you buy a gift pack or one of our aprons!
There really is no need to feel bored in the kitchen any more with so many ideas to spice things up!
On a lovely summers day, when you don’t quite fancy getting the barbeque out but you want something nice, refreshing, tasty and filling, why not try this little dish, which although simple, is bursting with flavour and texture!
After spraying your frying pan with oil and heating, take the Spice Rub of your choice (I chose Steak Rub), and sprinkle onto cubes of halloumi cheese. You can massage it into the cheese with your fingers.
Add the cubes to a hot pan and fry, tossing regularly, until golden and the kitchen is smelling wonderful.
This can be served with a fruity couscous with roasted vegetables and raisins, or it can be served with ripe avocado (which is a lovely, soft, mellow flavour and texture next to the spicy, saltiness of the halloumi), tomato, spring onion, cucumber, beetroot and salad. And for a nutty crunch, add some toasted pine nuts to finish.
Any of the rubs can be used in this recipe so why not try the Cajun Rub or the Italian Herb Rub….
