Mother, MOTHER...?

If you have a family, you have family recipes (that's right, I'm excluding you, Bambi). Passed down from generation to generation, these recipes are pretty much as old as rocks...and taste about the same. On Valley Road, we seek to take the cafeteria-tray dishes you've made countless times before and give them flavor of a magnitude that your tongues couldn't possibly repel. So if your granny-casserole dinners and vanilla-icecream desserts need a punch in the nuts, simply send us your ideas to valleyroadchefs@gmail.com and if it is good enough (or sucks enough) then we'll post our take.

  1. I'm not a fan of granny-anythings getting nut punches ;-)

    Here's one for you:
    Taryaki(sp?) Burgers:
    take pineapple (the round kind with the little hole in the middle) and marinate it in taryaki and spices (doesn't matter what kind) for about 2 hours. Make burger patties and marinate them in taryaki and spices for about 20-45 minutes. Put the pineapple on the burger and put the burger, pineapple-side down, on the grill. Cook, flipping once, until done to your liking.


    Mix Mayo with wasabi paste (I do almost 1-1 portions, but use more mayo if you like your sinuses). Add about a tablespoon of soy sauce for each cup of sauce. Eat the pineapple burger with the sauce on a bun.
