Food Experts Say They Have Uncovered New Jersey’s Top Recipe
There must be thousands of recipes handed down through the generations that are cherished by tons of New Jersey families. And that's why this may be a little controversial.
How can you choose a single recipe as New Jersey's top one? Just about every family in the state has one or two they think should top the list. And, frankly, each family probably has a good case.
So, how does Taste of Home begin to decide which recipe is the state's best? Well, they start by keeping it pretty simple.
And they didn't make it about one specific recipe. They made it about a dish that is a favorite throughout the state and then celebrated the recipe that they think is the strongest for that dish. That's a good way to go about it.
Now the next question becomes which dish represents New Jersey the best. Is it lasagna, sausage, and peppers, or a fresh seafood meal? The answer is none of those. So, what is it?
They chose the Jersey Style Hot Dog. Ok, we're listening. That's a pretty good choice. Most New Jersey residents aren't in a bad mood when they're having one of those for lunch, right?
And Taste of Home provides a recipe from Suzanne Banfield of Basking Ridge, and it looks delicious.
So get ready to grill those potatoes and enjoy a little taste of New Jersey, and a Jersey Hot Dog!
