Tasty Tuesdays!

Aloha! So here I am w/ a new recipe! I talked to my brother Josh to see what I should post for today's recipe. Even thought this isn't one he suggested, I thought of him when I decided which one to use. He made something similar to this when he was visiting for holiday. So here it is, Finadene (Fin-a-den-knee). Finadene (also fina dene) is a salty, spicy, sour all-purpose condiment used in Chamorro cuisine. It is comprised of soy sauce, vinegar or lemon juice, chopped white onion, and fresh chilies. Adding oil and/or water to finadene makes it suitable as an all-purpose marinade. Also a different type of finadene is lemon finadene which substitutes the soy sauce with lemon juice and thus substituting lemon juice for vinegar. This was always at the table at my mother-in-law's in Guam. They like it HOT! So needless to say, I never tried it. But Q was in heaven! ;o) Hope you enjoy!I used Tracy Reed's FlavorFULL: Seagarita which you can find HERE or in the full collection HERE.
Until we meet again!
