Apropos to some of the music, I'm nibbling on a couple of mezze from Al Basha in Paterson NJ (the takeout location on Main St.) that I got yesterday that I'd never had before: bakdunsiah, defined as "parsley, tahina, and lemon zest", and turkiya, defined as "tomato paste, onions, chili". The first is OK, but the second is phenomenal! I wonder where you get such great tomato paste and what kind of edible crack they secretly put in it.

Hi, Rob! Hey, all! What’s the chorus borrowing from in the El Michels Affair song? Driving me nuts trying to figure!

Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 6:36pm
Ike:

I can't find many references to "turkiya" as a recipe online but maybe this is it: exploringtheturkishkitchen.com...
  6:38pm
tracy in LA:

this is really helping my Punjabi black eye peas along Rob :)
  6:46pm
headcleaner:

The edible crack probably comes from everything being reasonably fresh. Anything made with freshly roasted or stewed tomatoes generally blows store-bought tomato paste out of the water. I would guess "turkiya" just means "turkish".

Hola Rob. Suddenly recall Richard Fariña had a similar melody to this Delta one in the song: A Swallow Song.

For dinner I cooked for my fam some chicken cutlets with cayenne and peppers along with penne pasta in a homemade tomato sauce (canned crushed tomatoes) with fresh garlic and basil. And a chickpea veggie burger for me.
Avatar 6:53pm
Frank Zaatar:

@TDK60: As I'm sure Rob can tell you, it's an old Sephardic melody. My question is where Fariña heard it.

The news is absolutly totally propaganda, even obvious lies or a grain of truth for CYA purposes. Really amazing to watch.
We are in the midst of the largest (global) Phychops in human history. It can't hold-up forever even with the massive censorship.
