Baltimore is not known as a food capital. Its culinary offerings fail to rank with those of Paris, Rome, and London. However, there is one delight unique to Charm City (Baltimore), the Berger.

Salty, dried, powdered vegetables. Appealing though this may sound, a mere semantic description can’t do justice to the unbelievable niftiness of Vegeta. It is with burbles of happy joy that I report you can now find this traditional Croatian seasoning at the Wegmans in Sterling, out by Dulles.
Stick this stuff on pretty much anything. Rub it on chickens before roasting them. Pour it on vegetables. Mix it with salad dressing when you feel lazy. Toss it on popcorn. Toss it on your friends. Here’s a fast recipe for Vegeta chicken wings:- Wash the wings, trim off the thin wingtip piece, and cut the drumette and the wing into two pieces
- DRY thoroughly with paper towels, I really mean it.
- Mix say, half a cup of mayo with a couple tablespoons of Vegeta till the mayo is bright yellow, then mix thoroughly with the chicken until well coated
- Put chicken on a grill pan that has been covered with aluminum oifl,, broil for 5-8 minutes on either side.
For us metro-only types, it’s also available online at Malincho.com

Ode to eight Ikea Swedish meatballs sitting on a well-priced-yet-trendy-looking trayOh savory balls of meat from Ikea
I’d climb metric shelving-units to see ya

To reach your lingonberries and gravy
and the cinnamon buns of your cafeter-ia.
