putting on the ritz

I love Ritz crackers- have ever since I was a little kid in joisey in the 60's and carol reed a weather lady on a ny staion advertised them- anyone remember her? Anyway those from ny - nj -conn have certainly at least heard of longtime WOR radio host Joan Hamburg's Ritz cracker stuffing http://www.recipegoldmine.com/dressing/joan-hamburgs-ritz-cracker-stuffing.html ( really worth trying) , there is no better cracker for chicken liver spread ,and just tonite I made a tasty baked cod with Ritz coating....was wondering how other folks put on the Ritz??

When I read this thread title, I pictured Peter Boyle singing in Young Frankenstein. And then: "Gooooood cracker. Good cracker."

My Aunt used to make a "mock apple pie" from a Ritz box recipe. First time we tried it we really thought it was an apple pie.

I've made that "mock apple pie". It was really good but wouldn't fool a real apple pie lover. Being on a gluten-free diet, Ritz crackers are one of the things I miss most, both in my cooking and with tomato soup, peanut butter, just butter, and many other ways :>(. (I have no idea why the italics)

Roasted vegetable Ritz with rolled anchovy fillets and capers or anchovy paste. And of course Ritz Crackers with peanut butter (Krema brand).

When I was a kid, I'd fold slices of Kraft cheese into quarters, and make "Big Macs".

A little trivia for all youze Ritz Lovers: National Biscuit Company (now Nabisco) introduced Ritz Crackers for 19 cents a box in November, 1934 in Philadelphia and Baltimore. They were an immediate success. The company produced over 5 billion of them in 1935, which worked out to 40 crackers for every man, woman and child in the U.S. They are still a best seller today. EDIT: (God only knows how many BILLIONS have been sold since)

Hey phishmonger, I, too, am a Ritz loving gluten free person. Try Glutino cheese crackers brushed with a tiny bit of melted butter and sprinkled with a little salt. It's not the same, but it's as close as I can get.

My parents used to use them as a breading for their Italian Chicken Cordon Bleu (mozz and salami inside), and I have a friend who mixes crushed Ritz, clams, and mayo to make a really good hot dip.

Ritz covered in crunchy peanut butter with a marshmallow on top. Stick it under the broiler (or toaster oven) until the tops of the marshmallows toast. Salty, sweet, gooey, crunchy goodness.
