The Sueño cocktail, a brilliantly diverse drink that works for all seasons…cool and refreshing in the summer while comforting and evergreen during the cold winter months.
Currently I’m obsessed with the myriad ways to prepare wings - from the grill, traditional Buffalo style, or as sticky Korean bbq, just to name a few. And wings are the perfect vessel for frying chicken, especially when embellished with a sauce or glaze like the one I’ve devised with Blue Elephant Massamam Curry Paste; slightly sweet, spicy with a whisper of brown spice that ignites an edible paradigm shift from more traditional wings…and a saucy crunch that is nothing short of culinary nirvana.
One pot comfort is THIS quick, easy…and important.
It’s a busy week, everyone running in three different directions, so I need an edible ploy to help us all reset and spend some quality time together. This recipe will do the trick.
There are myriad health benefits to eating kimchi…traditional fermented cabbage known to help regulate the immune system, promote weight loss, fight inflammation, and even slow the aging process - but I love it because of the singular, spicy kick it gives to food. Somehow the juxtaposition of flavor and style that come from both the kimchi and BLUE ELEPHANT red curry paste creates something special, delicious in this fried rice. Oh, and putting an egg on anything just simply makes it better.
My friends can’t keep their hands off of my nuts….my cocktail nuts, that is. This is a great snack to serve with beer, wine, or cocktails; especially if hosting a football game party. The brown spice from the BLUE ELEPHANT MASSAMAM CURRY gives these traditional party nuts an added kick and depth of flavor that is equally surprising and delicious.
We’re using pecans, almonds, cashews, and pistachios; but feel free to substitute your favorite nut combinations…I’m also quite fond of peanuts, walnuts, and Macadamia nuts. Snack, snack - thump thump!
