Spicy Miso Chicken

By


First a thank you. When my friend Belle told me that she'd bring me a bottle of her homemade hot sauce, I had no idea how amazing it was. It's deliciously hot, but with an incredible amount of flavor along with that heat.

Friends came over after we chopped down our Christmas trees and they were pouring it on everything from cheese - making their own Pepper Jack - to gingerbread. Okay, that was a little odd.

But I have been using it in a spicy miso marinade that sings. I've made this three times this week!

Ingredients serves 6

  • 6 bone-in chicken thighs
  • 1 T yellow miso paste
  • 1 T hot sauce (I used Belle's homemade hot sauce)
  • 1 T soy sauce
  • 2 T olive oil
  • juice from 1 organic lemon

Procedure
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Place the chicken in a baking dish so that they lay flat without overlapping. Whisk the remaining ingredients together in a mixing bowl. Pour the sauce over the chicken, spreading it with your fingers to make sure the chicken is well coated.

Bake uncovered for 55 minutes, or until the thighs are well browned and cooked through. Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.


Thanks, Belle, for the sauce. It's beyond delicious!

Hot Chocolate Agasajo-Style {Spice It Up!}

By
photo by D For my Spice It Up! kiddos this week, I was looking for an exotic drink to serve while we learned about saffron. I found a recipe from food historian Maricel Presilla that mimicked traditional Spanish hot chocolate from the 17th century where it was served at lavish receptions called agasajos . When I teach, I don't always get to shoot photos. Thankfully, D grabbed my camera and snapped a few.

Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Quick Pickled Red Onions and Radishes

By
If you've been reading my blog for even a short amount of time, you probably know how much I love to pickle things. I was just telling a friend you can pickle - with vinegar - or you can ferment - with salt - for similar delicious effect. The latter has digestive benefits and I love to do that, but when I need that pop of sour flavor quickly, I whip up quick pickles that are ready in as little as a day or two. I've Pickled Blueberries , Pickled Asparagus , Pickled Cranberries , Pickled Pumpkin , and even Pickled Chard Stems ! This I did last night for an upcoming recipe challenge that requires I include radishes. Ummmm...of course I'm pickling them! Ingredients  makes 1 quart jar radishes, trimmed and sliced organic red onions, peeled and thinly sliced (I used a mandolin slicer) 3/4 C vinegar (I used white distilled vinegar) 3/4 C water 3 T organic granulated sugar 1 T salt (I used some grey sea salt) 6 to 8 grinds of black pepper Proce...
