Pickled Peppers for #FoodieExtravaganza

By

Foodie Extravaganza is where we celebrate obscure food holidays or cook and bake together with the same ingredient or theme each month. This month - I am hosting - I invited bloggers to come up with pickles since National Pickle Day is November 14th.

We hope you all enjoy our delicious pickled creations this month and come back to see what we bring for you next month.

Posting day is always the first Wednesday of each month. If you are a blogger and would like to join our group and blog along with us, come join our Facebook page Foodie Extravaganza. We would love to have you! If you're a spectator looking for delicious tid-bits check out our Foodie Extravaganza Pinterest Board! Looking for our previous parties? Check them out HERE.

The Pickled Posts...in alphabetical order of recipe title

Ingredients makes 2 large jars
  • 4 bay leaves
  • 1/2 t pink peppercorns
  • a variety of peppers (I used peppers from our High Ground Organics CSA box and jalapeno peppers from my friend's garden)
  • 3 C cold water
  • 1-1/2 C vinegar (I used an unfiltered apple cider vinegar)
  • 1 C organic granulated sugar
  • 1 T salt (I used large flake red Hawaiian salt)
  • 6 garlic cloves

Procedure
Chop the jalapeno peppers into pieces. I used the other peppers whole. Divide the bay leaves and pink peppercorns between your jars. Then layer in the peppers and garlic cloves. Press everything firmly into the jar.

In a medium saucepan, stir together the water, vinegar, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Remove from the heat.

Pour the vinegar mixture into the jars. Cover and let stand for at least 24 hours before opening. The pickles will keep, refrigerated, for up to two weeks.

    For some reason I had mine scheduled to post on the 7th. I fixed it and it is live now. Not sure what happened. Thanks for hosting Cam.

    So do you use pickled peppers as a snack, on sandwiches / salads, pizza, etc. I really want to branch out a little and get more comfortable with pickling and peppers but what's the best way to use them?! These look amazing.

    We love pickled peppers at our house but I've never considered making my own. That must change! Thanks so much for hosting this month, Camilla!

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. Ingredients serves 14-16 1 gallon organic whole milk 3 T dried rosebuds - or 2 t rosewater 2 t saffron threads, lightly crushed 3 T ground cinnamon 3 whole tepin chiles, crushed 2 vanilla beans, split lengthwise 1 C organic granulated sugar 1 lb. bittersweet chocolate Procedure In a large soup pot that can hold a gallon plus, combine milk, dried rosebuds (or rosewater, if you are using that), saffron threads, ground cinnamon, chiles, vanilla beans, and sugar and warm over medium heat till it steams. Whisk to dissolve sugar, then lower heat an...

Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream

By
As we headed inland from the coast, I cringed as the temperature gauge in the car for outside temp climbed into the triple digits. Ugh. I'm a rather wimpy central coastal Californian who begins to wilt when it's 70 degrees outside. Thank goodness for air conditioning and a planned ice cream stop. When I parked the car outside Frozen Art Gourmet Ice Cream in Santa Rosa, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. We knew that we still had to get to the campsite...and set up our tents in the heat. But we were going to enjoy the cool, sweet treats from Frozen Art first! Michoacana ice creameries are the equivalent of Starbucks in Mexico; they're ubiquitous. Purists, however, claim that operating a true Michoacana ice cream shop require ties to Tocumbo. It's estimated that almost ninety percent of the Tocumban population is currently employed in the ice cream business from making ice cream itself to making equipment. But the real art of Tocumban ice creams: imaginat...
