I Like It Hot
Apr. 29th, 2011 08:13 pmFact #1: Chile sauce (/paste/oil/powder/fresh chiles/whateverIlikechileokay?) is my most favorite of all kitchen condiments. I put it in everything. I am damned well determined to get through this entire bottle of sriracha by the end of term, and the way I'm going so far it just might happen. Because everything is better when it's hot.
Fact #2: I might have overdone it tonight. I feel like my face is going to melt off. It was totally worth it though. As it always is. And so you all can share in my chile-related suffering, here are some recipes! The recipe for wings is slightly modified from a recipe from Stonewall Kitchen Favorites; the recipe for fries is a basic technique I've picked up from the internet, along with whatever I felt like throwing into the bowl. Both make one generous serving for me. And since our smoke alarm goes off at the drop of a hat and I don't like cooking with hot oil, they are both oven-friendly. Enjoy!
( Not as good as my dad's wings, but getting there )
Soooo much cleaning to do tonight. My aunt is coming by tomorrow, and I don't want her to see my apartment how it usually looks, aka a complete mess. Luckily I did some big chores last week (scrubbing out the tub, clearing off the living room table) and I am for once mostly on top of the dishes (and roommate hasn't even left a mess this week, amazing), but I still have to do all my laundry and wash the dishes from tonight and mop the floor. Bah! I just want to stay in and watch tv (still haven't seen Doctor Who, too much stuff going on this week), but alas, it's not in the program.
