A bit of an upgrade :) 😻😲
A bit of an upgrade :) 😻😲 Stepping out of my naughty teasing style for today (well I am going to try anyways). I was chatting with a friend and of course was giving unsolicited cooking advice ( I do have lucid non sex oriented conversations sometimes). So I thought I would share a couple spices that I think I could not cook without (salt and black pepper are always a staple). The list is not all inclusive, but is influenced by my time in Thailand and Puerto Rico. Have you ever used these? Do you have a favorite spice? It is amazing how these really upgrade various dishes Looking forward to your input and comments. OOPS already broke the non naughty promise Cilantro, almost parsley like, but has a very unique flavor. Great when chopped and added to vegetables, meat or chicken is delicious. When used in conjunction with lime is so good. Sazon,, Many different varieties, adds a great taste. I especially like it when used to make a yellow rice. Sofrito,, I am not sure what other cultures may use this, but I was introduced to it in Puerto Rico, is a mixture of onions, various peppers, garlic, cilantro and each house wife in Puerto Rico prides themselves on individual additional ingredients. If I do not have the ingredients, I purchase it ready made. Use it to spice up the rice,, meats, poultry etc. Limes,,, They are good for so many things. I use them on salads, over meat, fish and poultry. It is a great substitute for salt. I actually used to have small packets of it with me when I was in the field in the military as an alternative to hot sauce to make food palatable. If I can not get them fresh, I use the bottled variety. And of course onions and garlic for everything (almost) OK,, this is not an oops, it is a deliberate choice |

I like to use coconut, oranges, lime, lemon and cashews/peanuts to cook with. Happy Saturday! "Sweet, steamy, sensuous kisses light the bright fires of passionate lust within us." scott6250
