    The Man’s Spicy Dragon Wings

    2018-10-29 /

    No napkins necessary for this recipe. You will lick your fingers clean of all the deliciousness. These wings are perfect for scarfing while watching your favorite team. (In our case, they have become our good luck snack when we need a “W” in a contentious SEC game.) What are dragon wings, you may ask? They are The Man’s recipe for chicken wings coated with a fermented Korean red pepper paste called gochujang. And thanks to The Man, I am now an addict. Yep. There is something about gochujang that makes me crave it. Gochujang. I love to say it. It’s a piquant red pepper paste that will set your face…

    Blistered Olives

    2018-10-12 /

    I often catch The Man around here with his hand in the olive jar. He is wild about olives! If you ask him, he’ll tell you they are a gift from the gods. Many people might agree with him. Especially olive farmers. Olives are handled with such care that they are gently caught in nets to keep them off the ground. (If an olive touches the ground, it no longer qualifies for virgin olive oil.) While my favorite is oil-cured black olives, his love for the fruit has no bounds. We have about 10 jars in the fridge. No kidding. He is more than happy with a bowl of olives…

    Chunky Mediterranean Hummus

    2018-10-11 /

    This recipe is one of the reasons I am invited to parties. For years I thought it was my irresistible charm or my clever wit that was so alluring, but no.           “Hey, we’re having a get-together Friday. We hope you can come! Around 7PM?”           “Sounds great!”           “Oh, and can you bring your Chunky Mediterranean Hummus?” My hummus. That’s the caveat. But who can blame anyone for loving this dish? My recipe takes hummus, a Middle Eastern staple, and loads it up with Mediterranean goodness. Hummus is like a beautiful neutral palette that complements anything that…
