Sticky Chicken Wings

Be prepared for a sticky pan that will have to be soaked overnight with this recipe! The poor Sous Chef...

See that baked on goo but oh so worth it

Sticky Chicken Wings (Adapted from Martha Stewart)

3/4 c packed brown sugar
1/4 c fish sauce
1/4 fresh lemon juice and zest
2 T soy sauce
1" piece of fresh ginger, grated
1t red pepper flakes
2 lbs chicken wings, cut at joint (tips saved for stock)

Whisk together ingredients until sugar is dissolved. Place chicken wings in a single layer in a 13x9 pan. Pour sauce over chicken toss to coat. Bake 1 hour at 300. Increase temperature to 450 and bake until sauce is reduced to a glaze (about 30-40 minutes). Turn chicken about every15 minutes to coat.

See how easy that was? OK the cleaning up part really wasn't that bad (especially since I didn't do it). Seriously let the dish soak overnight with a little baking soda.

New Kid on the Block

So here's a picture of the new kid on the block. Ain't she a beauty? It's a Blomberg . They are fairly new to the US. They have been around in Europe for quite a while. I really liked the design. I've been dying to have a freezer on the bottom. With the old refrigerator I would constantly lose brain cells by hitting my head on the freezer will poking around in the refrigerator. It really makes sense to have the refrigerator on top - that is where you spend most of your time. When we bought the old one, it was an emergency situation. The prior one was leaking on the floor and was no longer cooling. Fifteen years ago the freezer on the bottom was just starting to get popular but we were in no situation to wait for delivery. We had to take what they had on hand. Now the freezer on the bottom is by no means unique. What is - is this freezer's design. There are 3 compartments in the freezer. I used to have a chest freezer in the basement and everything would get los

Tomato Risotto

Want to build up those arm muscles. There is no better way than to do up a good risotto. You will get tired of stirring but it is oh so worth it. Tomato Risotto 1 onion, chopped olive oil 2 clove garlic, minced 1 1/2 c Aborio Rice 1/2 c white wine 4 medium-sized tomatoes, peeled about 1 cup warm vegetable stock (may need additional) 1 t fresh oregano 1 T fresh torn basil 2 T fresh parsley salt/pepper Parmesan cheese In a dutch oven, saute chopped onion in olive oil. Add a little salt to help the onions along. Meanwhile prep the tomatoes. Squeeze tomatoes gently just to rid them of the seeds. You do not need to get rid of all the liquid. Chop the tomatoes into large cubes. Cook onions until translucent. Add garlic and cook until fragrant. Add rice and saute for a few minutes until the rice smells toasted. Gradually add white wine and stir until almost all of the wine is absorbed. Add tomatoes to the rice. Add the oregano and basil. Stirring constantly until a

Go Gadget Go

Don't you just love a good gadget? I love one that is functional - usually with several functions as a matter of fact. I don't really like a one-trick pony type of gadgets. I like multi-taskers. Sometimes you have to settle for a one-trick pony and that's OK. Sorry I couldn't resist - the girls always loved Inspector gadget when they were young. I especially love the intro! My Mom's friend is moving and she's been clearing out her kitchen. She knows that I'm a big kitchen person so she gave me a bunch of things that she thought I might put to good use (Thanks Terri). She's given me some pretty nice things in the past too. She's given me some cake-decorating tools, some copper molds, cookie cutters, spritz cookie gun, etc. Here's what I got this time around: I'm excited about the two spatulas. The one is really flexible. I already have the mini spatula (from Pampered Chef ) and love it. Sometimes though when lifting things
