Honey Chicken Wings

I ripped this recipe out of a magazine (I'm not sure which magazine it was - BonApetit? Cooking Light? Some other one? When? Where? I do this all the time so I apologize for not giving credit, but I did change the ingredients up quite a bit.

Honey Chicken Wings (Adapted from ???)

2lbs chicken wings
2T olive oil
salt/pepper
2T toasted sesame oil
1/4 c rice wine vinegar
1/2 c honey
3T soy sauce
1t fresh ginger, grated

Preheat broiler. Cut wing tips off of chicken wings (save for stock). Place on foil lined baking sheet. Toss wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Place chicken under broiler for about 45 minutes tossing a few times until wings are almost done. While chicken is cooking, whisk remaining ingredients together. Brush wings with sauce and let slightly brown. Toss wings with remaining sauce and serve.

I don't really use my broiler to actually cook that often. Usually, I use it to just finish off dishes. I think this recipe has convinced me that I need to use it more often to cook. These wings came out as if they were grilled outside (except maybe without the smokey taste).

Citrus Shortcake

In my mind, this cake is sort of a blank slate. The cornmeal gives it a little crunch but it is quite versatile. I drizzled a citrus icing on it this time around. I think there are many other things that you could do. You could macerate some berries in sugar and top the cake with them. I think some heated jam (orange, strawberry, or raspberry) drizzled over would be nice. I scoop of ice cream never hurt anyone. A dollop of whip cream never did either. I think you get the idea. Citrus Shortcake (Adapted from Cooking Light circa 2010) 3/4 c sugar 1/4 cup butter 2 eggs 1 T orange rind, grated 2T fresh OJ 1/2 t vanilla 1 c flour 2T cornmeal 3/4 t baking powder 1/2 t baking soda 1/4 t salt 2/3 c buttermilk Grease a 9" square pan set aside.

Mensa Member?

I think Mickey is a member of Mensa. We heard him last night but could not determine where he was in the kitchen (or should I say the Sous Chef could not locate him - I certainly was not looking). He had been lurking in the toaster cabinet the night before and averted the glue trap. This is absolute torture. Still no cooking going on.

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...
