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...

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.

Nothing in the Larder

Well there's nothing left in the freezer except some peeps from Easter.  Shockingly they are good until 2016 - that's reassuring huh? This raises a few questions: Why do I keep peeps in the freezer? Well they are delicious frozen.  I don't know why I havent eaten them yet??? Why is the freezer empty? because we are getting a new refrigerator. This one is 15 years old and quite frankly it owes us nothing.  Every once it a while it lets out a big sigh. We figured we better replace it before it lets out one last final sigh. Why am I calling it the larder? Well I think of that Simpson's episodes where Moe calls Homer fancy for calling the garage a garage and not a car hole. I know it's not the same but it just makes me laugh and gives me an excuse to find that clip on youtube. So the delivery is set for the end of the week. We moved everything from the freezer to the downstairs freezer. The only thing that got thrown ou...
