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).

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...
