Curry-ing Favors



While the city was on fire this weekend, I took the opportunity to get reacquainted with a couple of old friends: cumin and cayenne.

Some say it is counter-intuitive to eat spicy food while the weather's hot, but personally I love it. Sauce or solid, if it's spicy, I'm sold. Earlier last week, a secret admirer dropped off a few delightful coconut curry chocolate bars inspiring me to prepare my famous chicken tikka masala. Beyonce once begged me to pass along the recipe to her personal chef, but I absolutely refused as it's been in the family for years. (For you, dear readers, I'll let you in on a tip: I may or may not have used this secret sauce.)

I was also tipped off to this delicious Thai Curry Cheddar which made a scrumptious afternoon snack. Since Fall is upon us, it might not be a bad idea to change up the menu at CAVE to incorporate this in a samosa appetizer... Stay tuned!
