Great food porn, thanks for posting this Alex. I am also a black salt fan. It is a secret ingredient for western cooking that is unique and delicious. I am not such a fan of the expensive designer salts. They are just salt and dirt! I guess we could try to use dirt and some of it might be good. I just don't need any in my salt.
I wanted to thank you for turning me on to red palm oil. You were the first person I heard about it from. I just got some from Trader Joes and it is delicious. I have been using it for grilled cheese sandwiches and it adds something great. I like coconut oil for sweet things only. But this seems to be more versatile. Although you may despise poetry when it is presented as such you seem to have affinity for that language form when you discuss internal states. Figurative language has its uses outside the context of poetry. Now if I could only convert all the wanna be rappers in my inner city schools to buy into this POV! ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote : Brussels sprouts and yellow bell pepper, sauteed in coconut oil with coarsely chopped fresh ginger. Then I added diced chicken thigh and dried sour cherries and cooked until chicken was done but still tender. I didn't add enough salt during cooking (Real Salt from Redmond Utah), so I sprinkled on some Indian black salt and a touch of a dried hot pepper mix called Volcano Dust 2. I love black salt; Petra hates it, so I'm only allowed to use it in my room because any room it's used in stinks like rotten eggs. I just lit a stick of incense, and I'll let it burn for a few minutes before putting it out. Speaking of Petra, we've been married 27 years, and yesterday, while sitting around the gas fireplace in the living room, we both learned something about each other that neither of us knew before: both of us absolutely despise poetry.
