Kitchen challenge!!!
So phase I of my spring cleaning commenced this morning. I went through my cupboards and threw old stuff away, wiped down surfaces, and catalogued what remained. I thought I'd issue a kitchen challenge.
What interesting, innovative, or just reeeaaaally really good recipes might you have for what remains?
Take it as read that I either have or have access to any spices. Ordinary ones like bay leaves, cumin, garlic powder and oregano as well as more obscure things such as curry leaves, amchur powder, wasabi and blackened seasoning. Also assume I have the necessary kitchen equipment (except for a Kitchen Aid). I have a crock pot, pressure cooker, bread machine, hand mixer, george foreman grill, cuisinart, wok, and a couple other things.
Ok, ready? Here's the list:
