Epiphanies in the Spice Aisle

Apr 30, 2008 07:20

I recently finished the load of mixed peppercorns in my pepper mill and bought some black peppercorns, which I prefer, to refill it. While I was at Cub, I also looked for green peppercorns; they're delicious, and I want to play with them more than I've been able. I found some, but Cub's price was 18 times that of the black. I might have to resort to some internet vendor.

Last night, while checking Rainbow (which had none), I saw a jar of poppyseeds, which are small and black, just like the "tapioca seeds" I dreamt were ground to make the sweet, tasty bread that I'd heard rumored was made with morphine, which comes from poppies.

I'm tempted to buy some seeds and see if that was the flavor I craved when I woke.

dream, cooking, real life
