Round 13 of TGRWT is Chocolate and Caraway. For various reasons, including the fact that I had recently made Chili, I thought that a Caraway Cocoa Chili would be an interesting.
Every step of the dish was on the precipice of disaster. I thought that there was way too much caraway, so I compensated with [...]
I may have to do this one. While reading what Erik at Fooducation wrote about the Food Timeline, I noticed that he is posting this month’s They Go Really Well Together (TGRWT). TGRWT, as you may remember, is a food pairing competition. You take two ingredients that generally are not classically paired but should go [...]

Mind you, that’s more because of their poor coffee than the concept of the mocha, but I can think of [...]
I feel kind of guilty writing this, but I fear that I must spread the word: chocolate chunks in ice cream is a bad idea. I know, I’ve just lost half of my readership, but bear with me. I’m not suggesting that chocolate is in any way bad, as chocolate is clearly one of the [...]
