Boy things have changed, remember when you went out you needed to match your clutch and shoes or belt and jewelry. Celebrities took it a step further and added man’s best friend or more recently their friend as the accessory.
How does this relate to food, cooking and creativity? Here’s the segue…
So far it’s been all about the main course.
What happened to side dishes that were daring, beautiful, tasty or different?
(Ahhh, not great but you’ll get over it!)
Try different combinations of fruits and nuts, including, papaya, Asian pear, mango, lychee, peanuts, cashews or almonds. Try innovative seasonings, fresh herbs or exotic market vegetables like, jicama, edema me, adzuki beans, shitake, baby corn or bok choy. Spice your side with a curry or Cajun panache. What ever you decide let your palate explore new combinations and judge for yourself. You may end up not having a main at all!
