2010-09-02 Melange of spices and traditions make Mauritius food truly amazing - The Economic Times

I know my passion for food can sometimes go too far, but whats passion without excess As a foodie I was visiting the Island expecting to explore a myriad of fish and seafood dishes, exotic spicy recipes with interesting tropical ingredients. Instead I discovered that each wave of immigration brought with it a typical cuisine.

The central market was impressive, with fresh fruits, vegetables, spices, meat and fish, all at very reasonable prices. Lunch was the Indian-inspired Dholl poori, basically a thin yellow lentil pancake, something like the Gujarati puran poli, only here the stuffing was dal instead of the sweet jaggery. This was served with spicy chutney and a broad bean curry.

We managed to re-create that experience pretty well for our kids, with a bit less beach time. Food was not the focus of the trip, so we kept meals simple until the last night, when I wanted to cook something that celebrated summer, no matter what.

We started with Spicy Shrimp as an appetizer. Four perfectly grilled jumbo shrimp sat in a spicy pool of Cafe Piccolos signature Nam Prik sauce. They were arranged around a ramekin of tzatziki dipping sauce. The shrimp were spicy, but not too spicy, and the sauce perfectly complemented the complex flavor of the sauce and shrimp.

2010-08-25 Barbecue sauces: Make them your own

I started doing it about 20 years ago, and by this point I make sauces for different foods and different moods. I might want a mildly spicy tomato-based sauce on my chicken one day, a mustard-based sauce another. Some years ago, I made a multi-course fruit-based barbecue dinner for a friend to showcase the bounty of the season, and I made sauces from smoked peaches and blueberries and other fruits, along with a variety of chili peppers as flavorings.

2010-08-20 Spiciest Food In Los Angeles: Hot And Spicy Food Day

Let us, at least in a food setting, distinguish between "spicy" and "hot". Cumin is spicy, but it is not hot. Cayenne is hot but not particularly spicy. We in the industry refer to cayenne as "clean heat". Customers always ask if my spice blends are spicy. All of my spice blends are spicy not all are hot. I know even the word hot can be confusing in a food context. Maybe we need more descriptive words. Anyone got the OED handy

You can get just about anything from Ramune (Japanese soda) to Hello Kitty pencils, considering its somewhat of an Asian Mini Mall. Its a grocery store at its core and a cheap one at that, since you can get authentic Korean and Japanese food for usd. 6 and under. But it also sells non-grocery items, such as electronics and gifts. Plus, with little delis set up in the marketplace, you can have a casual meal without leaving. Most of the writing around the store is in Korean, so it can be intimidating if youre not fluent in the language; however, it is definitely worth paying a visit.
