    Thai Sweet and Hot Garlic Dipping Sauce

    …Does writing two posts in a row with a sweet and spicy theme say something about me?

    In actuality, I do believe I can blame this one on you all, you sweet and spicy wildcats.  I did, after all, put it up for a vote on the Foodie With Family Facebook fan phage. (Yes, I know [...]

    Pique (Puerto Rican Style Hot Sauce)

    Spicy hot is how things are around here.

    From the weather to the produce to the activity level, everything packs major heat these days.

    My garden is in a bit of a lull at the moment since cucumbers are about done and tomatoes are just gearing up, but the jalapeño plants are ready to go, go, go.  My [...]

    Sweet Black Cherry Pie Filling

    I used to think I despised cherries.

    This was some high-heresy for a girl raised awfully close to ‘The Cherry Capital of the World’.*  Why I thought cherries were gross I can attribute to two reasons: A) I didn’t like the whole spit-the-pit thing.  I was a tidy child. B) The only way to eat cherries sans [...]

    Rum Soaked Preserved Cherries and Boozy Cherry Molasses

    Cherry season usually gets away from me.  It seems like I find out cherries are on about twelve hours before the end of the (what feels like a twenty four hour) season.  I usually manage to get one or two glorious pounds.  We dispatch of those quickly with a manic eating and pit spitting binge that [...]

    Q&A: Foodie With Family style.

    I’ve gone back and forth on whether to do this post for a while, so let me put it in reverse for a bit and explain.  A friend of mine suggested that I run a regular Question and Answer post here on Foodie With Family.  She also told me I was like a 100 year old [...]

    Candied Jalapenos (Cowboy Candy)

    This last week, my baby brother Luke told me admiringly that I had finally done it.

    “To which it do you refer?” I inquired.

    “IT!” said Luke.

    Luke was referring to this.

    This sandwich blew my mind. It was the perfect sandwich. I do not use the phrase ‘perfect sandwich’ lightly. It is a very serious appellation to [...]
