Kitchen Witch
Late night marshmallow making definitely makes me feel like a kitchen witch.
Grilled brats for dinner tonight, and I was looking at what typical toppings are, and caramelized onions with some crushed red pepper is common, and you know what seeni sambol is? Basically spicy caramelized onions. I mean, with added flavor, but I thought it’d go great with brats, and y’know what? It does. I feel
I promised y’all an elderflower cocktail & mocktail, didn’t I?
