mustard wings

hello and hello!

welcome to the first installment of the new flood family food blog, a place for photos and words about stuff that comes out of our kitchen.

i call this the quitters guide to eating. adam and i made a baby in june and are getting ready to push it out in march. the last 33 weeks have left a lot of addictions behind and added healthy pounds to both of us. i recommend that everyone replace garbage in their lives with delicious, inspired, indulgent food. lots of it!

tonights dinner.

non-medicated chicken wings from famous foods market, marinated for two days in bc white wine, hot mustard, olive oil, salt and fresh ground pepper. these babies drank up almost the entire marinade, and went into the oven puffy and soft with flavour. i baked them for an hour or so at around 350 degrees. didn't have to flip them. took them out when they gained a crispy red crust. let those sweeties cool for 30 mins.

made a tomato, cucumber, sunflower seed, cracked black pepper salad. lemon juice, grape-seed oil (i'm out of our $30 a bottle olive oil), apple cider vinegar and salt.

toasted up those cool wings in the warm oven, then tossed them in a sauce of one part honey to three parts dijon mustard, and black pepper, cornstarch, salt to taste.

plated. ate-ed.

now off to the hidden jazz venue 1067 to see adams band Yellowthief play.

peace!
