As you probably know by now, I’m obsessed with Sriracha anything but especially Sriracha salt. The great news is you can make your own at home! Ingredients: 1/2 C kosher salt 5 tsp Sriracha Method: Mix salt and Sriracha until completely combined. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spread the Sriracha salt out thinly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Put the baking sheet in the oven and turn off the heat immediately. Allow the salt to sit in the residual heat until completely dry. The drying time can vary greatly but it usually ranges from 2 to 3 hours. Store in air tight container. ETC.

Last week was filled with parties and good food, friends and dancing. It was non-stop action and I loved every minute. But when I look back on my favorite moment, it was a quiet conversation with Linda. We’ve met a few times and as we chatted she told me that I had changed her 90 year old mothers life. Shocked, I asked how. Linda’s mother is blind due to Macular Degeneration and Diabetes. She lives alone and still cooks for herself, amazingly. Her favorite food in the entire world is poached eggs. Once she became blind, she could no longer boil water in order to make her favorite eggs. The moment Linda read my post on poached eggs done in the microwave she called her mom, who lives out of state, and told her about this discovery. Every day since, this dear woman has been able to cook her favorite food again and enjoy this simple but special treat. It’s stories like this that touch my heart and make me grateful for tender mercies. Happy Sunday!
