Continuing my experimentation with hot dried chiles (this kind), just now I made some popcorn with torn-up chiles. I fried the dried chiles in a bit of oil just before putting the popcorn in the pan, then put a splatter screen over it and let it all pop. The flavor isn't quite there yet, but the popcorn was uniformly spicy. I'll keep experimenting with this. Eventually I want to get it just right so I can eat the crunchy fried chile pieces along with the popcorn.

I really miss the hot and spicey foods.
Your popcorn reminds of the flamin hot popcorn Frito Lay has/had or even Jay's Potato Chip Company Popcorn hot style.

Burger King does sound good right now along with some no or low salt fries as long as they don't check my labs the next day. >:(

Been craving braised pork all week. On Friday I'll finally have money to buy food, so maybe that'll be on my list. I wonder what else I should get. Maybe the makings for Kung Pao chicken?

I'm still on my spicy food kick, so today I made chili-lime peanuts. I'm still experimenting a lot, so I don't know the best way to do it, but here's how I did it today: boil some raw Spanish peanuts (out of their shells) in salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and dry them, then cook some smashed garlic cloves on low heat in a pan with some olive oil, until the garlic has given up its flavor to the oil. Take the garlic out, turn the heat up to medium-low, then put in some torn up dried chiles, and stir them around until the oil starts to pick up the chile flavor or the chile pieces start to darken.

Add the peanuts and stir them pretty constantly while they cook. They should be done in 10-15 minutes. About 3 minutes before they're done, squeeze some lime juice in the pan (about half a lime for a large handful of peanuts) and stir them until they're coated and the lime juice has fully evaporated. Then grind on some black pepper and sprinkle on some salt to your liking.

Once they're done, drain the peanuts in a strainer or on paper towels. Before they cool too much, taste one and see how spicy they are. Add cayenne pepper powder to your liking, along with paprika to make them look good.

Just a warning: open a window or turn on the vent fan in the kitchen. The last few minutes of cooking, with the chiles in there, tend to throw off a lot of pepper gas. Don't add the cayenne before you take the peanuts out of the pan, like I did, or you'll be coughing and running for tissues. At least my sinuses are clear now.  :urcrazy;

Feel free to eat the fried chile pieces, too. If you can stand the heat (depending on the type of chile you use), they taste really good.

I'm still craving hot sauce, so tonight I'm dipping carrot sticks in the very hot El Yucateco sauce I've been enjoying. I think my tolerance is increasing... I might have to switch to something stronger, something with a curse word in the name.  :2thumbsup;

I have been craving Caprese sandwiches - it's practically all I've been eating for weeks. My husband makes ciabatta fresh every other day or so. We use the bread maker to make the dough, and then bake it in the oven. Then I slice it lengthwise and pile on the basil, buffalo mozzarella, and tomato. A little mayo or olive oil, and of course balsamic, to top it off.

I'm having it again for lunch. Why couldn't I have had this craving over summer, when we were overrun with basil?
