Excerpt:

This hot chocolate recipe incorporates some of the flavors of the Caribbean, explains Marcus Samuelsson. He starts by adding coconut milk and whole milk to a pan (use 2 parts regular milk to 1 part coconut milk). He sets the pan over low heat to warm, then gathers his flavorings: the seeds of a whole vanilla bean, a cinnamon stick, fresh nutmeg (this spice is found all over the Caribbean), and chopped Mexican chocolate. Once the milk is hot, he adds these, along with brown sugar, and whisks until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth.

Excerpt:

Ingredients

•  
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup organic honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (organic, gluten free)
  • 3 organic garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
  • 12 organic chicken drumsticks (I prefer chicken breasts)
  • 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds
  • Cilantro sprigs for garnish

 

Directions

Mix the hoisin sauce honey soy sauce garlic and ginger in a large bowl to blend. Set the marinade aside. Using a sharp knife score the chicken all over. Add the chicken to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour but preferably overnight.

Position your oven rack 8 to 10 inches from the heating source and preheat the broiler. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with heavy-duty foil. Transfer the chicken and marinade to the baking sheet and broil for 15 minutes turning often and watching closely or until the chicken is cooked through and the marinade glazes the chicken.

Transfer the chicken to plates. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve.

Linda’s comment:  Every time I talk about being gluten free, I feel the groans and moans coming through my computer.  For those with a sweet tooth this recipe is yummmmmy.  It is not always possible to buy organic, but when you can DO IT!!  I will find from pasta gluten free recipes to try.  Many I have made myself, but I will search the Internet and see what is out there.  You can also google gluten-free recipes and if you find a good one send it to me and I will post it.
