You will need to marinate the vegetables overnight before covering them with the hot vinegar the next day, and then the vinegar will need to cool. The chowchow can be served then, but it’s even better chilled. It sounds funny to serve beans on beans, but a big tablespoonful of this on top of a bowl of soup beans served with cornbread is a pure delight.
Ingredients
This Yemenite sauce is fresh and bright from herbs, while also having an intensely spicy kick to it. It's the ideal accompaniment for falafel or sabich sandwiches, but it also goes great with a variety of grilled vegetables, fish, meat, and eggs. And it should last a few weeks in the fridge (though I've never had a jar linger long enough to actually find out).
Because Coconut Bacon will become less crisp the longer you store it, I recommend making it just ahead of preparing your sandwiches.
Kebabs
Francis originally published this recipe in a post for Salon. As with his recipe for Ginger Scallion Sauce, his exuberant and unusual approach to recipe writing makes it sing. As does the accompanying video.
The word “chaufa” is derived from the Chinese and means “eating rice.” This is Chinese-style fried rice with a Peruvian twist.
For a sweet breakfast treat, homemade almond milk mixes with espresso for a morning boost.
This vegan quiche is gorgeous and full of summery tomato-basil-olive flavor.
Use this sauce anywhere you need firepower, literally.
