It...The raw sugar I really notice a difference on. It's different than brown sugar, but has that same sort of caramelization. A box of it lasts me a good long time because I don't use it on very many things, but the things I do use it for make it worth it. It's awesome on pie crusts.<br /><br />Kosher salt? I've just gotten used to it. I like the bigger crystals, and the flavor is different. We'll probably all die from thyroid problems due to a lack of iodized salt...oh well. I have a salt grinder that turns it into lovely little flakes and tidbits.<br /><br />And Amber, I'm quite pleased that I can complete your life ;). I've been trying to keep up with one post per week, but sometimes even that is too much.Nurse Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05701919857269926765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7681171754856549448.post-63266992912479016832009-09-04T11:49:32.205-06:002009-09-04T11:49:32.205-06:00Wow!!!

It doesn't make it super sweet, just enough, and it also seals in the juices nicely. For fajitas I'll use honey/lime over the top of the dry seasonings - it helps them stick on nicely.Nurse Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05701919857269926765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7681171754856549448.post-25317640562740977952009-09-02T22:32:26.987-06:002009-09-02T22:32:26.987-06:00How did I miss that you have a food blog?

I never would have though of the vinegar/honey mixture for the chicken but sounds deliciously perfect!<br /><br />And....by the way.....PLEASE come borrow my food processor next time you make pesto. The thought of you spending 45 minutes blending that makes me feel bad. Please, please run over here next time. Or I'll even bring it to you!The Grant Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01256086841266654143noreply@blogger.com
