Here I found Two slightly different methods about how to prepare it in Home ...

Whenever I go to the Asian market I try to get some bananas from Thailand.
They are short 'finger size' and have a thin skin. Typically, it's best to keep them in plastic and wait for the skin to split to indicate they are ripe.
Last night I see the local Publix grocery has finger bananas from Colombia that look like dwarfed bananas of the variety normally sold here that sell anywhere between 65 cents to 80 cents per pound. When fully ripened, the Manzanos are sweeter than normal bananas but cost prohibitive at $2 a pound.




The ones in the store are slightly distress and look nothing like the ones on Chiquita's website.

I know what I like and don't like when it comes to foods. With limits, I'll try new things from time to time. It was time to buy another package of Italian bread crumbs and Panko style came into my radar.
Without a doubt, organic chicken breasts dipped in eggs and rolled in Panko then pan fried was 'totally awesome man'




Unlike the photo, it's best to cut the chicken into thin strips so the Panko covers every piece!

I never really knew what it was meant to be a foodie, rarely heard it when I was working but retiring changed the game. Until Mic mentioned one of my foodie blogs did I realize I was a foodie, a small shock to the system but now I brag about it. What I don't mention is a I'm a lousy foodie but I love it anyways.

Since retirement I've experimented on many new recipes and unknown foods to me. My most recent find is BACON JAM. When I learned to make candied pecans it was like a crack addiction to me so I have to exercise discipline, it's harsh but I do it.

Bacon Jam is like a crack addiction on steroids. I'm not going into anymore detail, google or better yet you tube it for recipes or info (I only look at healthy ones)

For Mic's sake and all his pizza talk I gave in last night and made a cauliflower crust, loaded the toppings I love and shocked myself at how tasty it was. I might try and make that again next year or if I make another I am going to use sliced tomatoes instead of the sauce with fresh mozzarella glopped on. Oh Mic my San Marzano plants are showing off their little babies, so far so good. The cherry tomatoe from 3rd generation of growing itself yielded a nice yield then died.

Cheese sauce has been my nemisis - Twice I tried a recipe using Sodium Citrate. In the video the sauce comes out smooth like a pouring nacho cheese sauce. Mine comes out in a glump, a tasty glump mind you but extremely unappealing visually. I stuffed a glop inside a burger and it was delish! I'm not touching that Sodium Citrate again.

That's it folks - Bacon Jam is my new thing and it spicy hot so quite a few friends can't handle it but my bro will kiss my a** for some.

As I watched the video, I wasn't sure what the end result was going to be. It appeared to be the consistency of salt water taffy, then as they worked it and the candy cooled it was brittle as though they were working with glass.
Al that work is revealed in the last minute of the video.

I'm in rotation to work every third Saturday but this weekend, I had a client meeting on a jobsite and our draftsman took a few personal days off so I did some my own drawings.
Getting back home during daylight hours is a plus!

More trucks in the roadway as they continued to do a repair on the water mains that haunted the community this week.

In September, I did a blog about my experiments in baking... it was a big cornbread pastry with guava and cream cheese in the middle. The ingredients were fine, it's the way I ran a heavy layer of filling that made the loaf fall apart.

Not to have another failure, I bought a cupcake tray and a package of paper liners. My energy level is up... I'm psyched into making some cornbread guava and cream cheese cupcakes, mini version this time and I'll stir up batter (and not political trouble) to improve the success of this baking experiment.



I don't want THIS to happen again:

I bought some chicken wings last Saturday, because the packing said "extra spicy"..

I made some for dinner tonight, and I was excited. "Extra spicy wings for dinner? On a WEDNESDAY, of all days? Yes. Please!"

So I shoved them in the oven, setting the time for 35 minutes. The bag said 30 minutes at 180 degrees", but I always give my food a bit extra, just to make sure the food is done. The smell of spicy wings were all over the house! So good! It made me very excited for the food!

I grabbed my oven gloves and took the wings out of the oven. They looked amazing! Lots of sauce on them, which is absolutely key for getting that SPICY kick.. I then took a bite out of one wing, and.. Well.. let's just say I have had more spicy chips than this..

"Mate, what is THIS..?" I asked myself.. "These wings aren't spicy at all.. Pff.."

I don't want my "extra spicy" hot wings to go down easy. I want to sweat. I want to squirm in pain.. I want to feel EVERY. SINGLE. BITE on my tongue..

But no.. They didn't even manage to do that..

Extra spicy? More like extra weak..
