Spicy Oven-Roasted Plums
Several years ago, I was looking for a recipe to take advantage of our bumper crop of plums and came across a recipe for roasted plums. After tweaking it a bit, I have developed a very versatile version that my family and friends love. Season with ground white pepper and use it as a side dish for pork or chicken. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and spoon it over vanilla bean ice cream, angel food, or pound cake for dessert! Play around with the spice combination by adding cloves, allspice, or cayenne. Be adventurous!
Chipotle Pork Naanwich
I created this while trying to use up leftovers. It is made with pork cutlets, but any meat would be good. Use any toppings you would like.
Masala Chai
This chai is hot and flavorful thanks to its use of cardamom, clove, and peppercorn — gotta love it!
