Chirashi Sushi Mix (ちらし寿司の素) is a commercial mix for chirashi sushi or scattered sushi, a deconstructed loaded sushi rice dish. Chirashi sushi is eaten on special occasions and Girls’ Day/Hinamatsuri (March 3rd). What Is Chirashi Sushi Mix While you can prepare sushi rice from scratch for chirashi sushi, you can also rely on commercial mixes for instant chirashi sushi.

Remember when I made the most delicious French toast ever with angel food cake and the most delicious from scratch churros? Well, I combined the ease of the Angel Food Cake French Toast with all the churro goodness to give you Churro Bites! When I made the Angel Food Cake French Toast, had halved that recipe so I could use the other half of the angel food cake for these churro bites....

Use your hands to blend the salt and lemon and lime zest in a mixing bowl before dehydrating. The oils in your hand help mix them together. Don’t get me wrong, it is certainly WORTH IT to have a good citrus salt around the house. We use it all the time, in either recipes or as an flavor-boosting finisher for so many things, but to be honest, making it at home is SO EASY, I’ll never buy citrus salt from the store again....

Easy Chicken Pozole Rojo If you enjoy a good stew recipe, or a soup with lots of chunky chicken, then Mexican Chicken Pozole Rojo is something you’ll want to try.

I stick with what I typically have on hand - slices radishes, serranos, cilantro, some lime wedges - though others like to include lemon, cabbage, salsa, onion, avocado or other chili peppers....

And what does every tropical (and even Asian) entree need as a side?...

Ingredients needed 🧾 How to make it 🔪 More soup recipes Recipe 📖 My friends joke that I order soup at a restaurant and end up eating it by dessert time.

We also like to serve it at weddings, parties, happy occasions, or events....

Scoville Heat Units: 1,500-2,000 SHU The Espanola was developed in New Mexico in the 1980s by crossing a Sandia pepper with another New Mexico chile. They grow to 5-7” and mature from green to a deep red. The young green fruits can be used to make green chili or chiles rellenos, while the red peppers are sometimes dried to make ristras or ground into a smoky chili powder. The Espanola is also popular in many dishes to add just a little kick....

The answer is YES. Absolutely. It’s a huge time saver. You can make a very large batch of your favorite stuffed peppers on a weekend and enjoy them all month long. Bonus! However, there are some important steps to take to ensure you retain the quality you desire. You can also thaw them in the refrigerator for several hours before cooking and they will heat through faster. I prefer to cook the stuffed peppers completely before freezing, but you don’t have to....
