Cooking…for the halibut

Finished!  I'm lagging behind on writing up and posting these reviews, but the cooking was all finished in January.  Summary follows in a few days.

To-Try Recipe #17: Coconut and Spice Chickpeas

Not impressed. It’s just chickpeas cooked with onion, garlic, coconut milk, turmeric and cayenne pepper. I’ll try it again before making a final decision, but the turmeric really has no flavor and all the cayenne does is make it a little spicy. Some real spices, like cardamon or curry or cumin, would have improved things a whole lot.

Later, on retry, I decided that they tasted better that I thought at first. A half-hour sitting in the pan improved them immensely. But I think I’ll hold out for a different recipe.

Keep or Discard?  Discard
