Apoca-lips

A couple of years ago, Ming sent us a delicious red chili jelly. As I neared the end of the tiny jar, I tried to recreate it, which ended a disaster as jelly, but it had become an indispensable chili sauce at Chez Nakagawa. As we near the end of that concoction, how do I recreate something that was supposed to be something else? I tried to remember what I used in the ingredients, but Ben had a bumper year of chili last year, (the only thing we grew amidst a field of weeds,) so I got a tad too eager.

It turned in to half a dozen jars of concoction with four varieties of chili that may require a pipette to apply. We may have to bequeath some to a couple of unsuspecting Nelson youth.

  1. That is the beauty of nature and eating local. Sometimes we take what we get and it isn't always exactly what we expected. Some years, our peppers are very hot, other years you wonder if someone packaged them wrong and they aren't hot at all. I just returned from a visit to New Zealand (North Island) and hope to get back to see South Island, too.
