I talked my DH into driving into Bridgewater & Somerville today. It is a pretty long drive for us - around 45 minutes. But, Somerville has an oriental grocery I like to go to and Bridgwater has Bed, Bath & Beyond aside from other stores. At the oriental grocery, I got 2 bags of chiles - one with smallish ripe chiles (not thai birds though) and what looked like thai dragons or some type of cayenne. I also got a jar of "Spicy Pot Sauce" from Taiwan - it has chiles, black peppercorns, shallots, garlic, salt, salad oil and sesame oil as the ingredients. My DH said "what are you going to use it on?" I said - pasta, rice, chicken, you name it. I'll be trying it for lunch on Monday probably. Looks so good. Full of chiles. I also got a small shaker of Ichimi Togarashi - which I have been looking for. Yeah. Small enough to put in the pocketbook. I'll be having some fun.
