Fireroasted Garlic

[Guest guest]

Donna,

Wow, a brother-in-law's brother as a chef in Cancun! Pretty darn

cool! I bet he has amazing spicey ideas! I hope he made out ok in

last years hurricans? Thanks for the tips on the Garlic, I will

definatly be trying both the Garlic and Plantain ideas ASAP! I don't

know what Chayote is, I'd love to know more. Thanks again. I " m

getting hungry.

Sure Heidi,

Take the whole head of garlic and Don't peel, just run off the

flaking sking. Take a metal kabob skewer or a thin knife and pierce

the head and hold it over the high flame on the stove until the outer

skin blackens. Then toss the whole head into the soup and let it cook

in the pot with your plantains and soup. I learned the plantain and

garlic tricks from my brother-in-laws brother (got that) is a chef in

Cancun, Mexico psrt-tine during the summer months.

Are you familiar with chayote? It's also delicious in soups.

Hope this helps.
