What's on the menu for everyone today?
Roy has been wanting chicken wings, so that will be it with some oven roasted potatoes (from garden) and a salad.
Took my little 'sample bottle' to applebees with me yesterday and the mgr. gave me a sample of the Oriental Salad dressing to compare. He took a little of both back to the kitchen and the chef immediately came out to talk to me. He suggested I try adding chicken fat and maybe using a sugar syrup (instead of honey) to thicken it up a little.
Mine version was a little sweeter than the original, but pretty much flavor right on. So, a successful testing, somewhat.

Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.
