Today is the Super Bowl! I don't actually pay any attention to football (unless the Seahawks or Ferndale Golden Eagles are doing especially well), but the Super Bowl provides the opportunity to eat absolutely decadent junk food. Chicken wings, super nachos, muffaletta, not to mention, chips and dips. And the crown jewel: a chocolate fondue. I am in charge of the wings, which I intend to roast in the oven rather than deep fry them. They come out lovely and crispy. It is the sauce that makes the magic though. My secret ingredient is Sriracha hot sauce, the California made Thai style sauce that no foodie is without. My kids love Sriracha on sweet potatoes and I throw it on anything needing a boost of flavor, including pizza and spaghetti. The sauce I make for wings is simply Sriracha, butter, and a little cider vinegar to give it the characteristic Buffalo tang. Delicious!
