Do You Plantain?
April 28, 2010
You work too hard to cook every night!
Let us prepare dinner for you Thursday April 29th, when proceeds from your check will go to Access Aids. They could not conduct all of the comprehensive services and programs they provide to individuals impacted by HIV/AIDS without the support of the Hampton Roads community. The support provided by local churches, civic groups, and volunteers ensures that programs will continue.
Besides, you might want to stop in and see what we are now serving to our guests alongside the bread and honey chipotle butter! (Plaintain Chips, anyone?)
Please take a minute and watch (and share) the video below?
Are You Missing Out?

Have you had Havana at Red Mill’s Homemade Chocolate Chip Brownie with Vanilla Ice Cream and Chocolate Ganache? If not, you’re missing out!
The sauce is very simple to make at home and is versatile in so may ways.
- Let it cool slightly on the counter top, and then coat fruit such as strawberries, raspberries
- Coat cookies or pretzels for in evening snack.
- Put it on ice cream, just use your imagination.
Whether your just beginning to learn to cook or you are a veteran, my advice is to just try to feel your way around the kitchen. Imagine in your mind the way something might taste, and experiment with it. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose, but from my experience, when I really think something will taste delicious in my mind or on paper, I’m usually pretty successful. So try to be creative, you never know what might taste delicious and what won’t unless you experiment.
4 oz of chocolate chips
2 cups Heavy Cream
Butter (optional)
Bring the cream to a boil. Once cream comes to a boil, remove from the heat. Whisk in the chocolate chips in until sauce is smooth. You could whip in about an ounce or so of butter and it will give the chocolate a very nice sheen.
What dish would you create with this chocolate ganache?
