Have Some Fun With Great Flavors
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwire) -- 08/07/12 -- (Family Features) You don't have to be a gourmet chef to add great flavor to your favorite recipes. In fact, you probably already have what you need in your pantry to make something that will excite your taste buds.
The trick is to find new ways to use familiar ingredients -- such as using flavored potato chips as a crunchy breading for baked fish or chicken. If you're ready to have fun with flavor, here are a few other easy ideas:
Mixing some of your favorite herbs in with salt adds a whole new dimension of flavor to your dish. Combine 1/2 cup of coarse sea salt with your favorite combination of herbs, such as whole dried rosemary and dried thyme; cumin seeds, coriander seeds and dill seeds; or dried lemon or orange zest and lavender. Put it in a pepper mill and grind as needed.
Make a pound cake with fruity olive oil instead of vegetable oil, or try a chocolate chip cookie recipe with a little smoky bacon mixed in. Serve strawberries and balsamic vinegar over ice cream, or try some sharp cheddar cheese melted over a sweet apple pie. How about a Mexican-inspired chocolate pudding with a pinch of chili powder?
Mix things up for some easy, no-cook eats like watermelon slices with chunks of feta cheese; hummus and red grapes; or popcorn with smoked almonds and chocolate chips.
Another way to have some flavor fun is to enter the Lay's® "Do Us a Flavor™" contest. If you think you have what it takes to come up with your dream potato chip flavor, you can submit your flavor idea on the Lay's® Facebook page now through October 6, 2012.
