The Laughing Wolf

A Happy Wolf

My spices have arrived. Things are a bit tight around here, in fact a lot closer to desperate than I care for. Yet, there was some good luck recently that allowed me to splurge and re-supply on some spices. And get a few new ones to try.

It took three suppliers, but I now have from The Spice House premium sweet Hungarian paprika, smoked sweet Spanish paprika, smoked hot Spanish paprika, Chinese cinnamon, and Vietnamese cinnamon. I have long wanted to try the smoked paprika. From Dean and Deluca I have my black and white truffle oil restored. Yes, it is expensive but a little bit goes a long way, and my last held out for a year or so. Finally, from Da Gift Basket, I have a pound of chipotle stocked away. That should last me a while.

The really good news is that I plan to make up a batch of sausage this weekend. I do indeed plan to have fun with it.
