About the limit is staying with the chiles over the gas flame so they don't actually incinerate. [O yeah, if you don't have gas, you can char them under a broiler, but it's more of a pain - or use a blowtorch!]<BR/>It's actually better to use your hands sorting out the chicken - you can feel the stray bone chip and the other non-meaty parts.<BR/>When the cumin, roasting, smells really good, it's done.<BR/>It's not a 30-minute dish, but you end up with dividends of stock, of (very likely) beautiful extra chicken, eminently suitable for many other things.<BR/>Obviously, I love to cook, but I have my range. I don't do sweets (can, but don't), and I like to bake bread but not much else. In my extended family, one of my sisters is brilliant at all of that patisserie, so I leave it to her.<BR/>Give me a hunk of cheese and some fruit and a really good wine and I'm happy at the end of a meal.grishaxxxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14730729116978062510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10525820.post-1119476089930583202005-06-22T14:34:00.000-07:002005-06-22T14:34:00.000-07:00I'm going to try it.
