I spotted the first June figs at Russo's and they were almost good enough for my fig conserve so checking back ASAP. I was in the midst of a pepper jelly frenzy - of course everyone must know what that is like. I cut up tons of dark red shiny peppers and mix them up with tiny yellow habaneros and do some other stuff I can't share and out comes the shiny gorgeous reddish orange jelly. I love it with cheddar on a sandwich and grilled tiny lamp chops.
On other non-jam fronts has anyone tried Lark's chocolate cookies? I think they are called cha chas or something - the cookies are a seductive deep dark chocolate with a shot of chili that creates the most amazing mouthful of zing - kinda like my Red Pepper Jelly which is why they came to mind. Find them! Buy them!! and you might also get the Red pepper jelly while you are at it.
