I'd ordered a dried red pepper new to me, and it arrived yesterday. Dramatic unboxing follows, complete with official first grinding, in the pepper grinder.
It's hot, but like nutmeg, too. This will be great in soup or shakshuka or spag sauce, and I'll include it in my next batch of berbere. It now has a place on my salt and pepper shelf.
The wall hanging is shaping up, almost done with the applique blocks.
I need to think about the final stage.
Happy day everyone, try new things, you never know!
