We are entering our last full month of entries for the 2023 Scovie Awards Competition. Here are some important things to remember.
Sichuan Chile Sauce
Here is a classic chile sauce from one of the hottest regions–foodwise–in China. This Sichuan chile sauce can be used in stir-fry dishes, added to soups, or sprinkled over rice.
Basic Dry Cure for Bacon or Salmon
This is a dry cure that can be used on about five pounds of pork belly for bacon or fish such as salmon. This cure will keep, covered, for several months.
Yucatecan Shrimp Cocktail
We loved the way Yucatecans served seafood cocktails like this shrimp one in tall parfait glasses with a thin sauce that was more like a juice.
Strategies for Entering the Scovies Awards
Entering the Scovie Awards is a great marketing aid for a spicy food company. But like with any other aspect of a business, having a great battle plan to get the most out of your effort is key.
Peach-Habanero Chutney
The word chutney comes from the Sanskrit word chatni, and in India, refers to relishes that are used to accent other dishes. They can be sweet, sour, hot, or mild.
Margarita-Grilled Shrimp Quesadilla
If ever there were such a thing as a “Grilled Shrimp Mexican-Style Pizza,” this would be it. This can be served whole or cut into wedges as an appetizer.
