Sriracha Cheese Log
Went to film an episode of Master Pairings with “Dr.” Bill on Saturday and whipped up a batch of my Sriracha Cheese Log. Hadn’t made it since developing the recipe about two years ago and forgot how damn tasty it is. Cream cheese, chèvre, Sriracha (of course), parsley, rosemary, chives, garlic, and black peppercorns. Mmmmmm. I’ll definitely be breaking this one out again...

This… Changes… EVERYTHING!!
Thanks to rooster sauce fanatic Eric Wentz for bringing this to my attention on The Sriracha Cookbook Facebook page, and kudos to Reddit user aoisenshi for posting the sprayracha idea with the simple caption: “Can’t believe this works.” (So cool that he’s got a copy of The Sriracha Cookbook chillin’ in the background, too!)

Recipe for Sriracha Crab Rangoon Wontons
The illustrious Andrea Nguyen (who you may know from her blog, Viet World Kitchen, or perhaps her amazing cookbooks: Into the Vietnamese Kitchen and Asian Dumplings) has done some pretty hefty research on the history of crab rangoon. She’s also quite the Sriracha aficionada in her own right.
Naturally, I was thrilled when she wrote a very flattering endorsement for the back cover of The...

Honey-Sriracha Glazed Buffalo Wings... VEGANIZED!
When I set out to write The Sriracha Cookbook, I had no idea what a humongous love affair the vegetarian/vegan community had with Sriracha. I dare say they might somehow adore the rooster sauce even more than your most carnivorous friend. (If you follow @quarrygirl’s tweets long enough, you’ll see what I mean.)
Case in point? Ryann at MyWholeDeal.com. She was badass enough to buy my...

Sriracha and SPAM Fried Rice recipe
This is my take on the first dish I ever put Sriracha on: fried rice that my good friend Phi’s mom made for breakfast. She used a Chinese-style sausage, for which I took the liberty of subbing SPAM, and I also cooked the rice with the Sriracha rather than just drizzling it on (although you and I both know we’re gonna be topping it off with some more cuz that’s just how we...

Fire Roasted Corn Chowder recipe with Sriracha
I absolutely love this recipe… and this photo might be my favorite from the whole book. Huge kudos to food stylist Karen Shinto, photographer Leo Gong, and art director Betsy Stromberg for all their work on The Sriracha Cookbook. I’m not one with a real eye for design, so collaborating with such talent was an absolute honor! (And of course eating all the spicy leftovers after the...

Five Signs of a Good Pho Shop: OCWeekly →
My first exposure to the wonderful world of Sriracha was at my friend Phi’s house. His mom offered it with her amazing Vietnamese fried rice (cơm chiên) and I fell in love. It wasn’t long before Phi took me to Phở Số 1, and it was there that I had my first bowl of heavenly phở, topped with a handful of exciting green herbs I barely recognized and a healthy drizzling of Sriracha. I...
