I have quite a few food heroes and heroines in this world. Countless men and women who have impacted my cooking life in ways they simply couldn’t imagine because, well, they don’t know who I am. I don’t lament this fact. It’s the magic of shared information and art across the great Internet highway. The idea that I can benefit from the experience and expression of a complete stranger is kind of beautiful. And the fact that these strangers unknowingly coached me towards these Roasted Sugar Beignets is nothing short of extraordinary. So, please! Grab a beignet, sit back and let me tell you about the extraordinary women who make these clouds of bliss possible.
Okay so, I’m going to kick off today’s post with a little controversy because that’s the kind of hard-hitting, dangerous site Rhubarb & Cod is. I mean, listen to the name. Tough, right?! Anyway, here is my potentially controversial thought: Sweet potatoes shouldn’t be fries. Shock! Gasp! Yes, I really did just say that. I think sweet potatoes are inherently ill-suited to the higher calling that is being a french fry. They have too much moisture, they’re too prone to burning, and finally, they just don’t taste right. But that’s not to say I’ve turned my back on the tuber altogether. I mean, obviously, I haven’t. Today’s recipe is Smoked Sweet Potatoes with Black Beans and Honey Bonnet Butter. The sweet potato can be many many things, just not french fries.
