Battle 14: Pecan and Cumin
Each Foodie Fights battle gets more and more interesting! These are pretty common ingredients, so it will be interesting to see how people incorporate them into dishes. I’m not sure that they compliment each other perfectly so it’ll be interesting to see how people can make them work without overpowering one or the other.
Without further ado: Battle Pecan and Cumin!
The Fighters!
Experimentation in the Kitchen
My BF Likes It, So It Must Be Good
Om-nom-nomnivore (Lazy Sumo)
One of the judges will, of course, be the winner of the last battle, Marillyn, and the second judge will be announced later! Please, be gentle with them. They will do their best I’m positive.
So, if your a contestant, get cooking! Your entries are due by Monday Night (10/19). If you are a visitor, check back Tuesday morning for the full list of entries!
And, of course, you can now sign-up for Battle 15!

Heya Peggy! Good luck to you, and all the other contestants. My brain’s been churning since I read this earlier this morning and I think I have a great idea…
Now… to get some good blackmail material on the judges to ensure that they agree… Mwuhahahahahaha!

@LazySumo: If your idea is Ground Cumin Covered Walnuts, you have my vote.

…on second though Sumo, maybe you should stick to the secret ingredient of PECANS and not walnuts. (I’m smaaahhht)

[...] ingredients. But they are the two featured ingredients for Foodie Fights Battle #14, in which I was chosen to participate. Cumin, at least, is fairly easy to come by around here, but pecans are horrendously expensive. [...]
