ReplyDeleteThere needs to be a cookbook for alcoholics or people that drink too much. The idea there is that they are simple recipes where you cook maybe one thing chop up some stuff and throw it together and then you pour one teaspoon to one tablespoon of tequila or whiskey or grand Marnier over the finished plate and eat it that way. So you really taste the stuff it doesn't get cooked out.
