Pink Peppercorns.
Did you know that they're not actually a true peppercorn? Just a little ripe berry from the Brazilian pepper tree. Who knew?
With a delicate, fragrant, sweet and spicy flavor, reminiscent of sweet berries and citrus zest.

Sounds like I could use a truck full of these little biddy beauties after every Wednesday's pilates class.

In Winter, root vegetables are indispensable for those of us that love to cook. As the weather cools and the days get shorter, our thoughts turn to long, slow cooking. Cooking that warms our kitchens and fills our homes with comforting aromas.

It's as simple as it sounds. Chicken, red wine and just the one pot. Oh...and a little love.
I love the shift to Winter my mind, body and routine takes. Bit by bit, slowing down. Not completely, as that would be too good to be true, but just enough to notice. I seem to take longer over my morning latte. I'm in bed earlier. The food in my kitchen cooks for longer.
This dish is not the true coq au vin. However, it is chicken slow cooked in red wine and I did use French wine, so I'm still going to say it's somewhat French. Perhaps French inspired?
