Tri-Tip Dry Rub
Grilled corn with mole sauce.
One (we love them all) of our favorite foodie neighbors are Caesar and Chris at My Mom's Mole down the road at the El Pajaro kitchen incubator.
I have never tried mole this aromatic- almost like Indian spices than the heavy chocolatey mole sauce I am used to. Please try it- you will be thrilled! Order It Here
The guys grind it fresh and sell it on their website. I was smart enough to give it to one of my good chef friends and am sharing the results here. Thanks Tom Ingalls of Ingalls Design San Francisco for the recipe showing the creative way (of course) you used it. Tom is a graphic designer, book designer, principal of Missing Link Press and faculty member at Ca. College of the Arts.
Outdoor dining Fall 2019 with chef Tom serving one of his specialties for his cookbook. Now, we should all do our part by minimizing mixing, wearing a mask, and physically distancing.
