From Away on Today!

by Jillian Bedell on February 1, 2013

[Ed note: This morning on the Today Show, Malcolm won the wing cookoff judged by Food Network personality Sunny Anderson with his Apricot-Shellacked Ghost Chile Chicken Wings. I think the recipe is worth re-posting. You can view the original recipe here. And I want to officially congratulate Malcolm on the win. Go Team!]


About the Author:

Jillian grew up in Connecticut, went to university in Boston, college in New Haven, did some post-grad soul searching in New York, exiled herself to Mexico, married her longtime sweetheart, and lived in a house on the ocean. She suspected Maine might be the perfect place to raise a family, so she came back home to New England two years ago. Now a mom to Violet Maeve and living in Rockland, where she hopes to settle for a good, long while, Jillian reads, writes, walks, and practices Nia, when not watching Malcolm photograph sandwiches.

Saw you on the Today Show this morning, immediately went to the Today Show website, read the bio about you, discovered fromaway.com and was smitten! Needless to say I didn’t get much work done today. You have an amazing collection of recipes.
Congrats on the win…well deserved.

Congrats Malcolm! I think it would be hysterical to have Sunny or Sandra Lee (and maybe one or two other FN hosts) eat a batch of your wings before taping one of their shows.

That is super cool!

Now, where do you get your ghost chile pepper?

Hey MCM, you have to order it on the Internet. Amazon has some sellers that sell ghost chile.

The folks at Gryffon Ridge carry them if you need a local source.
