Roasted Half Chicken with Chickpea and Gigande Hoppin' John Roasted Half Chicken with Chickpea and Gigande Hoppin' John
I really enjoy southern style cooking. It's comfort food at its best using a mixture of flavors for a guaranteed delicious result. In fact I have yet to come across a southern dish or recipe that didn't end with an empty plate.Hoppin' John is a classic southern recipe traditionally eaten on New Year's Day to bring a prosperous year filled with luck. The name has been given many different origin stories over the years however I always thought it was due to the abundant spices added into the seasoning causing the diner to "hop" from the heat. My version is more on the calm side.

Red Kidney Beans with Corn - Jon Style Red Kidney Beans with Corn - Jon Style
In summer, it's the perfect time to make delicious fresh porotos granados, but during other seasons when they're not available, we use dried beans. Also, when we're in another country and can't find fresh ones, we turn to dried beans. I usually like to use white beans, but this time I decided to use red kidney beans, which are very tasty. I like to add lots of vegetables to legumes—it's a great way to absorb the minerals and vitamins they contain. I made this in a pilco style, without the corn pudding (mazamorra).
