There’s a specific kind of ranch that ruins all other ranch for you. Thick, tangy, herby, with just enough garlic and a creamy finish that somehow tastes better than anything you’d get from a bottle. Chili’s ranch is exactly that kind of ranch. I spent years just accepting that I could only have it when…
There’s a small glass bottle in my fridge that almost every person who visits notices. They pick it up, look at it, and ask what it is. When I tell them it’s just chili pepper water, they usually look a little confused like, that’s it? Just water and chilies? Yeah, pretty much. And it goes…

That was me, for a long time. It wasn’t until I started…
There’s a salsa I grew up eating at a tiny taqueria near my aunt’s house. Dark red, almost brick-colored, with this deep smoky heat that hit the back of your throat in the best possible way.
