Spicy Buffalo Blue Cheese Stuffed Soft Pretzels (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

in #food7 years ago

I bet there aren’t many guys that could resist the temptation of something buffalo chicken flavored. At least none that I’ve ever met.

I think we can all agree that it’s a guaranteed favorite flavor among those with XY chromosomes. Not that the girls don’t enjoy it too, but the guys flip over it.

Personally, I’m not a huge spice fan of extremely spicy foods. I happen to like tasting food while I eat it, but I do like a little kick sometimes if it’s balanced. Maybe that’s what it is. The contrast of hot spicy meat with cool blue cheese or ranch is just more exciting to eat then mild foods.

So, you may remember me telling a stories about having large groups over when we lived in Chile. One time we had over 70. Oh my, try getting that many people in one house and see how small it seems. Anyway, the group included a decent amount of dudes and these pretzels disappeared with record speed. My brothers haven’t stopped talking about them. They kept telling me I should make them again and post the recipe, so here it is. It was actually something I made up at the last minute when I had a bunch of extra chicken and pretzel dough at the same time. Those kind of recipes are usually my favorites though, when they are spontaneous and unplanned. Completely inspired by the moment.

And, okay I know I’m about to sound so cliché for saying this, but they taste way better than they look. For some reason they are hard to photograph because of their orangy color. I don’t really get it, but that’s the way it is. Actually, there were some terrible pictures taken of the originals by a few different people at the shindig and then posted on social networks. You guys, these were so bad that they made me want to quit this food thing all together. Of course, I appreciated the compliment and nice gesture of sharing by these different people but I couldn’t help thinking they looked pretty unappetizing.

They are pretty easy to make. You stuff with chicken in a buffalo blue cheese sauce and then twist them into pretzels. It sounds comlicated but I know you can do it. Also, I know it’s the opposite time of year for this, but these would be perfect for the Superbowl so keep that in mind for January, but they would also be good for any summertime events too or back to school snacks!

Hit the nail on the head! I think I would opt for ranch however.

I'll definitely have to make a version with ranch vs blue cheese! Thanks @drobinson.😊

This looks so yummy I just wanna tear it apart and stuff my mouth with it.

I am so glad you liked it @tilikum, thanks so much for commenting

Alternate recipe please. I need something simpler because I don't know how to cook anything. It's sad really. One time I made a peanut butter spoon. First you get the peanut butter out of the refrigerator. It's usually in the back behind the milk. Then, you get a spoon but doesn't really matter if it's wooden, plastic, or a metal one. Personally, I prefer metal because it's smoother, rather than splintery. Anyway, next step, pretty straightforward, you open up the jar of peanut butter with your good hand. Stick the spoon into the peanut butter jar, but be sure not to just leave it there. Pull out the spoon and if you did it right, there will be some peanut butter attached to the spoon. Be careful because the first time I did this I put in the skinny side of the spoon. It still works although you will get less of the peanut butter. Let it sit for up to 10 minutes and then eat carefully so as not to lodge it in your throat. I hear you are a cooking pro so good luck!

nice

You say it's hard to photograph, but I think you did a great job. Looks delicious to me! What did you use as a light source?

Great question @bradfordtennyson. I always use natural light for my food photos. I hope you have an awesome day!

Thanks for the response @gringalicious! I try and do the same when possible. If not I do my best to recreate the look with strobes. You have an awesome day as well 😁
