Until I watched the hour-long program on CNBC last night, I hadn't
realized that Costco is the largest seller of wine in the world. It
was a good program. Watch it if you get a chance

We (Idaho) tried last year to get rid of the state-owned liquor
stores. Costco and others provided legal and $ support, but it just
wasn't going to happen. They were going to try again this year but
just gave up.

Are you going to the NW Food show at the Seattle Convention Center

out samples...

I'd recorded it and I just watched it. I got a kick out of seeing
the woman behind the addictedtocostco website. I found it when I
was searching to see if I was missing a coupon book and I like
reading her reviews of different products and see what other people
have to talk about.

Thanks for that heads up. I had no idea there was such a site. I
just took a quick look at it and tabbed it for my Favorites.
Thanks

Have you seen it? What would you use it for? Just curious.

Will they be allowed to discount? Crazy laws in some places still forbid
less than minimum prices.

I haven't seen it in my Costco. My Costco seems to lean toward
Italian meats and cheeses. However, we are getting a wide choice of
European cheese these days. I would love to have a look at the master
list of products that are available to store managers. It has got to
be huge and diverse.

I'm not a big breakfast for dinner person, but I sauté up longaniza
and then scramble it with eggs for dinner and chorizo works just as
well. Serve with rice or tortillas, salad or vegetable. I wouldn't
hesitate to use chorizo in place of bits of ham in any recipe, but
bean stew/stoup would be my favorite.

I've made this recipe pretty much as written (yes, I even had Vaquero
beans) Vaquero Bean and Chorizo Stew
http://localkitchenblog.com/2011/01/...-chorizo-stew/

I've made this recipe too (didn't follow it to the letter) and it was
very good. I always use thighs and I'm pretty sure I used fresh
cilantro instead of ground coriander.

Chicken with Chorizo
http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/chicken-with-chorizo

4 servings

Total Time: Under 2 Hours Skill Level: Easy

Ingredients

3 tbsp olive oil
4 chicken legs
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
9 oz (250g) smoked chorizo, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp ground coriander
1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 large zucchini, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried thyme
One 14.5 oz (411g) can chopped tomatoes
1 cup chicken stock
¼ cup dry sherry


Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Heat the oil in a large
flameproof casserole over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with
salt and pepper. Add the chicken and cook, turning occasionally, about
6 minutes, until browned; remove.

2. Add the chorizo to the casserole and cook, stirring often, for
about 3 minutes; remove. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the
onion. Cook, about 5 minutes, or until softened. Add the coriander and
stir for 1 minute. Add the peppers, zucchini, garlic, and thyme, and
cook about 5 minutes, or until the peppers begin to soften.

3. Add the tomatoes, stock, and sherry and bring to a boil. Return the
chicken and chorizo to the casserole, cover, and bake 40 minutes, or
until the chicken is tender.

Variation:

Spicy Chicken Casserole: Add 9 oz (250g) chopped new potatoes with the
onion. In step 3, add a pinch of dried chile flakes.
