Hi all, on a fast run through the library, I grabbed a cookbook  
called "On The Side" by Jessica B. Harris.  At home, idly browsing  
through, I was surprised to see so many recipes contained chiles:   
Scotch Bonnet,  habs, serrano, jalapeno, piquillo, bird chiles, etc  
etc.  Hey, these are not the kind of sides my granny used to cook! I  
was expecting, you know, green beans redux and corn relish deja vu  
type of sides but hoping for maybe one or two twists on old  
standbyes. <grin>

Had I read the list of other cookbooks by the author, I would not  
have been surprised at all the chiles in this one.  Her earlier works  
focused on cuisines from Africa and Caribbean, on Creole fusion, and  
even one titled "Hot Stuff."

Will post a sampling of recipes from the cookbook.  I haven't tried  
them, but you may see one that calls to you.
