For Iron Chef 32, the secret challenge is……..

Nuts! (any kind, peanut, walnut, cashew, etc)

As with the other ICs, this is a challenge to ourselves. There is no judging, and no winner. We are ALL winners in this since we will all benefit from the creativity and new recipes that this challenge will bring us.

The rules are simple, this challenge is open for 7 days (week of 12/27/09 - 1/3/10). During that 7 day period, make any kind of dish you want, however you want. Drink, Appetizer, Main Course, Dessert, etc. The only stipulations are that you must use Nuts in some way in the dish, and it must be something you have cooked during the 7 day period of this challenge.

Once your dish is ready, it’s a good idea to make a new post with your recipe. Then, post a link and a picture of your recipe to this thread. Alternatively, if you like, post your recipe and pictures here. In the end, we will compile all the results into one thread for easy searching.

Now, let Battle Nuts begin!

I was excited when this challenge rolled up. I use nuts and seeds all the time, especially cashews and almonds. Cashews make an amazing base for sauces and I hope to post two or three this week. I'm making a nacho sauce for tacos tonight and, maybe, a cashew Alfredo later this week. But for now, here's my cashew Caesar salad dressing.

I made a cashew based nacho sauce, which is absolutely delicious for tacos on Tuesday. I had a cashew Alfredo sauce over linguine last night and am making cashew chow mein tonight. But for now, here's some vegan chili cheese nachos.

I would love to see a recipe for the arancini. I've never had it. Looks de-lish sitting on top of that sauce!

I make tons of cashew sauces, but I usually don't make them taste like their dairy counterpart. But I was hankering for an Alfredo sauce, so I came up with this. I'm making a cashew stir fry tonight too, but I probably won't get anything posted.
