Call us epi-curious, but a new treat from a local chef is whetting our appetites and raising our eyebrows. The trusty ingredient for so many south-of-the-border dishes becomes the main focus in a new dessert from chef Hedy Goldsmith of Michael's Genuine Food & Drink. Taking on a challenge from Goya, Goldsmith created a Goya Black Bean, Ginger, and Lime Cupcake with Guava Frosting — yes, it's a (strange) mouthful.
We're usually all over any new dessert, but we're approaching this one with a bit more trepidation. It could be the best combo since salt and chocolate, but alternatively this confection might just leave us with a bad taste in our mouths (and a toilet break later). We figure if anyone can make us melt into a food coma, it would be a seasoned pastry chef like Hedy, but would you dive head-first into this new dish, or save the black beans for your side of rice and guac?
