Not a recipe....but a handy tool. 
I had seen this thing on shows like No Reservations and Bizarre Foods, usually being used in Asian food markets and I thought it looked perfect for dipping wings or fish out of hot oil. I had no idea what it was called, but after a few google searches I discovered it's called a "spider skimmer." It's simply a wire basket attached to a bamboo handle. I bought a 7" model on ebay and tried it out last night. Works great! Perfect for dipping anything out of hot liquid.

Just another night at work for me and Monty will be back here again bright and early.
