I made Peruvian Chicken. It was the spice mix from 2021-03-20 except no added salt¹. I also 2.5x that since I was doing two chickens and some tofu (see below). Of course, that is based on Peruvian-Style Roast Chicken & Spicy Jalapeño Sauce [The Food Lab]. I used that sauce recipe with lactose-free sour cream. I also kind of winged it with amount of garlic and cilantro (both increased).

I dry-brined the day before and added the spices all of two hours before cooking

It came out really good as usual! I really like this recipe. And the sauce was very well received.

I also tried to make Peruvian Tofu for Emily. I spread the rub on it. It was not easy since it really should be wetter for tofu. I also meant to add salt since I didn't do it in the rub. I thought they tastes bland but Emily liked it a lot. And again, good with the sauce.

Emily also roasted Japanese Sweet Potatoes.
