NOW THAT IVE GOT YOUR ATTENTION, LET ME ELABORATE.....
THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA, FORK AND HOSE CO. HAS BEEN ABLE TO REACH FIREFIGHTERS ACROSS THE GLOBE. IT HAS TRULY BECOME A PLACE FOR WORLDLY INSPIRATION IN THE FIREHOUSE KITCHEN AND I AM FOREVER GRATEFUL TO THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTE AND FOLLOW US. BUT SOMETIMES THERE ARE THOSE WHO ARE "RIGHT IN OUR BACKYARD" DOING GREAT THINGS, SUCH IS THE CASE WITH UNCLE RICHIE'S COOKIES......
While we here at Fork and Hose Co. believe in the importance of eating healthier in the firehouse, we also know that treating yourself once in a while is just as important. A few extra squats and burpees and your good to go!
Uncle Richie's Cookies was started in August of 2012 by Richard Ahmed, a proud father, firefighter and baker. He is a firefighter in the Fire Department of New York with Ladder 160, Engine 326 and Battalion Chief 53 out of Oakland Garden, Queens. His passion for baking, family and firefighting is what made me want to try Uncle Richie's Cookies and boy am I glad I did. In the picture above on the left, we have the Dark Chocolate Walnut Sea Salt cookie. This cookie has so much going on its crazy, the soft dough is balanced out by the crunch of the walnut. The dark chocolate has just the right amount of bitterness and sweetness. And the piece de resistance, the sea salt! Salty and sweet, probably my favorite of any flavor combination. And then we have the Peanut Butter and Jelly cookie. This is the cookie that really caught my eye, literally. You can see in the picture how there is actually jelly in the peanut butter cookie. Uncle Richie cuts the cookie in half so that you get the full effect, genius! It is so well balanced, neither component over power each other. I can sum this cookie up in one word, ADDICTING. I can not wait to try some of his other creations!
