Bilinski's on Food Network
Monday, July 27, 2009

The “Chicken Little” line of organic mini-chicken sausages manufactured by Bilinski’s Sausage Manufacturing Co. in Cohoes will be center stage on the Food Network’s show, “Unwrapped,” at 9 tonight.

Bilinski’s is hosting a viewing party for sausage fans beginning at 7:30 tonight at Brown’s Brewing Company on River Street in Troy.

Guests will be able to sample Bilinski’s all-natural and organic chicken sausages and will have an opportunity to meet the family behind the 80-year-old business. There will also be door prizes and Bilinski products will be available for special factory order at less than wholesale prices.

Bilinski’s manufactures all natural or certified organic chicken sausage, beef and pork products and specialty hams at its Cohoes factory.

The Chicken Littles line was introduced in 2008 and feature six flavors — Buffalo wing, apricot and rosemary, apple chardonnay, teriyaki, jalapeno cheddar and blueberry maple.

The Food Network’s “Unwrapped” is a behind-the-scenes food products show that debuted in 2001 and is hosted by Marc Summers. When they “unwrap” Bilinski’s Chicken Littles they’ll learn that they’re made from skinless chickens that are antibiotic free and 100 percent vegetarian fed and that they contain no preservatives.

Goodbye, Tortilla Tilapia

One of my favorite ready-to-bake fish choices from the supermarket was Hannaford’s tilapia fillets crusted with crushed tortilla chips, lime zest and chipotles. They were wonderful as an entree or cut up and served warm as hors d’oeuvres.

So I was greatly disappointed the other day when I stopped by the seafood section to pick up a few fillets only to discover that they no longer are offering them.

Apparently they didn’t sell well enough, the man behind the counter said.

Now I’ll have to come up with a recipe for making them at home. Any ideas?
