Spring cleaning: Bachelor oddities

I've been a little reluctant to go through my larder, largely because I've been busy overhauling my swinging bachelor pad. Frankly, I was starting to think PSP's dustball campaign was inspired by my crib. In any event, here's what I found in my pantry:

Seven containers of ginger Altoids. When these first came out a couple of years ago they were impossible to get. So I snatched up about a dozen at a Trader Joe's in Westchester.
An unopened 10-pound bag of Kohinoor basmati rice. Time to fire up the old National rice cooker.
Two miniature bottles (one red, one green) of El Yucateco habanero hot sauce.

If anyone has any ideas about how to combine these ingredients (savory biryani with ginger habanero crunchies, maybe) please keep them to yourself. I plan to use the rice when I try my hand at Indian cooking. I'll save the hot sauce for scrambled eggs and such. As for the Altoids, maybe I'll throw some into tea.
