The Wings of Change! Miso Glaze….. Never thought it would come to this but here we are, game day, chicken wings. I officially joined the other 3 trillion food blogs featuring wings today in America. Nothing wrong with that. I love those marvellous things so why not make my own wings my own way. I have to […]
Having been away from my kitchen for about a month the craving of home cooked meals is tremendous. I’ve been fantasizing about making all these new recipes and the second I get home, my mind goes blank. I can’t even put together a decent sandwich… ok I take that back, mayo and toast is a pretty awesome […]
Arepas are definitely a Venezuelan food staple. Maize flour defines this dish and many others in Venezuelan cuisine. Arepas are also popular in colombia and go by the same name. In El Salvador they’re called pupupas and are slightly different but the idea is the same. What makes this dish Venezuelanly unique is the flour […]
Counting the seconds to Thanksgiving day but in the mean time no reason to NOT be eating delicious homemade stuff. Specially with this super crap weather we’re having in the beautiful city of Vancouver. Gotta fix my shitty mood somehow. I’ve never made tacos before. I’ve had tacos before. Like a million times. Having lived in LA […]
So this ebook thing. I’m getting pretty excited about writing one. I’m still looking for a good software use. InDesign by Adobe seems like good option. I have no clue how to use it but I just downloaded the 30 day free trial version. I’ll play with it when I get a chance. […]
There’s not enough time lately to get back into kitchen adventures of larger proportions due to external and very annoying forces. A simple dish will have to do for now. Simplicity. And simplicity of the simplest kind. A lonely side dish. A vegetarian one too (what’s happening to me…) Anyways, there’s little time so let’s get into it. […]
I start every post with a photo. Another fact about this blog. No ads. Ok, another one. It’s not a site about recipes, It’s some sort of cooking journal. I write about adventures in cooking and I share them. That’s how this blog started and that how it stays. One more, ok. As much as I bash on […]
So… remember that octopus dish from like 20 minutes ago… leftovers went into a second dish which was basically a simplification of the former. I love squid ink. I know it looks terrifying but the flavor is quiet spectacular. I would expect nothing less from (let me get my reading glasses…) a highly developed bio-defence […]
That’s a lot of babies. Yikes! Oh well…. It’s done now and it was deeeelish. No regrets. Random question… do you ever not get on the bus just because there’s too much people on it already? Clear sign that overpopulation isn’t good, and certainly not good for the baby octopi out there. The octopus. Super smart creature…. […]
And… back to more budget cooking. Easy Creamy Mushroom Crepes. Fall is here, which means… at least in my world… more exciting cooking. I’m all for quick summery meals, but the real fun begins when slow cooking kicks in. This recipe today might be one of my last summery meals of the year… with some exceptions […]
