Growing up as a kid, my favorite meal was taco pie. I can remember my Mom taking crescent rolls and rolling them out on the bottom of a pie pan to cook. I would often ask during the process if we were having taco pie. She would reply yes, and I would secretly become ecstatic. [...]

Food on the Radio

I don’t understand why there isn’t more food on the radio. Cooking has so many sounds! Bacon sizzling, water boiling, eggs cracking, chopping vegetables on a cutting board. This piece about an apple tart is a really great example of that and the chef talks about how food sounds is an important detail to pay [...]

Cooking can be a Bitch

I think there are times when we all call our mo’s for cooking advice. I know I do it all the time. But when my mom doesn’t answer her phone, there is a substitute – Food52. Thanks to these great people, I can tweet or email my food problems and get an instant response. Maybe [...]

I’m starting grad school this week. This means I become poorer than I was in the first place, thus, I will be more in debt than before. The situation also means I have to eat more cheaply. Best news, I don’t have to sacrifice my love of Indian food, especially curry. A couple months ago, [...]

While I was a vegetarian, I learned to cook. I was vegetarian from the end of my freshmen year of college until the beginning of my junior year of college. At first, I ate a lot of cheese pizza or pasta or eggs, eggs, and more eggs. (Don’t get me wrong, I love eggs, but [...]

I learned to make bread one summer in northern Florida while staying with my boyfriend’s aunt and uncle for a few weeks. Since then I’ve become pretty obsessed with it. I started trying whole wheat bread, naan, pizza doughs, and my dear friend the sourdough who I personally consider a genius because it comes from [...]
Going Veg

I’ve decided to go fully vegetarian. More like lacto-ovo vegetarian, but I currently have a fear of getting salmonella poising and dying. But mainly, my roommate is vegetarian and it makes shopping way easier. Plus, I don’t have to worry about accidental cross-contamination. In honesty, I really don’t miss meat. It always had a weird iron taste [...]

I’ve started the Chocolate Hazelnut Biscotti dough from Smitten Kitchen. She didn’t lie about the dough being SUPER sticky. It’s currently sitting in my fridge, and I hope that maybe, just maybe it will become less sticky. It’s on old trick my mom and grandma taught me. Writers and Company. CBC 1
