The Perfect Meat

Let’s be serious. Whether you are a vegetarian, pescatarian or carnivore, we are all looking for that perfectly-shaped and girthed piece of meat. I have been on the hunt on how to salvage such a piece long and hard without paying for it. Isn’t everyone’s New Year’s resolution to save more? Paying for it always…

Everything Mini Makes it Healthier

For some reason, on my Instagram explore page, I have videos of miniature cooking as a recommended section. I don’t know why. I mean I end up checking it out and wonder why people take the time to make it. I guess to each his own. I have been taking forever to make these cupcakes. I…

Definitely not on the…

Seafood Extravaganza

I really like to experiment with different textures and ingredients. I wanted to eat seafood so I came up with this delicious, and yes, spicy, seafood tier. This is a great dish to cook for a small dinner party. It includes your protein, starch and green vegetable. I used mustard oil to enrich the taste….

Spicy Breakfast Farina

There are so many different grains out there that I can’t even keep up.  However, my mom always made this delicious breakfast to hide that fact we were eating something healthy. Farina is a cereal food, and usually it is served as a sweet breakfast. But because I don’t like oatmeal, I knew I wouldn’t…
