Here's another egg recipe for you! It's not so much a recipe as an assembly process. When I first moved to the east coast, I was shocked by the lack of breakfast tacos, something that is widely available across the southwest. Actually, it wasn't such a huge shock as when I lived in the northwest, ...
As noted in my previous post on boiled blue crab, maybe the best part comes from the leftovers. One of our favorites is an amalgamation of crab and the veggie omelette concept from Ted's Restaurant on South Padre Island. It's a three egg omelettle made from Mushal's Finest Free Range Hen Eggs ...
Sometimes Plan B turns out better. We made a run to the surf at Freeport to pick up a whiting for a photo. Guys had been hammering them in the surf all week and all we needed was one. Yeah, should have been there yesterday. The weatherman blew the call, again, and sparing the details it was ...
This recipe came from 101 Cookbooks and I've been putting off making it. It wasn't the recipe's fault, it was just I hate using "forgotten" ingredients. If they don't make it into their planned dish, often pantry staples end up languishing for weeks and even, *gasp*, months before I use them. But ...
I have definitely been slacking on the posting department, but it's been more fun to read what everyone else is making than to post our own meals! It's been a long week so we've had some interesting combinations, but this was a good one. I think everyone is familiar with breakfast for dinner, ...
Quinoa is a great grain to use for some variety in cooking. It is something that has been cultivated and eaten in the Andes of South America for thousands of years; the Incas ate a lot of it. I have read a lot about it but this was my first time to actually cook it, and I can report that it ...
Well after taking abundant abuse for meat heavy cuisine we decided to show you guys that in the proper setting we can eat a vegetable or two. As usual I got overly ambitious and we were supposed to have natto-maki and kampyo-maki too. Actually we did have the kampyo-maki but it was the last ...
Here's another easy peasy lemon squeezy recipe that makes you look really good. Inspiration hit one afternoon when I had some Serrano ham out for one recipe and some serrano peppers out for some pico. The coincidental names struck me and the wheels started turning on how to take ...
"I'm turning Japanese, I think I'm turning Japanese, I really think so...." How else could you explain getting into this off the menu sushi bar concoction. It's as simple as it gets but it's also a stretch for the typical Western palate. All you need is good ikura (salmon eggs) which ...
Some might say that my friends and I look for reasons to have a party. I don't think US vs. Canada in the first round of the World Baseball Classic is a bad reason to have a party, do you? We decided to do it up Americana style and have a smoker party. Not that type of smoker party you ...
