This recipe is a staple side dish of mine that I’ve adapted and modified at length through the years. Both colorful and flavourful I think it creates a texturally interesting background for spicy curries and other East Indian flavoured entrees. Coconut Rice with Lentils and CashewsINGREDIEN...

Do you trust your oven? A lot of times I get questions from readers criticizing how a recipe came out and demanding that I change the instructions or details It always somewhat amuses me that clearly -I’m- the one to blame if -their- attempt comes out wrong One simple suggestion that I ...

Call it nostalgia but it’s hard to convince me that the local commercials of the 80’s and 90’s didn’t have a certain ’something’ that the current set lacks. There was something very magnetic about the hooks and taglines back then. Lion’s Baking Powder had...

As previously mentioned, Malta Carib was actually posited as an integral ‘educational aid’ I don’t know if it ever helped me in my exams, but I certainly loved (and still love) the taste. Yum! Please visit my earlier post for more information on Malta Carib. ...

Corrine - :)

Ann - I will be doing a post about this in the near future. But the bloom that is referred to as hibiscus in American cooking and the bloom we call sorrel do appear to be the same thing. Cleared up a LOT of confusion for me :)

I hate.. hate… HATE when a recipe gets the best of me. It’s a control thing, I freely admit it. But after 3 valiant attempts I must grudgingly, and rather apologetically confess that this deceptively simple dessert beat me bad. The first time I attempted it, the dough was an utter dis...

Too hot to cook? Farmer's markets are in full swing with summer's bounty: tomatoes, peaches, cucumbers, melons, zucchini. Luckily these summer stars are best savored straight out of the fridge. Step away ...

This blog is on the brink of entering it’s 4th year and I’ve never done a Republic Day post! For shame! This is probably because Republic Day comes so quickly after Independence Day and is by its own nature quieter in terms of pomp and circumstance. It is so nondescript that it was e...
