It probably seems like I’ve gone Asian noodle crazy. Sometimes I think food replaced school for me–where once I would have been interested in learning the history of every culture/nation out there (I was a history major and loved it), now I seem determined to conquer all of their cooking. My current interest–along with Mediterranean…
Bakmie Goreng (Balinese Stir Fired Noodles)
I thought about titling this post How To Rescue A Failed Asian Noodle Dish, but it just smacked of arrogance given how few Asian noodles I have actually made in my life. It is however, a good lesson in how to fix a dish–especially when the initial fail is user error in seasoning. I got…
Greek Shrimp, Tomatoes & Orzo Baked With Feta
I am on a roll, people! It was probably that stomach virus, making me desperate for my whole family to be eating good food, but I have made several stellar dinners in a row now. Indian stew, sauerbraten, and now this Greek shrimp casserole. The latest was inspired by the most recent (as of my…
Shrimp & Scallops Tossed with Cherry Tomatoes, Basil & White Wine
I feel like the title of this post should be Why I Love Summer Part II: The Upscale Version. Because this was just as fast and pantry friendly as the last dish. It features summer’s best friends: zucchini and basil–and adds tomatoes, which only improves a dish. Now it just so happens that shrimp and…
Sun-Dried Tomato Pasta Toss With Crimini Mushrooms, Chicken Sausage & Feta Cheese
The past several weeks have been crazy. First, Alex had day camp for a week–her first time ever doing anything alone away from home–the same week I was baking for the pig roast. As far as I can remember I did not even cook after making that Thai curry, which lasted us a few nights….
Wild Mushroom Agnolotti Drizzled With Balsamic Cream Sauce
One of the perks of being a Food Buzz Featured Publisher is the opportunity to try to new products. This particular opportunity is double perked, so to speak, because Buitoni Pasta, the maker of the product in question, is giving away All Clad pots and pans–and to enter all they ask is that you create…
Grandma’s Beef and Noodles
It took my mom 30 years to manage to make her Beef and Noodles exactly like Grandma’s, so I suppose I should not be disheartened. And in fairness to both my mom and myself, my mom is hamstrung by my dad’s complete aversion to salt and I on the other hand was hamstrung by either…
Back In The Saddle: Daring Bakers’ Lasagne
And people wonder why I think counter space is a necessity for the Daring Bakers! This is the cooked noodles lying out to dry and waiting to be assembled–while I was still cooking more noodles. You read that title right–although depending on how well you know me it could either be the Daring Baker part…
Pasta Making In 2009 101
Introducing my new favorite appliance, the Kitchen Aid pasta roller. I’ve had this since last Mother’s Day but have been waiting for the new kitchen to try it (what? You think I should have been able to find noodle drying space with no counters, 2 toddlers and 3 dogs?). I actually did not originally want…
