I love cookies. If I’m at Whole Foods or Pusateri’s chances are I’m buying a cookie. One of my favourite and easily accessible cookies is the White Chocolate and Macadamia Nut cookie from Subway, I could eat those ALL THE TIME.
I also […]
I’ve blogged about my journey to make the perfect pizza a few times already like here, here, and here. The other day on Twitter saw one of my posts and suggested I give this recipe a try. It comes from Cook’s Illustrated, and we know how […]
So I’m back on the bread-making bandwagon. I love the no-knead technique because my kitchen is on the (very) small side and I kind of don’t love kneading, it can be a lot of work! I guess a handy dandy KitchenAid Stand Mixer would do the trick but alas I […]
Once you start getting into cooking you start to hear about the importance of a good set of knives. Truth be told I’ve never invested in good set of knives despite the fact that I’ve been cooking seriously for years. It didn’t make sense to get a good set while I […]
I love getting the latest issue of Cook’s Illustrated magazine. It really is a food geek’s dream. I love reading the details about how they arrived at the ingredients and procedure of each recipe. I also love that the recipes are for some pretty basic things that we’ve all been […]
Truth be told one of my fave meals is the meatball plate at IKEA. Yes, the quality of the food has fallen off in recent years but whenever I’m at IKEA (which happens quite often since I work within walking distance of one) I just HAVE to have the meatballs. I think it’s because […]
When was the last time you had sloppy joes? Think long and hard about that one! For me I think it had been AT LEAST 15 years. To be honest, I haven’t really thought about sloppy joes that much over the years until I came across this recipe from Cook’s Illustrated. When I […]
I fully admit that I have an obsession with Fried Chicken. It may come from living in Harlem for two years (Harlem stand up!) OR it could come from my past life of being a Southern grandmother… not sure. When I saw this recipe for The Ultimate Crisp Fried Chicken from Cook’s Illustrated […]
A few years ago when I was still in university, a few girlfriends and I went to Boca Raton for spring break. If you’re familiar with Boca then you know that it is filled with retirement communities, which was kind of perfect for lazy, laid-back spring break. We stayed with my friend’s grandparents at […]
Dear Baked Ziti,
You were only kind of delicious.
When I see a recipe in Cook’s Illustrated I expect it to be the best of the best. But alas the baked ziti didn’t hit a home run. Now don’t get me wrong, the baked ziti was yummy but it didn’t rival the baked […]
