As you may know, or may not know, recently I am tired almost all.the.time. It feels that I don’t have any real control over my body and I never know when it will just refuse cooperation. Regardless of how I feel I need to eat and so soups, stews and such became […]
Sauerkraut soup is another one taken from the sack of my childhood memories. For some reason my mom hasn’t cooked it very often (now when I am thinking about it I need to ask her why?!), but my grandma did and I loved it. It tastes sourly, as you probably guessed, but […]
I am definitely on some type of sentimental-culinary trip to my motherland. Instead of being happy with experimenting with new foods, as I have been until now, I am craving familiar flavors and dishes. Comfort foods from my childhood and such. I am not sure from where it comes, but well, I’ll […]
It is very, very cold out here. Right now it is -2°F, but feels like -24°F. I don’t mind cold, snowy winters much, but I am glad that I have a choice of admiring this winter landscape from the warm inside of my home. Watching falling snowflakes, trees dancing in the wind […]
Recently soups are my favorite dish. Maybe it is because I feel tired most of the time and perspective of cooking is not always as appealing as I would like it to be, or maybe it is just my laziness. Who knows. Regardless, the neat thing about soups is that they can […]
I am, again, behind. Behind everything to tell the truth. It seems that a day doesn’t have enough hours for me, and the baby is not even here yet! If you’re thinking that I must be very busy with preparation and what not, stop. Stop now. It is not happening either. I […]
Another asparagus recipe! My resolution for this spring is to eat more fruits and vegetables. We all know this is healthy and wise thing to do; nevertheless it is often difficult to execute. I think I will choose baby steps approach – one recipe at a time. I like this one very […]
I prepare this stew when I am not in the cooking mood, or when I want something hearty and easy. Nothing can go wrong with this recipe and prep work is short. Just cut the veggies and toss into a pot, and then wait and smell deliciousness. Another nice thing about this dish is that […]
Very important information – when cooking carrot soup choose stock or broth that is light in flavor, if not you will end up like me – carrot soup with tomato aftertaste… not good. Also, be careful who’s around you, if you don’t want to hear comments like “orange juice, really? Maybe you misread something” or […]
Another potato recipe! Recipe for this soup was included in The Best of America’s Test Kitchen (2008) for a reason. It is creamy with small chunks of potato melting in your mouth and mild garlic flavor. Mmmmm….
