The Best Enamelware

I get tons of questions about my favourite kitchen goods. In “The Best Series,” I highlight my faves. I LOVE enamelware. It’s durable, classic, easy to clean and super-versatile. You’ll see enamelware pop-up time and time…

Caramelized Shrimp Pizza Recipe

I think pizza is one of those perfect foods. (Along with noodles, potatoes and bread. I’m a carb fiend, what can I say…) I’m pretty sure I could eat pizza every day, especially since it lends itself so nicely to…

Lamb and Peas Lasagna Recipe

I have an obsessive personality, I admit. I’ll binge watch TV shows, speed-read dystopian teen novel series and spend hours googling the heck out of things like different dumpling doughs. And although I find these things immensely interesting…

Egg and Avocado Breakfast Taco Recipe

I like to make up dishes while I’m standing in front of my fridge in my pajamas. As much as I LOVE grocery shopping (I’ve been known to go to the store multiple times in one day) I also fly wildly to…

Sweetened Condensed Milk Recipe

I LOVE sweetened condensed milk. It’s partially nostalgic and partly because it’s just so delicious. How could you not love milk and sugar? I could eat it by the spoonful, but the way I use condensed milk most is in…

Shiitake Quinoa Salad Recipe

I LOVE mushrooms. Mushrooms are pure earthy, umami deliciousness. I just don’t get people who don’t love mushrooms. If you’re a mushroom hater it’s probably because you haven’t found your spirit mushroom cooking method.…

Porchetta Recipe Redux

Guys, it’s been an roller coaster week of firsts for me: first time holding my new baby nephew, first iphone dropped in a sink full of soapy water and…my first cookbook, Easy Gourmet, available for preorder!! I’ve been keeping my…

Shrimp Asparagus Pizza Recipe

How necessary is it for you to be food compatible with your other? Would you break up (okay, too extreme, let’s say fight) with someone over pizza toppings? Would you truly be compatible with someone if they were an…

If you love spice, you’ll love chili crisp! It’s deeply savory, not too spicy, and has little bits of crispy crunchy bits that are incredibly addictive. Anyone who’s tried chili crisp …

Tamagoyaki Sando: Japanese Egg Omelet Sandwich Recipe

Yesterday Mike and I went on a long walk. We just got back from taking the ferry from the Island (we went camping!) and we weren't quite hungry yet so …

Frico Eggs: Crispy Fried Cheesy Eggs

How do you guys like your eggs? When I was little I was a straight-up scrambled egg girl. And no soft slow scramble either – nope, I LOVED those …

Copycat Panda Express Orange Chicken Recipe

I LOVE orange chicken. I know that people don’t think it’s real Chinese food, but it’s actually based on a real Chinese dish, just with a few tweaks: more sugar …

Porchetta Pizza Recipe

I made a batch of no-knead pizza dough the other day and proceeded to go on a pizza making binge. No-knead pizza dough is seriously the BEST. THING. EVER. Seriously, all you do is mix up flour, water, yeast…

Kalbi Baby Back Ribs Recipe

I used to be considered somewhat of a “baby back ribs expert” in my family. Back in high school I had an obsession with barbecue baby back ribs. I didn’t have a DIY smoker or anything like that. Nope,…

Asparagus and Eggs, Two Ways

I’ve been having lots of issues with soft boiled eggs lately. Not the soft-boiling part, but the peeling. It’s strange because (not to be boastful or anything) I never used to have issues peeling eggs. I always wondered what…

Thankful

I was sorting through the recycling on Monday morning when Mike said to me, “Bad news.” I’m not too quick in the mornings so my first thought was, “what?! I broke the Nespresso machine again?! (I’m really bad with…
