To say I love Beef Stroganoff is an understatement. When I was a kid, I almost always chose this dish as my dinner on my birthday. I wouldn't turn it down today, either. Why do I love this dish so much? It is creamy, beefy, and filling. I've made many different versions of this dish, [...]
This recipe comes from the former Soviet republic of Georgia. Georgia became independent of the Soviet Union in 1991. There are several different regions with their own unique dishes. One of the most famous Georgian dish is Khachapuri, which is an egg and cheese filled yeast leavened bread. There are many others. If you want [...]
I am ALWAYS looking for new recipes. However, I love it even more if I discover a new way to obtain them. As you probably know by now, I love America's Test Kitchen. Since Christopher Kimball left the show a while back, I never really followed him. That is until now. If you never heard [...]
I will admit this week I chose this recipe because I wanted to do some beef stew and try some more things with my Instant Pot. I managed a solid second try with making almond milk yogurt. Still working on perfecting this. Using whole milk was easy to make yogurt with. Non-dairy milk, not so [...]
It has finally slowed down a bit at work. Now only working one emergency instead of two. Just released guidance here in Michigan regarding Halloween. CDC just did as well.

I saw this recipe demonstrated on Bon Appetit's YouTube page and knew I had to try it. I have more meat to deal with in the freezer, so this was the perfect recipe. I am taking a recipe from Chili Pepper Madness and making some adaptations. This includes making this in a slow cooker. The [...]
I decided to go Tex Mex this week. Chili just sounded good. Not just any chili. Sugar Dish Me came up with a most interesting chili. She made a riff on Chili on Carne. It adds the complex flavors of mole and a bit of sweetness from Kahlua. Kahlua is a coffee liqueur that is [...]
This recipe comes because I bought a full beef brisket to make homemade pastrami. Why am I making homemade pastrami? Because I want to make my favorite sandwich and so far I haven't been able to duplicate it. It 's called the the Tiffany Fweef Salcini from the Laundry. It's simply pastrami, honey mustard, scallion [...]
I was really tired on a Friday night and was vegging out watching YouTube after a long work week. While I was surfing for videos to watch, I caught a Tasty video about African party rice recipes. I love a good rice recipe. I also love a good ethnic recipe. I had never heard of [...]
