I love cooking and eating and I taste everything. I began learning to cook a few years ago so that I could take my favorite foods with me wherever I go. Now, I cook because it brings my family and me joy. We have adventurous paletes and I love introducing my kids to new flavors and experiences.
My favorite things to cook
Any foods that can be cooked with a class of wine in hand are my favorite dishes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Every night we try to sit down as a family to eat dinner and I try to make foods that make every night special and delicious. Some of our favorite food holidays are Thanksgiving (of course), St. Patrick’s Day, Anniversaries,and Christmas
My cooking triumphs
Mastering homemade lobster bisque (my husbands favorite) was a major cooking turning point for me because it gave me the confidence to attempt more gourmet recipes. On the flip side learning that simply baking and pureeing sweet potatoes was a delicious way to feed my son when he was a baby reminded me that simple is often best.
My cooking tragedies
Bread…most of my breads with the exception of simple beer breads have been well less than awesome.
