I will not give up on you tofu!

Updated: May 14, 2010 1:06 pm

How do you get the tofu thing down right? I have taken others advice and drained/frozen/marinated the tofu, but it hasn't turned out good at all! I have grilled, stir fried, and baked it but it tastes horrible. I have had tofu at our local whole foods and at an Asian restaurant and it was… MORE

Spicy Braised Pork Butt

Mar. 18, 2010 4:42 am

Updated: Mar. 19, 2010 7:15 am

Spicy Braised Pork Butt At first blush, the bad reputation pork butt has among the health-conscious seems deserved. It is loaded with fat and connective tissue and most commonly comes in large pieces (6-8 pounds). On the flip side, pork butt, also known as pork shoulder or Bos MORE

As many of you know, The Man and I lived on Grand Cayman for 20 plus years before moving to New Zealand 8 years ago (we met and married there). The Cayman Islands are situated roughly half way between Cuba and Jamaica and it is reflected in the local cuisine. Jamaican… MORE

Updated: Jul. 25, 2010 7:07 pm

Hello everyone,I got something to blog about...we experienced a pretty good shaking this morning at 3:30 am. We quick hopped out of bed and stood in the doorways of our bedroom.

Updated: Mar. 7, 2010 8:44 pm

This blog is dedicated to Ken from CA...this is his Root Beer Pork Chop recipe! As a lot of you know, I don't like pork in any form excepting sausage, ham and bacon. It's been 40+ years and I have despaired from ever finding a pork chop recipe that I actually LIKED! Bob, my husband, however, l MORE

Korea in an RV

Updated: Feb. 26, 2010 1:48 pm

Today, we had Korean for a late lunch...so delicious! I had some preconcieved notion that Korean food was fiery hot, and while I'm sure some dishes are, these were not but they were oh, so good!

In any given restaurant, or food service environment, there is a level of utter chaos that just might Outweigh anything you could imagine. People's tempers, ego's, and emotions are constantly flairing and cooling. It takes a tough skin and strong will to put up with it all (and some would say a… MORE

I have started to read some really great blogs and I am learning so much and getting a wee bit more daring in the kitchen. I had always considered myself to be a pretty cultured cook…well, not really. So many different foods scare the daylights out of me. Let’s see, Indian and Asian food along… MORE
