My favorite things to cook
Well, cakes! I love to decorate them, espcially doing gateaux! But, the savory side if very fun as well... Salmon, steak, chicken, mushrooms (portabello and crimini, pasta, sauces, aromatics, gorgonzola cheese...GARLIC!!!!!!!! Pepper rubs and OH! I just love it!! I'm more of a Italian-American girl when it comes to cooking.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Sweet potato pie that i am trying to perfect! Also our famil'y rolls and my mother au gratin potatoes and her quiche and ribs!
My cooking triumphs
My marinated flank steak for a cooking challenge!!! Yummy!
My cooking tragedies
Well, so many to name! I actually burnt eggs by overscrambling for my boyfriend once...ouch! But i see it as a learning experience!

Fluffy White Frosting
yes!!! this is a wonderful frosting...soon to become one of my staples. When coloring, it comes out with a beautiful shine. For me, i had no cream of tartar so i used a pinch of salt in my egg whites and let it sit in them before i whipped them. The salt or cream of tartar helps to denature the egg whites so you get a better, fluffier result! PERFECT!!!
