About this Cook
I'm a mom with 2 grown kids,I work as a freelance translator,and love to cook as an expert hobby for my family; love doing tapestry and reading.
My favorite things to cook
Risotos, pastas, baking and desserts.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Passover meals that I learned from a dear aunt, making potato salad from scratch, and choosing weekend menus for my husband to cook.
My cooking triumphs
A very good potato salad that I simply have to make for the family whenever I go visit my sister in the USA, and a great condensed milk puding.
My cooking tragedies
I have been trying to come up with new recipes, and my fishcake simply was rotten...too salty, to blah.....
