About this Cook
I am married since 1996, and I have one son.
My favorite things to cook
I love to try new things, but I love the challenge of cooking "with what I have in the cabinet". For that reason I love the "ingredient search" feature of Allrecipes.com.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I am part Slovak, so I love to make pierogies with my mother and sister. They are very time consuming, but well worth the effort!
My cooking triumphs
Pierogies, tabbouli, and great muffins!
My cooking tragedies
Not a great griller!

Apple Pie by Grandma Ople
This was a simple, tasty apple pie recipe. Because Granny Smith's take so long to cook, I partially cooked them in a pot on the stove before I put them in the pie crust. This method produced the best results I have ever had with GS apples, and reduced the oven time.

Blackened Tuna
This was my first attempt at cooking fresh tuna steaks, and it was a huge success. Even the fussy eaters in our home enjoyed it! We follow a low sodium diet, so I used the following recipe to make a sodium free cajun seasoning: 1 Tbsp garlic powder, 1Tbsp onion powder, 2 tsp white pepper, 2 tsp black pepper, 1 1/2 tsp ground cayenne pepper, 2 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp dried oregano. As other reviewers stated, the tuna smokes as it cooks. It also gets quite black, but it is not burned... the blackening adds a delicious grilled flavore to the fish. Great recipe.

Gazpacho
Good recipe... love the tarragon flavor. I used a low sodium tomato juice and omitted the salt... we follow a low sodium diet. Tastes wonderful!
