About this Cook
Just a young cook (well, more like baker) looking for more inventive and exciting meals.
My favorite things to cook
Salmon, cakes, cupcakes, and pastas. As I learn how to make more dishes I'm sure the list will grow.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Thanksgiving, where we are each in charge of one dish. I always get the ambrosia, and I love making it!
My cooking triumphs
Garlic Chicken Rollups from a recipe I found here. My boyfriend LOVES them, and we've made them a couple times together!
My cooking tragedies
Attempting to make stuffed peppers from dad's off-the-top-of-his-head recipe over the phone...it was a miserable disaster!

Cheddar Puff Biscuits
Just made these and they need salt. I like bursts of cheese, so used small cubes instead of shredding, but I wouldn't recommend it. The cheese sort of burns. Overall, I was not terribly impressed...

Paella I
This recipe was just ok. It lacked a lot of flavor, which we tried to compensate for by adding our own blend of spices. I would recommend that to anyone trying this. We added cumin, cayenne, and others. We did like the rice though...nice texture.

Butter Chickpea Curry
We've made this several times and its always a hit. Garam Masala was hard to find, but we could definitely tell the difference when it wasn't included. We substituted heavy cream for soy milk and it was just as delicious, although not as thick. It's a tasty veggie dinner that we served with whole wheat couscous or quinoa.
