I have always had a passion for cooking. As long as I have my favourite sharp knife, I am willing to try anything...at least twice (re-try in case the first time was a flop)!
My favorite family cooking traditions
Jiggs Dinner: A traditional dish from Newfoundland that is usually made on Sundays and Holidays.
The meal typically consists of a combination of pickled salt beef (or salt riblets), boiled potatoes, carrots, cabbage, turnip, turnip greens, bread pudding, dressing, pease pudding, Yorkshire pudding, and a cooked turkey, chicken or beef roast. Condiments sometimes include mustard pickles, pickled beets, cranberry sauce and butter.
The leftover vegetables from Jiggs dinner are often mixed into a pan and fried to make a dish known as "cabbage hash" or "corned beef and cabbage hash."
My cooking tragedies
oh boy. There isn't enough room here. But I believe that every good cook will have their fair share of tragedies before they are triumphant!
