I am a 29 year old high school art teacher living in one of the greatest culinary cities in the world...NYC! When I am not creating masterpieces on canvas I am heating them up on the stove top! Anything Asian! Recently, I have mastered Pad Thai, Vietnamese Pho and summer rolls, sushi, and gyoza! For holidays our family always cooks a huge ham(yum). We dress the ham with pineapple and cloves then baked it. We ALWAYS have homemade coleslaw with it.I know this seems odd but apparently it started with my great grandmother. My grandma says she used pineapple juice instead of vinegar in the coleslaw for that tangy zip and a really rough chop with sweet onions, yellow peppers, and hellmans mayo. Oh, I love it! My first grilling experience was most certainly a tragedy...I pumped the grill up super high, threw on chicken thighs and legs that I had dry rubbed and watched them burn to a crisp. The heat was so high that it charred the outside while the inside was completely raw! Needless to say we ended up ordering take out and my grilling privileges where
