About this Cook
I live with my boyfriend in Queens and use him as my taste tester for all the recipes I find here.
My favorite things to cook
Cake, cookies, fudge, bread, chili, soup, pasta, casseroles
My favorite family cooking traditions
Scrambled eggs on Easter morning, pork chops and sauerkraut at New Year's, freezing hundreds of Christmas cookies and having Christmas in July. My mom taught me the art of a chewy snickerdoodle and how to make a good tomato sauce from scratch.

Chantal's New York Cheesecake
The crust definitely needs about two to three times more butter to make it crusty. I was so afraid to overmix my batter because of all the warnings against it, that I must not have mixed it enough and it didn't set in the middle. I cooked it for an hour at 350 and let it sit in the closed oven for 5 hours, then chilled it, and it still was gooey in the middle. AND it cracked! I'm going to try it again to see if I can make it better.

Simple Delicious Pasta Sauce
I only used 2 garlic cloves, and added Italian seasoning as others suggested. I also used a potato masher to break the tomatoes down into more of a saucy consistency. I added a little chicken broth and reduced the sauce to make it thicker, and threw in a little sugar because I like a sweeter sauce. It was delicious!

Burnt Butter Rice
Yum! This is a great way to make rice. I used brown rice and had to cook it longer, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. The burnt butter really adds a lot of flavor. It is a little greasy but in a good way!
