My favorite things to cook
I love, love, love to bake.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Making the best Hungarian goulash ever! Hungarian paprika is essential :)
My cooking triumphs
Honestly, when I learned how to sharpen my own knives properly. It takes more skill than you think, professionals make it look so easy.
My cooking tragedies
My first turkey. I was 20 and I got one with a little popout timer in the breast, it was supposed to tell you when it was done. Well, the stupid thing popped out, I put the turkey on the carving board and proceeded to carve away 'til I saw all the blood pooling at the bottom. Blechhhh!
