About this Cook
I have cooked with my mom as far back as I remember. I have great memories cooking with my grandmothers and great-aunt. They were the greatest cooks. I am a vegetarian, but I enjoy cooking for my family of meat eaters. I am gradually trying to change to healthier and organic foods.
My favorite things to cook
Pizza most of all, enchiladas, tacos, french onion soup, breads, appetizers, chocolate desserts, cookies...
My favorite family cooking traditions
Homemade bread passed down from my Italian great grandmother. Making Christmas cookies with my kids.
My cooking triumphs
I can make a great pizza, better than any you can get from any pizzeria, well, at least most of them.
My cooking tragedies
Trying to make petit fours.

Sue's Hot Fudge Sauce
I really did not like this. I made it exactly as directed. It tasted kind of like burnt plastic. It had to be the evaporated milk in it. I've made a recipe using heavy cream and chopped chocolate and it tasted like hot fudge sauce should taste.

Italian Bread Bowls
These were ok, but I don't think I would make them again. Just not the good rustic bread taste I was hoping for. They're alright for a basic bread bowl, but I'll keep searching for the right one for me.

Baked Potato Soup
This was delicious. My husband went on and on about how good it was. It was exactly the kind of potato soup recipe I was looking for, the perfect creaminess and a good amount of potatoes. I added some chopped celery with the onion and used vegetable broth instead of chicken. I mashed up the potatoes while in the soup a little with a potato masher. I served these in bread bowls and added green onion as a garnish. I will definintely be making this again.
