China

What we call “Chinese food” actually describes specialties culled from many regional cuisines. For spicy hot, there’s Sichuan. Subtle sauces characterize Cantonese cooking. Elsewhere, sweet and sour sauces excel. And along the coast, soups and seafood are sublime. Although regional diversity reigns, three ingredients are fundamental to all: ginger, soy sauce and green onions. Chinese cuisine is defined by carefully balanced flavors and time-tested techniques that call for maximal preparation before minimal cooking. Throughout China, ingredients are prepared thoroughly, so food can be eaten with chopsticks and spoons. No fork or knife required.

Greek Pasta Salad I

Reviewed on Nov. 27, 2009 by Cynthia 
This was just okay for me, but other people seemed to like it. A third grader had thirds of it, so I am giving it four stars instead of three.

Alyson's Broccoli Salad

Reviewed on Nov. 27, 2009 by Cynthia 
I took this, along with 2 other dishes to a gathering and this was the most talked about recipe amongst the adults there. Made it the day before. I did add sliced grapes and used crasins. A beautiful, delicious salad.

Downeast Maine Pumpkin Bread

Reviewed on Oct. 26, 2009 by Cynthia 
As if this needed another 5 stars! I subbed Splenda for the sugar since I am diabetic. One loaf, I made as written. To the other two loafs, I added a handful of Craisins, pecans and a tablespoon or so of mini chocolate chips, per my daughter's request. As written, it rates 5+ stars, but we did enjoy our additions a bit more as it took it over the top.
