New England cook. Also learned Italian, French, Egyptian, a little Russian, a little Chinese cooking. Love collecting and trying recipes. Homemade tomato sauce, lasagna, steak & potatoes, bread, veggies in cheese sauces and whatnot, fried mushrooms and zucchini, New England boiled dinners, Yankee pot roast, Indian pudding, baked beans, cornbread, pulled pork or beef barbecue, slaws, potato salads, macaroni salads, baked or pan cooked salmon or scrod or haddock, stuffed chops, leg o'lamb, etc etc As a kid when I cooked for my father, he told me everything was delicious. Even the blackened burned cookies which he choked down after breaking them up into a bowl and pouring some milk on them. He never discouraged me, no matter what cooking disaster I presented to him. He always appreciated my effort. He ate all my mistakes and devoured all my successes. He was the best. People devour my lasagna. The usual: my first turkey. Also had a problem with a pressure cooker once, it was pretty ugly.
