About this Cook

I love to cook. Have been doing it since I was 10. I like trying new flavors, techniques etc. I have tried cooking almost all cuisines. I must say no matter what you cook..it must have lots of flavor to be delicious.

My favorite things to cook

I love to entertain. So favorite things to cook have to be great dishes that you would wanna feed your friends.

My favorite family cooking traditions

Sitting around and creating dishes together as a family

My cooking triumphs

I am known as Thanksgiving queen. Have been soley responsible for thanksgiving dinner for 10 years...feeding 30 people or more each year.

My cooking tragedies

Once while making a bechamel sauce I added an egg although I tempered the egg...my luck did not turn out well and had scrambled egg in my sauce. Was not a bad dinner =(

Salad with Prosciutto and Caramelized Pears and Walnuts

Good way to change up salad. I tried this with thin cut salami was good. be careful it can get sweet.

Quick and Easy Alfredo Sauce

This is a good for a quick Alfredo but doesn't taste authentic nor like a restaurant, but it is very good. For more flavor I used cayenne pepper and added some fresh basil. I also used half the amount of butter because this recipe is fatty

Banana Pudding Cake

This recipe was some good banana cake recipe. It is very moist and beats banana bread. It did need some more bananas in my opinion. Also maybe add some banana or peanut butter/chocolate icing for more complex flavor instead of just vanilla. Overall pretty good.
