About this Cook
Yes I am.
My favorite things to cook
Stuff I've never tried before, new recipes with interesting and unique ingredients, exotic dishes with flavours the locals have never fathomed.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Traditions? You mean like superstitions or bass-ackwards methods of accomplishing ordinary, everyday feats? No, I can't say that I have any "traditions"...
My cooking triumphs
Each and every day bestows upon me a series of cooking triumphs!
My cooking tragedies
Sometimes I trust recipes' sodium recommendations and stuff winds up tasting a bit salty. At least I haven't killed anyone with food poisoning though (yet ^_^).

Strawberry Soup a la Kiev
Pretty good, but I really didn't notice much improvement from the simmering. Next time I'll keep a portion uncooked for comparison, as the simmering seemed to kill the wine and flatten the flavor a bit. I also recommend adding another cup of strawberries and chopping a couple cups of them so there's some texture, rather than a straight puree. Might add a bit more wine, too.

Lentil Stuffed Tomatoes
I topped this with feta and it made a very refreshing, 'bright' tasting summer entrée. I will definitely make this again, though next time I'll add a small amount of lamb and maybe some pine nuts.

Mulligatawny Soup I
Yum! A sweet and spicy curry soup with nice texture and appearance which I'll certainly be making again, though with a couple of minor alterations: **Double both the curry (I used mild) and the apple**. Also note that those who don't like curry will absolutely despise this recipe, so be forewarned that there's no point in sharing any with such hopelessly lost souls- take this into consideration when planning your portions. Luckily this soup warms up well though as I've been single-handedly enjoying all 6 of my servings for the past week!
