This is possibly the best corned beef that I’ve ever made. How did I do it? There were a couple factors that I believe led to this. First, I sautéed the cabbage separately. This made the cooking day much more enjoyable. The smell of cooking cabbage is not a good […]
The dry version of this dish usually includes deep fried cauliflower florets that are then tossed with the spice paste.

What’s the difference between black bean soup and black beans with rice? Well, for black bean soup you mash a portion of the beans for a rich, thicker soup. That’s about it. All the rest is purely personal.
Inspired by the recipe in Memories of […]

If you’re looking for massive amounts of tomatoes, go with cherries and plums. Without a doubt, this year we harvested more tomatoes than ever before. We picked over 6 baskets (6-8 cups each) of cherry and plum tomatoes alone. We also had the best batch of Black Krim tomatoes with […]

The summer is coming to a close.
So, now’s the time to grab all of the fresh vegetables that you can. We had tons of baby greens, gorgeous tomatoes, radishes, cucumbers, spring onions, cilantro and lime. So, we paired our grilled corn with a big plate of salad […]
