Creamy pimento cheese tastes just fine. But, if you grate a portion of the cheese and stir it in at the end. You’ll notice a richer cheese flavor with each bite of shaved cheese.

“You don’t just pick up your fork and dig into a brown salad. You have to play around with it for a little while.” Have you ever seen Neil Simon’s classic play Barefoot In The Park? That’s exactly where this sandwich takes me. I’ve been playing around with […]
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.

Guava paste is the secret ingredient behind many of the best Cuban desserts. Sure, guava jelly is an acceptable substitute. But, it’s just not the same thing. Guava paste has a depth, density and complexity that guava jelly never will. For baked goods, that density is the key. Extra moisture […]
If there’s real Cuban bread to be found in Atlanta, we’ve yet to find it. So, what’s the best substitute? We believe it’s the gorgeously fluffy Vietnamese bánh mì. They’re much easier to find. And, they’re available at the incredibly great price of three (or, sometimes even 5) for a […]

There may be instances of desperation here and there. But, there are really only two cookies that I crave on a regular basis that are not homemade. Oreos and Biscoff… Wait, lets be completely honest. Nutter butters would make it a two way tie for second place with Biscoff. And, […]
Traditionally, this is a simple salad of crab, a little chopped onion, cider vinegar and a splash of oil. But, wouldn’t a touch of sugar cane vinegar and coconut milk give this dish some real island flavor? I think so. The touch of natural sweetness from the coconut milk plays […]
Another Year, Another Cold I nipped this one at the first tickle in my throat with oregano oil. It’s not a miracle cure. But, either I’m in better shape this year or it successfully cut the length of this cold in half. As usual, I munched on buttered […]
Happy New Year!! The red tree (above) has finally been packed away for another year. And, the gold bell wreath has been packed away, too. The second will be gone tomorrow. It might seem lazy for our trees to stay up this long. But, there’s a tradition in […] |
