Washington DC Metropolitan Area

about me:

I have been cooking since I was three and putting dinner on the table since I was thirteen. I view food as a universal language. A few years ago I attended culinary school to earn my diploma in French Pastry Arts. I am a Graduate of L Academie de Cuisine. Well prepared food is a true joy of life.

favorite foods:

Seafood, fish, chicken, beef, pork chops, ham and bacon. Pasta is a biggie. Must haves are garden fresh fruits and vegetables. I adore frozen treats, French pastry, cakes, cookies, chocolate and pies. I do not care for hot, very spicy or extreme, unique foods. My palate is simple yet profound.

How long may you store sauce in the refrigerator? Is the peanut butter used in place of the peanuts the restaurants sprinkle on top? Because I do not choose tofu, what about shrimp? When would you suggest adding this replacement? Thanks!

I looked closely at the enlarged photo of the pita and it looks so much nicer than the ones I have seen in the store. the recipe is uncomplicated which is a plus and my Joe would love a tuna salad on this bread.

They look yummy and I too liked them when the school cafeteria served them. I do not use peppers so I am wondering how to get much the same kick but without the heat. Any suggestions?

Had to look up elderberry. The appearance is like a blackened blueberry. I bet these would make very good mini mufins and a little buttercream icin on top would be scrumptious.

Michele, This dish looks really interesting. You are going to get me to buy figs for sure. Can the mozzarella balls be purchased at a regular store? (Shout @ Me!)

I like the idea of using sour cream and I wonder if you have ever tried it with lemon juice and zest, or would this change the consistency too much?

Looks like a grand combination of ingredients. I do not partake of squid, but am wondering what crab skulls are.

    My wife is always wanting me to let her cook. She works all day and I work around here all day. Even when my business was at its peak, I still found time to cook, clean, do laundry and attend to the ‘fix-it’ list. That’s also along with rebuilding two bathrooms, a deck and a kitchen. Our agreement is that she can cook on the weekends.

    Last nights dinner was simple but good. Tonight, however, I have an official request; Pizza! My wife has been on a rather strict diet for about 8 months now. She and I both are dying for a pizza. I have been cooking to please her and keep her on track with her diet. So tonight, screw the diet! It’s pizza: A plain pepperoni and cheese for me and a white pizza for her; made from scratch.
