Gourmet meals and stories I've created
Chicken Parmigiana, a healthier way ~ nothing fried… Adding the original Puttanesca sauce AKA “lady of the night” keeps the Southern Italian flavor. No anchovies this time.
The origin of this dish is claimed by the Southern regions of Campania and Sicilia… It is a classic Italian dish which is humble by its simplicity.
Mario Puzo, wherever you are in the universe… This one’s for you.
Buona Sera amici.
Quinoa, the magic, complete wholesome grain lives up to its healthy status.
For thousand years, this super seed derived from spinach has been utilized by the Peruvian Incas… At the center, Israeli salad combined with tomato, cucumber, leeks and peppers gives a colorful and appetizing invite. Enjoy!
Butterfly pasta, farfalle or bow – tie is a pasta originated from Modena, a region of Northern Italy. The recipe is made with a combination of pine nuts, sun-dry tomato and herbs.
The province of Modena is also known in culinary for its balsamic vinegar.
The outskirts of Modena is the center of the automotive industry… With the beauties of Ferrari, Lamborghini or a Maserati will guide you to find the perfect & delicious pasta Strichetti. 🙂 Buon appetito!
Indo – European peasants who speaks various Slavic languages of the land created this stew using basic ingredients ~ Paprika, onions and the pungent spice ~ called caraway seeds. In a cold day, Goulash stew is welcome as a “comfort food.”.
Been a foil fencer and, passionate for the three weapons in the sport ~ Aladar Gerevich….. you are requested for your approval. “No gold medals this time.”
Chicken braised with cognac and wine…classic chicken dinner cooked with Chanterelle mushrooms, carrots and leeks. Bon appetit copains…
“If you want things done well, do it yourself” Hope I did!… Welcome to my blog Napoleon Bonaparte!
Delicious Poblano chili peppers stuffed with ground chicken. The smoky flavor takes on the classic chile relleno. These chiles originated in the city of Puebla, a colonial city in central Mexico. My version is a healthier one with a Mexican twist… which I love. Served as a side dish is colorful Couscous ~ North African and Mediterranean grain.
Rick Bayless, your expert opinion is requested. Thanx.
My love for Cabo is in this image… This was a gift during my visit to one of my favorite restaurants ~ kept it as a memory and will reproduce it. A half coconut filled with three different sorbet flavors sitting on a bed of precious Bougainvillea. A piece of art indeed! An experience with Bougainvillea is planting different colors next to each other and watch them as they fuse into beauty. All different colors will start showing as a rainbow of Bougainvillea intertwined.
Always, with warm friendship and thanks to Alex Pancho and @Edithcabo
