Cook the Book: 'Endangered Recipes' by Lari Robling
I loved it when my relatives used to do a blood sausage called morcilla. They look pretty ugly but they tasted so good. I can only find them when I go back home.
Cook the Book: 'Bottega Favorita' by Frank Stitt
Nothing... I cannot make pasta... I need to learn... but I would love homemade raviolis that I can stuff with different mixes.
Cook the Book: 'Serious Barbecue' by Adam Perry Lang
I just slap it down, cook it, eat it... success not quite...
Cook the Book: 'Tacos'
I went to Mexico on a work assignment and had to grab a "quick" lunch before a meeting. The people in the office suggested to walk over to the closest taqueria for quick bite. Once we got there we went to the counter and placed our order. I asked for 2 tacos, thinking of american tacos. My coworkers all laughed and said that no... that I had to have 10 tacos! I was amazed because I could never eat that many. So... they ordered me 5 tacos al pastor and 5 tacos alambre... To my great surprise I was handed what looked like a frisbee with 10 tacos, each no bigger than a half dollar!
My coworkers were right, about 10 mexican tacos equaled an american taco... and they were delicious.
Cook the Book: 'Real Cajun'
Several things such as "rellenos de papa" that my grandma did, "pinon" that my grandfather did, sunday panckakes that my mom did, cuba libres that my dad mixed, and the holiday "lechonada" that my family held at the beach.
Nice memories that are no longer...
Cook the Book: 'The Asian Grill'
I tend to get distracted when grilling as much of the time the food is cooking you do not have to pay attention to it... so I did that and when I remembered that what I was doing was vegetables and not meat it was all carbonized... Now I am no longer allowed to grill vegetables, my husband does ALL the grilling... and I am segregated to just cleanup... NOT FAIR!!!
Cook the Book: ''Wichcraft'
Spanish Serrano Ham with a slice of Manchego cheese, red peppers, tomatoes, capers, spanish onion on a baguette (or how it is called back home, pan sobao).
Cook the Book: 'Urban Italian'
My favorite is eggplant parmesan. The way I cook it is very light.
Cook the Book: 'Beyond the Great Wall'
I traveled to Spain in 1979 with my aunt (who would spent her summers in Madrid). She introduced me to eating tapas at different "bars" around the city in preparation of eating our dinner (around midnight). It was a different kind of eating, bits and pieces with some sort of drink...
I tasted a lot of different "foods" that I would probably never touch again.
Blogwatch: Ricotta Pancakes with Figs
This looks fantastic. I think I better find some figs today...
Cook the Book: 'Kneadlessly Simple'
I like to eat the bread, not bake it as it is always flat and dry when I try. I need to take a class to see what is the secret of baking good bread.
Cook the Book: 'Almost Meatless'
Cheese enchiladas but they are high in cholesterol... and so is another favorite, spinach quiche. So I make a crab, broccoli and egg bake. It is delicious and quick to make.
Cook the Book: The Essence of Chocolate
The most memorable chocolate dessert was the chocalate souffle that my husband and I ate at Morton's restaurant for our anniversary. It was perfect and we both enjoyed it a lot.
Cook the Book: 'Osteria'
When cooking at home I prefer chili (all meat). If it is for lunch (during the week) I like to go to a Pho restaurant.
Cook the Book: 'Baking Unplugged'
When I first started baking I thought that flour was flour. I was making some almond sugar cookies and it required 4 cups of flour. I only had 2 of regular flour. After looking through the pantry I found pancake mix. Well, flour being flour, I though I could use that to complete the 4 cups that I needed. Oh boy.... those were the worst tasting cookies I have ever tried. My family laughed so much that it was years before I baked anything.
Cook the Book: 'The Great Wings Book'
Chips and salsa plus wing (lots of them) is the staple at my house for football games.

Grilling: Pumpkin Ravioli with Brown Butter and Sage Sauce
@Joshua: 2 cans? 15oz or 29 oz?
Grilling: Pumpkin Ravioli with Brown Butter and Sage Sauce
@DrGaellon: I've never worked with the pumpkin puree, but I would guess 2 cans would probably be enough for this recipe.
@vdeliz: Thanks. I'm on the lookout for more recipes as well, I figured I have another month or two until fresh pumpkins are gone for the season.
