Thai Basil: Take Root

We bought some Thai basil from Amazon because we needed it for the “Poe Boy” sandwich recipe and since we had a bunch leftover, we decided to plant it! This is part 1, there will be more Thai basil updates to come! Sub to my YouTube channel to get notified whenever we have new videos!

Triangle Kappa Maki

Kazari sushi, attempt number two! I’m trying to shape it into a triangle this time, and you know, this is a lot harder than it looks. This is why, on social media and everywhere, I’m always pushing the idea of making and sharing your “shitty art”. It would be super easy to just get frustrated

Square Kappa Maki

I just can’t get away from sushi. Every time I start a new project, it always comes back to sushi. So… uh… heh. We’re doing sushi again. This time around, my husband had the idea to do kazari sushi. This is the kind of sushi where it’s rolled so that when you slice it, you

Magnolia Bakery’s Banana Pudding

A sweet, fluffy vanilla pudding, layered with Nilla wafers and banana slices – we’re making Magnolia Bakery’s banana pudding today! Son and I love traveling. We love going to new places, exploring new cities, trying new foods. We’re just very bad at it. There have been numerous occasions where we’ve gone to a new place,

As you saw, we attempted bread last week! And then had a lot of bread to eat, so we just had to eat it Vietnamese breakfast-style at least once. French bread, fried, egg, maggi sauce. We skipped the coffee this time, but I’d typically (happily) eat this with a nice strong ca phe sua da

NOLA-Style French Bread

We’ve got some po boy sandwiches coming up, so I thought I’d try my hand at making traditional NOLA-style french bread! These were the two recipes I tried: King Arthur Baking Saveur Both were tasty, although the Saveur bread fell quite a bit. We ended up greatly preferring the King Arthur recipe! Sub to my
