It came to my realization that I haven’t been posting savory recipes as frequent as I used to be. It’s mainly because the time that I have to cook regular meals is limited with kids around. I’m only allowed to repeat the same dish over and over again unless that specific new recipe is extremely [...]

Paelle with Chorizo and Seafood
I am not a rice person. I love noodle instead. However, I do love “flavored” rice, fried rice, baked rice, risotto……and paella is one of my favorites. This traditional Spanish dish carries bright and colorful presentation, thanks to the fresh seafood and meat. Plus it’s actually not as much work as the lengthy ingredient list [...]

Salmon with Lemon Caper Butter Sauce
Gloomy October has officially started. Actually it’s been hanging over my head since September. In 2 weeks, I will be going back to work, means 1/3 of my day will be spent in my office day-dreaming, making mistakes, feeling miserable, longing to hold and kiss my boy badly! What makes it worse is the terrible [...]

Grilled Salmon with Tartar Sauce
I don’t eat fish. It really disappoints my husband who’s actually a cat that wants to be fed with fish every meal. To avoid my complain, my poor husband usually cooks fish for himself when I’m not at home as I am just too sensitive to any slight smell of it. And basically I would [...]
My craving for white wine continues as temperature keeps surging. To be a bit more refreshing, I was looking into making seafood.From one of my favorite cook books “Jamie’s Italy”, I found this extremely simple and satisfying recipe. In the past, Italian used pangrattato as a substitute for Parmesan as some people couldn’t afford it. [...]
