I love cooking and am blogging about it mostly so I can look back and remember all the different dishes that I've done and the trials and challenges learning new dishes requires. Blogging in and of itself is not the biggest pleasure.
Therefore; I've done a lot of cooking and very little blogging.
In the last few weeks I've made the following Bon Appetit recipes:
- Sausage and Cheese Strata with Sun Dried Tomatoes (pg 28), Excellent
- Smoky Shrimp, Hominy, and Tortilla Soup (pg 94), Very good
- Grilled Shrimp, Corn, and Black Bean Tostada Salad (pg148), Good
- Spring Vegetable Paella (pg 250), Excellent
- Cowboy Steaks with Tomato-Lime Salsa (pg 270), Good
- REd Chili Onion Rings (pg 270), Poor and v. messy to make
- Chicken Normande (pg 352) fair, greasy and bland
- Coconut Layer Cake (pg 537) Very Good
I feel like I've been sticking to recipes I know I will like - I've cooked lots of beef and recipes I've done before. Not many people in the family like seafood, so I don't really go there. I want to try a few more chicken recipes this week and use some veggie recipes - which was part of the reason I bought the Bon Appetit book in the first place.
