This Month’s Theme: August Appetizers!
#156: Calamari
Calamari is one of my favorite things to eat when I get fried seafood. The crunchy exterior with a chewy, but tender center in a ring shape is just the best when made properly. But often when I order this appetizer at a restaurant, it’s usually lacking in some department. So, I typically pass over… Read More
#157: California Roll
I’ve been meaning to make a sushi recipe for a while now, especially after we made the onigiri recipe a few years ago, and I thought that the California Roll would be the perfect one to start with! The California Roll interestingly has a complicated origin story, with the roll’s invention being disputed, either being… Read More
#106: Deviled Eggs
When I was trying to think of appetizers that weren’t fried for this month’s set, one of the first ones I thought of was deviled eggs. The first time I had tried deviled eggs, I didn’t really like them, but thankfully I tried making them again using my own recipe and I realized just hate… Read More
#104: Spinach Artichoke Dip
As a child, I thought that Spinach Artichoke dip was a really fancy appetizer, mainly because I didn’t really know what an artichoke was and thought it was a luxury ingredient. But in fact, spinach artichoke dip is one of the most popular appetizers throughout all of the US, with many restaurants featuring a dip… Read More
#158: Japanese Ginger Carrot Salad & Miso Soup
When I was thinking about appetizers I wanted to make for this last recipe this go around, I wanted to try to make something that was a bit more of an appetizer for a meal rather than it being an hors d’oeuvre to snack on like our previous recipes this month. And so, after ordering… Read More
#103: Bruschetta
Last year, we made a lot of fried appetizers, which, although they are very tasty, they aren’t the greatest in terms of their nutritional value. So, I thought we could spend some of this month highlighting some of my favorite appetizers for when I want a lighter option. So, for our first recipe for this… Read More

#119: Lobster Butternut Squash Ravioli
I was trying to think of a really special recipe to end this year’s round of Nostalgic November dishes with, and after thinking back on the dishes I’ve enjoyed in the past, this ravioli dish came back to memory after reaching back to my childhood. Specifically, this ravioli dish came from the same restaurant I… Read More
#135: Seafood Paella
This recipe is one that sounds super fancy but is actually super simple to make. When I first heard of Paella, I thought that it was some super fancy Spanish dish, but actually, it originally was a lunchtime meal for Valencian farmers, where they would gather what was available to them around the rice fields,… Read More
#168: Ramen Eggs
For our first nostalgic recipe this time, I wanted to start with a recipe I’ve been meaning to make for a while now. Boiled eggs are one of the first things I learned how to cook as a kid and have remained a favorite snack to make in bulk whenever I have some eggs that… Read More
#114: Creepy Grub Pasta (Spinach & Ricotta-Stuffed Pumpkin Gnocchi in Sage Butter Sauce)
I had seen a recipe for gnocchi a few months ago and I thought the shape looked a lot like a grub, so that gave me an idea to think of a fun recipe to do for spooktob3r. I wasn’t quite sure how to make it look more like a grub, but I wasn’t the… Read More
#155: Baked Brie w/ Fig Jam
When thinking of what appetizers I wanted to make this go around, I wanted to focus on appetizers that were quick to make, but I still wanted the recipe to be something that will impress your party guests more than just cheese and crackers. So, for our first recipe this month, I thought it would… Read More
#162: Roasted Edamame
Just like with last month’s japanese salad and miso soup recipe, for this month’s theme of snacks, I was once again inspired to make this recipe based on the edamame that gets served at a lot of Japanese restaurants. Traditionally, these ones are served boiled and seasoned with some salt. And while that method of… Read More
