#105: Potato Skins
I was trying to think of some good recipes to do for this month and one of the viewers of the MAX AC Channel reached out and suggested making a recipe for this dish and so here we are. I originally was having difficulty figuring out a way to make this very popular appetizer a… 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
#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
#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

#121: Pfeffernüsse (Peppernut Cookies)
Pfeffernüsse, meaning Peppernuts in German, are small spice cookies originating from Germany that are typically enjoyed during the Christmas season. The name comes, not from it containing nuts, but rather from the addition of ground pepper in the dough, giving it its distinctive peppery-spiced taste, along with each cookie being about the size of a… Read More
#107: Homemade Beef Jerky
One of my favorite things to get on long road trips is beef jerky. The pure protein is a great way to stay energized and satiated on long drives without the sugar crash from other popular convenience store snacks. But, with the high salt content, you might be taking a bit more pit stops than… Read More
#136: Sourdough Bread
Originally, I was planning on making this recipe a lot sooner, as you could see in the background of some of my videos in November, but my starter was being pretty temperamental at the time due to the cold, so I decided to let it develop some more and make the recipe later. Initially, I… Read More
#148: Strawberry Kiwi Smoothie
When I was trying to think of recipes to make this month, one fruit juice flavor combination that I wanted to highlight was the classic Strawberry Kiwi. I remember that when I was younger, I first tried this sweet and sour flavor combination by drinking a whole bunch of Caprisun pouches. In addition to drinking… Read More
#120: Vanillekipferl (Vanilla Crescent Cookies)
Vanillekipferl, or Vanilla Crescent Cookies, are central european vanilla shortbread cookies that are traditionally made during the Christmas season. The origins of this sweet treat comes from Vienna, Austria to celebrate the Holy League’s victory over the Ottoman Empire in 1683 at the battle of Vienna, hence the Turkish crescent moon shape of this pastry.… Read More
#8: Cultists in Robes
So I was at a bookstore a couple of weeks ago, and found this really cool cookbook called the Necronomnomnom. It has a bunch of cool looking recipes inspired by the works of H. P. Lovecraft and I thought that it would be fun to do some of the recipes for the month of October.… Read More
