#145: Baguette (Clair Obscur: Expedition 33)
When I was planning out recipes for this month, I was really excited to make a recipe for one of my most anticipated games this year. But, when I was playing Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, I couldn’t find any food in the game other than giant pieces of meat for some reason(?), so I was…

#144: Petal Blizzard Layered Salad (Pokemon Sleep)
I was trying to think of different recipes to do for this round of AniMAY and we haven’t really been playing many games recently that have a ton of food to choose from, but I’ve been playing this mobile game called Pokemon Sleep, that has been a fun way to wind down the day feeding…

#143: Pot Pie (Xenoblade Chronicles X)
Another year of AniMAY means that it’s time to create another Xenoblade recipe from scratch and with Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition releasing earlier this year, I thought that we could make something from that game! There’s actually a few recipes to choose from in this game, but I’ve been meaning to make a pot…

#142: Shrimp Cocktail
The first time I had heard about this dish was actually from the animated movie, The Incredibles, when Mr. Incredible is lavished with what I thought was a very fancy meal, but it actually turned out to be quite a cheap and easy thing to make, even from scratch. Of course, you can buy pre-made…

#141: Lomo Saltado
When I was first looking into this recipe, I was surprised to find out that its roots are more Asian than it might seem at first glance. A famous and traditional dish in Peru, Lomo Saltado actually finds its origin from the Chinese immigrants to Peru from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, who…

#140: Takoyaki (たこ焼き)
I’ve been meaning to make this recipe for a while now since it’s one of my favorite appetizers to get at Japanese restaurants as well as from street vendors whenever I visit Japan. Though, with takoyaki requiring special equipment to make, I was putting it off. But with us being a bit adventurous this month,…

#139: Baklava
For our yearly tradition of finding Easter recipes to make, I was trying to think of something that would be a traditional Pascal dish, while also still being in line with our theme and this Eastern European dessert was the perfect choice! Traditionally made for Easter (as well as other holidays), baklava is a sweet,…

#138: Nopales (Cactus) a la Mexicana
Originating from the Americas like almost all cacti, nopales, or the pads of the prickly pear cactus, have been a great and important source of nutrition and have been a culinary staple from the time of the Aztecs to even now. This ingredient is such a great source of vitamins and minerals, as well as…

#137: Cioppino
When I first heard of this dish, much like our previous seafood recipe, I had thought that this was some sort of fancy European soup. But, not only is it not fancy, it’s not even European! Cioppino finds its origins in San Francisco during the 1800s, where Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese fishermen combined whatever they…

#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…
