Entries tagged as holidayWednesday, December 1. 2010A Northwest Costal Thanksgiving Part III: Cioppino I picked cioppino partly because it's a "one pot meal", which is an excellent idea if you're ever cooking a major meal in a rented kitchen with unknown equipment. All I had to bring was a large wide pot, and knives. Continued ...Continue reading "A Northwest Costal Thanksgiving Part III: Cioppino"

Why, sunny Brazil and Spain, of course! First, I was pleasantly surprised to find Brazillian ingredients at Food4Less in Medford, OR. So I was going to do a Brazillian feast. However, then we invited over two new guests, who apparently were not used to "exotic" foods and both Pat and I thought Bahian cuisine might be going a little far.
