Time to wrap things up! Homemade Gyoza Wrappers

“Luck is like having a rice dumpling fly into your mouth.” — Japanese Proverb I’m a huge lover of all types of dumplings, especially Japanese gyoza. Living in Japan meant I was able to feed my inner gyoza monster on a regular basis. In our apartment complex in Tokyo we had a little mini supermarket […]

FM’s Jerusalem Salad

After returning home from our local farmer’s market this past Saturday with a market bag full of fresh cucumbers, parsley, and beautiful heirloom tomatoes, I decided it was time to try and come up with a version of the Jerusalem Salad I loved so much at O’Falafel, Etc. Based on watching the salad preparation and […]

FM’s Peanut Butter Cup Cupcakes

After spending so much time dreaming up Cupcake Week earlier this year with Lolly, I’ve been suffering from a very serious disease known as CCW (Cupcake Withdrawal). So when I found out that The Gourmet Girl Magazine was hosting a virtual cupcake crawl this week, I, of course, had to take the necessary course of […]

Tibetan Flatbread, the Perfect Soup Dunking Bread

I am a dunker. How about you? When it comes to eating soup, I have to have something to dunk into the liquid to eat along with it. I love a spongy bread or biscuit that will soak up some of the soup liquid without falling apart. I recently saw an episode of Jacques Pépin's […]

Lately I’ve been craving two of my favorite soups, Butternut Soup and Tom Khai Gai, so I’m sure we’ll be […]

FM’s Creamy Crockpot Chicken

I was thinking about one of our favorite dinners, Mr. Fuji’s Creamy Crockpot Porky Chops, and an idea started to form in my mind. What if I applied some of the same ideas to chicken? Enter FM’s Creamy Crockpot Chicken. Ok, so not as fun sounding as porky chops, but still really yummy, I promise! […]

Red Snapper Tin Foil Dinner

I love a good tin foil dinner (TFD)–meat and veggies wrapped in tin foil and cooked over the hot coals of a campfire. I have some fun memories of making simple meals this way at a girls camp during the summers of my teenage years. There’s something about food cooked over a campfire and eaten […]

Baked Stuffed Kabocha

Marx Foods recently called for entries in their Blogger Recipe Challenge: Game Sausage Edition. I entered an idea for a recipe that would use one of the game sausages from their game sausage sampler, and my idea was picked to be in the challenge! (All of the recipes chosen for the challenge will be spotlighted […]
