I was craving something a little different. I wanted something that really punched up the ginger. And this definitely has a ginger kick. This dish is mostly about prep work. Once the prep is done, the actual cooking time will flash by. So hold on to your butts! Ingredients 4 servings 1.5 pounds of pork…

Tteokbokki Two Ways
You might be wondering, “Currie, what the heck is tteokbokki?” And that’s a good question. Its not very common in the States, but you can find the components to make it in most Asian groceries. It is a delicious street food dish from Korea that combines sweet heat with rice cakes, veggies, and proteins. (For…
As Easy as Peach Pie
This post is inspired by my sister, who bought 25 pounds of peaches. I took a few pounds off her to spread the peach love. We are in high peach season. Let’s use what’s around us! I like crumble pies. I tend to find regular crusted pies boring AF. I need that sweet mix of…
Its Fine Banh Mi!
The Banh Mi is in my top 3 sandwiches of all time. (We can talk superior sandwiches, but that’s another post altogether.) It has perfect textures and quality combination of proteins to veggies. Its savory, sweet, and has a very adjustable spice level. If you have a Vietnamese restaurant anywhere near you, please go get…

Queso Fresco
Whenever I make cheese, I think about what kind of ancient person saw this white gunk in a sheep stomach, and thought, “I should eat that.” Its a good thing they did, but man, talk about a risk! Cheese is, at minimum, a ten thousand year old human tradition. Think about that. What you are…
Roasted Corn Chowda!
It’s time for corn chowda! This is a little different from a majority of most chowders out there, in that there is a minimal amount of cream used. Don’t get me wrong, I love the stuff, but I feel like a lot of chowders lose their potency from overuse of cream. This thiccc soup is…
Traditional Delicious Dutch Baby
How to describe a dutch baby? Its somewhere between a crepe and an omelette. Buttery, crispy, creamy, and light. Its delicate, yet free form. Its elegant, but easy. Its beauty in the moment and gone. Seriously, it deflates in less than a minute. It will still be tasty though. Equipment cast iron skillet whisk medium…
Boozy Blueberry Lime Sauce
Got a sweet tooth? Got a booze… tooth? This is the topper for you. This goes great on pancakes, cheesecake, ice cream, yogurt, dutch babies, anything that can be sauced in a sweet fruity glaze.
