Food, its whats for dinner!

As a class assignment I have started this blog.
As a new way to keep track of my favorite receipes I've tried, I'll use it forever.

I am the kind of person who sticks to what they know in the kitchen, fortunately for me, I met a man who has taught me that you can make something from nothing, and its always more fun to take chances. Since meeting him (over a year ago now) I have started to find myself taking more chances and experimenting even more with the different types of flavor combinations within the kitchen. While embarking on this new journey, I thought why not use this blog to share my new creations and exciting experiments with my fellow classmates/instructor?

So then, I will be attempting two or more new receipes each week, here I will post pictures of the finished product, (you'll have to excuse the kitchen in my apartment, its slightly less than fabulous) I will also write detailed explainations for those of you who like me find yourself curious about trying new receipes. After each of those I will give my review, and those of whoever is with me to try it. Most often the name Jeremy will be mentioned as he is my boyfriend who is embarking with me on this adventure for new flavor in our kitchen!

Along side of this blog I have started a list, the list will grow and grow, and I will continue the blog despite the ending of class in July, so feel free to check back in case you are looking for something new. My choices as stated in the description will be from my favorite new experimental way of life - the raw diet, where I will be pulling receipes from websites such as ------>http://www.welikeitraw.com I will also be experimenting with cooking meat differently such as ceviche (which is to chemically cook meat) to flavors from my family's hometown in Trieste Italy with recipes similar to http://www.lidiasitaly.com/ many of my Nonna's(Grandmother) recipes fall slow close to Lidia's I can't help but desire to try some things out...after all its where my family is from! I will also be pulling different recipes off other websites, and blogs such as http://allrecipes.com/ etc, etc.
Other foods I plan to take a chance on are traditional polish foods, and German, Asian, French, Latin, Mid-West (steak and potatoes style) and as many more as I can come up with.

I would also like to mention that there is no limit or particular dish that goes with any particular time of day. That is to say that I am not only trying to dishes for dinner, or for breakfast, or for lunch, some will be snack foods, or special taco-dips that have been passed down in my family for years. Others will include intricate dishes that have a high level of difficulty (those will be interesting I'm sure).

So welcome to curiosity in the kitchen, I hope you enjoy my journey with new flavors and new foods and I hope even more that you will try them with me! If you have any good suggestions please feel free to mention them in an email or in a comment.



until next time!
