Keeping Kitchen- Pickled Onions and Fish

Keeping Kitchen- Pickled Onions and Fish

From Over the Tuscan Stove, 4 days ago, Similar articles

I am leaving for a week in Sicily ( I know, poor me) and leave the pantry full for my husband when I go away for any length of time. I had already made some pulled pork a week or so ago and found some lovely sweet red onions at the market and could'd resist making some pickled Mexican onions for garnish for the pulled pork. Mexican Pickled Onions I used something similar to this recipe-  but.... Instead of parboiling the onions, since they are so sweet, I just lightly salt to pull...

From Let's go away for a while..., 4 days ago, Similar articles

We never planned on living in Utah ever. Stuart has always had a strong opinion not really based on anything particular when it's come to that opinion but it goes like this "people in Utah are the worst drivers!", "Utah is too dry!", "Utah mormon's are so weird." It goes on and on...Last night we found a listing on KSL for a great looking little home. Stuart emailed the landlord and we heard back pretty quickly that the contract for the place had just been signed. Lame. It's fun looking at...

From Susu' World, 5 days ago, Similar articles

What is this blog about' Initially it was to document my love for Paris. Then it became about my fall for fashion. Along the journey – unfortunately -  you also saw me get sick with anorexia, or scarily close to it. Melt, shrink, lessen… whatever you want to call it. Now it is about sharing what I love. Fashion along other delights. Me trying to find my way in my fourth country – Canada. After Finland, the USA and France, a new adventure. I’m still trying to get...

Foodie Review: Vittoria Trattoria

From Correr Es Mi Destino, 5 days ago, Similar articles

Apple Crumble and Cinnamon Ice Cream I usually avoid eating in the Byward Market because some of Ottawa's worse restaurants operate there, and because food can be pricey and mediocre. I always feel for tourists who end up there and pay big bucks for bad food. But sometimes, there are nice surprises. One of my foodie friends and I hesitated forever before heading to the Byward Market. She had been to Vittoria Trattoria before and had liked it. I was in the mood for pizza, but not the Pizza...

The Remains of the Déjeuner

From The Bold Soul, 5 days ago, Similar articles

Finally having time to explore our new quartier this weekend, we stumbled on this restaurant ("Le Mansart") on a side street between Blanche and Pigalle, and decided to have lunch. I had an amazing salad with lemon-marinated chicken, fresh melon and Parmesan. Apparently, they do a brunch (with mimosas!) on Sundays so we'll have to come back some time. And they have foosball, so what's not to love'

From New Life in KL!, 6 days ago, Similar articles

Quick review on a new place at Publika. Plus points- love the chocolate cappuccino- tiramisu yummy- pasta (seafood pasta and the other one with mushroom cream) both were yummy and tasty and unexpected for a small restaurant like theirs - hubby loved the cod fish order Bad points- food portion were small!!! All 5 adults with me at that time (last Sunday lunch time) had the same conclusion... Food was small, we needed to order dessert to fill the "gap"- hubby said his dish was small, so small...

Canteen classics: Solyanka, Estonian style

From Nami-nami, 6 days ago, Similar articles

(This recipe was originally posted in December 2006. Fully updated in May 2012).   Here's a recipe for a soup that must have frequently featured in one disguise or another in every single canteen and many households across the former Soviet empire: solyanka (see also this informative article about Russian soups). A hearty soup originally from Russia and Ukraine that can be just as humble or elegant as you want. If you're a flashy Slav, you use seven types of meat (incl. kidneys) and...

Final Push: Marshall, TX to Home Sweet Home Pensacola

From Here There and Everywhere, 1 weeks ago, Similar articles

AdventureMan looked at the map. We had thought we would stop somewhere in Louisiana today, spend the night, but . . . you get this close, and with just a little effort, we could be home. We could pick up the Qatari Cat. We could have dinner with our son and his wife and our sweet little grandson . . . We smile at each other, and head home. We stop for gas in Jackson, Mississippi, and find a family run BBQ nearby, where lunch is quick, and delicious, and we are back on the road in no time....

The Curse of the Lemon Moon - Lemon and Rosemary Pannacotta

From Lucullian Delights, 1 weeks ago, Similar articles

   Lemon and rosemary is an unbeatable combination be it in savoury dishes or sweet ones, I never tire of those two and together they sparkle!  OK, maybe I am exaggerating a little but it is a great combination, you have to agree with me on that. I used to have lemon trees in vases because I like to make my own Limoncello but lately they don't seem to agree with me; the best one I had
