I am a real sucker for tiki drinks, and the Blue Hawaii is one of my favorites. It’s relatively simple as far as tiki drinks go, really only requiring one things that you aren’t likely to already have in your regular rotation, blue curacao. This …
I haven’t actually decided on the final order for the sections of the cookbook, so right now we’re just going through in alphabetical order, which means that section number two is Caribbean recipes. Caribbean food is, I think, a deeply underrated collection of cuisines. The …

This summer has been hot, hot hot. Fortunately, I’ve been hard at working making recipes for cocktails that will cool you right down. This month’s recipe round-up features four recipes for ice cold drinks which will make even the hottest days a little bit more …
If I’m being perfectly honest, I hate making salads. Especially in the bus, with our tiny counter and tinier fridge, it is such a hassle. One little bin of greens, enough to have salad with dinner for a few days, takes up about half of our fridge space. And that little bin of greens also mandates a whole host of other vegetables and various accoutrements. or else the salads will be incredibly boring. Then, each evening, you must remove each of these from the fridge, one at a time, and chop up a tiny bit, all to make everyone’s least favorite part of dinner. It’s a real bummer in my book. Too much work and too much space for too dull a dish. But then, what if we were to eschew all those fridge-hogging greens and instead make croutons the base of the salad?
This month’s recipe round-up has some seriously good eats in it. Chorizo sandwiches stuffed with cheese, Spanish-inspired tuna patties with a seriously amazing aioli, a flavor-packed Thai green mango salad, and a light and refreshing ginger-glazed tofu bowl featuring probably the best tofu you’ve ever …

In honor of the end of our 3-month Baja excursion, here are a handful of Mexican and Mexican-fusion recipes that I’ve put together in recent months.
Before crossing the border into Baja this past February, I was nervous that I might have trouble doing my recipe development job down there. For this job I’m given a list of ideas each week from which I select one and pitch a recipe. I then fine-tune and shoot the recipe, write the accompanying blog, and submit the final work. Sometimes there is a lot of room for creative license, and other times the recipe ideas are more specific to particular ingredients or techniques. Continue reading Recipe Round-up (May 2024)
Somehow another month has already passed, which means it’s time for another recipe round-up. This month we have a wide selection of dishes and drinks covering a large swath of world cuisines. Whether it’s the creamy, spicy Panang curry tomato bisque which catches your eye, …
