About Me
- Nicole
- I'm a former newspaper reporter who is staying home for a while to raise my daughter. I love to cook and recently decided to become more adventurous in the kitchen. I will share my culinary successes and failures with this blog -- and plenty of recipes, too.
My favorite cookbooks
- Fresh from the Vegetarian Slow Cooker (Robin Robertson)
- I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence (Amy Sedaris)
- Lidia's Italy (Lidia Matticchio Bastianich)
- The Tao of Cooking (Sally Pasley)
- The Wellness Kitchen (UC Berkeley)

Fresh Ginger is the first thing that comes to mind.
I like to sneak in where it doesn't "belong", like a Tex/Mex (Chili& Enchiladas), or Cajun dish (Gumbo & Jambalaya).
It adds a rather indefinable heat (out of context, so to speak) that hits a little differently, yet compliments a hot chili pepper heat.
