Simple Cuban Black Beans & Rice in a Rice Cooker

Simple Cuban Black Beans & Rice in a Rice Cooker by John Spottiswood

I've loved cuban black beans and rice ever since I lived in Weehawken, New Jersey and ate at the Unica Cafe. This recipe takes some short cuts and uses a rice cooker, but I still think the results are delicious. Try this under any caribbean grilled meat, fish or stew and you won't be disappointed!

Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade

Cuban-style Steaks in Garlic-Lime Marinade by John Spottiswood

These steaks are a treat and a great way to make an inexpensive cut of meat memorable. You can use bottom round (best), top round, or a thin cut sirloin for this dish. The steaks should be cut about a 1/2 thick. Mine were a little thicker, so I pounded them with a mallet to thin them. In Cuban restaurants, this recipe is called…

Grammy's Oil Pastry (from Betty Crocker)

Grammy's Oil Pastry (from Betty Crocker) by Victoria Prehn

My recipe seems to be a bit modified from others I see on-line. The quantities I use are for a double crust, but for me, it's always been the perfect amount to make just one crust, plus a little extra. Grammy always used the extra to make cinnamon crust rolls for us kids upon arrival (dough with butter, cinnamon and sugar)

Okinawan Sweet Fritters

Okinawan Sweet Fritters by Tamara Daugherty

I grew up loving this delicate treat, both from the market in Okinawa (watching elderly women fry these up in giant cast iron pots) and made at home by my "Oba-ason" (Okinawan grandmother)". I use to wait for these little doughnuts to float on top in her pot over a wood-fed fire. (we never had a stove). Similar to the American version…

Extra Crispy Baked French Fries

Extra Crispy Baked French Fries by jason kim

We experimented with things overdue (but still edible of course) in our pantry when deciding what to give the kids for their afternoon snack. Upon finding a large bag of potatoes and panko bread crumbs, we thought something in the form of french fries would work with this combination. We usually use the bread crumbs when making…

Cranberry, Kale and Cornbread Dressing

Cranberry, Kale and Cornbread Dressing by Robyn Savoie

This dressing is so good and pretty that you will want to make it again and again, even if it isn't Thanksgiving. Cranberry, Kale and Corn Bead Dressing is also great as a side dish for roasted chicken, duck and pork. Make this dressing with homemade or purchased day old corn bread, or use packaged corn bread stuffing mix.

Buttermilk Banana Bread by Nancy Miyasaki

I've made dozens of different types of banana bread, and this is one of my favorites. Our kids devoured it! My oldest told me "this is the best banana bread you've ever made, Mom." That's high praise from a 9th grader!

BASBOUSSA (SEMOLINA CAKE) by MARIA LOURDES V. LIPARDO-AYUB

This is my favourite Egyptian pastry. I tried many recipes but I finally found the best one. An Indonesian chef, who's working in the palace of a Prince in Riyadh, gave me an idea how to make it. I made this recipe and tried it. Excellent!!!
