Smoked Pork Loin by Mark Estee

Lamb Risotto by Mary Joseph

I want to call this a "Lebanese Risotto" because I used a lot of the spices and ingredients that are in a lot of the recipes I grew up cooking. So needless to say this would go great with a nice fatoush salad or a tomato & cucumber salad with a side of Hummus and pita bread.

Waikiki Meatballs by Angel Ahsam

When I was 10 or 11, my mom let me join the Betty Crocker Recipe club - I was a budding cook then. This was one of our favorites and when I dug out the recipe recently to make with my daughter's help, we had a lot to talk about. It's a yummy not too sweet, not too sour, dish. With salad and steamed rice, it's a pleaser for kids and…

If it was served for breakfast, we would have taken them out for Yu Sang…

TUNA WITH AVOCADO, LIME AND TWO TYPES OF CILANTRO by Linda Tay Esposito

Cilantro or coriander, depending on where you come from, is perhaps the world's most widely consumed herb. Cilantro is used in cuisines from Latin America to across Asia. I refer the seed of the plant, the spice, coriander and plant itself, cilantro. You can use the stem and the leaves. In this Asian Fusion recipe, we combine the…

MALAYSIAN CURRY POWDER by Linda Tay Esposito

I re-created this recipe based on the memory of smell (oui, Rémy!) of the aroma in my late grandmother's house as she roasted curry powder. My grandmother roasted curry powder in a wok 1-yard in diameter, over a charcoal stove, and had all of us - her grandkids - tightly packed the spice mix into recycled glass ketchup bottles which…

Butter Lettuce & Fig Salad with Bacon and blue Cheese by Aspen Lee-Moulden
