This was a delight to make and to eat. Velveting is a wonderful technique and I'm so glad I learned how to do it. If you try it, let me know what you think!

Gochujang, that delicious fermented Korean red chili paste is back. Yeah, a lot of my dishes lately have had it, but I will reiterate that it is my new favorite ingredient. So rich, so versatile, and so good for the gut (since it's fermented). If you try it, please send me a picture and let me know. You can email me or tag me on socials! Slàinte and bon appétit!

Healthy, herby, delicious. I think everything about this could have been with chicken or pork. But, it was fish time and I chose flounder, a wonderfully flaky fish that absorbs flavors well.

From the Home Kitchen: Anthony Bourdain's Vichyssoise

I apologize for the time lapse between meals. I paused for the Super Bowl (both cooking and blogging) and a few other things. So, the background for this post and recipe is listening to a friend of mine, a former French teacher and current French tutor, talk about French things. It made me want “something French.” French cuisine and language are my favorites, and France is my favorite place to…

Tuscani by Sage & Salt: A (Favored) Review

Full disclosure, I had this setting in my draft folder. Birthday, Thanksgiving, off work, etc. No excuses, just reasons. We absolutely loved our time at Tuscani by Sage & Salt. It’s been a bit since I’ve done an “official” restaurant review. For my birthday on November 20, a group of 5 went to enjoy a meal from the town’s newest “fine dining” establishment, one that rose from the ashes of 600°…

This Instant Pot Mahi-Mahi Tomato Stew is the latest recipe that reminds me why choosing nourishing ingredients doesn’t mean sacrificing flavor—in fact, it’s quite the opposite.

From the Home Kitchen: Grilled Chicken with Plum-Gochujang Glaze and Cucumber Salad

In this week’s fantastic offering in the “Tim needs to eat healthier so he can write more blog posts and create more podcasts (and, of course, being a life partner of Stephanie) so he experiments with new recipes” file, I’m offering up something a little different. This is my Grilled Chicken with Plum-Gochujang Glaze and Cucumber Salad. I like sweet heat, but I didn’t know how this would go over.…

From the Home Kitchen: Ginger-Garlic Glazed Salmon with Stir-Fried Bok Choy

Here we are again, friends. Another healthy meal. And, yes… another healthy fish meal. I have really gotten into my fish lately, and because it is really good for me, that’s just a bonus. I’m back to the salmon this week. I wanted something a little more savory with a sweet kick, and that’s what I came up with. I went to the big-box warehouse club with my mother, got some baby bok choy, and…

From the Home Kitchen: Roasted Salmon over Creamy Tomato-Garlic Cavatappi with Sautéed Broccoli

In my latest attempt to create healthier, more flavorful dishes, I decided to use up the last of the dried cavatappi and some of the salmon that I got from the box club warehouse visit. Someone said that pasta seemed like an odd choice with salmon. Well, with fish all together. I said that pasta goes with just about anything. A lot of people eat potatoes with fish. I don’t see a difference…

From the Home Kitchen: Ginger Garlic Tuna & Broccoli Stir-Fry with Gochujang Sesame Drizzle

It has been so long since I’ve posted anything on here, and for that, I truly apologize. Here’s what’s been happening with me: I’ve been swamped, slammed, hella busy. I know everyone says that. Let me explain. I produce around 40-50 podcast episodes each month. I own a radio station, which is luckily run by someone else. I am the sound engineer for the Lewisville-Clemmons Chamber of Commerce, a…
