2099. Pasta Putanesca

There's an interesting story behind the conception of this pasta, but I will let you do your own research if that interests you. What interests me is how the Italians thought of the most pungent ingredients in their repertoire at the time and combined them into a single dish.

2098. Roast Potato Peels

I came across this concept of roasting potato peels instead of tossing them, and I'm so glad I tried it! The strange thing is, most of the nutrition of a potato comes in its skin, yet we're so accustomed to peeling them to keep the dish as monotone as possible.

2097. Roast Chicken Au Poivre

Steak au poivre is a famous French dish, and the American's are exploring cheaper options to good food because their leaders are ceaselessly forcing them through endless economic crises.

2095. Chocolate Espresso 2 Ingredient Mousse

This was fun to make: a two ingredient chocolate mocha "mousse".

2094. Miso Butter Charred Cabbage

Smoky, savoury, and rich with umami - this simple side dish turns humble cabbage into something genuinely special. Charred cabbage is basted in golden miso butter, finished with fresh lime, and brought to life with smoked sea salt.

2093. DIY Cream Cheese

Every day we hear new stories on how kitchen staples are mass manufactured using the most rancid of oils and the worst of chemical preservatives.

2091. Alfredo Pasta with Steak

A rich, delicious, and comforting meal all in one, this is a type of steak and pasta dish I would order out.
