Clearly she didn’t appreciate it as much as I did. This warm spinach salad is one of her family recipes. The lemony garlicky spinach provides the perfect base for some lovely healthy winter flavors. The bright pomegranate seeds and the toasted walnuts provide flavor and crunch that is perfectly complemented by pieces of pan seared halloom (my addition). For those of you unfamiliar with it Halloom is a salty firm Arab cheese that lends itself well to grilling or searing as the insides melt, but the outside will turn a lovely crispy brown while still holding shape....

When you go to your favorite Japanese restaurants, have you seen Yellowtail Teriyaki on the menu? Probably not since Salmon Teriyaki and Yellowtail Collar (Hamachi Kama) are generally more popular menu items than yellowtail teriyaki. You may be surprised that’s not the case in Japan. Yellowtail Teriyaki, or what we call Buri no Teriyaki (ぶりの照り焼き) in Japanese, is a staple dish in Japan households. Yellowtail – A Fish with Many Names Japanese love seafood, so we can get very detailed with our naming....
Our family took a trip to southern Japan last year and had an amazing time. Even though it’s still Japan, the food, the scenery, and the culture are very different from large cities like Tokyo, Kyoto, or Osaka. We’ve been sharing a travel guide for each location we visited once a week. If you missed our posts for Hiroshima, Miyajima, and Beppu, here are the links to visit the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, Itsukushima Shrine, and the Hells of Beppu....
Creamy Chicken with Mushroom Sauce This Chicken in Creamy Mushroom Sauce really is so craving good, so elegant, yet simple, quick and easy all at the same time AKA you are going to fall in love with this chicken! I actually made this skillet chicken twice in one week – which is quite a rarity being a food blogger because the only time I ever make something twice in such close succession is to either retest/perfect OR because it is so insanely delicious, I just need to relish all the flavors and creaminess one more time, and I need to now....
It’s always good to have homemade sauces around in your kitchen so you don’t end up with the store-bought stuff. Not only you have complete control over the ingredients, but a homemade sauce always tastes so much better. Today I’m sharing my secret magic sauce: the brilliant All-Purpose Miso Sauce. Whether it is to add a little depth or complexity, this miso sauce never fails to jazz up a dish whenever something is amiss....
My favorite Boat Basin memories are the early morning ones - the times where close friends and soon to be friends would show up long before the city was awake to sit on damp plastic chairs, huddling in to ourselves as we held our cups of chai tight and anxiously awaited our halwa puri breakfast. Now we call it halwa puri, but most of the times it was a ‘hold the halwa, bring me puris and aloo chana" breakfast....
Arita ware (有田焼) is well known throughout the pottery world for its refined characteristics and colors. It all started 400 years ago when Yi Sam-Pyeong discovered kaolin at Izumiyama Quarry in Arita. We spent a day discovering various sites around Arita and shopped for ceramic and porcelain to add to our kitchen collection. Ready to join us? Let’s go! Where is Arita Japan Arita is located in northwest Kyushu (Saga Prefecture) just south of Imari....
Tucked away in the heart of Nagoya, Atsuta Jingu is Japan’s second largest shrine, following only the Great Shrine of Ise in Mie Prefecture. Locals affectionately call it Atsuta-San or Atsuta-Sama, and it has been a revered site for over 1,900 years. This serene sanctuary offers a peaceful retreat from the city, filled with sacred artifacts and time-honored ceremonies. It’s the ideal place to experience Japan’s deep cultural heritage. We’ll guide you through everything you can explore at this historic shrine....
Stir Fry the Beef. Add the beef to the hot pan and cook the beef for 2 minutes or to your preference, stirring often. Remove the beef and set aside. We’ve been making a lot of stir fry recipes in the Chili Pepper Madness kitchen as of late. I love a good stir fry for many different reasons. First, they cook up quickly. You can have a stir fry dish cooked up and on the table in 20 minutes, or under 30 minutes if you’re a slow cook like me....
With limited options due to the challenging weather, we decided to visit the Jigoku Hells of Beppu. From the Suginoi Hotel, it was about a 15 minute taxi ride. You can buy a pass that will get you into all 7 Jigoku. We opted to see just the first two on the list below and paid for those entrance fee separately. If you choose to see all 7, it will take a while....
Our family loves visiting Monterey and Carmel, the two charming coastal cities located just a couple of hours south of San Francisco. We’ve made countless trips to the area ever since our kids were young, but whenever our schedule allows, we’re always eager to go back as each visit seems to present new discoveries. From the world-class Monterey Aquarium to the spectacular 17 Mile drive to white sandy beaches, Monterey and Carmel-by-the-Se are really special places for a family weekend getaway....
Izakaya (居酒屋), also known as Japanese gastropubs, are integral to Japanese social life and dining experience. It’s where people gather to unwind for drinks, small plates, and good company. Izakayas encourage a communal dining experience where family, friends, and colleagues share dishes, fostering a sense of togetherness and camaraderie. The izakaya culture has also taken off outside Japan, spreading the love of good food and company. There’s no pressure to drink at an izakaya, so non-drinkers and diners of all ages are welcome!...
The perks about having an ice cream machine is that I get to make “healthier” frozen treats at home using fresh ingredients and it does not take much time at all. With having fresh baked goods around in the kitchen, I often worry about losing control over eating them and end up eating all the cookies or cake on the same day (or in a few hours!). However, with frozen treats, I quickly store it at the bottom of freezer so I forget about it most of the day....

Chicken thighs are delicious and a dark meat alternative to the more traditional chicken breast meal you might be used to. Because they are dark meat, they have a higher fat content, so you’re upping your calorie intake and saturated fat a bit....
California central coast covers a very large area between San Francisco and Los Angeles. It stretches 250 miles from Monterey all the way down to Ventura. Our family has visited San Luis Obispo area in the past but as the central coast continues to grow in popularity, we thought it’s time for us to take a road trip with our pup Miso. Day 1 in California Central Coast It is just slightly over 200 miles from our home to Pismo Beach where our hotel is....
