My 6-year-old son finished a 4-week swim camp last week and the teacher said he’s ready for a more advanced class when he finished! We didn’t sign up for more swim camp though, and he starts science camp tomorrow. It’ll be the first time for him to eat lunch at school because his kindergarten was half day. I am looking forward to making lunch for him to bring. However, to be completely honest I am a bit nervous if I can wake up early enough to prepare his lunch, not sure exactly what to pack, and worried if he’s going to eat everything I pack in a short lunch break… I’m just a worry bug....

Have chilly spring days? Need a quick soup lunch? This Cabbage and Onsen Tamago Miso Soup is perfect for warmth and coziness. The broth is savory, filled with tender strands of sweet cabbage and anchored by a ‘hot spring’ egg that oozes creaminess, melding beautifully into the soup when you break it open. Certainly not quite the same as the classic miso soup you’re familiar with but more satisfying. Hearty yet light, flavorful yet simple, warming yet uplifting—this soup has everything I crave....

While these harvest berries vary in name from place to place and their type, the most common variety are called “chili peppers”, which themselves vary wildly in shape, size, appearance, flavor and piquancy, or heat.

We’re making Pebre today, my friends, a Chilean condiment made with chili peppers, olive oil, garlic, cilantro and more. It is very fresh and can be used in many different ways, such as a sauce, dipper, spread and more. It is much like Chile’s answer to Mexican pico de gallo. You’ll find this salsa everywhere in Chile, served on a wide variety of dishes, in both homes and restaurants. As with any sort of regional condiment, there are variations from place to place, depending on who is making it, such as the northern Chile version which is more like a sauce....

What is a Chipotle Pepper? Chipotle Peppers are smoked, dried jalapeno peppers. Most jalapenos are sold green. However, as jalapeno peppers age, they turn red on the vine as they fully ripen and eventually begin to dry. These red jalapeño peppers are plucked and smoked for days with soaked wood until dried, turning them into chipotle peppers. It takes about 10 pounds of jalapeno peppers to make 1 pound of chipotle peppers....
