Delicious desserts

-
Before I show off these two talents… First of all, I really do apologize for not blogging as often as I should for the last 2 months. My schedule has drastically changed and I just had to find time to re organize myself. But I am back to my normal blogging self again                 : - ) Keep posted for daily blogs with recipes, tips and advice.

 Here I have Happiness and Mayela, two blog viewers from California who made a super scrumptious dessert that I had to put it here on my blog…

Since they are close by, I had the privilege to try both desserts and they were unbelievably good. Shame on me ; but I actually couldn't contain myself I had several slices of each one.Happiness made a mouthwatering strawberry cake with a chocolate ganache sauce drizzled nicely on top; while Mayela made the Queen of all desserts mixed into two a nicely carameled flan sitting perfectly on top of a very soft decadent chocolate cake sprinkled with sliced almonds. ( kkkkk…. after eating several pieces of it yesterday, I must confess I snatched a piece packaged it and saved it for me to eat again today. I am eating it right now as I type kkkk… thats so bad but yet this thing is sooooo…. good)( I wish I could have done the same with Happiness' dessert but when I went for more it was all gone kkkk…)


Boy oh' boy, was this good.  Great job Happiness and Mayela, if you can do it anyone can right… But… I'm not going to tell you how to make these two desserts today but keep posted and I will let you know how to make them soon. Also keep posted because later on this week I will be posting up a video of myself, Happiness and Mayela in the kitchen cooking up a storm. You won't want to miss this at all. Lunch, dessert, snacks, tips and more.This is the first time I have ever made a video in the kitchen with my blog viewers. Keep tuned in to my blog for the video before the end of the week.

Do you get a white ooze when cooking Salmon?

-

Does your salmon often look like this when you cook it? Tried baking, frying, poaching it but this stuff keeps coming out? Quick tip: when cooking salmon it is common for a white sort of cream to come oozing out all around the fish. Though it does not affect the taste. It can be found to be annoying and not pretty. But I found the trick to solving this problem, it happens because salmon is an oily fish, there are many oils within the fish itself. When cooking all of these oils come out in the form of this white ooze, normally from my own experience, when this happens the fish tends to become dry. Because now all of that moisture and oils meant to keep the fish succulent and juicy was just taken out. I found a solution to this problem. To keep all the oils locked in, you need to dry out the surface of the fish.  Before seasoning drizzle a little bit of vinegar on the fish and rub it in well. Continue your seasoning process. You will see that your problem will be resolved. ...

Well my mom and grandma were  both born in Furna - Brava, Cape Verde also known for its portuguese name as CaboVerde. A portuguese speaking Island off of the coast of West Africa. Me in CapeVerde In CapeVerde just like in any other Country there are many traditional dishes such as 2 of the main ones. Cuscus - a breakfast bread and Cachupa- a heavy soup for lunch. These are 2 of my favorite Capeverdian foods along with others such as funginho, gigacida, and the list goes on. Cuscus is a breakfast food. For those of you who don't know what it is, its similar to a corn muffin or a corn type of bread. It is made fresh and eaten whilst hot off of the stove spread with loads of butter to melt nicely on top. I love eating this with my favorite rasberry tea. Some of you might hate i...

Ingredients 2 cups hominy corn 1/2 cup evaporated milk 1 1/2 cups coconut milk 1/2 cup water 3/4 cup condensed milk 1/2 cup cornstarch 1/2 tsp nutmeg 2 tsp vanilla extract pinch salt How to make it: Soak hominy corn in water for a few hours or preferably overnight (If you are making this in a rush and don't have time to presoak your hominy corn. No problem it will just take a little longer to cook because soaking softens the corn.) Put your hominy corn in a pot with about 2 1/2 to 3 cups water and boil on medium high heat for about 30 minutes or until they are very soft that you can cut it with a knife or poke it with a fork. and the water is nearly gone Lower your heat to medium low and take half of your coconut milk and mix in the cornstarch to it until smooth. Put that in the pot as well as the rest of your coconut milk. It will automatically thicken your hominy corn mixture now add in nutmeg, vanilla evaporated milk and condensed milk. Bring to a light boil and...
