I'm insanely curious, love to cook, mom of one high energy boy. I keep kosher, with an eye toward using simple ingredients, organic and/or local whenever possible (budget allowing). You will find that I frequently modify recipes to swap out types of meat, change meat-based ingredients to veg-based ones, and swap out dairy. Which substitution I am doing will depend on whether my meal is featuring meat or dairy, or eaten close in time to other meat or dairy. My most common menus will be neither meat nor dairy, or feature a central dish that is one of the two with everything else being "neutral."
I have described my cooking as "painting with taste, smell, texture, and color." I also like low fuss, eclectic dishes from around the world.
