This recipe can be used in diverse ways, such as a topping, sauce, or salsa on meat or with tortilla chips. I have used it atop my Jamaican Skirt Steak.

Squid/ Calamari is one of my favorite things to eat. Only if it is cooked right. I used to buy squid for my pops a few times a year and he would make a delectable calamari in a tomato sauce. It was so tender and flavorful. Sadly, I never got him to write it down for me, but he did say just cook it a long time. What did that mean?I tried to make it myself a few times, since he passed. They all failed. Too tough. Too fishy. Etc, etc, etc. Finally, my wife suggested that we should just let it cook for a long time. Who am I to say no to my wife and dad?We did just that, with some carrots. Wow! Not what my dad made, but he would have loved it nevertheless.If you like it saucy, then one pound of squid is just find. But if like a touch of sauce, then use two pounds of squid. The carrots may seem to be an odd touch, but they add to the amazing flavor. Hopefully, you will enjoy this as much as we did.Enjoy!

This may be the most awesome dish I've ever made: it's spicy, sweet and tangy. There are quite a few steps and ingredients but it is well worth it. The saffron-berry rice compliments the vegetable sauce perfectly

This chicken and mushroom pasta with creamy parmesan sauce makes a great weeknight meal. It's quick, doesn't require any fancy ingredients, and is totally delicious.

I was looking for a different sauce for my empanadas. I found that in Colombia they make a hogao sauce. I searched for some recipes and then created this one. It is quite good and the sauce can also be used for chips or meats.

I adapted this from an old hot sauce recipe. And made different variations over time. Each batch turns out great.If you want less vinegar taste, use rice or cider vinegar. I suggest using at least half white vinegar regardless... But that's due to the creole in me :-)you can substitute the Tabasco peppers with any pepper of your choice. Just adjust for the heat!Make sure you make this in a well ventilated area, as the fumes can be irritating. Open a window and grab a fan if needed.

Ginger fish sauce is a great sauce for boiled chicken & duck. Also great with sea snails, clams, and squid! So much variation to using this sauce as a dipping sauce, dressing, or just with rice! So easy and delicious!

#august2026These pork chops have been marinated, dusted with a little flour, browned in a pan, and braised in a sauce made with a Merlot wine reduction, porkbroth, tomato sauce, browned onions, and Portobello mushroom stems. They were delicious.You can use the whole mushroom if you like. I used the stems for the sauce and the tops to make stuffed mushrooms.

I made this for dinner tonight. Fancied something with a bit of a different flavour but I didn't know what I wanted so I came up with this one. Smells yummy tastes good. I used a pork loin and cut it into chunks but I found it quite dry so next time I'll use a different cut of meat.

A creamy zesty sauce, made as spicy as you like, it’s great on pasta or as a sauce for meats and seafood

Abundant fresh plums from our neighbors inspired this sauce. Delicious on beef, lamb, pork, or chicken.

There are a number of ways to enjoy white fish, but here's one of our personal favorites with the flavors of ginger, spring onion, soy sauce, and extra virgin olive oil from Spain, of course.
