pasta

Not my usual style. This is a recipe for left-over roast chicken. A rather creamy affair, although I make it without cream (you could add cream if you wish). The thing which makes the dish for me is the pink peppercorns. You could leave them out, but they do provide a wonderful zingy foil to the...

Whenever there would be a rice shortage, it is understandable for the price of rice to increase. Some wise mothers would then turn to pasta and noodles. I have this notion that the instant noodles in packs came from this occasions that people turn to pasta and noodles when there is a rice...

This weekend we stopped in to Uno's a pizza place and had dinner. I ordered a shrimp pasta dish that was so good. The sauce on the noodles was excellent, it was not creamy and you could not tell there was a sauce until you took a bite. There are a few books out to copy the different recipes...

I came across this recipe on the Huffington post website and soon located the 'original' on the minimalist Baker website. I like it because it is so simple and easy and it is vegan by default. I haven't made too many adjustments to it unlike my normal... Other than cutting back on the amount...

Had you tried eating pasta with kimchi? If you are a lover of korean foods this is just easy and I am always making this recipe. If you are not living in Korea and if there is an Asian store in your place you can buy a ready made kimchi either in a bottle or in a pouch. First melt butter in a...

My personal favorite thing to cook is baked macaroni and cheese. It's easy to make and I think it tastes delicious when it's reheated in the microwave the next day. Plus it's easy to make and filling. I use about a quarter pound or less of the following cheeses. American, cooper sharp and...

I've been given a pasta maker for Christmas. It's an interesting looking gadget, and looks like it could be a lot of fun to make your own pasta. However, can anyone tell me if it's worth all of the effort, because it does seem to take a while to roll it all out to a certain thinness etc...

Mine is often waterlogged, rubbery and on the fat side (probably because I worry too much about under cooking it) - how do you know when it's ready?

I just made a batch of this today, and it is fantastic. http://www.forkknifeswoon.com/food-drink/side-dishes/2013/05/lemony-orzo-pasta-salad-with-cucumber-and-feta/ I didn't have any fresh mint on hand, but that really would have put this over the top. It's a nice change of pace too from the...
