Bilbao is home to some of the best food I have ever eaten in my life (I have yet to be disappointed here– something that I cannot apply to all the cities I’ve been to). But sometimes I crave something a little more . . . homey. So when my roommate, P, and I were […]

Since coming home, I’ve been trying to eat healthier. Law school is not conducive to weight loss, and I’ve taken it upon myself to lose some law school flub in the next few weeks. By eating several small meals a day and working out like a madwoman (I played tennis twice yesterday and ran/walked over […]

Oh SNAP!
Sugar snap peas are amazing. I could eat these babies forever and a day. Sugar Snap Pea Stir Fry I get my sugar snap peas from my local Civic Center farmer’s market. To choose good ones, look for bright green pods with firm, unmottled skins. They should not have translucence to their skin- if they […]

Hakka Tofu (客家豆腐)
When I was little, people used to ask me if ate “Chinese Food” at home. I’d recall the radioactive neon orange chicken from the local Chinese food joint and cringe slightly. No, definitely not. I didn’t know what I ate at home, but it wasn’t Chinese. But then I realized that I was wrong. There […]

Tomato Scrambled Eggs (番茄炒蛋): serves 1-2 Ingredients: two large eggs, beaten one medium tomato, de-seeded and diced salt pepper […]

(dedicated to my lil’ bro, Jon, and to “Miguel,” who requested the recipe to the “delicious” broccoli in a previous post) Growing up in my household, we at broccoli nearly every day. It was the same thing, day in and day out; my mother would brighten each dinner table with a large platter of dark […]
