I admit, the title of this recipe could be more enticing, but this is actually a nice, simple one-dish meal and it makes a lot of food. I’m still really excited about the fact that I can make edible rice without a rice cooker! I know white rice is [...] Typically, this Hawaiian dish is cooked in an underground pit – but since that’s not the most convenient method available to me, I found this recipe that uses an oven. You can use Hawaiian smoked salt, which my parents brought me from Hawaii when they went in April, or [...] Back story: We are moving out of our apartment on Friday. We will be driving to Oregon, spending the holidays with my family, and moving to Thailand on January 6.

I immediately added pulled pork to my list of things to make, but didn’t get around [...] They may not look like much from the outside, but these soft buns filled with smoky-sweet barbecued pork are one of my favorite foods. I fell in love with them in Singapore 12 years ago and have been a huge fan ever since. When we go to dim sum, [...] Char siu pork was like an exciting new taste discovery to me when I was just beginning to cook. I needed some for a recipe, so we went to the Asian grocery store and bought some. I was intrigued by the appearance of the bright red meat, and also by [...] Singapore was the first foreign country I ever visited. My family was living in Australia, but that didn’t really count as foreign, because as my mom liked to say, it was a perfect mix of California and the UK. But Singapore, to my 13-year old eyes, was really foreign. [...] I have made these quite a few times and I love them.
