Tamago sando is a classic Japanese egg sandwich made with soft shokupan and a creamy egg filling. My mom often made these sandwiches for our weekend breakfast when I was growing up in Japan and it’s something I made for my children’s lunchboxes too, so it’s a very well loved staple for me. It’s one ... The post Tamago Sando ( Japanese Egg Sandwich) appeared first on Chopstick Chronicles.

Now that we’ve closed the cover on Baking with Dorie, we are full steam ahead on Dorie’s Anytime Cakes. (By the way, if any of you subscribe to Dorie’s newsletter, she gave TWD a super sweet shout-out in the most recent one.) Fall is prime-time baking season, and getting this First-of-Fall Apple Bundt in the oven will make your house smell like a pot of mulled cider. Cinnamon, brown sugar, maple syrup and apples…does it get more cozy? The mixing method is easy and standard, and the Bundt tin…

The best Canadian goose recipe I know that can make hunters think twice about leaving their birds for the cayotes. Smoky, slightly spicy, and aromatic from a crunchy crust of pepper and coriander, goose pastrami is one of the best examples of how brining and smoking can tame meat that can otherwise be too gamey...

I just had my first pomegranate of the season, and I forgot how much I love them.

I reviewed these a long time ago and found the noodle to be very rubbery – low score. More recently, I found them again on discount so I thought I’d give them another try and had the same results. Well, that prompted the owner of the company to reach out and let me know that the one I found at Dollar Tree was not the most recent iteration. He told me the new version is much better and asked if I’d give them a chance for redemption. I don’t like handing out low scores; I like to share the best…

When I initially heard about immi a few years ago I was very curious. A noodle infused with pumpkin seed flour? I want to try that! What followed was disappointment; the noodle was so chewy and rubber band like it squeaked on my teeth. More recently, I saw their product at a Dollar Tree store and decided to give it another try with about the same results. This caught the attention of the founder of the company. He persoinally contacted me and offered to send me the latest iteration of his…

Searching for a sustainable breakfast. Note: all of this is based on my own opinion and internet research. I am not promoting any sort of nutrition/health lifestyle; I'm just trying to find a breakfast option that will work for me. Lately, I've been a bit paranoid about my health. Ok, maybe paranoid is too strong a word, because in the past, my "paranoia" helped me discover myomas on my uterus, amongst other things. So maybe my instincts are onto something. This time, I'm worried I'm…

Rudolf Zimmermann, “Heidelbeeren” (1919.08.11), Deutsche Fotothek There are two ways the universe—and edible plants, in particular—might turn out to be, supposing you didn’t have much experience with it, or them, and were reasoning from first principles. The first way is the one conjured up by recipes that call for “three cloves of garlic.” Have you seen garlic? Its cloves come in radically different sizes. Garlic, as everyone knows, is added to recipes for flavor. If “three cloves of garlic”…

Classique I’ve watched a pile of YouTube videos in search of omelette mastery. I’ve only ever had diner-style omelettes at restaurants, and while I liked them plenty, it turned out that there was a world of omelette-making techniques to explore. The version I love the most bears little resemblance to the diner-style omelette, but that doesn’t dampen my appreciation for the diner-style omelette when I eat at a diner. Rhonda and I met up with Aaron last weekend, and we got to talking about…

Tags: #food #dispatches #portraitsJen, Jan’s friend from way back, served the Taiwanese beef noodle soup into the little upside-down cone-shaped bowls. A piece of beef, a pile of the hand-pulled wheat noodles, ladles of delicious steaming broth, and an offer for a couple of drops of the “super spicy chili crunch”, optional, but recommended. And then, almost forgot, a chopsticks full or two of the sour cabbage topping. These are Jen’s home flavors, and she’s very excited to be having a whole…

Updated September 2026 After spending more than six years cooking every one of Ina Garten’s 1,300-plus recipes, I thought ranking her 13 cookbooks would be the easy part, but, of course, I was wrong. Initially, I planned to rank the books by simply averaging my recipe ratings from each one. But I quickly realized the numbers only tell part of the story. Memories, nostalgia, a book’s structure and theme, and those little things you can’t quite put your finger on all influence why you reach for…

I've been wanting to get back into bread baking again, but haven't had much time for it since I would make it all by hand. The recipe I've used before was for a sifted white flour, which kneading by hand isn't so bad, but it can still be time consuming. Today I'm interested in making whole wheat bread, which includes everything of the wheat berry. I attempted this once before about five years ago and ended up with a dense loaf of bread that wasn't good for much, but this was because I didn't…

Let's get this over with.Anyone paying attention to the speciality beer market in Ireland lately will have noticed that we've picked up a fruit lager habit from the UK. The shelves are awash with them, all 4% ABV and in ranges that seem mostly centred on peach and blood orange. I tried a couple of them during the summer and, unsurprisingly, wasn't very impressed. With so many more to get through, I've decided to do it one post, ripping off the band-aid, so to speak.I started at the O'Hara's…

Orange Creamsicle CocktailA few weeks ago I found myself at a new restaurant (to me) known as Jay Luigi down in South Tampa (SoHo). As I scanned the menu I saw a drink that seemed so unique I hadn't seen it in other places.https://www.jayluigi.com/menus-sohoIt was a Orange Creamsicle alcoholic drink and after enjoying the same flavor ice cream a few months ago I needed to try it. In that moment I was not expecting to go on a journey to recreate it, so I only have a pretty weak photo of my…

Updated October 2026 After spending more than six years cooking every single Ina Garten recipe, I’ve narrowed down the best of the Barefoot Contessa to 50 dishes I think everyone should try. I started by picking my 10 favorite recipes from each of Ina’s first 13 cookbooks, then somehow managed to whittle those 130 dishes down to my 50 favorite Ina Garten recipes. This is by no means a definitive list. My favorites are always changing based on cravings, mood, season, and sometimes revisiting a…

After a discussion with Joel and James, the latter had a bright idea. Guess what? Yet another fun blogging questions challenge. This one, as the title suggests, is about food. If you have a blog, I encourage you to also participate, and notify James when you publish. (And me, too, for I’d love to read it!) And if you don’t yet have a blog…perhaps this is a sign?

Here I am again, another Sunday, another Meals of the Week post. On Sundays I like to share with you, my readers, all of the main meals and menus that my daughter and I have enjoyed over the past week. It is good for me to review what I have eaten and it helps me to plan for the week ahead so that I don't have any repeats.When I was growing up my mother cooked the same things every week, week in and week out. You knew what day of the week it was according to whatever we were having for supper!…

I typically make a pizza on Saturday evenings, I decided to switch it up from the usual tonight and made a pan pizza. My sister gave me this cast iron pan so I decided to use that. I have a bunch of cast iron pans but this one is nice as it doesn’t have a long handle on it. Makes it easy to get into and out of the oven and fits well. Came out really nice, needs a bit more tomato sauce next time. Note tags: kitchen, pizza, athome, cooking

Being as I wrote about cooking the garden yesterday and then James made a food questions challenge I thought I would give it a go. What was your favourite food growing up We used to have these packet-mix veggie burgers that were so good. They stopped making them at least twenty years ago and my whole family are still so sad about it. What is your favourite food that is made locally (In your region/country.)
