Recipe: New American BLT with Duck Bacon

BLTs remind me of summers visiting my Grandparents in the Midwest. My Grandpa loved the tomatoes he grew in his backyard; I thought they were okay – better than the ones I was used to from the supermarket – but I was not a tomato person and usually turned them down. I did not understand how he could eat a plate of sliced tomatoes, sprinkled only with salt, with his dinner every night.

The abundance of summer tomatoes also meant BLTs ..read more

Good Luck Foods for Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year, also called the Lunar New Year, is a time to enjoy culinary traditions with friends and family. Many symbolic foods are served to bring luck, wealth and a long life. Tangerines and oranges, for example, are displayed and eaten because the Chinese words for “gold” and “orange” sound alike, while the word for “tangerine” sounds like “luck.” When possible, the leaves are left intact because they symbolize longevity.
