poppy fennel seed crackers
these crackers reminded merman of everything bagels so he naturally cured salmon (which is another way to preserving and stretching the goods in your fridge) so that we can enjoy them together like we would with salmon lox bagels. all i have to say is that i fully appreciated the feeling of having a little decadence but in actuality, we were preserving and stretching what we had.

why not spend the time making delicious warm squishy fresh pita bread (that can also be used to make pizza!) for you and the others that you share your home with?
garlic parsley pão de queijo {brazilian cheese bread}

winter burrata salad

recycled rotisserie chicken noodle soup

sheet pan pineapple fried rice
pineapple is my absolute faaaavorite fruit in the whole entire world (peep the pineapple accessory on my dutch oven) and i’m always so delighted when it’s served in a savory way like in chinese/thai fried rice or served as a cold slaw with pulled pork.
wild mushroom jujube risotto
there was a hint of sweetness, a tinge of flavors from home from the soy sauce, and the mushrooms were so so hearty. hudson gobbled it up and it made me so happy to see him eat well.

in any case, making homemade noodles will now be a thing for me. i swear, if i didn’t have a job, i’d probably stay at home and make noodles for all of my friends and family.
lemon poppyseed yeast pancakes
without fail, i’ve been craving pancakes for breakfast every single morning here in paris. it’s been more than two weeks! i thought that i’d revel in all of the wonderful breakfast pastries here in paris, but nope. your girl wants a healthy serving of fluffy and hearty pancakes soaked with maple syrup.
