I have a confession to make. Even though I’m a real foodie to the core….I have a dirty secret. I love Shin Ramyun Hot n’ Spicy. This is no ordinary ramen noodle processed food product. It’s shameful deliciousness. It’s Korea’s favorite ramen, and mine too. In fact, the only ramen I would even eat. AndContinue reading “Spicy Noodle Soup”

KKF Green Juice!
In one of my favorite movies, So I Married An Axe Murderer , the main character, Charlie, visits his parents to discover that his mom has purchased a Juice Tiger and “juices everything now” ala the Weekly World News Garth Brooks Juice Diet. While Charlie’s Mom did refer to a tabloid as “the paper” sheContinue reading “KKF Green Juice!”
Pork Belly Euphoria
Pork belly. Also known as pork side or middlen. The most treasured part of any hog purchase because it is used to MAKE BACON. But every now and then you have to try something new. At a recent visit to Restaurant Eugene in Atlanta I had the fried pork belly appetizer with sorghum glaze. UH.MAZE.ING. IContinue reading “Pork Belly Euphoria”
KKF Fast Food: Salmon Patties with Lemon-Thyme Cream
I recently got in on a bulk wild salmon purchase from Lummi Island which included some ground salmon. (You even got a free hat with purchase. Gotta love the freebies.) On nights that I have classes at the gym I need something quick AND I’m a sucker for anything fried in butter, so tonight I tried my handContinue reading “KKF Fast Food: Salmon Patties with Lemon-Thyme Cream”
Sweet n’ Sour Pork Balls
Test subject Bill loves pork, so I’m always looking for new ways to make pork. He also has a tough time swallowing ground beef because of the gristle/connective tissue that’s often a part of beef…but not so much with pork! So ground pork is the convenience food of choice in our house. I was inspiredContinue reading “Sweet n’ Sour Pork Balls”
Creamy Winter Squash Soup
We just got back from vacation. As usual, I am starving for nourishing foods when I got home. Vacation food is delicious, but not always nutritious! I looked around the kitchen and this is what I came up with. Apparently it was good because Test Subject Bill devoured it! 2 medium sized winter squashes, peeled andContinue reading “Creamy Winter Squash Soup”
Independence Day Egg Bash Part II
In my opinion, grilling comes down to a) quality meats and b) proper technique. Although I still consider myself a real beginner at grilling, I am noticing that when I do the least I’m getting the best results. For example, the burgers I grilled today. Ground beef and a homemade rub. That’s it. Granted, theContinue reading “Independence Day Egg Bash Part II”
Independence Day Egg Bash
Grilling out is a sign of independence. Humans. Fire. Meat. Electricity optional. Maybe that’s why it’s so popular to have a cookout on the 4th of July. Maybe it’s because this style of cooking was very popular during the early years of the USA, as it’s easy to feed a large crowd. Whatever the reason,Continue reading “Independence Day Egg Bash”
A Million Ways to Cook with an Egg
When you buy a Big Green Egg, it’s kind of like joining a cult. People who own a Green Egg (or “Eggheads”) become fanatical, notice other Eggheads when they drive or walk by their house, and dancing or jumping ensues just from seeing someone else’s Egg. This month, I joined the Egg Cult. The firstContinue reading “A Million Ways to Cook with an Egg”
Memorial Day Chicken Bacon Salad
Just in time for your holiday weekend (if you’re in the US) a quick and delicious salad to accompany your burgers, steaks, etc. This is a great way to use leftover roast chicken and/or another use for that package of bacon you’re opening for bacon cheeseburgers this weekend. If your spouse permits, adding shallots, onions,Continue reading “Memorial Day Chicken Bacon Salad”
