We are two students who love food. Cooking has turned into our hobby, and we have fun making what our stomachs command. Thankfully, we both have a palate that is open to all flavors (don’t you feel sorry for those who choose to only eat burgers and fries…or hate seafood…or sigh..let’s not go on), so we are down to try anything and everything. We also love eating out–both fine and ghetto…oh yes, and taking pictures of everything.
The foods we make are all ones that we have tried time and time again with success. Many of the foods are from the ‘source,’ aka. M. O. M. + family + friends, while others stem from inspirations seen on tv, eaten in restaurants, etc.
We have tons of fun doing this, so we hope you guys have just as much fun reading and trying the recipes out as well! Remember, Tasty Meals at Home can be easy and fun to make! Enjoy

Hate seafood?! Now, who would hate seafood? =P.
hahaha YOU DO!
hahaha =D
Followed the bread crumbs back from The Leftover Queen.
While I like sushi and sashimi, I’m dubious about most cooked fish. However I’m from the midwest where in the 50s fish was breaded and found only in the freezer section, which may explain my aversion.
charcuteire: we love sushi and sashimi too–addicted actually. Yes, that may be a reason for your aversion. Now is the time to try again–steamed, fried, stewed! *smile*

Hi guys,
just want to say that you two are awesome. At this very minute I’m in the process of making you kimchi stew with spam…My boyfriend’s mom always makes it for us with pork belly and I love it; but I never tried to make it myself…but with your step by step instructions and photos I’m sure it’ll be a success.
thanks so much.

Hi, while searching through the web for the Lomo saltado recipe and i found your website… OMG i feel so lucky right now because it couldn’t have been easier. I have a very hungry Scotish/Italian husband that loves Spanish food so i will be making lomo saltado tonight… thanks so much!
Happy holidays from NYC
I recently tasted a tasty sweet rice which reminded me a lot of rice cakes. It’s called 찰밥, which if you think of it must mean something like “well being rice”.
I’m trying to make it, but I can’t quite figure out the sweet sticky sauce that holds it all together. I did some reading online which came up with combining coconut milk, a pinch of salt and white sugar. I think I’m confusing this dish with the Thai “sweet rice”.
Have you guys tried it?
It looks like this:

This site btw is entirely Korean.. it probably explains the process, but not in English. Anyway, looking forward to hearing from you guys.
hi daniel!
sorry for the late reply. hm, i think you may be confusing ogok bab with yakshik. ogok bab is not sweet and is considered a well-being substitute to plain white rice. it is made up of healthy grains, beans, and etc. it is also not particularly sticky and there is no special sauce that binds everything together. it is simply just mixed grain rice. yakshik is also a mixed rice, but is very sweet and served along with other rice cake desserts. the link you have provided is of the previous–ogok bab. type up yaksik in wikipedia and there is an example of it.
if you would like, i could try badgering my grandma about this dish as well.
good luck!
either one of you should join the next food network star! it needs a good Asian (esp Chinese) cooking show host, even some candidates who are Asians cook Western food so you have a niche and you both have good looks! thanks for the recipes!
That’s a huge compliment! Thank you so much!:)
