100 recipes : First Milestone

We officially have 100 recipes on the website. The first of many more milestones I hope. It seemed like it took me forever to get 100 recipes up and running, maybe now the pace will pick up. "Cherry Compote" had the honour of being Recipe No. 100.

I love hunting for unusual and interesting crockery and kitchen utensils. I love colours. Plain old steel or drab white crockery doesn't stir up my creative juices. Unless of course, if they are mixed and teamed up with whimsical and colourful utensils. This weekend I picked up a beautiful olive coloured, enamel colander from the Homewares store. It is bright and quite retro looking. I might start out with some grape photography using the colander.

We recently started a recipe request list at home. My hubby writes down his requests for me to conjure and I write down the names of the dishes I want him to make. I finally got around to making the first request yesterday - "Pan-Fried Momos with Sweet & Spicy Sauce". Originally a Tibetan delicacy, I first tried this version in a small restaurant in Calcutta, India. They pan fried the steamed momos and served it up with a delicious Chinese-style sauce. Although I don't remember the name of the restaurant, the recipe stuck with me. I made it 2-3 times before I was fully satisfied with the result. Now, it is one of my husband's favourites.
