Just a classic case of “Girl meets peas. Girl cooks peas”. One of my compulsive farmer’s market acquisitions buried deep inside our crisper drawer only to be found two weeks later! Next time you’re looking for a quick side dish that doesn’t compose of potatoes and spinach, give this classic [...]]]> http://dhaleb.com/food-type/on-the-side/piselli-al-proscuitto/feed/ 10 http://dhaleb.com/region/italian-region/cacio-pepe-neighborhood/ http://dhaleb.com/region/italian-region/cacio-pepe-neighborhood/#comments Fri, 28 May 2010 17:05:21 +0000 Dhale @ Culinary Musings http://dhaleb.com/?p=1795 Has it really been 23 days since my last post?!? “Bad blogger! Tsk tsk tsk!” (as I scold myself and wiggle my index finger from side to side). It has been quite a frenetic month with packing and moving and unpacking again.

Kiwi was one of them. It was a close call. The day before our early morning flight to Costa Rica, I discovered 5 [...]]]> http://dhaleb.com/food-type/dessert/kiwi-granita/feed/ 26 http://dhaleb.com/region/italian-region/spaghetti-pomodoro/ http://dhaleb.com/region/italian-region/spaghetti-pomodoro/#comments Fri, 29 Jan 2010 04:04:13 +0000 Dhale @ Culinary Musings http://dhaleb.com/?p=1097 I was a young foodie padawan when I started my first job in the restaurant industry. California Pizza Kitchen was my Yoda. For three years, I waited on tables, silently learning and developing my palate. This was my favorite dish, and it was my destiny to conquer it.
