I grew up around food, in between my grandmother's cooking and my uncle's various restaurants.
I also enjoy watching the Food Network, and swear by everything Alton Brown says/does.
This year, my mother decided that I had to cook a meal every Thursday night. I pretty much use only recipes I find on Zaar, because it's so easy and they taste great!
I love to try different foods from around the world and I am always trying new recipes! I am also really interested in historical cooking and I have started a small cookbook collection.
