Risotto is so good. It’s a one-pot meal, The Spicy Honey likes it and well, it seemed like just the thing for dinner tonight. At the store, the shrimp looked great, so the plan came together. Don’t you just love when that happens? Continue reading

I had forgotten about this dish, which makes you wonder what goes on in my head that I could forget something this incredible. This is a rich, relatively easy and supremely delicious dish. It’s the stuff of memories. It is wonderful anytime, but by nature, it is a perfect dish to serve to the special people in your life. Continue reading

We visited Han Restaurant again. Those Hot Pots are addictive, I tell ya’. Well, we had some of the broth leftover and you know how The Goddess loves her leftovers. We decided to “re-purpose” it a bit, so we made a fish stew. Continue reading

With the heat of summer around the corner, and sort of already here in South Florida, (though it is raining today) I decided it was time to make ceviche. Ceviche is probably the quintessential summer (read “hot weather”) dish. But, the thing is, it is barely springtime, so I thought some spring fruit might be a nice addition.

This is, at its heart, the shrimp bisque you’re familiar with. But I was feeling the Carnaval vibe, given the time of year, and the shrimp looked so tasty, so I decided to jazz up the regular old bisque with some Brazilian flavors. It worked. And The Spicy Honey loved it. Lent won’t be all about sacrifice, after all! Continue reading

I know this sounds a tad odd, but you’re going to have to trust me. It is delicious. First, I adore shrimp with pineapple, a citrus and some cilantro…it’s just a good combination. And there was this half can of black beans leftover from a salad, so I thought, “why not?” Continue reading

Risoles (risole is the singular) are one of our best food memories from out time in Brazil. That’s saying something, because there was no shortage of spectacularly good food. Risoles are a form of croquette. They are deep-fried, crispy little bites of heaven. Or about 2-3 bites, usually with a creamy filling; shrimp, hearts of palm, cheese, etc. But they are the stuff of dreams. Continue reading
