Sumac spice that is used in cooking is red, more like a deeper berry color. It comes from sumac berries, which are turned into a coarse powder, sifted, and sold in spice bottles for culinary use....

Indian style salads characteristically are full flavored, refreshing, crunchy, spicy and tangy....

I call this amazing as my daughter who did not eat sauteed broccoli, started eating it after I steamed it in the Instant Pot. This is a great side to eat with some rice or protein. I try to add veggies to our diet where ever possible. This steamed broccoli is a great and quick way to cook up broccoli. Steaming is also the recommended cooking method for broccoli as it helps with better retention of nutrients and does not overcook the broccoli....

How To Get Kids To Eat Lunch Start by having a discussion with them at home and shortlist the foods they would like in their lunch boxes.

Dec 08, 2012 I’m much happier this way. Craving this week: pudding. Homemade. Silky, sweet, creamy, cold pudding. With an ample dollop of whipped cream. And a tiny spoon. I had the most lust-worthy butterscotch pudding at a restaurant in Vancouver (that shall not be named because they refused my ultra-polite request for a recipe in return for a fantastic review) but has since closed their doors (maybe if they’d let me review it!...

There are two secrets to making a salad you’ll actually want to eat. First, you need big flavor and, second, you need texture and lots of it!

My husband tried to warm curry in the microwave the other day and almost lost a limb. But if you have something abundantly bland and starchy, I’ll take two. For example, potatoes in any incarnation – baked, mashed, wedged & baked – are mostly all that I want to eat and have made up many entire meals for me in the past few months....
