Tteokbokki Au Gratin

My take on the super popular Korean street food. This spicy cheesy rice cake dish will have you sniffling and reaching for the glass of milk (or beer!) while wanting more. Full video recipe after the break.

Homemade Stuffing

Sometimes simple is best. With Thanksgiving around the corner simplicity is greatly appreciated, especially since you have a million other things to cook. This stuffing recipe is easy to make and tastes way better than anything out of the box. Check out the video after the break.

Tomato Basil Focaccia

A interesting twist on the delicious flavourful bread! This one is a great side and will get people coming back for more. Check out the video recipe after the break.

Green Tea Mousse Recipe

A simple delicious mousse recipe with a slight Asian twist. The mellow green tea creates a delicious subtle flavour that goes very well with the creamy mousse. Check out the video recipe after the break.

Capresse Gin Smash

Went to an amazing restaurant with my friends and tried a delicious drink there. This is my tweaked version of it. Mine tastes very similar to a bloody marry or a Caesar cocktail and would be handy to know if you run out of tomato juice. Full recipe (plus video) after the break.

Cranberry Stuffed Turkey Breast

Just in time for Thanksgiving (in Canada anyways)! This recipe is perfect for small families or couples who wants to celebrate this holiday with turkey but doesn’t want to deal with the 3/4 uneaten gigantic bird afterwards.

Ultimate BLT Sandwich Recipe

A bacon lettuce tomato sandwich is a winning combination. But with some small alterations and you can have an amazing (slightly healthier) BLT sandwich that will make your mouth water. A little bit of mashed avocado and garlic can change a lot about a dish. Check out the video recipe after the break.

Homemade Bottle Opener with Catcher

I saw a picture of something like this online, and wanted to make one for my friends. A couple of screws, some drilling, and sanding led to this awesome looking bottle opener with a catcher. The best part is that the catcher can be taken off so you can easily toss the caps away.

Tinga De Pollo

Decided to make something unique so I went for the an obscure recipe I haven’t seen that much of. What I ended up was an amazing spicy, savory chicken dish that tasted delicious. It is also very easy to make and takes very little time, check out the video to see how to make it.

Limoncello Recipe

What do you do when life gives you lemons and vodka? You make yourself some limoncello to enjoy the last bit of summer! This recipe is incredibly simple, but it does take some time and patience. But the result is worth it, this method gives you flavours that you just can’t get with just soaking…

They do require some special equipment and a lot of practice, but once you have those things down it will be worth the effort. Check out the video to learn how to make…

Deviled Eggs Recipe

Deviled eggs is that awesome dish that looks difficult to make, but it is actually incredibly easy. I’ve made this a bunch of times when people are visiting and it never lasts 20 minutes. I think it’s the spicy yolk with the bacon bits that makes these evil eggs so appetizing. Check out the video…
