New York

One of the original Thirteen Colonies, the Empire State borders on two Great Lakes, two Canadian provinces (Ontario and Quebec), and five states. Nothing exemplifies the American "melting pot" like New York City. Immigrants enriched New York with their culinary traditions. Jewish specialties like pastrami and all manner of Italian and Chinese dishes tantalized New Yorkers before gradually being absorbed into the culinary culture of the entire country. Russians, Puerto Ricans, Middle Easterners, Greeks -- the list of those who have added to the flavor of New York City spans the globe. Beyond New York City, rich agricultural land with diary and vegetable farms transitions into lakeside vineyards and orchards, rugged mountain country and the Great Appalachian Valley. New York State’s laudable wine country centers around the Finger Lakes, Long Island, Hudson Valley, and Lake Erie regions. Bagels were brought originally to Buffalo by Poles, where they met up with cream cheese, a New York creation. And, of course, Buffalo, New York, put the “Buffalo” in Buffalo wings.

About me:
 I have turned into a food and photo nut. This past winter I created my own cook book by preparing all my favorite meals, taking a digital picture, and putting the pic and recipe together in an album. Now I have the perfect reference for the meals I make most often and it has been so much fun doing - thanks to Kodak's Easy Share and printer dock! The downside is that I have gained 5 pounds that doesn't seem to want to go away now. All these yummy recipes to make and EAT!!

Mexican Corn on the Cob (Elote)

Reviewed on Jul. 5, 2008 by kvaldez
You can't go wrong with this recipe! After grilling to a light/medium char: I omitted the butter, brushed on some low fat mayo, rolled it in grated pecorino romano cheese (nice and tangy), dashed some chili powder on it and finished it with a squeeze of lime. SO GOOD! This will definitely be on my 'Last Supper' menu...LOL

Red Velvet Cake

Reviewed on Jul. 5, 2008 by Pam from L.I.
Liked the recipe for the cake, moist and tender. Unfortunately I used a frosting from a different Red velvet cake recipe and that was not good...So my so so review is probably because my dessert wasn't "perfect" !Would make the cake again and use frosting in the recipe.
