Soft Caramel Candies

A 15 minute ordeal where all you have to do is… stir. I’m being serious. If you know how to stir, you know how to make caramels from scratch. They’re truly that simple. And, let me tell ya, homemade caramel candies taste even better than anything you can buy at the store. Especially when you flavor them with vanilla bean and extra sea salt on top. Friends, just check out all those vanilla bean specks!...

Sourdough Cherry Cardamom Cake Nik Sharma Cooks

I’ve always found it interesting that sourdough bread culture is historically popular in countries where the weather is cold like the ones in the Scandinavian region. So when I met Diane Wiese, a matriarch of a prominent fishing family in Cordova, I was fascinated and eager to learn what I could about the local food. We talked about fish (mostly salmon), cooking it, smoking it and among other things, sourdough....

Do you have a tart pan that you’re itching to use? And love pumpkin pie? Do you want to skip the rolling pin? Are you answering these questions? Can you stand on your head? 😉 Let’s make a pumpkin tart this Thanksgiving! Tell Me About This Pumpkin Tart Texture: Since the slices aren’t as thick as traditional pumpkin pie, it’s not quite as custardy.

Thai Red Chicken Curry

I’ve just done a quick count and I’ve found that we’ve got more than 20 curry recipes on Kitchen Sanctuary! I guess I just really like curry. We make curry at home at least once, and usually twice, a week. Quite often we’ll make our own curry paste, but sometimes we’ll use store-bought paste if we’re in a hurry (or just too hungry to wait!). Mae Ploy and Thai Taste (<–affiliate links) are both relatively hot but nicely authentic in flavour....

The Best Mashed Potatoes

I’ve always been a sucker for mashed potatoes. As a kid, whenever it was roast dinner day, I’d ask for a large portion of mashed potatoes and gravy and as little as possible of everything else. [feast_advanced_jump_to] In my university years, I came up with a concoction of mashed potato with cheese, crispy bacon and onion gravy that was my staple food for at least a year. So you can imagine my horror when my daughter Gracey turned out to be a mashed potato hater....

The Flavor Equation Spotlight On Mouthfeel The Flavor Equation Nik Sharma Cooks

MARY: I’ve always had a passion for food and cooking from when I was very young. But my ‘first’ memory of taste didn’t occur until college while taking sensory courses in my food science program at UC Davis. Courses focused on understanding ALL the senses – how they are intertwined, tasting with your retro-nasal, diving into good smells, bad smells, taste, flavor, and aroma. But more importantly, I learned the ‘why’ behind it from a scientific point of view....

The Perfect Dosa Indian At Home Nik Sharma Cooks

While it does require some planning and practice, I promise you will feel the same level of elation once you conquer it. This is one of the Indian dishes that I am particularly proud to learn since my mom couldn’t make them, and we always had to go to restaurants to eat dosas; she now eats the dosas I make at home.

The Perfect Peach Crisp

I originally published this recipe in 2015 and have since added new photos, a video tutorial, and more helpful success tips. I also made a few small tweaks to the recipe, which are reflected in the printable recipe below. This peach crisp combines a mountain of jammy, juicy summer peaches under sweet and crumbly oat streusels. It also requires a mountain of willpower to not eat the entire pan. Trust me, I make this at least 3x each summer and there are never any leftovers....

Zucchini And Cheddar Frittata

Filled with heaps of shredded zucchini and extra-sharp cheddar, this zucchini frittata is good for brunch, dinner, or anytime in between. I always love the idea of a frittata. Within 30 minutes, you can whip up a meal that makes good use of any leftover veggies, meat, or hunks of cheese hiding out in the fridge. But for all their perks, frittatas can often be a bit “meh” — for the same calories, give me a slice of quiche any day!...
