South-Eastern Asia

The many ethnicities, religions, and geographical elements that comprise Southeast Asia make for cuisine that’s extremely diverse region to region. Aside from unifying flavors like chili, ginger, and coconut, and a heavy reliance on the area’s bountiful seafood, it’s difficult to make sweeping generalizations about Southeast Asian cuisine. The regional fare of both Cambodia and Thailand, though, are not dissimilar. Both commonly employ ingredients like coconut milk, lemon grass, and fish sauce or fish paste to make exceptionally flavorful dishes, with variations of curry common in both countries. And, in Singapore and Malaysia, the distinctive Nyonya cuisine is popular. A blend of Chinese ingredients and South East Asian spices like lemon grass and turmeric, Nyonya food is a product of both nations’ Peranakan populations. Due to their large Muslim populations, pork is uncommon in both Malaysia and Indonesia.

Vanilla Winter White Russian

This is exactly what i was looking for. A rich, creamy, cold drink for a summers evening. Top it off with whip cream and chocolate and its perfection!

Easy Apple Cinnamon Muffins

Reviewed on Sep. 3, 2008 by Fawn

My 3 year old daughter requested Apple Muffins, so I tried this recipe. She loved it!!! I loved the chunks of apple. As with most reviewers, I didn't fill to the top of the cups, only 3/4. That was perfect. Also, the batter seemed dry so I squeezed the juice of one orange into it. Added some vanilla. Used 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar. And I didn't bother with the topping. The next day I didn't have enough apples, so I used canned peaches. That was nice too.
