Hi Everyone, You may be surprised to know that I rarely get a chance to eat some of my favourite dishes like fried rice, rice and peas, stewed chicken, potato salad, and chicken salad among other things. How come? Because of my columns.
When I cook, I am often cooking for work – this column and In Good Taste. In order to keep pace with my deadlines, I have to make dishes that count, so, many of my meals are more about what recipe or idea I need to develop, test, re-test, refine, research, or create, and less about what I feel like eating. Let me take you behind the scenes.
The deadline for submission of In Good Taste is on Mondays for publication the coming Sunday and submission for Tastes Like Home is on Thursdays for publication on the coming Saturday. I’m going to focus on Tastes Like Home.
