#3 – How to Grip a Chef’s Knife

This may seem odd, but before you start preparing food in the kitchen, before wielding a knife in your hand… take a moment to ground yourself. Become present and get a grip (pun intended).

For the love of all things adorable and tiny! These cupcakes made me smile every step of the way. The pan, the itty bitty liners, the little cupcake batter balls, and the frosting! We can’t forget the frosting. I was piping and dancing around the kitchen to one of my new Pandora playlists; Fly Me to the Moon Radio. All the songs this list has been playing makes me glide all over the kitchen. So what if it took me three times as long to make them, I was having fun!

Papaya Peppercorns | Black Pepper Replacement

dried-black-pepper-in-shaker-F

Papaya seeds have a very unique flavor, one that you might not expect when coming from a mildly, sweet fruit. It has a peppery, mustard, wasabi taste.  But here’s the inside scoop… the larger the papaya, the sharper and stronger the flavor is. On the flip side, smaller papayas tend to have seeds with a milder taste.
