So it turns out that being an adult is mostly just Googling how to do stuff.

Some things are worth crying (over cutting onions) for. Like preparing for a Mexican meal. Pico de Gallo for carne asada later.

Browned meat and cut up spices. The before photo of the Korean Beef Stew (Filipino version) I cooked today. I got me a new pot—my first Dutch oven. I’m so surprised at how it shaved 30mins off my stewing time! In less than 1.5 hours these beef short ribs were fork tender so yummy! The thick walls of the pot kept the heat very well, and the liquid didn’t evaporate too much (or maybe at all). I was shaking my head in disbelief, telling myself, “Why did I wait so long to get myself one of these pots?!”
From time to time I make this Japanese Spam Spaghetti, a recipe I made out of nowhere (okay maybe thinking about Japanese spaghettis), which my husband still refuses to believe is my own recipe! So here I am sharing this with you. If you stumble upon something pretty similar to this, let me know! Swipe to see the recipe.

Ordered roast pork chops and was expecting some boring fare, but oh my, these are fantastic. I’ve never really experienced pork chops cooked as tender as a medium steak until this. I always say order something you can’t make at home, and this is def one of those. We had a three-course dinner, and the starters and dessert was just ok for me, this main was great! $140pp, I haven’t decided if it was worth it though.
You know what’s something I wish I learned earlier in life? Pat drying fish. Growing up in a fishing town, Navotas, in the Philippines, pan-fried fish was a staple. I had gazillion instances of oil splattering on my arms, face, (depending on what I’m wearing) because I didn’t know better. Thank goodness for the Internet. Pat dry your meats and fish, ladies and gentlemen, if you don’t already know that.
