Braised Pork Anise
It’s been a while since I first cooked this dish and have since cooked it a few more times. It’s fast becoming a regular dish in our kitchen, thanks to Thess at Eet Smakelijk who shared the recipe.

Braised and Roasted Pork Belly
I get very excited when coincidences fall in place. I get excited by pork belly too, so can you just imagine how giddy I got when this morning, as I was getting ready to make this post and was checking emails, I run across this ode to the belly? If you believe in signs as…
The Best Way to Cook Bacon
Bacon is one of our favorite breakfast items and we’ve had a love/hate relationship with it over the years.
