Living in the mid-west, eating ocean fish is an absolute treat since we don’t get it often.

After standing in line for an hour at the fish market, we snagged a few pounds of this magnificent swordfish.

To prep the steak, Pat the fish dry. Season with salt, pepper, and lemon pepper. Add some lemon juice and some rosemary to finish.

Yum yum

How do you make mouthwatering mussels without over cooking those little tasty morsels?

You need to use the right amount of liquid in order to steam your mollusks just right. Use too much and you’ll end up boiling the meat instead of steaming it.

Pour enough water to cover the bottom of the pot. You can pour white wine, beer, water, fresh lemon juice and butter.

To make a more yummy stock, sauté garlic, rosemary, and lemon juice.

Remember to toss out any unopened shells after you steam them, those little guys have gone bad.

Do onions make you cry? 😥 They make me cry, a whole bunch. Then I think about sad things and I cry like I'm watch sad puppies over a Sarah McLachlan track. 😭 It's awful!

Pro tip: Chill your onions! Put those suckers in the fridge, it will help with the gas that is released from them.

Eat your Veggies! 🥬🥦🍅

This is a common battle cry in our house with three kids.

It tends to calm down when we have a bowl of ginger carrot, or minestrone soup in front of them though....

Could soup be the key to better parenting skills....oh that's doubtful, 🤣.

But it can be quick dinner that has a couple of veggies in there!

Tomatoes and garlic play a big role in soups. Sautéing the garlic just enough so it releases the aromatic smell and the most flavorful taste is a really important part in the process.

Tomatoes can be so versatile in soups, emulsified, stewed, or creating a beautiful base. They also look great in photos.

A little behind the scenes from our first product photo shoot! I love photography and being in a studio. This is a behind the scenes of a photo that Jonathan Conklin was setting up and shooting. Cant wait to show you!
