Ingredients: cucumbers, salt, sugar...

"Best stored refrigerated. Purchase already shelled almonds with their skin on which prevents the kernel from drying out and loosing its flavoursome oils. When needed de-skin (blanch) and if required split or sliver them. In the northern Indian state, Jammu and Kashmir, the almond tree is designated as the State tree. A dish called pasanda is a popular..."

Ingredients: almonds, boiling water...

"I decided to post this because none of the other Kim Chi recipes have a key ingredient that all Korean women I know use: pul, or rice water.

Like good..."

"When you dont have time for 'from scratch' cooking and need a great sauce with just a little zip. The list of things you can dip into this sauce is only as limited as your imagination!

"These daikon pickles are a recipe from Barbara Tropp. My daughter #2 loves these. Daughter # 3 prefers an alternate recipe I make.

"I crave sushi a couple of times a week so I bought a sushi maker to cut down on prep time. It's wonderful but I always end up with small pieces of sushi nori left over, they weren't any good for making sushi with so they were being thrown away or munched absently. I came up with this idea after an order from the online grocers and have been..."

Ingredients: nori, coarse sea salt...
