I first started cooking with my Mom-mom. She always makes the most delicious traditional hungarian/romanian food. Every recipe I make is to help get myself closer to making those authentic dishes. As of right now, I am the designated "baker" in the family. I'm always the one making birthday cakes, holiday cookies, or any other dessert or baked goods. I also love doing roasts or anything in the oven. However, the stovetop and I are sworn enemies! Haha. I'm always looking for new recipes to keep things exciting.
