As stated here, I did do so much cooking and baking over the holiday break. And I have to say, I enjoyed every bit of it.

Perhaps I found my new joy…

I also had time to scope out recipes online, and found it interesting about the creator of the recipe, adding a twist to worldly ingredients, such as this recipe, experimenting with Tahini. A cultural staple in Mediterranean or Middle Eastern cooking. But the recipe called for Tahini mixed with oatmeal, almond flour and chocolate chips.

Never in a million years would the combination have crossed my mind. But I suppose we would need to try it and see how well it all pans out.

Here’s a recipe I actually tried and loved, combining Korean and Mexican cooking. Also since Taco’s are my favorite.

Indonesian style pasta is this recipe…why not?

Let me know if you have a recipe to share, where an international ingredient was used in the most creative or unusual of recipes
