This is a recipe I found in Jorge Jurado's cookbook, Sabores de Panamá. I should tell you it isn't a 'traditional' Panamanian dish, but rather an interpretation by this talented chef utilizing…

In Panama, we prepare rice in many different ways; sometimes with coconut milk, or various beans and peas. Anything you want, really. Two of my favorites are Arroz con Frijoles Negros (rice with black beans) and Arroz con Camarones Secos (rice with dried shrimp).

They're both easy to make and follow the same…

I love learning new things, especially new cooking things. Be it techniques, flavors, ingredients, I love it. The world is so full of delicious and unique goodies, we would need to live several lifetimes in order to appreciate them all.

They say only death and taxes are certain, I think change is too. Change is inevitable, it is…

Admit it. We all have a love affair with fried dough. Doughnuts, beignets, churros, funnel cakes, the little Chinese ones (I don't know the name). I venture to say that every country likely has a version of this marvel. It makes sense, it is mmmm, good!…
