Memories!!!
How wonderful it is to remember your childhood's best dish just by
smelling an herb or a spice!!!
How often do we think of a family meal we had when we were
kids ?? it's a great go back in time experience .. the power of taste or aroma
hidden in your memory box...
Everytime I cook garbenzo beans, I have to have some with cumin olive oil
and salt..best snack that my grandma gave me between meals when I wanted something to eat..
I learned a lot from my grandma and my mom..both were great cooks and wonderful teachers!:

Food is great

I grew up in Algeria North Africa , food is very important in our culture not only we like to cook , we like to eat too.... families there , cook three meals a day from scratch . All the pastas are home made usually by the mother or the grandma . Girls have to learn how to present a table and cook as well....to be continued.....

hello all!!

I would like to hear from you...if you would like to share or get a recipe??

thought of the day

Cooking for yourself is not as satisfying as cooking for loved ones...I love the smell of herbs,the feel of fruits and vegetables , i think about creating a dish everyday ..putting ingredients together is very exiting . Some people think that cooking is very difficult!!! I say not at all , you just have to put an apron on ., get your favorite meat , spices , veggies and start imagining the dish..you will be surprised how happy you are when you tell yourself ....I did try... I hope you will follow me and we can talk and share the mimi's fun of cooking.:)

mimi's cooking

I grew up in Algeria North Africa , we like to cook and also we like to eat...we celebrate everyday by cooking three meals . As a woman , I had to learn how to prepare a meal for a family of six, it didn't take long to understand that following a recipe was not an option .My mother would say ..(look what's in the fridge and make something the family will enjoy)..I think that was the best cooking lessons I had . Cooking is a way of meditation to me , when I am in the kitchen, my worries go away...my heart always warm with good memories . I never say no to hosting a party and most of it because it makes me happy .
