2 dash angostura bitters 2 cl sweet vermouth 4 cl scotch whiskey Prepare by stirring in a glass. You can put cocktail cherries in it. You can drink it after dinner, which can be made with a spiritual aperitif style cocktail or lots of different sweet vermouth, or indeed a vermouth amaro according to our recipe. Equal parts produce a well-balanced drink, but those after a more spiritual cocktail might want to step up the Scotch a bit. Also consider using a single malt Scotch – your choice can dramatically change the profile of this beverage.

Pupusa de Queso Con Loroco ( EL SALVADOR)

Image
Pupusa de queso con loroco is a variation of Salvador cheese pupusa, a thick corn tortilla with a mixture of sticky cheese and finely chopped loroco flower buds. The most traditional type of cheese used for the filling is quesillo, a type of semi-soft feta cheese, but other types of cheese can also be used. Some of the most common on-demand cheese varieties include queso fresco, mozzarella, cottage cheese, or Monterey Jack. The other key ingredient of the filling is loroco, the edible green buds of Fernaldia pandurata, a flowering vine that thrives in Central America. Loroco flower buds can be used fresh, frozen or in brine and give pupaas a unique aroma and taste. Once stuffed, cornbread is usually baked in a skillet or grill until it has dark spots on both sides. Like other types of pupusa, these cheese pupusas are traditionally accompanied by tomato salsa (salsa roja), sauerkraut (Curtisido) and a side of hot pepper sauce. In El Salvador, pupusas are also a popular street snack, oft...

San Sebastian Cheesecake (Basque)

Image
San Sebastian cheesecake, also known as Basque burnt cheesecake or La Viña cheesecake, is a type of cheesecake that has its origins in San Sebastian, Spain. Also known in Basque as simply tarta de queso or gazta tarta. The main features of this cake are the burnt or caramel-like layer formed on it and the soft, slightly moist and creamy consistency on the inside. San Sebastian cheesecake is a simple pie made with plain ingredients. The basic ingredients usually consist of a mixture of cream cheese, sugar, eggs and flour. After these ingredients are thoroughly mixed, they are baked in the oven and caramelized until the upper surface turns a dark brown color. The consistency of this cake is less dense and softer than other types of cheesecake. Unlike its more popular counterparts, this Basque version has no dough. Instead, the middle remains sticky while the outside is cooked at a high temperature leaving it hard, darker, and slightly burnt. San Sebastian cheesecake or Basque burnt chees...

T-BONE STEAK (NYC)

Image
T-bone steak is a special cut of beef obtained from the front of the beef carcass. This cut is called a "T-bone" because of its bone shape. T-bone steak includes two different cuts of meat known as fillet and ribeye (New York strip). These two cuts are separated by a “T” shaped bone in the middle. T-bone steak is usually grilled and contains bits of bone and fat that enhance the flavor of the meat. Due to the thickness and bone structure of a T-bone steak, care must be taken to cook it properly. It is usually cooked over high heat to achieve a good sear on the outside and to the desired temperature on the inside, followed by longer cooking at low heat. T-bone steak is a popular and delicious option for meat lovers. When cooked well, the meat is tender and flavorful. You can serve T-bone steak with a green salad, fried or boiled vegetables, and side dishes such as fried potatoes.  ENJOY YOUR MEAL
