Hubers Eat the World

 Lentil soup -- good weather for it. 1/24/21

 In honor of Madame Vice President's heritage, we made a toto cake. 1/20/21

  Chicken schnitzel and buckwheat pilaf. 1/18/21

We spent several hours on our version of the Moroccan classic b'stillas. Filo dough layers wrapped around chicken spiced with ground almonds, cinnamon, ground ginger, and saffron. Sweet and savory, completely one of a kind and out of this world! 1/17/21

This was a pretty boring weeknight chicken dinner. We also had a similar dull Peru chicken dinner which I forgot to photograph.  1/19/21

 Chicken and rice Oh that rice! So similar to the Somali version -- makes sense because the 2 countries are so close. 1/12/21

 Pirozhki (meat stuffed buns) Sour cream went into the dough, which made it soft and lovely.  1/15/21

 French onion soup 1/11/21

 A yeasted cake flavored with mastic and mahleb Disaster. Tasted like a tree and the texture was gummy. Loved the mahleb as it went into the dough, but couldn't really taste it. And the mastic, which I stupidly ground in my blender, is now permanently stuck to the bowl. January 2021

  Balti, a curried chicken pie 1/2/21

Hand pies filled with chicken, apple, onion, and currant. Dry but somewhat addictive. This is the first time I tried vegan pastry and it didn't work great. 1/3/21

We heavily cheated on this one. Andorra is a country that eats a lot of meat and cheese (and presumably dusts all their food with gold). I modified a rabbit dish with chicken. It was pretty dang dull, but, hey, it was dinner. 1/7/21

  Kaukau: roasted sweet potato mixed with ginger, coconut milk, shallot, garlic, cinnamon, and orange juice. Strange! We wanted it to be either sweet or savory, rather than in between. 12/29/20

  Pan bagnat Dressed up tuna sandwich with capers, red onion, cilantro, and olives. 12/22/20

  Pastelon Puerto Rican lasagne -- with plantains instead of pasta.  12/28/20

Chicken Kottu Roti  A stir fry with roti cut into strips as "noodles." Lots of work but we did this one as a family project. 12/27/20
