The SEAcrets of cooking.

This appetizing picture was made in The Blue Pig Tavern, Cape May, NJ.
Definitely the best meal I had in the whole trip to the cape (and New Jersey).

Tuna Steak with seaweed salad, wasabi aioli and pickled ginger.

Malbec... oh that precious...

I did this picture in my trip to Cape May, New Jersey.
We bought this bottle that looked pretty interesting.

Broccoli, cauliflower, orange cauliflower & purple cauliflower.

Maybe this picture is far from being art, but I thought that would be nice to play with this colors.



Pan de Muerto, "Bread of the Dead".

The pan de muertos (Spanish for Bread of the dead) (also called pan de los muertos) is a type of bread traditionally baked in Mexico during the weeks leading up to the Dia de los muertos, which is celebrated on November 2. It is a sweetened soft bread shaped like a bun, often decorated with bone-like pieces.


Pan de muerto.


 Pan de muertos is eaten on Día de los Muertos, at the gravesite or altar of the deceased. In some regions it is eaten for months before the official celebration of Dia de los Muertos. In Oaxaca, pan de muertos is the same bread that is usually baked, with the addition of decorations . As part of the celebration, loved ones eat pan de muertos as well as the relative's favorite foods.
