Getting Started!

My background is Puerto Rican and Irish. This makes for an unusual combination if I do say so myself. Most of my cooking background is very much influenced by the Puerto Rican style of cooking with herbs and spices. Although over the past few years I have ventured to make so many different types of foods.

I decided that since I love to cook I would create a blog to share my recipes that my family has enjoyed over the years. I believe that cooking can be very therapeutic. It has been that way for me over the years. I love to take recipes and tweaking them to create them my own. I do this by adding ingredients or removing them totally from the recipe.

This blog is a way for me to share my love for cooking by helping you to enjoy it also. I love to cook but I also love to keep the dish flavorful and simple!

Tomorrow we begin our journey we need to start with the sofrito!
