Homemade Chili Sauce (and XO Sauce)


I avoided having spicy foods until I was around 20, and I felt like I missed out a lot. Sometimes I believe it was just in my mind that I couldn't handle spicy foods.

Chicken Liver and Oyster Pate

The other day hubby and I revisited a seafood restaurant that has changed its name and menu. He wasn't a big fan of pate, but he tried one of their hit appetizers with me, the chicken liver and oyster pate, and kept raving about it throughout the meal.

Grilled Steaks

It took me a while to get a hang of grilling steaks. I prefer rib eyes and tenderloins, for they are more tender than striploin or sirloin so even my younger son can enjoy the steaks better. Rib eye has more fat and marble while tenterloin is more lean but it costs more.
