This type of potato salad uses Japanese mayonnaise which is richer and more savory than the American mayo which is sweet.

Gazpacho is a cold soup enjoyed in the summer with origins that trace back to Spain. I had a large supply of fresh peaches from the market and wanted to do a savory dish out of it. This gazpacho needs no cooking and the most one does is chopping ingredients and transforming them into a thick, coarse puree with seasonings and vegetables.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-peach-gazpacho-with-cucumber-for-sundaysupper/feed/ 15 5866 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-easy-chicken-barbecue-sandwiches/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-easy-chicken-barbecue-sandwiches/#comments Mon, 20 Jul 2015 00:20:19 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=5247 The busiest times of the day for any parent are the morning hours, before the kids get on the bus. We try to feed them breakfast, pack their lunch and get ourselves ready for work, as well. As a working wife and parent, there were always mini battles in the morning before the kids left...]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-easy-chicken-barbecue-sandwiches/feed/ 2 5247 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-adobo-beef-burgers/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-adobo-beef-burgers/#comments Fri, 03 Jul 2015 03:26:11 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=5220 These Adobo Beef Burgers have Filipino flavors. I have grilled many burgers over the years we've lived in America. My family loves a good old fashioned burger served with crisp fries on the side. This time I made a Pinoy burger with adobo flavors of garlic and vinegar. I cooked vegetables right next to the patties on the grill to serve as a side. And for an added Filipino touch, stacked the burgers and condiments on a jumbo pan de sal, the Filipino bun.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-adobo-beef-burgers/feed/ 1 5220 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-hainanese-chicken-with-chicken-rice-a-singapore-style-recipe/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-hainanese-chicken-with-chicken-rice-a-singapore-style-recipe/#comments Sun, 14 Dec 2014 05:00:40 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=4806 Hainanese Chicken Rice, Singapore-style is a light, refreshing way to serve an entree. Try this for a holiday party to balance the heavy richness of other dishes. Or enjoy it as an everyday dish. The chicken is simply poached in the boiling water flavored with ginger and scallions. The same soup stock is used to cook the white rice later on.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-hainanese-chicken-with-chicken-rice-a-singapore-style-recipe/feed/ 1 4806 https://thequirinokitchen.com/asian-noodles-with-spicy-peanut-sauce/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/asian-noodles-with-spicy-peanut-sauce/#comments Fri, 19 Jul 2013 03:00:28 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=3844 When the hot days of summer are here, I bring out this Cold Asian Noodles Salad with Spicy Peanut Sauce. It's a fast and easy recipe. I used lo mein noodles and slices of fresh, chilled vegetables. I even had char-grilled ribs to go on top of the salad, and served this with sides of corn on the cob. Serve this as a starter, side or entrée any day.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/asian-noodles-with-spicy-peanut-sauce/feed/ 2 3844
