They are rich, thick and dense. The sweet rice flour gives the sliced chocolate chunks the squishy, gooey texture. Filipinos love desserts and brownies are a favorite. These are easy to mix and bake. They're ideal for desserts or snacks any day. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/chocolate-mochi-brownies/feed/ 5 16301 https://thequirinokitchen.com/sisig-tofu-air-fryer/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/sisig-tofu-air-fryer/#respond Mon, 18 Jan 2021 00:42:17 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15755 Sisig Tofu in the Air Fryer is my no-meat, greaseless version of the popular Filipino dish pork sisig. In place of meat, I used extra firm tofu, cooked to a crisp in the Air Fryer. To make this appealing, I used the same flavors for the sisig sauce which Filipinos enjoy : Citrusy, salty and spicy. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/sisig-tofu-air-fryer/feed/ 0 15755 https://thequirinokitchen.com/black-kutsinta-instant-pot-stovetop/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/black-kutsinta-instant-pot-stovetop/#comments Sun, 03 Jan 2021 00:12:01 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15661 Black Kutsinta is a Filipino rice cake that's a sister version of the classic, orange-colored kakanin Pinoys are familiar with. This black kutsinta is flavored with blackstrap molasses, which gives it a dark, nearly black color, and a thick, sticky texture. The addition of molasses to the traditional recipe gives the rice cake a slight hint of bitterness, which is unnoticed when the sweet toppings of coconut flakes, dulce de leche or coconut jam are added. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/black-kutsinta-instant-pot-stovetop/feed/ 1 15661 https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-beef-bourguignon/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-beef-bourguignon/#respond Sun, 20 Dec 2020 03:40:13 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15569 This Instant Pot Beef Bourguignon is my modern version of the classic French-inspired beef stew. This rich stew is cooked in the Instant Pot multicooker to cut cooking time in half, while achieving the splendid results of tender, juicy beef. The meat simmers in a savory tomato sauce enhanced with red wine and seasonings. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-beef-bourguignon/feed/ 0 15569 https://thequirinokitchen.com/salmon-in-brown-butter/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/salmon-in-brown-butter/#respond Sun, 29 Nov 2020 00:39:08 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15089 This Salmon in Brown Butter dish is one of the easiest entrees to prepare. Brown the butter for seven minutes in the skillet. Then cook the salmon fillets in the butter. This cooks fast and can be prepared a few minutes before dinner. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/salmon-in-brown-butter/feed/ 0 15089 https://thequirinokitchen.com/basque-burnt-cheesecake/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/basque-burnt-cheesecake/#respond Sun, 22 Nov 2020 00:39:08 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15306 This is my easy version of the famous Basque Burnt Cheesecake, originated by Chef Santiago Rivera of the La Vina Restaurant in San Sebastian, Spain. Mix the ingredients together and bake it in a parchment paper-lined pan at a high oven temperature. The cheesecake top comes out dark brown, nearly burnt in appearance, with a rough texture outside. Once sliced, the creamy, heavenly insides are like a dream.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/basque-burnt-cheesecake/feed/ 0 15306 https://thequirinokitchen.com/sticky-rice-with-chicken-and-chinese-sausages-instant-pot/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/sticky-rice-with-chicken-and-chinese-sausages-instant-pot/#comments Sun, 15 Nov 2020 00:51:27 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15275 Sticky Rice with Chicken and Chinese Sausage is a favorite selection at dim sums. It's easy to make at home with a few basic ingredients or leftovers from the holidays. This rice entree or side has cooked chicken, Chinese sausages, mushrooms, shrimps and savory sauces. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/sticky-rice-with-chicken-and-chinese-sausages-instant-pot/feed/ 2 15275 https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-sinigang-na-salmon-tamarind-stew/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/instant-pot-sinigang-na-salmon-tamarind-stew/#comments Sun, 01 Nov 2020 21:14:45 +0000 https://www.asianinamericamag.com/?p=15175 Are you all candied-out from the cloyingly-sweet chocolates left over from Halloween? We are. So, I cooked Instant Pot Sinigang na Salmon – Tamarind Fish Stew with Vegetables for today. It was a refreshing, wholesome change to the rich candies.

We’re in transition weather here on the east coast. It feels like late summer yet it’s early fall. So, this quick-cooking meal-in-a-bowl was ideal.

My version uses pan fried slices of eggplants, then later added them to stir-fried ground pork and seasonings. This easy-to-cook dish ranges in flavors from salty, sour, sweet to spicy. You can substitute sliced aubergines if you don't have the Asian eggplant variety.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/mapo-eggplant/feed/ 0 14614
