This pasta meal is best when you cook with shrimps or seafood purchased the same day. While the pasta was boiling in water, I did a quick saute of the fresh, peeled shrimps in olive oil, garlic, white wine and seasonings. Add vegetable greens like spinach at the last few minutes of cooking and dinner is ready.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-cook-shrimps-and-vegetables-on-pasta/feed/ 0 5751 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-a-pineapple-summer-cake-for-sundaysupper/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-a-pineapple-summer-cake-for-sundaysupper/#comments Sun, 29 May 2016 05:00:25 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=5771 This Pineapple Summer Cake is a light, refreshing summer cake to enjoy during the spring to late summer months. The tropical flavors of pineapple and citrus from the lemon zest add to its summer feel. The procedure is pretty easy and straightforward. Towards the middle of the baking process, the pineapple chunks are added as a topping to the cake and you continue baking it for a few more minutes.

She said it means twice baked, one of the many interesting tidbits about Italian biscotti. I made these Green Tea Biscotti with Matcha Powder and it was easier than I imagined it would be. In the cookbook’s original recipe these green tea biscotti have toasted almonds in the batter and are drizzled with a white chocolate glaze after baking. I chose to make these green tea biscotti in its simplicity so we could enjoy the wholesome matcha flavors fully.]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-green-tea-biscotti-with-matcha-powder/feed/ 6 5065 https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-mango-rum-bread-pudding/ https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-mango-rum-bread-pudding/#comments Fri, 20 Mar 2015 03:25:28 +0000 http://asianinamericamag.com/?p=5008 This Mango Rum Bread Pudding was an easy dessert to bake.

Filipinos love Italian food and will love this classic dessert. This was easy to bake and only needed a few apples and basic baking ingredients. I have baked different Torta di Mele recipes before because as Domenica Marchetti said “everyone has different versions of this cake.” This cake bakes quickly and will make a wonderful addition to your holiday desserts or as a gift to friends. ]]> https://thequirinokitchen.com/how-to-make-torta-di-mele-italian-apple-cake-by-domenica-marchetti/feed/ 0 4800
