Everyone talks about smothered cabbage… but I’

Everyone talks about smothered cabbage… but I’m here to smother the potatoes. 🥔✨
Because when you simmer potatoes in beef stock with smoky andouille sausage and buttery cabbage until everything is soft and clinging together like besties at brunch—well, that’s a meal worth talking about.

This dish is cozy, bold, and unapologetically Southern. One pot, tons of flavor, and even better the next day (if you don’t eat it all in one sitting).

💡 Pro tip: Add the potatoes in stages so they break down just enough to thicken the sauce without turning to mush.

Full recipe’s up on the blog—link in bio. Let’s get smothered.

Dan Dan Mian—aka Dan Dan Noodles—is a Sichuan

Dan Dan Mian—aka Dan Dan Noodles—is a Sichuan street food classic that I can’t get enough of. The combination of chewy noodles, spicy chili oil, savory pork, and tangy yacai (pickled mustard greens) creates a flavor explosion in every bite.

What sets this dish apart is the yacai, a fermented mustard green that adds a unique tangy depth. It’s not just a topping; it’s an essential component that brings authenticity to the bowl.

Pro tip: For the best texture, smear the ground pork into a thin layer in your wok and sear it hard. This technique gives you those crispy, umami-rich bits that cling perfectly to the noodles.

Beignets with Strawberry Jam—aka the softest lit

Beignets with Strawberry Jam—aka the softest little powdered sugar pillows you’ll ever meet, now with a jammy surprise inside. 🍓✨

These golden beignets are filled with fresh strawberry jam made from scratch—no store-bought shortcuts here. The yeasted dough fries up light and airy, while the homemade jam adds a bright, fruity contrast to the sweet exterior. Perfect for spring brunches, weekend baking projects, or when you want to feel like you’re in New Orleans (minus the humidity).

💡 Tip: Don’t wear black eating this (trust me).

Full recipe’s on the blog now. Go make a batch and dust generously. Like, powdered sugar cloud level generous.

Vietnamese Caramelized Pork Spare Ribs

No, that’s not the sound of rain—it’s pork ribs braising in caramel, fish sauce, and coconut water. And yes, it sounds like comfort.

This is Sườn Kho, one of my all-time favorite Vietnamese comfort dishes. Sticky, savory, a little sweet, and fall-off-the-bone tender. Serve it over hot jasmine rice with fresh cucumber slices and you’ve officially won dinner.

✨ Pro tip: Don’t walk away from your caramel. The line between golden perfection and bitter regret is razor thin.

🎥: Reel-worthy ribs doing their slow simmer thing. Turn the volume up—you’re gonna want to hear this one.
