I cook often. Most nights I cook from a stash of my tried-and-true, favorite recipes, but I also make an effort to cook with new-to-me ingredients. I love experimenting with different types of produce, spices, and unique finds from ethnic markets.
Want to try cooking with new ingredients in your kitchen? See how I do it. Here are five simple habits that help me cook with new ingredients on a regular basis.

“A different kind of hummus, featuring fresh basil and tomatoes – smooth, flavorful, and delicious.”
I’ve been getting a lot of requests for fish recipes recently, and so today I thought I would revisit this extra-simple, extra-fast dinner that delivers huge flavor in a foolproof package.
Fish cooks so fast — this dish is so convenient for those last-minute meals. It was one of my first “grown-up” recipes, a quick meal for busy evenings after work. I would turn to this frequently when living alone or with roommates. It never failed to please, with the fresh, aromatic flavors of cilantro, ginger, and sesame.

In the past, I’ve had a troubled relationship with biscuits. My favorite baked good seemed just beyond my reach. Until now.
Folks, you were tempted by the photos of Piper Davis making these jam-filled biscuits, “jammers,” during her kitchen tour a while back and now I’m bringing you her pitch-perfect recipe. Your world will be forever changed for the better!
