A Cookbook Project :)

Written by Published on Updated on March 14, 2018 in Uncategorized

Hello everyone!! 

I wanted to share a bit of great news with you, a few months ago I was contacted by Chef Anthony D. Marzetti from http://www.myculinaryhome.com, in regards to a cookbook project he was working on.  This cookbook would involve Food Bloggers from around the world submitting their favorite recipe.  Chef Dewey asked me if I would like to participate in this project, I was so honored and surprised at the same time and of course I did want to take part. 🙂  I submitted my Greek Beef Stew with Homemade Pasta recipe, and it has been published in the cookbook I have posted below..  

I would like to thank Chef Dewey once again for letting me take part in this wonderful project!!  

Thank you Chef 🙂

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece. My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural. In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it. Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits. So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes. Sophie

      Thank you my dear friend…I sent you an email Dee while back did you not receive it? mmmhhh…can you let me know if you did or not..it was towards the end of January…I was having problems with my internet back then. I have no idea if there would be any more collaborations, but I loved being part of this and the money from the sales will go to a children’s hospital which makes me very very happy 🙂
