In my junior year of college, this dish was the go-to late-night study food for the whole floor of my dorm. Most of us on the floor were majoring in the same subject so the night before a big test we...
Velvety Radish Sauce One of my very first food memories is of radishes. Grandma, I questioned, Do you really like radishes? My grandmother was standing over her kitchen sink washing a bunch of radish...
Fish Sauce (left) & Soy Sauce (right) The other day I picked up a bottle of fish sauce. (I was craving Singapore Mei Fun Noodles something fierce…and I’ve heard that even though fish sauce isn’t ...
Lebanese Nights (Layali Lubnan) One of my favorite desserts in my book is a pudding called Lebanese Nights. It’s a rich, velvety, aromatic pudding that’s topped with cream, pistachios, and shredded c...
I make granola frequently and I’ve shared a couple recipes for it (this Pumpkin Spice version is one of my favs when autumn is in the air and even when it’s not), but I’ve never tried my hand at home...
Last week Mike and I celebrated our anniversary. Don’t worry, I’m not about to get all sappy on you…I’ll keep it food-related. :) If I had to choose one food that reminds me of our honeymoon (other t...
This recipe makes either two jumbo burgers, three regular burgers, or four small burgers. If you can believe it, that jumbo burger pictured above is only 1/4 pound of shrimp! It looks like it’s at le...
Are you one of those people who can drink coffee any time of day? Mike likes to joke that I drink coffee instead of warm milk at night to help me sleep…and while that isn’t exactly true, it is true t...
What’s your favorite way to celebrate summer? Maybe pool parties, ice cream socials, or a night at the drive-in theater with friends? (Love the drive-in, by the way! Even though every time I go I get...
If you’re new to An Edible Mosaic, welcome! I’m Faith and I write this blog; please enjoy taking a look around. I like to feature anything and everything food-related, but in general I focus on healt...
A Shelf of Favorites in My Cookbook Collection ***First I have to say, Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers…wishing you a wonderful day!*** Now that you’ve realized your passion and have turne...
The day I made this Pineapple-Almond Slaw Salad I was having my mom and sister over for lunch (built-in recipe testers are the best, aren’t they?). This salad was so delicious (and addictive) with it...
Morning in the Middle East (Apricot Jam): Check out my guest post on The Ardent Epicure to see how I used color in this image (as well as several others) to tell a story. I’m so excited to share this...
I think everyone has a dish that they enjoy but don’t make very often (or even just an ingredient that rarely finds its way into their grocery cart), for no reason other than it doesn’t come to mind....
This salad really couldn’t be simpler, and it’s just the thing I’ve been craving lately: I used a basic vinaigrette to dress white beans, roasted red bell pepper, and a bit of red onion. There’s a sp...
So, honey, I made something and I think it’s really good…do you want to taste it? I’m not really hungry. (Not two minutes later, he grabs a bowl of mixed nuts and starts munching away.) I thought you...
Fresh, seasonal produce is one of life’s biggest pleasures. I can’t think of anything I’d rather eat all day long on a crisp fall day than ripe concord grapes straight off the vine. (In fact, this is...
With all the amazing looking grilled cheese recipes that have been floating around the internet recently you probably know that April is National Grilled Cheese month. I had no idea that such a thing...
Ouch, I think I just got a splinter in my face!, I muttered. I was not a happy camper. I had been (quite literally) bitten in the face by the spring-cleaning bug and I was tackling that cupboard in ...
It’s not new, but on the off chance that someone hasn’t made chocolate avocado pudding I wanted to share my version. If you’re on the fence about making it, give it a try! If the fact that it’s hea...
I just realized how pretty fresh dill is. :) I know we’re getting to the tail end of soup season (in the Northern Hemisphere, anyway), but I just had to share this one. I made it a couple months a...
For quite a while I’ve been hearing about the wonder that is beer bread, but I just recently got around to making it myself. (Ok, so it was actually a couple months ago when I made it and I’m a litt...
This is exactly how I feel about cooking, but I tend to think of it the other way around — since I get to do what I love, I never really have to work. :) In Part 1 of this series I talked abo...
I love organizing tools almost as much as I love kitchen tools. Lists, stackable closet shelves, small plastic baskets (like these ones by Coza Brazil)…you name it, if it’s an organizing goodie I pr...
I have a picture of each of the seasons in my mind…summer is grill parties, fall is harvest dinners, and winter is comforting stews, roasts, and casseroles. But every time cheery spring arrives with...
There’s no avoiding packed lunches. Most of us make them on almost a daily basis, either for ourselves, our spouses, or our kids. I’m a big advocate of eating at home or packing a lunch rather than...
Pizza Burgers Last week I mentioned an upcoming virtual cooking class on grilling that I was co-hosting; I wanted to give you an update because not only was the class was a ton of fun, but I also le...
I know I’ve mentioned it here before, but I was a strange child (I know that’s pretty open for interpretation, but I’m mostly talking about my tastes in food, lol!). I hated foods I should have love...
The beautiful cover of my cookbook was designed by the talented designers at Tuttle. All photos were taken by yours truly. I have the most exciting news to share with you since I shared since this po...
