I know. It’s cheesy but I miss Polish farmer’s cheese

May 18, 2014 by Food Polka

Do you want to know the food products from Poland I miss the most? Polish-style farmer’s cheese. During my childhood, this was my favorite food and it was relatively easy to get, unlike most other food products. During the 80s most food items were rationed per person. However, this cheese was never rationed.I would walk into the often bare market and get the whiff of that unique sour smell the cheese produced, especially strong when there was no A/C. I […]

Oranges + Carrots. A Match Made in Heaven

April 16, 2014 by Food Polka

I thought that by April Navels would be gone but because of the dry and warm winter we had here in California this year, they are still available. So today, I am going to be using Navel oranges once again, and this time the oranges will be used to make a super aromatic […]

“Just go for it” portabella-spinach Wontons

February 26, 2014 by Food Polka

Much like a painter who starts to paint and creates a unique piece of art, a good cook can whip up something by just starting to cook. I tend to make the best meals when I look at what’s lying around in my cupboards and refrigerator and just go for it. This happens because I have good cooking intuition. For example, yesterday I was feeling super hungry and knew I had to eat before my Pilates class, but I wasn’t […]
