Six Month Anniversary Edition: Then vs. Now
... all in my cast iron skillet or pressure cooker. Don't get me wrong, there are some things out there that just plain need an oven (chocolate chip cookies come to mind), but we're making due. It has also been very cool learning to cook with different local ingredients, including chayote, pumpkin, plantains, coconut milk, papaya, callaloo, lobster, yuca, and others.
