When it comes to cooking my belief is that it can absolutely be learned, but there are some people who just have that food “thing”. Do you know what I mean? That natural understanding of flavors and what works together. It feels like something they were born with because it comes so second nature to them. Liesl Maggiore is one of those people. She recently launched a new food blog called Lieslicious and all I can say is now my world is complete. Liesl and I became fast friends three years ago and I’ve pretty much been idolizing her ever since that fateful night we met smothered in margaritas. Long story, some other day… Lieslicious is a collection of simple recipes with a concentration on fresh, seasonal ingredients. What I love most about her recipes (besides how good they taste) is that a lot of them have as few as five ingredients. She is a busy working mom and knows complicated recipes crowded with twenty different ingredients is just not practical and not necessary. I also love that many of her recipes are accompanied by a video so it’s easier to grasp techniques like browning butter. I always thought it impossibly complicated, but after watching her do it I feel confident I can make it work. So do you and your stomach a favor and check out Lieslicous then subscribe, like, follow and enjoy. Bon appetit!
