Inside Tiny's Kitchen!!

Despite all of the post wedding/ honeymoon/ holiday craziness, I've still managed to keep up one of my favorite things to do: COOKING!! I've been cooking pretty consistently and last week I think I cooked four or five times. The first two nights I tried out the new herbs and spices I received from my close friend, Kristin for Christmas! They were delicious!! Here they are:

This is the new Salmon Rub Kristin got me - I put a little corn over it after. I baked the salmon in the oven after putting the rub over it and it turned out super moist and delicious! The ingredients are in caption below:

"Northwest Salmon Rub: Gourmet-style rub that's perfect for Salmon. An influence of Seattle and Asian style flavors, along with smoked salt, make this a great seasoning. Contains: pepper, smoked sea salt, orange zest, star anise, coriander, cumin, fennel, dill, celery seed, turbinado."

 Made a little side of Southwest corn chowder to go with the fish:

 On Day 2, I decided to try the other blend I received! I bought a little bit of shrimp and chicken to try the zesty garlic blend on! I simply put the ingredients on the shrimp/ chicken and then cooked it in a skillet!! The ingredients are listed in the caption below:

"Garlic Fix: Bold all-purpose blend that's great with chicken, burgers, pizza, eggs, soups, or sauteed with shrimp for killer scampi! Contains: garlic, chives, shallots, kosher salt, and black pepper."

 A little bit of lettuce and green onions tossed in korean peppers and sesame oil to use for wrapping! Giving it an asian twist! :)

 Also made a little bit of killer "Dwaen Jang Jigae" (a type of Korean soup) and rice to go with the chicken and shrimp to give it a little bit of spice!

 I think everything turned out better than I thought! I love trying new recipes but the only con is that you never know how everything's going to turn out! That's why I'm glad I have my personal taster ready haha! And as long as the Tiger is happy, I know I've succeeded! ;)
