Billy’s Boudin and Cracklins in Lafayette, LA

Our family discovered and fell in love with boudin during a trip to Layfayette, LA, in 2019. We kept seeing advertisements for a place called “Billy’s Boudin and Cracklins” while driving and the advertisements worked! This mysterious thing called “boudin” must be discovered!

So we made our way to Billy’s Boudin. I bought a couple of Boudin Balls, a Smoked Boudin Sandwich, and some Cracklins.

At that time, I still didn’t know what Boudin was. All I knew was that after my first bite of the Boudin Ball and Smoked Boudin Sandwich, was that I was in HEAVEN!!!

Easy Spicy Caldereta Filipino Beef Stew!

May 29, 2021 by Grace Leave a Comment

This page may contain affiliate links. So, I receive a small commission at no cost to you when you make a purchase using my link. Here is a post about the amazingly delicious Filipino Beef Stew called Caldereta!

Beef caldereta with peas, green bell pepper, carrots, and potatoes

What Is Caldereta?

Caldereta, also spelled Kaldereta, is a stew made with goats meat from the Philippines. However, other variations exist and beef is commonly used in this amazing stew. This stew also includes vegetables such as potatoes, carrots, onions, bell peppers, as well as olives. The recipe you find here uses beef.

The meat is stewed with these vegetables along with a liver paste/spread. This spread enriches the taste of this stew like you wouldn’t believe!

“Caldereta” comes from the Spanish word “caldera” which means cauldron. The Philippines were occupied by the Spaniards for many years. The Wikipedia article on caldereta mentions that this dish is similar to meat stews from the Iberian peninsula which were brought to the Philippines by the Spaniards.

How To Make Korean Soft Tofu Stew!

May 3, 2021 by Grace Leave a Comment

This page may contain affiliate links. So, I receive a small commission at no cost to you when you make a purchase using my link. Here is a post about How To Make Korean Soft Tofu Stew!

Korean Soft Tofu Stew aka Sundubu Jigae

Jigae is a Korean stew. Sundubu refers to an extra soft tofu. Therefore Sundubu Jigae is a soft tofu stew. Which is absolutely delicious by the way!

In addition to the tofu this stew usually includes some vegetables, gochujang (Korean red pepper paste), and gochugaru (Korean red pepper powder). You can also include some seafood or a bit of meat (usually beef or pork).

It is traditionally cooked directly in the serving vessel, called a dolsot. The dolsot is usually porcelain or ceramic, or made out of stone. It’s so lovely to dine on this dish from the dolsot, which keeps your food piping hot!

The PERFECT Bacon Sarnie

April 14, 2021 by Grace Leave a Comment

This page may contain affiliate links. So, I receive a small commission at no cost to you when you make a purchase using my link. Here is a post about how to make The PERFECT Bacon Sarnie!!

Bacon Sarnie on a white plate with HP Sauce and Heinz Tomato Ketchup in the background

Behind Her Eyes Bacon Sarnie Scene

We recently watched the Netflix series called “Behind Her Eyes” which is set in England. This is a psychological drama involving a married couple Adele and David and a single mother Louise who enters their lives. It’s a 6 part series based on the novel by Sarah Pinborough. Although not for everyone (there are disturbing scenes and quite a lot of adult content), it is intriguing and the ending is quite shocking!

As for me, I am always looking out for food in the programs that I watch. In Episode 1, there is a scene in which Louise eats a Bacon Sarnie. She eats this on her first day of her new job when wearing a lovely white blouse. Unfortunately a huge blob of ketchup from the Bacon Sarnie ends up on her blouse and she ends up in a bit of a panic. 😕

By the way, Louise’s colleague who gave her the Bacon Sarnie states: “Bacon Sarnie what is better? Nothing…3 rashers of smoked best back is the highlight of my week.”
