  1. People hate on boiled foods but boiling (or poaching) is cooking technique that can make a lot of very delicious foods. Poached salmon, eggs, even chicken breast are some of my favorites. Your shrimp look delicious; I can’t wait to give this a try!

  2. I'm not a salad guy, or even a vegetable guy, but that is a salad I could get behind. That looks delicious.
