<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif";">สวัสดี</span>!
My four hour “flight” from New Delhi to Bangkok got me to Thailand around 1
p.m. local time, so I was starving for some lunch when I “arrived.” <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And what immediately comes to everyone’s minds when they
think of Thai food? Pad thai (<span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif";">ผัดไทย)</span>,
of course, a stir-fried rice noodle dish filled with a multitude of flavorful
ingredients and toppings. Thai cuisine is known for its complexity, variety,
and depth of flavor, and sweet, spicy, sour, savory pad thai reflects all of
those elements. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDr8PexoKcwRT9p3-FnXOlae9xhBgSdRE6FuVFtP1E9IldB6JIXYRKYAzb37c0_6myugB7FFdDO5xbx2s8K13f5YdmS-80Hi8MXgtxTosdDD-l2X6wmdnPELaHxKV-3lisUFPeYClmZk8/s1600/pizza2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgDr8PexoKcwRT9p3-FnXOlae9xhBgSdRE6FuVFtP1E9IldB6JIXYRKYAzb37c0_6myugB7FFdDO5xbx2s8K13f5YdmS-80Hi8MXgtxTosdDD-l2X6wmdnPELaHxKV-3lisUFPeYClmZk8/s320/pizza2.jpg" width="274" /></a>Pad thai is often served out of street stalls in the streets
of Bangkok, which has a strong street food culture similar to Mexico City's.
Therefore, I thought yet again about the ideas of ease and efficiency. How can
I make my pad thai better suited to a quick, on-the-go lunch? Well, a favorite,
portable lunch in America (and in Italy) is pizza. You guessed it; we’re making
fusion food again!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For my tasty Thai lunch, I decided to take all of the
classic pad thai elements and put them on a pizza (yes, even the noodles)!
Haven’t you ever had spaghetti pizza? Not only is my pizza topped with a
traditional chicken pad thai stir fry and all of its garnishes, but its base is
also influenced by another popular Thai flavor—instead of tomato sauce, I
spread spicy peanut sauce on the pizza dough. I hope you enjoy my unique, mouth-watering chicken pad thai pizza!<br />
<br />
This is the end of my three-week edible adventure; now I'm headed home to Philadelphia. But I won't stop "traveling" through cooking, so keep up with my blog for some weekend trips "abroad" this summer!</div>

1. First, prepare all the ingredients that will go in the
pad thai stir fry. Sauté the chicken and cut it into bite-sized pieces,
julienne the carrot and pepper, mince the garlic, chop the cilantro, and crack
and beat the egg. Then, cook the noodles in boiling water for 4 minutes.
Immediately drain them, and rinse them with cold water to stop the cooking
process.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2. While the noodles are cooking, whisk together the
tamarind paste (or the lime juice/brown sugar substitute), fish sauce, soy
sauce, and water, and cook it in a wok with the cornstarch to thicken it. <o:p></o:p></div>

Then, mix in the noodles, carrot, pepper, and garlic, and
toss to coat everything with the sauce. Once this mixture has cooked for a few
minutes, make a well in the middle and add the egg. Let it cook, then toss to
combine it with the rest of the pad thai. Stir in the cilantro, and take it off
the heat.<o:p></o:p></div>

6. Cover the dough with the peanut sauce, then spread ½ cup
of mozzarella on each pizza. Put ½ of the pad thai noodle mixture onto each
pizza, then put 1 cup of the remaining mozzarella on top of the two pizzas. Bake the
pizzas at 425 degrees for about 10-12 minutes. <o:p></o:p></div>

7. When the pizzas come out of the oven, top them with a
drizzle of chili sauce, a squeeze of lime juice, crushed peanuts, bean sprouts,
green onion, and cilantro. Use a pizza cutter to cut slices (or leave it as one
big slice for you and only you!). <span style="font-family: "Microsoft Sans Serif";">สนุก</span>!<o:p></o:p></div>

नमस्ते! If only I had postponed my “trip” to New Delhi, India, until July
2—that’s the date of the annual<sup> </sup>International Mango Festival in
India’s capital (here’s a hint…mangoes are essential in today’s recipe)! Alas,
I “arrived” a few nights ago, around 8 p.m., after an 8-hour flight from Italy.
By that time, I was ready for a sweet treat.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_hC-VZotCgQIgEYMP-M8tMuC70_vbxADrK-JcpzeNi1Jxc6OI4KmF5s8ttfgk81YO6tiyg45EjTucYvNLT3gVJa1tmQ_CrjrP5laRu470IQiZWub7QYduZ5vZ5eCYMIpH_EUmiM7TT_0/s1600/lassi.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh_hC-VZotCgQIgEYMP-M8tMuC70_vbxADrK-JcpzeNi1Jxc6OI4KmF5s8ttfgk81YO6tiyg45EjTucYvNLT3gVJa1tmQ_CrjrP5laRu470IQiZWub7QYduZ5vZ5eCYMIpH_EUmiM7TT_0/s320/lassi.jpg" width="269" /></a><br />
My favorite Indian recipe to order in the States
is the mango <i>lassi</i>, a creamy, tangy,
yogurt-based smoothie that is the perfect accompaniment to a hearty meal. Different types of <i>lassis</i> are
popular all around India—savory <i>lassis</i> with spices such as cumin, sweet mint <i>lassis</i>,
<i>bhang </i>(basically, marijuana) <i>lassis</i>, and my favorite, mango <i>lassis</i>. These tasty mango concoctions can be infused with other aromatic ingredients, such as rosewater
or cardamom, adding even more depth of flavor.<o:p></o:p></div>

(often 90 degrees Farenheit, sometimes even 110!), a tall, cool drink is just
what people need after a long, hot day. Naturally, that’s exactly what I went
for the second I “stepped foot” in India.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But don’t expect me to make a simple mango<i> lassi</i> and
be done with it! One of my favorite concepts ever is fusion food, or a culinary
combination of two cultures. I decided to take the refreshing, sweet flavors of
a mango <i>lassi</i> and use them in a distinctly American creation—a
cupcake. What could possibly be a better dessert than classic vanilla cupcakes
stuffed with tart mango curd and smothered with creamy mango <i>lassi</i> icing? Nothing.<o:p></o:p><br />

2. While the cupcakes are baking, combine the
sugar, cornstarch, mango, butter, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a saucepan to
make the mango curd. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until the
mixture is thickened.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
3. Temper the egg yolks by stirring half of the
mango mixture into the yolks, then stirring the yolks back into the rest of the
mango mixture. Bring this just to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, for
two more minutes. Cover the curd with plastic wrap, and chill it until ready to
use.<o:p></o:p><br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
4. As the curd and the cupcakes are cooling,
purée 2-3 chopped mangoes with the honey until smooth, then add the yogurt.
Cream the butter in a different bowl, and add half of the mango <i>lassi</i> mixture.
(Add some ice cubes to the other half, and enjoy a drink with your dessert!)
Next, beat in the powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth, thick, and
spreadable.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
5. Make a hole in the center of each cupcake (I
used an apple corer), and fill them with a dollop of chilled mango curd (I used
a squeeze bottle). Top with a spoonful of mango <i>lassi</i> icing,
and dive in! आनंद!<br />

ready for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">il pranzo</i> (lunch). In most
European countries, lunch is the formal meal of the day, and Italy is no
exception. Traditionally, the meal begins with a starter, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">un
antipasto. </i><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">A f</span>irst course, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">un
primo</i>, follows, and then a second course, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">un
secondo.</i> As people now have less time for lunch breaks, lunch is often not as structured or homemade. Instead of savoring a formal, sit-down affair, many workers grab
a quick meal in a restaurant, then head back to the office.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With these changes in mind, I wanted to blend care and tradition with efficiency and simplicity in my ambitious Italian dish. I baked
some homemade parmesan <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">focaccia</i> bread
to use in my take on a quick, flavorful <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">caprese
panino</i>, which has many classic Italian flavors and ingredients, including spicy
basil <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">pesto</i>, salty <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">prosciutto</i>, and gooey <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mozzarella </i>cheese. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Squisito! </i><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I hope you enjoyed this savory lunch. Join
me in India next week for some sweet dessert!</div>

2. Place the dough on a floured surface, dust it with more

tomato and the mozzarella.<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
8. To make the pesto, combine the basil, pine nuts, garlic,

add in the olive oil while pulsing. Once it is all incorporated, spoon the
pesto into a bowl and mix in the parmesan cheese.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Salut, ça va? </i>After
my amazing time in Mexico City, I “jetted off” to one of my favorite cities in
the whole world—Paris, France. I left Mexico on a 2 a.m. red-eye “flight,” and
stepped off the plane in Charles de Gaulle Airport at 8 p.m. local time (can
you say jet-lag?). Thankfully, I arrived in Paris just in time for dessert! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What better way to represent such an iconic city than with <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes, </i>a classic French dessert? <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Crêperies </i>are scattered throughout the
streets of Paris, as quick street stalls or more formal sit-down restaurants,
serving all types of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes</i>, from
flambéed <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes</i> <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">suzette</i> to savory buckwheat <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">galettes</i>.<o:p></o:p></div>

A
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">compote </i>(French for <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">mixture</i>—you’d be surprised at how many
of our cooking techniques come from the French!), made of fruit cooked in a
simple syrup of sugar and water, is the perfect topping to spread inside of a
warm <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpe.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To create two unique flavor profiles, I combined juicy
nectarines with bright blueberries and paired sweet strawberries with tart
blackberries. Then, I added some fresh mint to both compotes to enhance the fruity flavors. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
But you can’t have dessert <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes </i>without chocolate, of course, so I couldn’t help but whip up
a rich chocolate <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">ganache </i>and some
caramel sauce for a tasty third type of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpe</i>.
And, finally, I topped each and every <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpe</i> with some light homemade whipped cream, or <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">chantilly, </i>as the French would call it. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Magnifique</i>!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve had a love affair with <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes</i> ever since my real-life visit to Paris seven years ago, and I
can’t wait to visit an authentic French <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêperie</i>
again. But, for now, my homemade <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">crêpes</i>
will hopefully satisfy my wanderlust (and yours too!). <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Bon appétit!</i> I’ll meet you in Italy on Friday, just in time to grab
some lunch!<br />

¡<i>Hola, vamanos</i>! I left Philly on a 12 p.m. “flight,” and I
arrived in Mexico City at 6 p.m., just in time for dinner. In the United
States, dinner is usually the big meal of the day, but in Mexico, the main
formal meal is lunch. So, tonight, I decided to hit the road for some
traditional Mexican street food instead.<br />
<br /></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
For my take on <i>antijitos</i>, or little cravings, I just had to try the tacos—after
all, they are the most popular street dish. Grilled meat (<i>carne asada</i>) tacos usually make an appearance in the evening and
night, so I chose to make grilled flank steak tacos for my Mexican feast.<br />
<br />
The
spicy chipotle marinade needed a sweet element for balance, so I paired it with
a well-known topping—salsa. But this salsa was no ordinary salsa: pineapple and
mango took it to the next level. To spice things up even more, I put my own
spin on some Mexican street corn, a traditional side that is a favorite in
Mexico City. After I cut the kernels off, I mixed them with bold flavors that
mirror those in the tacos to make a dish called <i>esquites</i>. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
Street vendors truly make Mexico a unique culinary
hotspot, so I hope you enjoy my trip to the <i>taqueria</i>
as much as I did. Enjoy the meal, and I’ll see you in France for dessert next
week!</div>

7. Warm the tortillas by throwing them on the grill, in a
skillet, or in the microwave. Then, cut the meat against the grain and assemble
the tacos. Put a few pieces of meat in each tortilla along with a scoop of
salsa. Enjoy one (or two…or three) with a side of Mexican street corn!<br />

going to take you on an edible adventure around the world. As a girl who loves
to eat, travel, and write, I could think of nothing more perfect to do for my
high school senior project than to combine all of those interests in an
international food blog.<br />

Don’t get me wrong, Philadelphia is a fantastic city, but
sometimes I need a change of pace, and food is one of the best ways to explore
other cultures without ever stepping foot on an airplane. <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Travel with me from Mexico all the way to Thailand as I
create my own recipes inspired by each unique city that I “visit” by
researching its traditions, language, and history. Along with demonstrating my
dishes, my posts will also give you a glimpse into the culture of every
destination. Together, we can learn about the world while simultaneously
tasting it.</div>
