PLEASE, DO NOT MARK YOUR QUESTIONS AS "PRIVATE" AS WE ARE NOT SET UP TO RESPOND TO THESE REQUESTS. Cooking has been my passion for more than forty years, both professionally and at home. I welcome any cooking or food related questions, especially those concerning culinary techniques. My specialties are Italian and Puerto Rican cuisine, with skills in French and Southern style cooking as well. My nickname of “JimmyScones” came about from my love of creating flaky and delicious scones. I love researching food topics from my cookbook collection and on the Internet. Please ask questions on food preparation, cooking equipment, techniques, ingredients, recipes, and recommended cookbooks. Thank you and have a great day.
Cooking has been my passion and avocation for more than 45 years. My grandmother (‘Nani’) taught me the skills needed to cook a complete Sunday dinner by the time I was ten years old. I still treasure the memory of those magnificent aromas wafting through her kitchen. My background includes part time restaurant work and meal preparation for large organizations and churches, as well as planning and cooking hundreds of meals for dinner parties, family gatherings, and business functions. I have also completed several courses at the Institute for Culinary Education (ICE) in NYC.
