From Valle Escondido: Presenting the Cooking Diva edit

From The Valle Escondido Resort Newsletter & Blog:

We are very proud and most fortunate to have a renowned new executive Chef for our restaurants, Melissa De Leon.

Last year we made significant improvements in our decor and menu, and now, we take it up a notch, a really big notch! Read the Complete Post...

For the Love of Colombian Food: Pachi The Colombian Cook edit

Award winning Colombian Chef Patricia McCauslad is the creator of Pachi The Colombian Cook. We invite you to head over to her blog and learn about her adventures all over the globe.

Now, from her new cookbook "Passion for Coffee" we are sharing this delicious recipe:

Asian Vinaigrette

2/3 cup, 4 servings

My favorite of all! Just try it . . . Keep this dressing on hand at home or at the office. Mix with some greens and vegetables and voilà—a midday energy booster!

2 tablespoons minced parsley

4 teaspoons rice vinegar

4 teaspoons maple syrup

1 teaspoon freeze-dried or granulated instant coffee

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon dark sesame oil

6 tablespoons canola oil

In a nonreactive bowl, stir together the parsley, vinegar, maple syrup, coffee, salt, and pepper. Add the oils and whisk with a fork until thick and emulsified.

Video From the Tropics: Chocolate Snowballs with Almonds (en/es) edit

We love the land and the many gifts Mother and Father nature share with us, specially in the Tropics. After traveling the world and experiencing the wonders and learning one step at the time, we feel proud for always coming back to our country Panama to share the bounty. Just share what you know and love, after that...everything will make total sense. It maybe is your purpose in life or just a hobby, but just do it and you will feel reinvented and well loved.

It feels fantastic to me, but...how about you, how do you feel when you share your love?

Oh! Regarding the video, it is show #6, cooking segment of "Living Made Simple in Panama." It has been really exciting to work with Aimee Arnold de Lindo. Now you will be able to learn how to prepare "Chocolate Snowball Cookies with Almonds." Let us know how do you like them!

There will be many good things to come, we will keep you posted. Its a promise!

Have a fantastic and extra tasty rest of the week!

Love,
Melissa
