Shonal's Kitchen is an eclectic array of dishes using various ingredients from the "everyday" pantry. It helps you to create a meal from start to finish. From appetizers to desserts, meals are given recommended pairings, or you can choose your own. Special sections include a Thanksgiving Dinner, including a cooking schedule and timeline made possible for anyone to follow. Another special section is Mom's Indian Food. Several dishes I have learned from my mom and differ from what you would find in local Indian restaurants. Also included is the Home Chef's Pantry and Toolbox. I give suggestions of items needed for you to get started in the kitchen. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it!

When Shelley Leroux first visited her fiance's parents, they were eating hare. After her future father-in-law took one bite, he said to his wife (while still holding his knife and fork), "I wanted a Saskatchewan hare. This is an Alberta hare." While Leroux wondered if she should marry this picky man's son out of fear he would be the same, she had no idea she would soon learn how one man distinguished the difference between two hares-simply through taste. And so began Leroux's foray into the international world of cooking and tasting fabulous foods. In her collection of recipes and stories spanning more than eighty-five years, Leroux shares not only entertaining anecdotes about her life, but also simple recipes that tantalize the palate and celebrate flavors from around the world, including Belgium, Asia, and the United States. From Waterzoie de Volaille to Oriental Meatballs to Cape Cod Turkey, Leroux provides a delicious recipe for every palate-all while amusing with stories about unsuccessful dinner parties, yacht club sailboat races, the Pygmies, and vintage airplanes. The anecdotes and recipes included in "The Secret Ingredient" will encourage both novice and experienced cooks to explore international flavors right in their very own kitchens

Calera Uchigakiuchi Schlesinger, known affectionately to her family and friends as "Cal," is the adopted child of an entrepreneurial, Japanese mother and an artistic, cosmetic plastic surgeon, American father. She attends a Catholic girl's school, Sacred Hearts Academy, in Honolulu and has studied Shotokan karate for the past seven years. Cal has a cat named Burt and the sign on her bedroom door is "The Swamp," for good reason. She is an artist (she and her father, Larry, love the story of, Alice in Wonderland, and Cal's paintings based on it are pictured in this book). She and her mother, Arlene, love to cook-especially for friends and family. Cal also loves photography and took all the photos of the recipes for this book. Cal's pride in being creative also extends to the kitchen (when things don't work out quite the way a recipe said it would). As with art, so it is with food; it's very important to think creatively-and Cal's creativity has transformed meals from "doubtful" to "delicious." Through that experience she has come up with her own unique recipes to be part of something more than a simple "meal" and make it a special time with family and friends. Since in Hawaii, family is everything, Cal wanted to share some of her simple, yet delightful, recipes with other teenagers so they too can cook for their families.
