Cooking with Eva: Chicken and Yellow Rice...

You may have noticed the addition of videos to recent blogs. I'm trying to learn how to work with Pinnacle 12 so I can really clean up years and years of home movies I have. The only way to learn it (for free) is to practice.

In the mean time, my wife is trying to teach our kids - okay, mostly my son since my daughter is already a good cook - how to make the dishes they grew up with. So, I pulled out the video camera and taped her during a recent meal preparation, and this is what we have.



No fancy picture in picture or special editing, just my wife narrating how she makes one of my all time favorite meals, Chicken and Yellow Rice. Growing up, my mom used to make this often and when we got married, she gave the recipe to my wife. But the best place to get it (and neither Eva or my mom will disagree), is at The Columbia in Ybor City.

So if you wanna try to make this dish yourself, take five minutes to watch the video.

  1. Can' go wrong with The Columbia or Bern's Steak House when you find yourself in Ybor City.

  5. The stairs at the James Joyce are not for the faint of heart or the overly intoxicated.
