I always like cooking up a storm, but it takes me ages to find a recipe that I feel comfortable cooking. And something new, obviously. After searching the internet and reading magazines, I finally found what I wanted to make (to bring to a Thanksgiving dinner).

A handful of ingredients except I had to go out and buy some orzo from the bulk store. I guess orzo is not a popular food and I only found one neighbourhood grocery store that sold orzo in packages like pasta.

It takes time. It’s somewhat similar to cooking rice, it absorbs the liquid really fast and gets starchy. Keep stirring it, as it can burn easily

It looks really similar to rice. And everyone at the dinner I attended thought it was rice. But apparently, it’s a pasta. Either way, it’ll be a favourite in my diet.
