Homemade Italian dressing is pretty low hanging fruit if you’re looking to up your cooking game. It’s quick to make, budget-friendly, and tastier than store-bought. Just shake it up in an ordinary jar using pantry staples. The whole operation will take you under 2 minutes and results in enough dressing to get you through a couple of family-sized salads. Plus, it’s made with heart-healthy olive oil and packs less sugar and none of the gums or additives in many ready-made dressings.

Ask any foodie who keeps up with the latest culinary trends and they may tell you about Kewpie mayo. This popular mayonnaise is used in a number of dishes in Japan, mostly notably egg salad sandwiches sold at 7-Eleven. While the company has been around for almost a century, it was only in the 1980's when Kewpie opened its first manufacturing plant in the U.S. Since then, the company has expanded to North America, Europe, as well as other Asian countries. But what makes this mayo so great that it's crossed borders and become a worldwide phenomenon? Aside from its myriad of flavors and choices, the popularity of Japanese food in general may have something to do with pop culture trends, including manga and anime, stirring up interest in other aspects of life in Japan. Japanese food also has a reputation for being healthy. Regardless of the reason, many are impressed by Kewpie mayo's creamy texture and flavorful taste.

When I lived in a 500-square-foot apartment with my husband and son back in Brooklyn, it wasn’t the small bathroom we three had to share or the lack of parking space that irked me, but rather our tiny kitchen. I rarely cooked because we had little kitchen counter space—just enough for one large cutting board, maybe a few bowls, and that’s it.

I'm Italian and a chef, so most days, I'm down to do things the long way, like simmer pasta sauce all day or make my own bread. It's partially how I was raised and partially what has been hammered into me working for nearly a decade in professional kitchens. So when I go to the grocery store, I tend to stay away from things like jarred sauces or "shortcut" items.
