Hispanic Heritage Month Recipes

Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! Each year, from September 15 to October 15 Americans celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month by sharing the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, Central and South America. 2021 was especially significant because it was the 200th anniversary of Costa Rican Independence from Spain. Here are a few traditional & unique Latin American recipes you may want to add to your menu:

In My Kitchen - September 2015


It's time for another round of the very cool monthly happening called "In My Kitchen" run by Celia at Fig Jam and Lime Cordial. I can't believe it's already been over a year since joining in the fun!

So here we go....

This Month in my Kitchen...


August was hot, humid and dry. And busy... very, very busy. Work just seemed to be popping up everywhere for the both of us! September has started with a literal cloud above it, which hopefully breaks soon, we need the rain.
"I know to you it might sound strange, but I wish it would rain."
Classic Temptations! :)


Our Garden struggled with the heat and dryness but we have still been reaping the rewards. Eggplants, Hot Peppers, String Beans, Summer Squash, Okra, Tomatillos, and Tomatoes.

Kishore took me on a Birthday road trip to Boston. We had a great much needed relaxing time. :)

Birthday Presents from Russia...with Love!
My friends sent me this lovely birthday package: 
A painted tray that says "With Love", Hand carved Juniper Spoons, Hand painted Khokhloma Spoon, Cooking Spatulas, and Matryoshka Tea Towels.



Chocolate Pistachio Cookies, Recipe coming soon...
This month is my 3 year blogging anniversary stay tuned for a special post! :)

I finally joined Instagram! You can find me @cookingforkishore.
Feel free to instagram any recipes you try here and use #cookingforkishore. 
Looking forward to hearing from you all! :)

Please make sure you stop in and take a glance at everyone else's kitchens!

So tell me...What's happening in your kitchen this month?

    Your both gorgeous and make a stunning couple. I love your Russian gifts esp the tea-toels and spatula are lovely. Your aubergines are quite amazing, I have never seen eggplants so thin.

      Thanks Shaheen, he is a cutie! They are Japanese Ichiban eggplants, they grow long and slender; and are very fruitful growers. One plant has 5-6 full grown fruits at a time. They have a great taste, they also aren't bitter or as seedy as the Italian "Black Beauty" variety. :)

    This is lovely! I thought that shot of the pond was actually a beautiful ceramic dish at first. We are just entering Spring and I'm longing for some of those beautiful summer harvests. Beautiful gifts, happy birthday :)
