Food Magazine's Valentine's Issue


Love is in the air! And what better way to express your deepest sentiments but through cooking? As the saying goes, the way to a man’s (and woman’s, of course!) heart is through the stomach. We simply delight in the idea of how sweet it is when we cook for our loved ones. The process of thinking what to include in and how to prepare the menu; undergoing the actual process of cooking, mixing, and harmonizing flavors and aromas; and most importantly, seeing the delight in their eyes when they mumble their “Mmmmm!!”s and “Aaahhhh…”s, completes the romantic vibe of the season that money cannot simply buy.

Food Magazine, the most outstanding culinary magazine in the country, features easy yet delectable recipes of all kinds in its February issue. In the Cover Story, Chef Joey Prats teaches the readers a step-by-step recipe on preparing a terrific Triple Chocolate Cheesecake and an easy Walnut Shortbread; In Kitchen Notes, Ms. Dorothy MJ Ferreria shares how you can fix a special Valentine dinner for two in just 30 minutes; In Eat & Run, recipes on Chicken Fillet with Salad Greens and Strawberry Tres Leches cake show that this seemingly difficult yet delightfully mouthwatering recipe is as easy as 1-2-3; and in Chef’s At Large, Chef Hannah Herrera not only talks about her passion and mission but also reveals her recipes for Healthy Chicken Peach Crunch Salad and Molten Brownie Cupcakes. As an added bonus, this issue’s Cook & Sell gives readers the idea of selling Old-World Morcon, complete with step-by-step recipe and costing. Also, Marvelous Meatless Meals offers a head start on preparing wonderful food this coming Lenten season. With easy-to-follow recipes and appetizing pictures to base your menu on, you’ll find yourself expertly cooking the best of the best this Valentine season.

Food Magazine’s February Issue, as always, is loaded with other wonderful recipes, tips, and trivia that will leave readers inundated with helpful and practical information they can certainly apply in their homes.
