Most people do not think "Oklahoma" when they think of Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Taiwanese, Thailand, or Korean food, yet in Oklahoma there are thriving, vibrant communities of individuals from those countries who have immigrated and settled in Oklahoma, and this recipe is based on a fresh spring roll I tried at a local restaurant. In fact, if you have any leftovers, feel free to roll them up in rice paper.

Bone-In Ham Cooked in Beer
This is a recipe we have used for the past 5 years. The beer really tenderizes the ham. Using beer is probably a Wisconsin thing. We seem to find many uses for it. But don't worry, the ham will not taste like beer when it is done other than maybe a small hint on the bottom portions. I don't like beer at all, so I was quite skeptical at first, but when I found out that the ham I had at my friend's house for Christmas the year before had beer used to make it, I tried it and have been hooked ever since.
Vegan Chickpea Curry without Coconut Milk
This recipe was given to me by my boss, who is Asian. It has been passed through generations of her family so as you can imagine it is the real deal. Very healthy and super tasty. You can serve it as a side or main. Serve with either rice, bread, bhaji, or samosas.
Coconut Cream Pound Cake
This moist coconut pound cake is a real crowd-pleaser. I use this recipe for making wedding cake layers.
