For this dinner I wanted to prepare a special and sentimental meal, inspired by my favorite dishes that my mother prepared for me while I was growing up. Both sweet and savory flavors will be highlighted in each of the dishes.
The dishes as authentic to my mother's creations/recipes as possible while reflecting my own, personal growth in the kitchen.
