I am going to bake something new each month in 2010. Thanks for the opportunity!
For 2010 I would like master baking bread
What a great giveaway! My resolution for the kitchen in 2010 is to cook one new dish a week. We always get a few new cookbooks as gifts each year and we read them cover to cover, imagining how the recipes come alive on the plate, salivating over the photos – this year I want to pull out one recipe a week and make it.
I am actually going to write down the ingredients and directions for good recipes I make so we can enjoy them again. I am also going to pay more attention to plating the food and to table settings. You really are getting people inspired…
I plan to learn to cook chicken breasts properly. They should be the easiest thing in the world, but I always undercook mine and then have to put them back in the pan.
My simple resolution would be to try at least 1 recipe per cookbook I own already.. I seem to be always distracted by all my browsing of the internet!
I only recently started cooking (my boyfriend has been the one who cooked almost 95% of the time before) and your website has been very inspirational! My New Year’s Resolution is to perfect puff pastry. I’ll be trying it for the first time this weekend! These spices would be great for out kitchen because I’ve always wanted to try cumin!
As the mom-figure in a newly combined family (I have one child, he has three), it has become more and more important to me to have healthy, home-cooked meals as often as possible. My kitchen resolution for 2010 is to have dinner together at the table during the weeknights, with all meals being somewhat healthy (read: no chicken nuggets!) and kid friendly.
My New Year’s Kitchen Resolution: Try one new recipe a week to get out of my cooking rut.
Those are some great prizes! My New Year’s resolution for the kitchen is fixing it. It needs painted and new floors and I have to do it this coming year
My resolution for 2010 is to boldly go in a culinary direction I’ve never been before. To try different cuisines and take on new taste sensations!
What is your New Year’s resolution for the kitchen in 2010?
My kitchen resolution for 2010 is start cooking with real products, get out all the artificial stuff made in a lab.

My News Years Cooking Resolution is to learn (and master) several different non-tomato-based sauces (like cheese sauces used as a topping for veggies or pastas)!
Great idea for a GiveAway!
My 2010 Kitchen resolution shall be to try ONE new never-before tried ingredient per week throughout all of 2010—52 new ingredients, omg!!
My resolution is to conquer my fear of yeast and finally bake bread that is not an embarrassment.
Since I was lucky enough to be a winner in your last give away, please don’t count my comment in the contest entries. Someone else should have a chance to win some Inspired Taste goodies but I did want to share my 2010 kitchen goals.
Happy holidays y’all.
My goal in the upcoming year is to take time to make real food–not frozen meals, not fast food–as inspired by the slow food movement. Forty and fifty-hour work weeks can’t be my reasoning for not taking time to learn new methods in the kitchen and eat well with the future wife I love so much. Thanks for the opportunity!
My new years resolution is to expand my culinary appetite and cooking skills to the Far East, where I might be able to master and enjoy adequately prepared chinese, japanese and korean meals
to cook a turkey!! Happy spicy new year!!
My new years resolution for the kitchen is to learn how to make a pie.
I resolve to eat better on a tight budget.
My resolution for the new year is to learn to how to cook Indian food!
I have two food-related resolutions:
My first goal is to try at least one new recipe a month from the cookbooks in my collection. They’ve gotten a bit dusty over the years as the internet offers so many great, free resources, so either I need to start using them again or send them off to people who will!
The second is to be better about bringing lunches from home. Hopefully the first goal will generate large quantities of tasty dishes that lend themselves well to microwave/toaster reheating…
I’d resolve to cook at least one recipe I’ve never cooked before from every cookbook I own.
I resolve to finally start my own food blog!
