Creamy Mandarin Orange and Almond Dessert Soup
I enjoy creating my own recipes which are usually a twist on a classic recipe in some ethic culture. Since my husband was born and raised in China I am partial to Asian cooking and have developed many recipes over the years that use the foods and flavors of China.
