A number of kitchen staples have helped me get through the last almost 10 months of working and parenting at home. They include quesadillas (with black beans from my Instant Pot), sourdough focaccia and Thai iced tea.
The iced tea was especially crucial on long summer afternoons at home with my toddler, when I needed the caffeine fix but wanted something refreshing I could drink quickly. But there's at least one other thing I love about Thai tea: It's the perfect showcase for one of my favorite convenience ingredients, sweetened condensed milk.
