This is the best of multiple worlds blended like the crossroads of America. It will be a repeat family menu item. I’m still working on the sandwich form (recently I made piadina to see how that would work) but it really does not matter. That’s not due to our new homebound reality. it’s simply because if you like Frank’s hot sauce this will tickleContinue reading “Buffalo Phili Cheese Turkey Sandwich”

Oven Ribs
Although I roast plenty of chicken, babybacks feel like a special occasion. And I have no idea why. They are beyond EZ. In the winter or an apartment you don’t even need a grill to finish them (which is legitimately delicious come summer btw). This is just a long winded way of saying, make someContinue reading “Oven Ribs”
Homemade Mayo (not Fallen Chocolate Cake)
The dog ate my cake (and survived both the chocolate and me). So here’s a picture of the mayo. And the dog. I didn’t intend to make mayo, but ignored a golden rule for making hard boiled eggs (fresh eggs, what was I thinking?! See link below) and wrecked the whites late Friday night duringContinue reading “Homemade Mayo (not Fallen Chocolate Cake)”

Eat Your Veg
It's the “It” vegetable of the day, but don't let that deter you from making this dish at home. I will also say – unless you're meat free, ordering cauliflower as a main while dining out is a big fat…well, you know. It's a pretty big markup for little investment. Do it if the chefContinue reading “Eat Your Veg”
For Goodness Sake, It’s 13 Degrees Blueberry Crumb Cake
I'm trying to save the last piece of blueberry crumb for my air warrior, but it's tough. This time, I got it perfect and I'm a harsh baking critic. The recipe calls for 45-50 minutes baking. If it feels a little soft @ 45, leave it in for 5 more. Mine took 50 exactly. Also,Continue reading “For Goodness Sake, It’s 13 Degrees Blueberry Crumb Cake”
Any Night Stuffing!
Why wait for Thanksgiving? Give this savory confection a chance. It took less time than I thought (mostly in the oven) and gave me the benefit of feeling virtuous for not chucking some stale ciabatta. I highly recommend a gravy sidecar. 4 cups stale bread, 3/4 inch cube. 10-15 minutes in a 300 degree ovenContinue reading “Any Night Stuffing!”

Inspiration For The Salad Bowl
I'm thinking you can slavishly follow this recipe, or pick and choose among your fave ingredients. If you're living grill-less, skip the charring of the vegetables and use them raw. Whatever you do, toast the almonds and overload on the ricotta salata. Just a thought…I've got your back 🙂 Click here for the recipe. EatContinue reading “Inspiration For The Salad Bowl”
Savory Tomato Jam
The secret ingredient for gooey tomato delicousness is butter. I'd heard that before but now I know for sure. You can use farmers market fresh tomatoes for this project, but my were sort of fit for a makeover. I also threw in 1/2 of an heirloom chunked up and left over from lunch ratherContinue reading “Savory Tomato Jam”
