These days I suspect many people are more likely to eat wasabi, a Japanese condiment with a similar effect, than horseradish; I just don’t see it around that much anymore. That said, horseradish sauce, made with prepared horseradish and either whipped cream or sour cream, tastes great with steak or roast pork. Here’s a sour cream version. Make sure you’re buying prepared horseradish and not horseradish sauce. If you’re unsure, look at the ingredients list....
For example, I’m totally unopposed to cooking up a really good bag of frozen French fries. Or tater tots. I’m also completely smitten with making my own oven-roasted potatoes, and I also love serving boiled potatoes slathered with olive oil or butter (or a bit of both, let’s be honest) and some fresh herbs. Sous vide potatoes are the best of both worlds: Buy fresh potatoes at the store and cook a big batch sous vide, then you can eat them right away, freeze them for later, or keep them in the fridge and reheat them throughout the week....

Great news—this grilled cheese party is open (and useful) to all experience levels! For Memorable Grilled Cheese, Good Cheese Matters The first big tip? I don’t recommend Velveeta.

Visually, segmenting the fruit will make your salad, dessert, or finished dish more beautiful, and from a practical standpoint citrus fruits are easier to eat with a spoon or fork once freed from their protective coating. Suprême is the technical name referring to the technique, but whether you suprême citrus or segment it the goal (and result) remains the same: jewel toned, juicy fruit that is easy to eat! It’s simpler to suprême an orange, grapefruit, or pomelo than you might think....
Spirits That Go Beyond the Basics Once you have the basics down and are ready to build out your home bar even more, consider investing in one or more of the following bottles: Aged rums and other styles like Rhum Agricole are significantly more complex and nuanced than most starter white rums, able to substitute for darker spirits or elevate standard rum recipes. Flor de Cana’s anejo rum is a great start, and affordable, while Rhum JM’s agricoles are more of an investment, though certainly worthy....
I’m feeling a little starstruck at the moment - one of my blogger buddies - Ren Behan - has her new cookbook out today! I was sent an early copy to review (please note, this isn’t a paid review, and all opinions are my own), and wow! So many scrummy recipes! Amongst about a hundred other things, I was tempted to make her strawberry, honey and pistachio pierogis (which grace the front cover), but then I spotted the Hunter’s stew - the Polish national dish often known as bigos....

Ice Cream Cake Doesn’t Involve Cake At All Although the name suggests cake, this ice cream cake doesn’t actually have any cake in it! It is composed of layers of ice cream with some fun goodies in between, made in a cake pan and frosted like a normal cake would be....
When you serve it with toppings of crushed tortilla chips, chopped onions, sour cream, and fresh cilantro, you get the flavors of a crispy taco in every bite. Easy Taco Soup in the Instant Pot I prefer to use my 6-quart Instant Pot pressure cooker to make this soup (and just about everything else!). It will cook the soup fast, and also keep it warm for up to 10 hours if I need to make dinner earlier in the day....
Keeping taco seasoning low carb If you truly want a low-carb taco seasoning, you need to make it yourself. Most of the taco packets you’ll find at the store contain unnecessary fillers like corn, corn syrup, sugar and silicon dioxide. Even though these ingredients are in small amounts, they increase the carbs in the seasoning unnecessarily. What you need to make keto taco seasoning Just a handful of seasonings that are (hopefully) already in your pantry:...
What is Lemongrass? Lemongrass, grown in Asia, Australia, and Africa, encompasses a variety of plants in the grass family. Some of those varieties are used as herbs in both culinary and medicinal applications. Flavor: Bright, citrus Often found in: Southeast Asian dishes, like beef rendang or tom yum soup Substitutes: 2 stalks of lemongrass = zest of 1 lemon. Not an ideal substitute, but will work in a pinch! Lemongrass can grow to several feet; it is tall and stalky with a vibrant green hue....
Today we present to you a red version, with a tomato-based, clam-juice infused sauce, dressed up with some fennel and a little dash of anise liqueur. What Does Fennel Taste Like? Why the licorice note from the fennel and anise? Trust me. It just goes well with tomato sauce and seafood. Funny thing, my dad hates, and I mean truly despises, licorice. But he gobbles down Italian sausage like there’s no tomorrow, and the defining spice in sweet Italian sausage is fennel seed....
If you love vanilla sponge cakes and custard, you are going to be as obsessed with this cake as I am. It looks like it’s been carefully layered with three different components. But it’s not! You just pour one simple batter into a cake tin, pop in the oven, and this is how it comes out!! There is no special ingredient nor any tricky technique. The batter is made pretty much like a traditional vanilla sponge cake, it is just much thinner....
I know there are a gazillion Mexican chicken recipes out there in this big-wide-cyber-world. I’m throwing my hat into the ring because I think this is a little different to most. The thing that {I think!} distinguishes this chicken recipe from many others is the sauce. The smoky, mildly spicy red sauce that is the end result of a handful of ingredients that are thrown into the slow cooker. See?...
Spaniards will probably turn their nose up at this dish. A real Paella is loaded up with seafood and made with homemade fish stock. I only make that on special occasions. I especially love to make a huge pan of it on the outdoor grill because it’s a great way to feed a lot of people. And it’s something a little different to the usual steaks on the grill :)....
The result? Flavour that sticks to the tomato rather than sliding off like dressing. Try it. I think you’ll love it! My favourite tomato salad This is a tomato salad so good, it’s exceptional made even with just-okay winter tomatoes like the ones I used yesterday when re-checking this recipe before publishing it today. So imagine how incredible it is with ripe, juicy, seasonal summer tomatoes!!! (In case you’re wondering why I’m sharing a summer recipe in the middle of Aussie winter, it’s because half the readers of my website are in the northern hemisphere enjoying summer right now....
Salad Niçoise hails from Nice, on the Mediterranean Sea, though like so many foods we enjoy here of French origin, has changed a bit to adapt to our tastes. Prepping Niçoise salads that are served in America are typically served on a bed of lettuce and include cooked green beans and potatoes. According to our Paris insider, the Niçoise salads there are all made with canned tuna. Depending on the establishment here, I’ve had them either with canned or with freshly grilled tuna....

Chopped oats provide these pancakes with plenty of texture and a satisfying nutty, earthy taste. Oatmeal pancakes are sure to please any palate but those sensitive to gluten will be especially appreciative of this breakfast because there is no wheat flour. Just make sure your oats are labeled “gluten-free!” A food processor makes quick work of this breakfast by blending whole oats into oat flour. Just set aside a small amount of oats to add to the final batter and grind the rest in your food processor (5 seconds!...
