There are those meals you select knowing you are going to put extra effort into it. You buy the freshest ingredients, dedicate a chunk of time to fuss over it, accept no substitutions, no excuses, you go all-out. Emeril‘s Butternut Squash Lasagna with Italian Sausage and Sage is one of those planned indulgences. I invited [...]
Emeril’s Butternut Squash Lasagna with Italian Sausage and Sage: One-Pot Wonderful
Grilled Sea Scallops With Pasta Rags and Homemade Pesto: Test Kitchen Tuesday
Each week as I review scores of recipes for Test Kitchen Tuesday, I am reminded of the endless possibilities in the culinary world—flavors, textures, temperatures, all waiting to be explored. Like any great adventure, disappointment and thrill are part of the risk and reward. Last week, the Tuscan Garlic Chicken Pasta was a disappointment. However, [...]
Tuscan Garlic Chicken Pasta: Test Kitchen Tuesday
This is one of those recipes I have had tucked away for a long time–anything with six cloves of garlic has promise, right. Pasta dishes are ideal for a quick weeknight meal, use Tinkyada brown rice pasta and it’s gluten-free too. Basil is at its peak right now, available at most farmers markets—I anticipate that [...]
Spaghetti Al Farouk: Test Kitchen Tuesday
Simple Italy is a blog that I follow (yes, it does feed my inner Italian) and when this recipe arrived in my inbox this morning, I instantly found inspiration for Test Kitchen Tuesday. I simply cannot wait to try this dish! It is no secret that we love Italian food, but Spaghetti Al Farouk is [...]
Memorial Day BBQ Menu & Recipes
Of course, you can throw the usual burgers and brats on the grill, but if you’re feeding more than a handful of people burgers can be dry or cold before your guests get one on a bun. BBQ Pulled Pork and Pulled Chicken Sandwiches are an ideal choice to feed a crowd. Easily prepared ahead [...]
Alfredo Sauce: A Classic Canvas
Butter, cream, cheese, are all part of this beloved classic sauce. The interpretations can vary widely, somewhere between bland and flat to overly salty and processed tasting due to fillers in place of real cream. I avoid ordering Alfredo in restaurants for that reason, never knowing which side of the spectrum to expect. I like [...]
Cedar Plank Grilled Chicken
Grilling is more than an occasional summertime excuse for a party around our house—it is a year-round brave-the-weather habit. Over the weekend, temperatures hit the 80° mark here in Colorado and my cedar planks were ready for duty. This recipe was used to grill chicken for Chicken Alfredo and it was amazing with its subtly [...]
Beef Lo Mein [with Gluten-Free options]
This popular takeout dish will make you want to grab chopsticks and dig in, unless of course, a fork is closer. But who needs takeout? With just a little extra care in the prep, this dish comes together quickly and easily with beefy, noodley, tender vegetables in savory perfection. Preparing Beef Lo Mein at home [...]
Spaghetti Bolognese: Ragù Magnifico!
Spaghetti Bolognese is not your average meat sauce; it is a sauce you can spend an afternoon falling in love with as its simmering aroma wafts through the house. I discovered Bolognese while watching Emeril Live years ago and spaghetti has never had a better companion. Over the years, this rich, meaty sauce has won [...]
Test Kitchen Tuesdays: Seafood Lo Mein
It’s Test Kitchen Tuesday, so it is time to add something new to the recipe collection. Seafood Lo Mein sounds so good right now, I am looking forward to trying this recipe I discovered on emerils.com—the sesame oiled noodle cake really piques my interest. Just glancing at the ingredient list, I can tell already that [...]
