Pasta with Butternut-Bacon Cream Sauce with SageIt’s autumn in New England.  Okay, so it’s autumn everywhere, but New England autumns are a Currier & Ives-type of beautiful.  This is The Goddess’s time of year.  There’s that little nip in the air, but no frost on the shrinking, post-Halloween pumpkins just yet.  The flavors of fall are big, bold flavors.  This sauce is a perfect mid-week sauce, but why wait?  Continue reading →

When The Middle Son and The Unbound Reader joined forces, their wedding brunch was catered by The Red Blazer in Concord, NH.  They make a Breakfast Lasagna, that had all of us tripping over each other to get another piece.  We had all moved on from the real reason we were there.  We were all there for the Breakfast Lasagna!  Continue reading →

Neptune’s Shepherd’s Pie

30 Friday Oct 2015

Posted by The Gourmet Goddess in Comfort Food, Gluten Free Option, Main Course, Make Ahead

≈ Leave a comment

Tags

béchamel sauce, cheese, Corn, fish, mashed potatoes, Mushrooms, onion

I was going to call this fish pie, but that seemed misleading; there’s no crust.  And when most people hear “pie” they expect crust.  But most everyone knows that shepherd’s pie is a mixture of meat (in this case, fish) and vegetables topped with mashed potatoes.  And most everyone knows that Neptune was the Roman God of the Sea…hence, Neptune’s Shepherd’s Pie seemed more accurate.  Continue reading →

béchamel sauce, bleu cheese, Celery, Chicken, hot sauce, Onions, pasta

I have a confession.  I’ve never been that big a fan of buffalo chicken wings.  I don’t know why, but I was always more interested in the celery and bleu cheese dressing.  I love bleu cheese; I’m weird that way.  With Super Bowl looming on the not-too-distant horizon, I got to thinking about other possibilities and this is what I came up with…Buffalo Chicken Sauce on Pasta.  Continue reading →

019Scallops are divine, don’t you think?  Sea scallops are these perfect orbs, rich and tasty, velvety on the tongue and Oh! so easy.  I’m seriously not kidding when I tell you they cook in under 5 minutes.  A searing hot skillet, a small smackerel of butter and in 5 minutes you can be sitting down to a terrific dinner.  Continue reading →

198I love leftovers.  I guess there are those that don’t and that’s okay, but I think they are missing out on the possibility of change.  I love change.  With leftovers, you can change the turkey that didn’t make into the mouths of hungry holiday diners, into something else, Continue reading →
