You know, The Goddess has mentioned now and then how much she enjoys condiments…Okay, she tends to go on bit about them. And with good reason. Compound or flavored butters are condiments, too. And this is one of the best. Continue reading

This is a wonderful dish. The onions are just slightly charred, a tad burned, if you will. Turbot is a wonderful fish. It’s just slightly meaty and a bit on the sweet side. It lends itself well to sauces, and this lemongrass-laced sauce is perfect with it. Continue reading

Since so many of us grill more over the summer, I thought I would just pass this “custom” BBQ sauce along to you. This is one of those recipes that is ever-changing. It is intended to be personalized to your flavor preferences, but no matter what, it’s just a great sauce to make ahead or at a moments notice. Continue reading

We just finished exploring the Art Fair in Boca Raton, and we were hungry. So we checked out “BBQ near me”—isn’t technology great? Anyway, less than a mile away was “Mississippi Sweets BBQ Co”. Thanks, Siri…what a find. Continue reading

This is one of those sauces that is as good with pork, as it is with chicken and it’s equally delicious with salmon or shrimp. Okay…so it’s good on pretty much anything. I haven’t tried it on a burger, but I think on a pork burger it could be stupendous. Continue reading

This is a wonderfully flavored rice, with the beans cooked with the rice. It’s pretty AND it’s delicious…win-win! If you’re vegetarian, this can be a main course, but I like to serve it with Jerked Chicken. Continue reading

It’s almost summer, and a New England Shrimp Boil might just be on your menu. And you must have butter with that. Clarified butter, to be certain. This is clarified butter, but with some damn fine additions. Continue reading

Eggs and bacon go together like…well, bacon and eggs! These are really the basic recipe for deviled eggs. The garnish is up to you, but we like bacon, a sprinkle of fresh snipped chives and tonight, a thin slice of a cherry tomato. The Latin Lover will be happy, as he loves deviled eggs. Continue reading

The other day is was lunching at a local restaurant, and their daily special was a pork schnitzel sandwich, topped with their applesauce aïoli. It was really quite a lovely combination, so I decided it was time to explore the rich deliciousness, that is an aïoli. And then there’s the alliteration thing, Applesauce-Allspice Aïoli. What can I say? Continue reading
