Do you remember the Sweet Spanish Rice we made a couple weeks ago? Well, here’s an easy variation that you can do on it, creating a completely different taste sensation. I like this type of rice for shrimp. If you buy the pre-cooked shrimp, they can just be thrown in on top of the rice […]
Me neither. But ok, Bon Appetit swears you’ll love it! I’m willing to give it a try :-)

This spice rub and sauce is great for other cuts of steak too, but I particularly like it for flank steak, where you have a lot of surface to soak up sauce, due to the thin slicing technique. (See my post on Flank steak techniques to refresh your skills!)

You won’t believe the ingredient list for these pizzas: whole sliced tomatoes, uncured pepperoni, fresh herbs, fontina cheese, creamy goat cheese…the list goes on! Five varieties of these pizzas are available so far, two of them shown here, both of which are delicious […]
Oh, how delicious this pesto is! You can make it in a snap, starting with a good quality packaged basil pesto, or you can make it totally from scratch if you’ve got the time, using our Basic Basil Pesto recipe. It’s fun to do that in the spring and early summer when fresh basil is […]
As I said yesterday, we didn’t have a single bad food experience the entire time we were in Italy, but this beautiful little restaurant that we found near the Colosseum was by far the best! Found at 195 Via Cavour, L’Archetto is charming, and the food is amazing. Look for it if you’re […]
This is a great rice dish to have with sausage, especially a mildly sweet or savory sausage instead of spicy hot ones. The very best rice you can use for this dish is the Spanish variety called Bomba. Italian rice called Arborio can be substituted if you can’t find Bomba.
If you’d prefer to have this […]
