Fast & Easy Dinner: Pork Chops With Apples
The classic pork chops and applesauce go sophisticated with this recipe. Instead of bone-in pork chops and pureed apples, it employs boneless pork loin and whole Granny Smith apples.
The apples are sautéed until soft and the pork is topped with a simple pan sauce.
Killer App: Savory Pumpkin Puffs
With it's flaky, crispy, and buttery layers, I never tire of puff pastry in a savory appetizer preparation. I always make sure my freezer is stocked with the easy-to-manage dough because it's ideal for impromptu entertaining. Roll it with some herbs and prosciutto and you've got pinwheels.
Fasy & Easy Dinner: Turkey Burgers With Mustard Sauce
One can never have too many turkey burger recipes: they're simple, versatile, and crowd-pleasing. The secret ingredient in this variation is honey mustard. It not only flavors the patties, but when combined with mayonnaise, it makes for a creamy sauce that slathers the bun.
Can You Cut the Mustard?
We love mustard on YumSugar. Party admits to sometimes eating it with a spoon, and I even make my own.
So what might seem like a silly national day of observance has us pretty excited: this Saturday, Aug.
Noteworthy Nibbles — July 28-Aug. 4
Although I can't make it to the official celebration in Wisconsin, I'll be observing National Mustard Day this weekend. But I'm really salivating over the photos from the Maine Lobster Festival, and I'm curious to try a so-called Rocky Mountain oyster at the appropriately-dubbed Testy Festy. What looks most appetizing to you?
Yellow Mustard: Love It or Hate It?
Mustard is quite possibly my favorite condiment. I love Dijon mustard so much that sometimes, when I'm making salad dressing or a cheese sandwich, I will lick the knife. However, my affection for mustard does not extend to Dijon's vibrant, all-American cousin, yellow mustard.
Make Your Own: Ketchup and Mustard
With Fourth of July right around the corner and the plethora of red, white, and blue foods, it dawned on me I wanted to try and make my own condiments for the holiday. Essential to slather on burgers and hot dogs, ketchup and mustard are surprisingly simple to make. Both require very little time in the kitchen, but the mustard seeds need two days to soak in vinegar and water.
Fast & Easy Dinner: Creamy Asparagus Pasta
Asparagus is the star ingredient in this delightful pasta dinner. Don't be afraid of the whole milk in the recipe, it's necessary to make the sauce thick and creamy.
Lemon zest, tarragon, and grainy mustard ensure that it's not overly rich but fresh and flavorful.
Noteworthy Nibbles — Mar. 24-31, 2009
Spring is in the air, and that's evident with the number of fun food events going on this week that pay homage to everything from rum to crawfish.
We can't wait to taste our way through the year's best wines at Wine Enthusiast's annual Toast of the Town, and taste tequila cocktails made by SF's top mixologists at the Nirvino Mixology Contest.
What events will you be eating your way through this week?
Noteworthy Nibbles — Mar. 17-23, 2009
This week, the country's gone crazy for wine, cheese, and chocolate. If you're in Northern California, you may find yourself faced with the tough decision of choosing between three of life's greatest indulgences. We'll be getting cocoa butter and sugar high at the San Francisco International Chocolate Salon, and saying cheese at California's Artisan Cheese Festival.
