Union Square Cafe Brussel Sprout Hash
This was the recipe I made, along with a duck stew, for my parents when Eric and I told them we were getting married. It was a complete Danny Meyer menu and the hospitality worked like a charm. We are still married 16 years later and my sister-in-law requests the hash every Thanksgiving.
Gingered Beer
This (for me) came out of having some really spicy ginger beer laying around in the fridge after a microbeer and microsoda trip in an all day roadtrip taken around Long Island about 15 years ago. It's similiar to a shandy, but not. I like using a Belgian White Ale (that has a hint of coriander in it) to go along with the ginger beer and squeeze a bit of fresh orange or lime juice into the mix also. Feel free to fiddle with the proportions to get it to your liking.
Tangy Brussels Sprout Chips
My sister (Kersh in the Kitch) had Brussels Sprout Chips at a dinner party a few years ago, and being the Brussels lovers we are, we couldn't wait to try it ourselves. My version uses garlic powder and tangy lemon juice for an extra fresh zippy flavor that enhances and complements the chips perfectly!
Brussels Sprouts in Pancetta Cream
You might think this Brussel Sprouts with Pancetta and Cream recipe would make sprouts-haters reconsider, but in fact their taste is concentrated here.
The Irish Godfather - Guinness and Amaretto Cocktail
Ireland meets Italy in this tasty Guinness beer and Amaretto cocktail. The Italian liqueurs add a delicious nutty flavor with a surprising hint of cherry.
Perfect Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts are probably my favorite vegetable. I can't say no to them on a restaurant menu, or in a farmer's market. But it's understandable why some people are just deadset against them - they can be terrible when incorrectly cooked! This recipe plays up the natural flavor of sprouts, while infusing it with the flavor of chicken stock. You can of course substitute water for the stock, but I find it takes the sprouts to a new level. - Hotplate Gourmet
Bacony Brussel Sprouts
We loved the combination of brussel sprouts and pancetta from Babbo... so we set off to make our own version. As someone who hadn't had a brussel sprout in her life until after age 25, this has come to be one of my all-time favorite side dishes!
Irish Car Bomb Float
This Irish Car Bomb recipe contains a little twist: a shot glass filled with Irish whiskey and Irish cream-flavored ice cream is dropped into a pint of Guinness.
Spicy Squash
Chipotle taste makes squash more interesting to folks who aren't fans of mashed vegetables.
Classic French Potato Purée - Extra Smooth
This recipe is my version of the best potato purée I have ever tasted, the classic French purée made by Chef Joël Robuchon with lots of fresh cold butter.
Doce de Abóbora: Sweet Butternut Squash compote with cloves
This doce de abóbora recipe is a dessert/compote that is reminiscent of the smells and tastes of my childhood in Brazil. There are many possible variations.
Apricot Pomegranate Fizz
Delish
Banana Bread
Here is an easy way to use up the bananas on the countertop, or brown ones thrown in the back of the freezer. Don’t overmix the ingredients, and make sure the bananas are very ripe.
Simple Bread Pudding
This recipe is proof-positive that leftover bread can easily be converted to dessert without much work. There’s room for customization here: Consider adding fresh or dried fruit or a combination of spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and cardamom. Bread pudding makes a great brunch dish, served with fresh fruit compote. Or add a handful of chocolate chips before baking for a decidedly more decadent outcome.

Pie Crust
Some people shy away from making pie crusts. Here is a recipe to banish all fear, a simple dough of butter and all-purpose flour, easy to make and dependable as can be. If you plan to make a pie with a top crust (such as apple, cherry or blueberry), double the recipe; when it's time to chill the dough, divide it in half and shape into two disks to put in the fridge. The dough will also keep for 3 months in the freezer, if you want to stash a few disks there. Defrost in the fridge overnight.
Green Beans With Ginger and Garlic
Here is a recipe for fresh green beans, boiled just until barely tender and bright green, then tossed in a pan with minced garlic and ginger. The beans can be cooked a day ahead, leaving nothing more to do before the meal than to assemble everything over high heat.
Creamy Macaroni and Cheese
There are two schools of thought about macaroni and cheese: Some like it crusty and extra-cheesy (here’s our recipe), while others prefer it smooth and creamy. But most people are delighted by any homemade macaroni and cheese. It is light years ahead of the boxed versions. This creamy version has one powerful advantage for the cook: There’s no need to preboil the pasta. It cooks in the oven, absorbing the liquid from the dairy products.
Baked Mac and Cheese
Macaroni and cheese may seem an easy proposition. Noodles, cheese. But the secret to this creamy dish with a crunchy and crisp top is American cheese. This is no place for fancy cheeses or fancy noodles. Leave the whole-wheat penne and artisanal orecchiette in the cupboard and bring on the elbow pasta.
Roasted Brussels Sprouts With Garlic
This recipe for roasted brussels sprouts from Mark Bittman is our most popular version and is perfect as a Thanksgiving side dish. If you haven’t yet figured out a go-to recipe, this simple preparation is the answer. It results in sweet caramelized brussels sprouts that will make a believer out of anyone.
