Grapefruit Blossom Aperitif
This fragrant grapefruit blossom aperitif cocktail recipe is a combination of a kir-the classic French combination of wine & blackcurrant syrup.
Fried Mush
I realize that the name does not sound promising, however ... when we were kids my Mom and my Stepdad had a cool old VW camper van, you know the kind with the mini fridge and the fold down table, and a bunk area in the back? They would pack the van and we would go camping, first in Baja and around California, then later in New Mexico and Colorado ... Mom always packed her iron skillet and everything needed for fried mush, which is somehow better eaten outdoors by a morning campfire but still delicious in my kitchen just now ... Mom also instructed me not to go messing with the recipe as I am wont to do, but rather to cook it as it is meant to be cooked. My Mom is an artist ... I didn't inherit her talent for creating visual art but I do think that my inherited creativity comes out in the kitchen. For more on Mom's art check out : www.marysegal.com - aargersi

Lebanese Potatoes With Cilantro Sauce (Batata Harra)
Batata Harra is a Lebanese dish of twice-fried potatoes. The crisp, golden cubes are served with a sauce of cilantro, garlic, and olive oil. Philippe G. Massoud, the executive chef and co-owner of Ilili in New York, says it’s “a poor man’s dinner, eaten with eggs, or with tomatoes and scallions.”

Squashed Potatoes
This squashed potatoes or smashed potatoes recipe uses Susan Spungen's potato tostones technique but with a twist. These potatoes are the perfect side dish!

Cardamom Chai
As a purebred teas drinker, I was skeptical about Cardamom Chai and its maelstrom of spices and blast of sugar. I tried this recipe and it became a favorite.

Lemon Rosemary Fizz
Very few ingredients come together for a delicious afternoon drink, best enjoyed in a garden, or at least while thinking of one! The rosemary simply syrup keeps well in the fridge if you have extra. - LindsayMaitland

Status Quo
A friend of mine at the Reef in Washington, D.C. concocted this for me one night last spring and I've never looked back. Almost every time I order this, no matter where I go, I convert a skeptical bartender or fellow bar-goer. My buddy Patrick at Bar Pilar (also in Washington) ingeniously suggested I substitute ginger beer for the ginger ale; I would recommend the same if you happen to have that handy. But ginger ale works just as well. While I have specified Angostura bitters here, that just reflects my personal preference. There are many varieties of bitters available, but I find the Angostura really amplifies the citrus in the vodka and the ginger in the mixer. But whatever your choice, use it judiciously--a little goes a long way.

Two Peas with Preserved Lemon & Mint
I was making a spring-themed dinner for a friend who is watching her fat intake and came up with this easy side dish that combines very flavorful ingredients that really highlight the peas. - gluttonforlife

Grilled Asparagus with lemon and garlic
This is a personally created recipe, though the basic flavors are pretty standard. It has been a success at many a barbecue.

Poppa Hy's Matzoh Brei
My Poppa Hy was a fabulous dancer, a dress designer, a card shark, a wonderful grandfather, and he made hands down the greatest matzoh brei ever. Saturday morning breakfast was the highlight of every weekend visit. He would come home from temple, change his clothes make coffee in their old fashioned percolator and slowly and methodically , start making matzoh brei. We would sit at the table waiting for each pancake to arrive, cut into 8 perfect slices. I like 3/4 of mine with salt, pepper and cottage cheese, and the last with wedge with maple syrup, my brother goes for maple syrup and blueberries. Poppa Hy had a magic pan which is currently in my cousins possession, though that is in negotiations.

Rose-scented Mexican Hot Chocolate
Since my friend brought me back a Molinillo and some Abuelita (Mexican Chocolate), I've been looking for an excuse to make some hot chocolate. The addition of dried Persian rose petals gives it a subtle fragrance and a slightly eastern flavour.

Red Bell Pepper-Walnut Dip (Muhammara)

Pureed Roasted Parsnips and Butternut Squash w/ Creme Fraiche
The winter squash and parsnips at our local markets have been so flavorful and juicy in the past few months. I've been using them a lot. I needed a strong tasting vegetable dish for testing a stock recipe a few weeks ago, so I naturally decided to use some parsnips I had on hand. I happened to have a butternut squash, too, so I put them together. The combination of spicy and sweet is heavenly, especially when the squash is richly caramelized. To take the edge off, while giving this brightly hued combination a luxurious feel, I stirred in some creme fraiche right before eating. A few grains of the nicest finishing salt I have was all it needed. Perfection in a bowl. Mmmmmmm. Enjoy!!

Savory Toasted Pine Nuts
These tasty toasted pine nuts make a nice alternative recipe to nuts, for use in salads, on sauteed greens, or in savory cookies, crackers or pastries.

Salsa Verde
Danny Mena, the Mexico City native who is a chef at Hecho en Dumbo, described a good salsa as being “poignant” with heat when he spoke with Julia Moskin in 2010. This recipe for his salsa verde employs a good number of chiles — anywhere between eight and 12 — alongside a couple of pounds of tangy tomatillos. Ms. Moskin described it as “a rounded, tomatillo-based trickle of concentrated flavor with Serrano chiles.” This cooked sauce is ready quickly, and just as good as a table sauce as it is in a larger main, like chilaquiles.

Lemon Lime Margaritas
This lemon-lime margarita recipe uses less tequila and more Cointreau than the standard margarita which made us think the drink might be sweet, but it's not.
Milk and Honey
If I’m trying to relax, a mug of warm milk always seems to do the trick. So does liquor, but this honey and milk recipe is a more virtuous non-alcoholic option.

Beer Ice Cream Float
In this Beer Float recipe I paired creamy coffee ice cream with Pipeline Porter, a dark, complex beer made with freshly roasted 100% Hawaiian Kona coffee.

rainy day ginger bourbon tea
i just made this up yum.. while baking corn bread ( recipe coming) (mild honey or turbinado sugar is best )

Tzatziki with beets and mint
Interestingly beets are a great substitute for the classic cucumber in this dish. I have had great success serving it as a side dish for fish such as cod or tilapia.

Super Garlic Parmesan Bread
For this delicious, buttery garlic parmesan bread recipe, I like to use the French loaves over baguettes because you can cut them into generous pieces.

Poor Man's Kombucha
This drink has the vinegar-y tang of kombucha, without the cringe-inducing price tag. Of course, the ultimate poor man's kombucha would be to make your own, but this is faster and less work, and has a charm all its own.
Hippie Popcorn (With Nutritional Yeast And Soy Sauce)
In this Popcorn recipe, melted butter, which is perfection in itself, is infused with lightly-toasted garlic. Soy Sauce & Nutritional Yeast give a shot of umami.

Sunchoke Chips
These sunchoke chips can be whipped up in minutes. This unique recipe with an artichoke alternative has such a unique taste, it will surely be a success!
