Salmon Baked in Foil
This salmon dish is so tastey and the tomatoes add an awesome flavor to it, which accents it perfectly. Made this for dinner last night and it was excellent. It was gone in a flash. It’s healthy, tasty and my family really really loved it.

4-Hour Lamb
The flavors of the lamb make this recipe worth repeating. The lamb indeed fell apart, no carving needed. It was extremely flavorful, especially with the reduced sauce. I wished added more garlic because it was simply delicious with the meal.

Mussels in White Wine
The house melled SO good. It was just like in a restaurant. I don’t know how you could say anything bad about it. This is such a flavorful broth and you can taste the saffron.

Parsnip Puree
This recipe is decadent to say the least. The parsnips come out smooth and creamy.

Chicken Corn Chowder
I continue to try to convince mom not to purchase pre-cooked food since the sodium content is high. Even my sister is encouraging her to use my cooking skills to prepare any type of food she would like to have. As mom was ready to grab a container of chicken corn chowder I mentioned to mom that I can prepare chowder and it will be lower in sodium content. Here is a quick and easy way to prepare Chicken Corn Chowder.

Chicken with Forty Cloves of Garlic
This recipe is wonderful. Amazingly, there is no overwhelming flavor of 40 cloves of garlic; they really mellow out beautifully in this recipe. I doubled the recipe for the sauce because my family loves extra sauce. Finishing the sauce with cognac and cream makes it better. My whole family loved it and they went back for seconds.

Thanksgiving Dinner
It’s 12 P.M. and I need to clean the turkey, wash and let it dry before I do the prep work. In the meantime I can go for a swim and just relax before I start preparing the turkey. This year I am preparing the way Ina Gartner, Tyler Florence and my version in preparing the Roast Turkey.

Salmon with Wild Mushroom Asparagus Tart
Seafood lovers know that fish skin might be the best part when cooked right. Family/ friends know me by now that I don’t like to waste anything. Basically crispy-fried salmon skin is like salmon rinds as opposed to pork rinds. This method makes the skin come out crackly crisp. Make sure the skin is completely free of scales. Do this by scraping it with the edge of a sharp knife. Rinse any scales away. Pat the skin completely dry with paper towels. The skin must be dried out as much as possible before cooking.

Asparagus and Mushroom Tart
You can serve it as an appetizer or main course with salad. I opened a bottle of Tamayo 2006 Shiraz and could not believe how it paired so well with the mushrooms, thyme, creme fraiche and Gruyere cheese. I will definitely be making this dish again.

Ina’s Pastitsio
I followed the recipe and found it to be absolutely delicious and it was AMAZING! I love the different layers of flavor in the tomato meat sauce. The lamb and ground beef combination was fantastic…when mixed together, the lamb taste is not overwhelming at all. The bechamel and parmesan develop a great crust as the dish bakes. I love this dish and Ina’s recipe produced an amazing dish. I will be making this dish again.

Fried Catfish Steak
When I shop at 99 Ranch I never know what I’m going to purchase. They have so many types of fresh fish to choose from! I found catfish steaks and can’t wait to prepare it. I love fresh catfish and prepare immediately with my favorite recipe fried catfish.

Jamaican Jerk Rub
Jamaican jerk rub and wanted to recreate it. The ingredients for Jamaican jerk rub is pretty easy and not time consuming. I have to rely in my sense of smell and see if I can create this wonderful rub. Jamaican jerk rub should be used for grilling chicken, pork, beef, and vegetables
