Seasoning is key to a good pâté. This recipe may seem to have a lot of salt, pepper and spices, but the flavours mellow as the pâté cures. Serve with Dijon mustard, baguette slices and cornichons for an authentic French experience.
We've tweaked the classic French dish by turning it into a hearty soup that's faster and easier than the traditional braised recipe. If you don't have redskinned potatoes, substitute with yellow-fleshed spuds.
This is a favorite among my friends... I serve it just about every time we get together. Very easy to make and delicious!
Citizens of Porto are known throughout Portugal (and, indeed, Europe) as “tripe eaters.” Porto was home to the Portuguese navy and, for most of the 18th century, an important port for the British navy. Porto supplied the ships with huge quantities of salt beef, leaving the city with only the trimmings and innards, which evolved into this famous dish. The ingredient list might look daunting, but it's actually easy to prepare – it just requires lots of time and lots of pots. You can simplify it by eliminating some of the traditional meat ingredients. You can also substitute the calf's or cow's foot with veal shank. Tripe lovers will probably want to increase the tripe by up to double the amount. Porto-Style Tripe is always served with white rice.
This twist on an old favourite brings new life to a simple Caesar salad. Using mayonnaise instead of a raw egg makes an easy instant dressing.
This is a warm soup and is lower in fat with the use of Condensed Milk.
This is my favorite recipe when company comes. Many of the steps can be done a day or two ahead of time which leaves you more time with your guests.
Fragrant, sweet cloves add rich, spicy flavour to this simple rice dish. Rinsing the rice removes any excess starch and guarantees a fluffy result. Serve with lime wedges and a dollop of mango chutney.
