Chili Cheese Dogs Who doesn’t love chili dogs? My kids go nuts for these. To them, they mean a casual supper on the back porch on hot summer evenings when mama just doesn’t want to cook. We usually have these with chili leftovers, but I’ve definitely been known to pop open a can of chili for this supper too. They are so easy, they practically don’t even require a recipe. But if you’re looking for a simple meal idea, this is your lucky day!...
Sweet Potato Pie vs. Pumpkin Pie Sweet potatoes are sweeter than pumpkins. Though the pies are usually made in the same way with eggs, cream or evaporated milk, and pie spices, sweet potato pie tends to be lighter, airier, and well, sweeter. Sure, you could swap sweet potatoes for pumpkin cup-for-cup in your favorite pumpkin pie recipe, but pumpkin is lower in sugar. This means pumpkin pies need to have more sugar to compensate....
This coconut lime rice has a subtly sweet and nutty flavor from the coconut, well-balanced by the acidity of lime juice. I mix it with a healthy helping of fresh cilantro for added brightness. What I love about this rice is that it’s almost as fast as cooking plain white rice, but it stands on its own as a side dish with all of these additional flavor elements. Jasmine Rice Provides the Perfect Balance of Textures In testing, I found that basmati rice yielded a slightly drier texture than I preferred....

Today, it’s one of the most reached for spices in Middle Eastern, Indian, Latin American, and North African cuisines....
This is especially true of tips to nip food waste in the bud. Just when I think draining poached eggs on slices of stale bread is new, I realize the famed newspaper columnist Heloise did it first. Her decades-old tips read as a primer to any modern-day person who’s credo is reduce, reuse, recycle. The Heloise MO was more about thrift and mindfulness than being green, but the outcome was the same: a safer, happier, less wasteful kitchen....

Life is busy. Leftovers are nice. Eating leftovers wasn’t at the top of my “to do” list when I was a single 20-something. Now that I’m feeding a family of four, and doing so three times a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, I welcome the opportunity to double up a dish so I can freeze some for later or pack it up for lunches the next day....

Yep, I’m back with another barbecue creation. This time it’s a dark, rich sauce loaded with smoky flavor. I designed this to go with red meat, preferably beef, venison or bison, but I bet it’d work with pork or poultry, too. The two key ingredients in this sauce are chipotles in adobo and liquid smoke. Liquid smoke, which is essentially distilled smoke collected from moisture added while burning hickory — and it’s hickory smoke I use here — is available in most supermarkets....
As a kid I always thought that green salsa was made from green tomatoes, but actually it is made with a distant relative of the tomato from Mexico, the naturally tart tomatillo (pronounced “toe-mah-TEE-yo”). A tomatillo looks like a little green tomato covered with a husk. It’s not in the same genus as tomatoes, though both are in the nightshade family (along with eggplants and peppers). Salsa verde is really easy to make from scratch, all you need are tomatillos, onion, jalapeño, lime, and cilantro....

Chunks of silky white chocolate help you ease into the holidays, while warm and slightly spicy hints of brandy tickle your tongue. Plus with cranberries in full season, taking advantage of these sweet-tart garnet gems just makes sense. With or Without Brandy We soak the dried cranberries first in brandy for extra flavor. Any brandy will work great with these; Cognac, Armagnac, and Kirschwasser (a cherry brandy) are excellent. If you want, you can forego the brandy altogether and just soak the cranberries in water to plump them....
This particular salsa is popular in the north, or Sonoran part of Mexico, because of its use of Anaheim green chiles. Starting at age seven it was my job to make salsa for our family, which I did at least once a week for ten years. This is the recipe we used, the only difference between now and the mid-60s is that now you can get some very good canned “fire-roasted” tomatoes, perfect for salsa making....
And for me, the reigning waffle in the land is the yeasted Belgian waffle. Characteristically taller and thicker with deeper pockets than the average waffle, the Belgian version is the ideal vehicle for syrup, whipped cream, or summertime berries. What’s the Difference Between Belgian and Regular Waffles? Belgian waffle batter is traditionally leavened with yeast (like this recipe) but there are recipes out there that just use baking powder and soda....
