Spaghetti with Meatballs

Blossom Lady

Sep 01, 2020 05:21 AM

Here’s a basic standby you can fall back on for years to come. This is my favorite recipe for meatballs, which aren’t at all hard to make, and a method for simmering them quickly in delicious homemade sauce, piling it all onto freshly cooked pasta, topping with cheese, greens and pepper, and sitting down to a perfect family meal. Start making the meatballs about an hour before you want to eat, to allow time for shaping and browning them and then simmering them in the sauce while the pasta cooks. Or, even ...

Golden Orange Beet Soup

Blossom Lady

Aug 29, 2020 09:09 AM

This super simple creamy roasted beet soup is comforting, nutritious and gluten free. It makes a stunning and satisfying first course for entertaining, or make-ahead healthy lunch. Served either hot or chilled, this soup is a lighthearted response to its heavier cousin, borscht. Give it a whirl, especially if you are looking for more interesting things to do with beets. If you don’t have a zester, you can use the fine side of a cheese grater for the orange zest. Start with 1⁄2 teaspoon of zest and i...

Brooklyn Blackout Cake

Blossom Lady

Aug 28, 2020 08:03 AM

Welcome to the dark side! Blackout cake originated in Brooklyn, at Ebinger’s Bakery, and gets its name from the blackout drills performed during World War II. The whole city would dim its lights as ships sailed to war so that the enemy could not spot them. Just like the original version, this cake is filled and frosted with chocolate pudding and coated in cake crumbs. This cake is loaded with chocolate flavor without being overly sweet, so you can down a hefty slice pretty quickly, even though a slim slice...

White Wine Poached Pears

Blossom Lady

Aug 27, 2020 06:36 AM

Poached pear is the perfect end to any meal. It’s light, simple and delicious, flavorful, but not filling or fussy. It’s just what you would like after hearty dishes, like meat or pasta, and it’s ideal for summer. Most recipes for poached pears call for red wine — and you could use red wine in this recipe — but I think you might appreciate the softness of white wine (for no tannins) and the slight acidity that perks up pears’ natural sweetness. Choose the variety of pear you enjoy most, but pi...

Spaghetti with Mixed Seafood in Spicy Tomato Sauce

Blossom Lady

Aug 24, 2020 06:16 AM

While in Italy pasta is usually served as a first course, in America we got used to eat it as our main dish. With fresh tomatoes and an enticing mix of shellfish, this summery dish is really a meal in itself, needing no more than a simple salad and some fresh fruit for dessert. Hot pepper is called for, but you can decide how spicy you want to make it. Ingredients 1 ½ pounds mussels (675 g) 1 pound small hard-shell clams (450 g) 1 pound squid, cleaned, thinly sliced (290 g) 10 ounces extra-large sh...

Aug 23, 2020 06:56 AM

My friend Laura lives in Vermont, and she sent me the most delicious Vermont maple syrup for my birthday.

Roasted Sea Bass with Fennel, Meyer Lemons, and Cherry Tomatoes

Blossom Lady

Aug 21, 2020 03:27 PM

There is something so celebratory about serving one whole fish, fragrant with citrus and fennel, for everyone to dive into. Any fish on the bone works here—whole red snapper or salmon steaks would also be good choices—but I especially love the sea bass. Set on a bed of fennel and smothered with tart-sweet Meyer lemons and cherry tomatoes, the fish absorbs all those flavors while it steam-roasts in dry white wine. I love the distinctive citrus aroma of Meyer lemons, but you can use regular lemon...

Crunchy Roasted Chicken With Mustard Sauce + Herb Butter

Blossom Lady

Aug 21, 2020 08:57 AM

If you want the crunch of fried chicken without the fuss of cooking big pieces, you have to try this quick, simple recipe. My technique for cutting chicken steaks gives both white and dark meat and makes for a hearty serving. This all-season dish is perfect with simply blanched vegetables. Now it’s the best time to serve it with seasonal veggies. In winter, I usually serve it with broccoli; and in spring – with beans. And the homemade mustard sauce is always a perfect companion here. Ingredients 5 tabl...

Green Cheesy Lasagna

Blossom Lady

Aug 19, 2020 04:40 AM

The first time I made this lasagna was long time ago, when I wanted to surprise my family with something different and delicious. We had loads of zucchini in the garden, frozen peas in the freezer, and green beans in the fridge, so I decided to make a green dinner. And it was a great success and has become our favorite recipe for family meals. It takes about 15 minutes to assemble and thirty minutes to bake, and the combination of green vegetables, cheese and spicy tomato sauce is hard to resist.&nb...

Homemade Reese's Peanut Butter Cups

Blossom Lady

Aug 18, 2020 06:12 AM

I’ve had a Reese’s peanut butter cup obsession for as long as I can remember, and my kids love them, too. Unwrapping individually-packaged peanut butter cup after cup until there is a veritable mountain of discarded orange and black wrappers is their usual post-Halloween ritual. And I decided to find a perfect recipe to cook them at home – healthier and better. You will be surprised, but making your own homemade Reese’s cups only takes about 15 minutes and requires no cooking time at all. Ingredients 1...
