CEVICHE! ~ Costa Rican Style

CEVICHE! ~ Costa Rican Style by Amos Miller

My buddy, Ed, of Puerto Rican descent, spent his time in the Air Force in Central and South America. Ed's favorite dish: ceviche! He tells endless tales of trying ceviche, which is seafoods 'cooked' in nothing but citrus juice. Ed always said that the ceviche he would eat by the gallon, if he could get it, was that he had in Costa…

Flavorful Grilled Shrimp

Flavorful Grilled Shrimp by John Spottiswood

This is a classic grilled shrimp recipe originally from Craig Clairborne's NYT cookbook, then adapted by Ina Garten, and then finally perfected by me. :-) Seriously, this is a wonderful staple to have in your pantry of recipes. You can serve this over pasta (which we did the other night), as an appetizer with a variety of dipping…

Scallops in Scallion Nests

Scallops in Scallion Nests by John Spottiswood

This is an attractive, flavorful dish, ideal as the first course for an elegant dinner. The scallions, which are cooked briefly in boiling water and served with a mustard sauce, are fantastic. I adapted this recipe from Jacques Pepin. While I loved the presentation, and everyone at our dinner party seemed to enjoy it, I wasn't…

Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Sauce

Coconut Shrimp with Spicy Mango Sauce by Nancy Miyasaki

This was a real treat. It reminded me of delicious passed appetizer I had at a wedding reception a few years ago. The spicy sauce (not too hot) combines wonderfully with the slightly sweet coconut shrimp. Could be served equally well as an appetizer or entree.

Classic Crab Cakes | Old Fashioned Crab Crab Cakes

Classic Crab Cakes | Old Fashioned Crab Crab Cakes by Amrita

For seriously tasty crab cakes,we need just crab and a little seasoning. 90% crab and 10% seasoning is what I'm talking about.Do not be tempted to add anything else okay. Adding potato,peppers,ginger,garlic and other fillers totally ruin the delicate flavour of crab cakes. So please please please skip it.PLEASE. If you…

Baked Stuffed Clams

Baked Stuffed Clams by B Innes

These make a great appetizer, or serving a couple they make a nice dinner, and occasionally to make them truly elegant I top them with Hollandaise sauce for a decadent treat. You can get fresh clams and open them yourself and save the shells to reuse, or use large scallop shells which are easier to find, or even place in ramekins,…

Mussels Manhattan

Mussels Manhattan by Cecelia Heer

A classic Manhattan is a fine drink, and our home bar is always well-stocked with bourbon, sweet vermouth, and bitters during the winter months (all other months, too). I adapted this recipe from executive chef Larry Tressler of Holland House Bar and Refuge in Nashville. The mussels are simmered in bourbon, sweet vermouth and…

MUSSELS WITH FENNEL

MUSSELS WITH FENNEL by Cecelia Heer

After all of that tequila in the summer, it's time to return to the bulky sweaters and put away the flip-flops. Actually, we don't wear flip flops and probably never will. Our fall mussels dish contains fresh fennel, which offers a liquorish taste and is perfect this time of year. Of course, the wine to drink with this is a…
