Recipe of the Week - Peach Melba Sorbet

Recipe of the Week - Peach Melba Sorbet by Dennis Kraus

We had a quick trip to NJ this weekend, about 40 hours in all. Just enough time to have one family meal.

As my mother-in-law’s favorite is Chicken Piccata we had that with some homemade noodles and a Caesar…

This is one of my absolute favorite berry desserts and comes from Tony Bourdain and Les Halles Restaurant in NYC.

We grow blueberries all season long at Walnut Ridge Farm, so there are always opportunities to try…

NEVER throw day-old rice away! Next time you have that extra-large Chinese take out and you have some of that white rice left over, you have the base of a fabulous rice pudding, New Orleans-style!

Black Cherry Crumble

Black Cherry Crumble by Amos Miller

I originally saw Paula Deen make her version of this dish and I came up with a couple of really good modifications which folks have liked when I served it for dessert. I believe this is an improved recipe. I made this with gluten free (and lactose intolerant) diners in mind, but you can feel free to subtitute regular flour where…
