BBQ Sauce 101

BBQ Sauce 101 by myra byanka

This is a delicious on its own basic bbq sauce that you can easily tweak. To experiment, divide it in 4 parts, and add different ingredients to each part. I frequently make this basic sauce and just add a 1/2 cup of chipotle in adobo sauce to it. Yum!

Buttermilk Banana Bread

Buttermilk Banana Bread by Nancy Miyasaki

I've made dozens of different types of banana bread, and this is one of my favorites. Our kids devoured it! My oldest told me "this is the best banana bread you've ever made, Mom." That's high praise from a 9th grader!

Milk Dud Cookies

Milk Dud Cookies by Katherine Martin

I have made a lot of desserts in my day (obviously) but all my housemates said that these were the BEST that I have ever made. The flavor also reminded me of Milk Duds (hence the name). They are amazing straight out of the oven because the caramel is so gooey, but you can also zap them in the microwave for 5 seconds to get the…

Lemon Rosemary Fig Jam

Lemon Rosemary Fig Jam by Amos Miller

The figs are ripe. sweet and the season is short. Fresh rosemary, lemon zest and juice marry perfectly to create a jam to be eaten with bold cheeses as an appetizer. Little work to create, long, slow cooking time and a couple of sterilized jars will carry this treat well into the Winter - provided you can avoid eating it all…

Buttermilk Banana Bread

Buttermilk Banana Bread by Salad Foodie

Does the world need another banana bread recipe? I thought not, until one day I had not only ripe bananas to use up but also buttermilk. It was a culinary match made in heaven. I love the sublime texture and moistness that buttermilk imbues. This is a more tender grain than most nutbreads so I highly recommend making it ahead and…

Zippy Tomato Soup

Zippy Tomato Soup by Sara Gray

Wow! When my mother-in-law, Margie, introduced me to her Zippy Tomato Soup, I became an instant convert! And that's saying a lot because up until then, I was not a big fan of the red soup. But that has changed and you'll see why when you try it too. You can use this soup as an appetizer or starter for any party or gathering.…

Grilled Whole Salmon Indonesian Style

Grilled Whole Salmon Indonesian Style by John Spottiswood

This is an excellent and flavorful way to cook fish that I adapted from the Barbecue Bible. I had a large, whole salmon (not a smaller snapper or pompano as recommended), and was hoping the flavor would be strong enough to impact the Salmon. Boy was I pleasantly surprised! The fish came out delicious and my guests all asked me to…
