It is time to play 'soft ball', and we're not talking the sport - we're talking Creole candy. When the recipe calls for your concoction on the stove to reach the… |

Crystalized GINGER candy by FoodessaThis pungent, intense root of GINGER has now been integrated in my kitchen for at least 10 years or so. Admittedly at first, I could only stand to eat a hint of it in my food. It really was an acquired taste for me. Now, it seems, I just can't get enough of it! So much so, that I wanted to start making my Homemade Candied… |

Lime & Mint Jelly by Salad FoodieTart and zesty, this jelly makes a nice gift for the holiday host or hostess. Lime is the predominant flavor, with a “hint of mint.” Serve it with crackers and cream cheese, or put it out when you serve lamb or other meats. Use it as you would marmalade, on toast or biscuits. If you like lime, you will love this lip-smacking sweet… |

Make-over Spaghetti & Shrimp Salad by Salad FoodieOriginally mayo was the dressing for this salad recipe from a friend long ago, but I decided to give it a make-over. Adding a few new veggies and seasonings, and subbing an oil-based dressing, made it lighter and brighter. The recipe makes enough for a crowd or potluck, so cut down by one third or two thirds if needed. |

Cranberries with Jezebel Sauce by Amos MillerIf you don't care for the tart tang of cranberries - try this. My dear friend, Gail, serves this dish her way frequently and everyone likes it because it is sweet & spicy and just tangy enough. A great condiment. I've modified Gail's recipe a tad and share it with you. Cranberries will no longer be a Thanksgiving side dish. This… |

Easy Manhattan Clam Chowder by B InnesAlthough fresh is best, it is a chore to open and chop so many calms and in many places they are not easy to find, so using canned ingredients is certainly acceptable. I think that the two secrets to a great Manhattan clam chowder are a great clammy taste and a lot of thyme. This recipe will give you both with easy to use items… |

Fideo (Cut) Spaghetti and Shrimp Salad by Salad FoodieFideo is a thin spaghetti cut into 3/4-inch pieces used primarily for soups, or if the spaghetti is broken in half or less it is used for certain Mexican dishes. Of course you can break regular thin spaghetti in small pieces yourself for this salad, but using the prepared pasta is so much simpler and ideal. This unique pasta salad… |

Ham, Peas & Pasta Salad by Salad FoodieA nice choice for a summer cookout or picnic, this pasta salad can be made up to a day ahead for convenience. My pasta choice for this is ditalini, a small pasta often used in soups (this can be hard to locate but Barilla sells a one pound box.) Or substitute your own small pasta FAV such as elbows or shells. |
