• Braised fennel, celery, onion and red pepper

  • wester on November 02, 2012

    This was actually very simple and very tasty. The reason it didn't get more stars is that the timing was way off - it needed about twice as long as stated, and the onions wouldn't have minded staying in the oven for even longer. I added some fennel seeds as well, which was nice.

• Creamed spinach with jalapeño peppers

  • Bloominanglophile on October 22, 2013

    Rich!

• Cornbread and prosciutto stuffing

  • mjes on September 27, 2021

    A very decent dressing recipe that is just slightly different from the expectations - add a little variety to Thanksgiving without crashing hopes.

• Flourless chocolate cake

  • laurabead on November 16, 2018

    Our favorite cake for passover (or any other time of year). It's rich and dense. Delicious with a raspberry coulis and/or barely sweetened whipped cream.
