Frozen apps are an impromptu party-thrower’s best friend. When you’ve got your hands full with the main event, who has time to even think about pre-dinner nibbles? And when the game is on and you’ve got a hungry crowd, having a few boxes of ready-to-heat snacks in the freezer is the best insurance against serving a bag of half-stale chips. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/the-best-archer-farms-frozen-appetizers-at-target-shopping/

Boeuf bourguignon is so much more than just another beef stew. This classic French dish, made so popular by a certain Ms. Julia Child, is the kind of stew that moves you from one level of home cooking to the next. The aroma alone — the deeply savory scent of onions, slow-cooked beef, and red wine — is enough to make your eyes roll skyward and your knees go weak. Make boeuf bourguignon once and you’ll wonder why anyone ever bothers making anything else. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/recipe-slow-cooker-boeuf-bourguignon-recipes-from-the-kitchn/ While many of us can only ever dream of own owning a KitchenAid stand mixer (and a pantry to keep it in), Maria, who blogs with her husband at Two Peas and Their Pod, is lucky enough to have eight (yes, eight!) — and a giant pantry to store them all in. If you’re impressed now, just wait until you see the rest of this magical setup. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/you-have-to-see-this-ultimate-bakers-pantry-organizing-for-bakers/ It’s a common Thanksgiving tradition that certain people are entrusted with specific dishes. One person always does pecan pie, another always brings Rice Krispies treats, and only the very best person is allowed to handle the stuffing. A Thanksgiving assignment might be a person’s favorite dish, something they invented, or just a dish they’re particularly good at. In Sarah Jessica Parker’s family, she always makes the peas. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/sarah-jessica-parker-shares-her-secret-recipe-for-peas-pop-culture/ Every single homemade chocolate truffle is a masterpiece.

You won’t even need a stove — just a little cream and some good-quality chocolate will give you fail-proof chocolate truffles at home. Here’s how to do it. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/how-to-make-foolproof-chocolate-truffles-the-easiest-simplest-method-cooking-lessons-from-the-kitchn/ With Thanksgiving behind us and the rest of the holiday season still to come, it seems like everywhere we turn there’s another baked good or sweet to be made (and consumed). None, however, are as beautiful as the pies from Lauren Ko. Her Instagram has gained overnight success, and for good reason! Are you following along? via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/these-are-the-most-beautiful-pies-youll-ever-see-on-instagram-food-media/ My favorite thing about going home to visit my parents: Every morning, my dad makes lattes for everyone. This ritual started almost 20 years ago, when they were visiting friends in Switzerland who only drank espresso drinks. They fell in love with the latte, and over the years my parents have acquired five different moka pots, all different sizes, for different-sized groups. Now that they’re retired, my dad makes lattes for himself and my mom to savor every morning. And he makes them for me whenever I’m home. Out of curiosity, I reached out to the team at Bialetti, a major player in the moka pot manufacturing game, to find out the proper way to clean a moka pot. Turns out, it’s both easier and harder than you’d think. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/how-to-clean-a-moka-pot-how-to/ Although making pancake batter isn’t difficult, it doesn’t always make for a speedy morning.

It can’t be just any bacon, though — former royal chef Darren McGrady says Prince Harry loves his bacon extra-crispy, and even has a very specific way he likes it cooked. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/prince-harry-has-the-secret-to-extra-crispy-bacon-pop-culture/ We all have that friend who seems to spend more time on the road than she does at home. You know who we’re talking about — the coworker who always uses all of her vacation time, or the friend who has more frequent flyer miles than everyone else you know combined. You might not always be able to hit the road with her, but you can give her something for the holidays that’ll help her think of you while she’s at home or away. Here are 10 great gifts for your most well-traveled friend. via WordPress https://jonathanwilhoite.wordpress.com/2017/11/29/j-is-for-jetsetters-shopping/ |
