Finding Home Through West African Food and Cooking - The New York Times

Image
In her new monthly column, Yewande Komolafe returns to the food of West Africa to examine how it shaped her cooking, and her idea of home. There was a time, just a couple of years ago, when I would invite two dozen strangers over to my apartment for dinner. Twice a month, I would cook and serve dishes like fish pepper soup, seasoned with up to 10 different spices; fork-tender goat, braised for hours in a fiery red obe ata; baobab granitas; and lemongrass coconut soup over springy tapioca pearls — all in an effort to connect with the food I grew up eating in Lagos, Nigeria. I have revisited those memories in the last few months, amused at what I once thought were the necessary logistics of serving four courses to a group of lively diners — timing the dishes, finding places for coats, getting the bar ready, to say nothing of today's face shields, temperature checks and social distancing. And, although I was consumed with those details at the time, they were far from the whole picture...

Recipe: Roasted Broccoli on Polenta with Toasted Hazelnuts - Minneapolis Star Tribune

Image
Roast Broccoli on Polenta with Toasted Hazelnuts Serves 4. Note: Allow about a 1/2 pound of broccoli per person. The golden polenta makes a lush creamy bed for the flavorful roasted broccoli and toasted hazelnuts. This recipe works equally well with cauliflower or Brussels sprouts. On its own, roasted broccoli makes a wonderful side dish or appetizer. To toast the nuts, spread them out on a roasting pan and toast in a 350-degree oven until they smell nutty and begin to brown. If the peel on the hazelnuts is tough, turn the nuts into a clean dish towel and rub until some of the brown flakes off. From Beth Dooley. ...

Overnight Oats with Figs Recipe - Today.com

Image
Chef notes I love this recipe because it is so simple, healthy and delicious. Hands down the best set-it-and-forget-it recipe out there! Technique tip: Warming your almond milk will make the oats even softer. Swap option: Use any dairy or nondairy milk you like; add bananas, toasted nuts or seeds, or shredded coconut; use any seasonal fruit or jam — for example, peaches, strawberries, mangoes, pineapples — instead of figs. Preparation 1. In a small saucepot, lightly heat almond milk, agave, salt and vanilla. Whisk to combine. 2. Add 1 tablespoon chia seeds to each of 4 glass jars. Add 1/2 cup rolled oats to each jar. 3. Divide warmed almond milk mixture evenly (about 1/2 cup each) into each jar. 4. Cover securely with lid and set in the refrigerator overnight. 5. When ready to eat, garnish with your fresh figs. Adblock test (Why?)

The One Costco Rotisserie Chicken Secret You Have To Know | Eat This Not That - Eat This, Not That

Image
Oh, how I do love a juicy Costco rotisserie chicken. It's my favorite way to get a delicious protein for dinner with minimal effort, and especially helpful when you're prepping meals for the week. But my least favorite part of buying a Costco rotisserie chicken is having to hack at the meat in order to get all of it off the bone and onto a plate. It's the messiest experience, and certainly not one I look forward to. Until, of course, my eyes were opened to this brilliant Costco rotisserie chicken secret that completely changed my life. Instead of taking a knife to the juicy chicken breast and slicing, or digging at the bits of chicken meat still in the bones, all you have to do is make one simple move to ensure easy dissembling of the rotisserie chicken. Before doing anything else, remove the wishbone in the back of the chicken and the breasts will easily come right off. When I first heard this secret, I was in complete denial that it could actually work. After ye...
