What to Cook

sauce for salmon :: Article Creator LETS' EAT AWESOME SAUCE Saying goodbye to summer with a final cookout over Labor Day? Yours won't be the only grill sending the tantalizing aroma of chicken or beef through the bushes and over fences this holiday weekend. Labor Day is the second-most popular day for grilling after July Fourth, according to the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association. So chances are, if you're getting together with family or friends for an end-of-season party, someone will be hunched over a charcoal or gas grill preparing lunch or dinner. Which begs the question: Which of the world's countless sauces is best to slather on burgers, ribs, steak and/or chicken? Everyone has their favorites, of course, but there are a few golden standards every cook should have in their repertoire to enhance the flavor of grilled foods. Hamburgers and hot dogs, for instance, call for special sauce — that sweet and piquant mix of ...

lemon chicken :: Article Creator Ways To Use Rotisserie Chicken For Your Next Easy Dinner Spicy Chili Crisp Noodles Genevieve Ko/Los Angeles Times/TNS Much as I love to cook, I am unwilling to feel as though I am working inside the oven while trying to get dinner on the table. I'm all about keeping the cooking to a minimum but still prefer to make my meals at home rather than eating out during the work week. My solution is this compromise: rotisserie chicken. One of my favorite go-tos, rotisserie chicken is a terrific starting point, and one chicken can provide several meals. It is available at most local grocery stores, though quick-service restaurants such as Pollo a la Brasa, California Chicken Cafe and Zankou Chicken often do a better job and offer the convenience of having your bird ready and waiting for you to pick up if you call ahead to order it. Yes, you can also order some side dishes and bring home a full meal, but my fr...

guacamole recipe :: Article Creator Holy Guacamole Nachos Colin Hanks, star of the TV show Life in Pieces and director of the documentary All Things Must Pass: The Rise and Fall of Tower Records, expresses his undying love for guacamole in these nachos. "There is nothing I do not like about guacamole. I could live off of chips and guac," he says. "In fact, I have tried on numerous occasions. I just want to put it on everything." Indeed, these nachos are not only served with Hanks's favorite guacamole recipe (page 139), but they're also layered with that recipe's deconstructed ingredients—tomato, red onion, avocado, cilantro, lime and his secret weapon, pureed chipotle peppers in adobo, which lend a smokiness to the guacamole and distribute the heat better than the more common chopped jalapeño or serrano peppers.Slideshow: Outrageous NachosReprinted from ¡Buenos Nachos! by Gina Hamadey.

yellow cake recipe :: Article Creator Kvæfjordkak: Norway's Best Cake Made with vanilla sponge, meringue, almonds, custard and whipped cream, Norwegians love this cake so much they nicknamed it "the world's best cake".

russet potatoes :: Article Creator The Easiest Mashed Potatoes You'll Ever Make The secret to the perfect texture of these easy mashed potatoes is a combination of uber starchy russets and creamy-dense Yukon Gold potatoes. Mixed together, they yield mashed potatoes that are simultaneously fluffy and creamy. (Alternatively, you can swap both for sweet potatoes, if you prefer.) Half-and-half adds a little extra richness to this recipe, but whole milk would also work. For a smoother texture, you can pass the potatoes through a ricer instead of using a masher. To make this classic side dish in advance, simply cook the potatoes and mash them with butter only. Chill the mixture until ready to use and then gently reheat. Warm up the half-and-half separately and gradually add it into the warm potatoes before serving. Delicious kept plain, there are also a few easy ways to spruce up these spuds. For tangy mashed potatoes swap out one cup ...
