Roast Goose: Two Recipes (Plus, What To Do With a Smoked Goose)
Pssssst, hey you! Your goose is cooked!
Mwahahahahahaha.
Wait. Make that geese.
I've been waiting for weeks to be able to say that. (It's the little things. Such a dork, I know.)
This is my first experience cooking...

How to Cook King Crab
OK, so that's sort of a trick title.
"How to Reheat King Crab" would be more accurate. In the U.S., almost all the King Crab you'll find in stores is already cooked. (It's caught, cooked,...
Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus Bundles with Sage Infused Sour Cream
See, I do eat vegetables. (Granted, they're almost always wrapped in some kind of pork product, but still.)
Asparagus, even! Some folks would say it's not possible. When I was a kid, I hated asparagus...
Restaurant-Style Prime Rib Roast
Prime Rib: It's not just for Christmas dinner. I'll make this whenever I can get my paws on one at a good price (or the rare super sale). It's a great excuse to have a party. In fact, if you're sick of ham on Easter, consider giving Roast Beast it's day in the (springtime) sun. This is a restaurant technique that’s practically guaranteed to produce a moist, juicy, evenly cooked roast beast. And it couldn’t be simpler.
Brown vs. White Eggs: What’s the difference?
What's the difference between brown eggs and white eggs?
Ask your grandmother, and I almost guarantee that she'll make a strong case for one—or the other.
But honestly? Aside from shell color, there's not really much...
Roasted Scallops Wrapped in Prosciutto
I'm pretty sure I'd be tempted to eat almost anything if you wrapped it in bacon or prosciutto. This is my take on the classic appetizer, bacon wrapped scallops. This recipe swaps in prosciutto, bacon's paper thin, salty cousin, which practically guarantees that your scallops will always come out of the oven wearing a crisp little coat.
Shrimp Cocktail
I get a lot of questions about how to properly cook shrimp and seafood.
In a lot of cases, fresh seafood is at its best when it's prepared simply, enhanced by a few ingredients and...
Baked Brie with Walnuts and Preserves
Baked Brie should win some kind of prize for Most Impressive Looking Appetizer that Took Almost No Work to Prepare. This is a great appetizer to throw together when you have unexpected guests. Once you have a wheel of brie (the little ones are just fine), you can put it together with stuff from the pantry (frozen puff pastry, nuts, jam).
Crispy Fried Goat Cheese
Be still my heart. I think I would eat these every day if I could. It's definitely my new favorite munchy type thing. These h'ors d'oeuvres are really easy to throw together on the fly. The outside crust is unbelievably crunchy and flavorful. The inside cheese is warm, creamy, and really smooth. The combination makes for a killer app.
