Ina Garten is finding new ways to turn the volume up on American classics. She starts by combining coffee chipotle chili powder and red pepper flakes for a spicy dry rub on Grilled New York Strip Steaks, and she cools things off with a Crunchy Iceberg Salad with Creamy Blue Cheese. Ina uses buttermilk for foolproof Fried Chicken and takes a clever shortcut with Peanut Butter and Fudge Ice Cream Sandwiches. For cocktail hour, she mixes up Dark Rum Southsides, and Chef Bobby Flay shows how to make a very grown-up Vanilla Caramel Bourbon Milkshake.
Kelsey is all about bringing heavenly herbs into your kitchen. She will show you how to transform those fresh herbs sitting on your sill or tucked away in your fridge un-used into a slew of delicious dishes. Her Every Herb Lemon Pesto blends six of her favorite aromatics into a delicious dressing. Next, those same herbs are used for a fresh Salad With creamy and milky Burrata. Then, Kelsey will show you her essential tips for the perfect, crispy, herby and cheesy Chicken Roulade and a robust Potato Salad coated in homemade Bacon Vinaigrette. And to wash it all down, Kelsey will stir up Raspberry Limeade infused with lavender and mint that's sure to refresh any palate.
Alcohol is not just a fun meal pairing, it's also a super flavorful ingredient to cook with! Mary Berg shakes things up with Wine Can Chicken that's cooked with a cocktail of dry white wine, lemon and herbs inside the bird and served with a wilted green, creamy sauce. For another boozy meal, Mary's Roast Pork with Red Wine Grape Sauce uses a dry red to complement the garlic and grainy mustard marinade. For dessert, Mary cracks open a cold one to craft a Chocolate Stout Cake. The bitter beer combined with chocolate is a recipe for delicious decadence. She tops it off with an Irish cream buttercream and a drizzle of salty-sweet Beer Caramel Sauce. Cheers!
