For Ina Garten, good vanilla extract makes all the difference. That's why she makes her own Home Made Extract and then uses it in a showstopping Vanilla Rum Panna Cotta with Salted Caramel. She whips up a batch of Vanilla Shortbread Hearts with a vanilla glaze and bakes her moist and delicious Vanilla Cream Cheese Pound Cake. Finally, a cup of White Hot Chocolate hits the spot.
Ina Garten is fired up and sharing her advice for grilling and barbecuing like a pro. To start, hot coals work their magic on her Tuscan Grilled Cornish Hens, and she amps up the flavor on Foolproof Ribs with Barbecue Sauce. Her flame-grilled Smoky Eggplant Dip features yogurt and mint, and her husband Jeffrey can't resist her Grilled Oysters with Lemon Dill Butter.
Ina Garten is having fun shaking up the classics. She makes Seared Tuna and Avocado Rolls with Chipotle Mayonnaise for a new take on old-school lobster rolls. Pasta is a must, so she gets fresh with Spring Green Spaghetti Carbonara, and Chocolate-Dipped Brown Sugar Shortbread livens up an old favorite sweet treat. Finally, her Outrageous Garlic Bread makes the ultimate comfort carb even better.
Ina Garten's tackling pasta like a pro, first in Crusty Baked Shells and Cauliflower, then in a classic Italian soup, 16 Bean Pasta e Fagioli. She makes a delicious lemony salad of Herbed Orzo with Feta and special guest Mario Batali shares his top three pasta tips. Finally, Rigatoni with Sausage and Fennel takes all-in-one pasta meals to a whole new level.
It's Ina and Jeffrey's wedding anniversary and Ina's got a romantic game plan guaranteed to impress. There's an incredible menu of Crispy Mustard Chicken, Creamy Cheddar Grits, Crispy Roasted Kale and Chocolate Peanut Butter Globs, a perfect alfresco setting and special trip to the vineyard organized by Jeffrey.
