Michael Symon shares his special holiday recipes to make Thanksgiving delicious. A flavorful, moist Mezcal-and-Maple-Roasted Turkey in Cheesecloth is the main event, accompanied by Pap's Ham and Dumplings, a recipe from Michael's grandfather. Plus, Strawberry Cheesecake with Pretzel Crust is the perfect sweet ending.
Ina Garten has all the bases covered when it comes to Tex-Mex entertaining. She makes a light and airy Tres Leches Cake with Berries and Make Ahead Whipped Cream, and her crowd-pleasing Pork Posole is a spicy, all-in-one main course piled high with fixings. Fiesta Corn and Avocado Salad is an easy first course that also works as a side dish or salsa. Finally, Ina raises her glass to cocktail hour with the fire and ice of frosty Jalapeno Margaritas, shaken like a pro!
The Kitchen hosts celebrate the spring season with a most-colorful feast. Sunny Anderson shares her Easy Baked Lemon Sole with Spring Onions, a beautiful main course. Geoffrey Zakarian makes a vibrant Spring Radish Salad, and Jeff Mauro adds his Italian Easter Pie to the table. Then, Katie Lee makes Spice-Rubbed Leg of Lamb with Harissa Yogurt Sauce, followed by decorative dips -- Geoffrey's Smoked Salmon Spread and Katie's Golden White Bean Dip. Of course, the table wouldn't be complete without "egg-squisite" decorating ideas with Natural Food Coloring and Glitter Eggs.
Known for their Los Angeles pop-up dinners, Jake and Jussie Smollet are debuting their seventh pop-up experience at the famed Hollywood Improv Comedy Club. Using Jake's trip to Italy as inspiration, the brothers create a showstopping three-course meal. With a Zucchini Carpaccio appetizer and Lemon Sorbet dessert, they go fancy for their main course, Homemade Tarragon Fettuccine and a Vodka Cream Sauce, topped with lobster. It's a tough crowd of patrons and fans at the Improv and creating a good meal is no laughing matter.
