Boneless pork chops can easily be overcooked and tough. But, using a technique of searing them and then "poaching" the chops in a sauce of apple cider vinegar, apple cider, brown sugar, a little soy sauce and Dijon mustard, the chops come out moist and tender. The sauce is then reduced to a beautiful, thick glaze. Yum-Fest!!! While shopping at the meat section of my grocery store, I was
Savory and Tender Red Wine Braised Short Ribs
Short Ribs are seared and then slow braised in vegetables, ginger, lemon grass and red wine and herbs. The beef short ribs are tender and very flavorful, and especially good served over polenta. Any leftover sauce can be repurposed into a delicious beef soup. Whenever my husband and I dine out, Braised Short Ribs or Osso Bucco is usually what we catches our interest. For us, there's
Easy Meyer Lemon Limoncello Sorbet
Meyer Lemons are a little bit sweeter than the more traditional Eureka lemons. Whenever our tree presents us with these beautiful lemons, I like to make a sorbet-- which is really just lemon juice, water and sugar. I've added a little limoncello so keep the sorbet from freezing rock hard. It's so refreshing and simple to make. My husband is the real gardener in this family. He's the one
Pork Paprikash with Mushroom and Sour Cream
This pork paprikash "stew" is a quick weeknight dinner, that is delicious served over noodles. The pork is perfumed with paprika and is cooked in a creamy sour cream infused sauce. Chicken Paprikash is a quick, economical and comforting meal that is one of my favorites. One day, I found some frozen pork loin chops in the back of my freezer. Hmmm. Why not make a Pork Paprikash? So, that's
Moist and Delicious Cranberry Almond Pound Cake
This Cranberry Almond pound cake is very moist, and the flavor of almond paste, almond extract and Amaretto will satisfy any palate that loves almond! It's very easy to make, and is terrific with a morning cup of coffee, or any time of day. For as long as I can remember, I've had a love affair with desserts that are flavored with almond. It might be my German roots, but I have a
Sole Almondine, Lemon-Smashed Potatoes and Parmesan Roasted Green Beans
This menu isn't as complicated to make as the title sounds. It's a classic dish of quickly sauteed filet of sole (or Tilapia works) dipped in seasoned flour and egg. A quick pan sauce made with white wine and shallots is poured on top and garnished with toasted almonds. Even those who aren't crazy about fish (like myself) will love this dish. To complete the meal, fresh green beans are roasted and

Shaved Asparagus Salad Succulent Scallops in a Carrot, Orange and Cardamon Sauce is an upscale, restaurant quality dinner you can make at home. For a fancy finish, shaved asparagus in a simple vinaigrette makes a beautiful presentation.

How to Make Homemade Belgian Liège Waffles
A Belgian Liège waffle is made with a buttery brioche dough and dotted with clusters of caramelized pearl sugar. The waffles have a chewy and sweet flavor, with notes of vanilla. These make a perfect snack any time of day. When my son was in first grade, we used to spend time at lot of time at the Border's Book Store at our local shopping center. There was a quiet little man who
How to Make Perfect Slow Roasted Beef
I wanted to find a way to make a roast beef, specifically to slice for sandwiches. This recipe is it! Using a fairly inexpensive cut of beef (eye-round) and roasting it low and slow yielded a flavorful and very juicy roast. This would be perfect for a Sunday dinner as well. I am a huge fan of roast beef sandwiches. I prefer that my roast beef is rare, while my husband prefers medium.
